Computing the topology of an algebraic plane curve $\mathcal{C}$ means to compute a combinatorial graph that is isotopic to $\mathcal{C}$ and thus represents its topology in $\mathbb{R}^2$. We prove that, for a polynomial of degree $n$ with…
We show the existence of toric resolution tower for an irreducible curve singularity which is explicitly described by Tschirnhausen polynomials. We deduce for a smooth affine plane curve from its topology restrictions for its singularity at…
Asymptotic solutions are derived for inhomogeneous differential equations having a large real or complex parameter and a simple turning point. They involve Scorer functions and three slowly varying analytic coefficient functions. The…
We introduce a reduction from the distinct distances problem in ${\mathbb R}^d$ to an incidence problem with $(d-1)$-flats in ${\mathbb R}^{2d-1}$. Deriving the conjectured bound for this incidence problem (the bound predicted by the…
We study the asymptotic behavior of the Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev invariant associated with the square of the $n$-th root of unity with odd $n$ for a Seifert fibered space obtained by an integral Dehn surgery along a torus knot. We show…
Given a connected cobordism between two knots in the 3-sphere, our main result is an inequality involving torsion orders of the knot Floer homology of the knots, and the number of local maxima and the genus of the cobordism. This has…
In this paper we prove a sharpened asymptotic for the growth of analytic torsion of congruence quotients of $\SL(n,\R)/\SO(n)$ in terms of the volume. The result is based on bounds on the trace of the heat kernel, allowing control of the…
A knot in the 3-sphere in genus-1 1-bridge position (called a (1,1)-position) can be described by an element of the braid group of two points in the torus. Our main results tell how to translate between a braid group element and the…
Tusn\'ady's problem asks to bound the discrepancy of points and axis-parallel boxes in $\mathbb{R}^d$. Algorithmic bounds on Tusn\'ady's problem use a canonical decomposition of Matou\v{s}ek for the system of points and axis-parallel boxes,…
The preservation of ambient isotopic equivalence under piecewise linear (PL) approximation for smooth knots are prominent in molecular modeling and simulation. Sufficient conditions are given regarding: (1) Hausdorff distance, and (2) a sum…
We consider the Dirichlet-to-Neumann mapping and the Neumann problem for the Laplace operator on a torus, given in toroidal coordinates. The Dirichlet-to-Neumann mapping is expressed with respect to series expansions in toroidal harmonics…
Generalizing the well-known relations on characteristic functions on a plane to the case of a one-dimensional regular surface (curve) with compact support, we establish implicit equations for these functions. Introducing an approximation,…
We introduce a systematic method to solve a type of Cartan's realization problem. Our method builds upon a new theory of Lie algebroids and Lie groupoids with structure group and connection. This approach allows to find local as well as…
Given the ensemble of random Gaussian Laplace eigenfunctions on the three-dimensional torus (`3d arithmetic random waves'), we investigate the $1$-dimensional Hausdorff measure of the nodal intersection curve against a compact regular toral…
A curve has the increasing chord property if for any points $a,b,c,d$ in this order on the curve, the distance of $a,d$ is not smaller than that of $b,c$. Answering a conjecture of Larman and McMullen, Rote proved in 1994 that the arclength…
Generically, a fully measured elasticity tensor has no material symmetry. For single crystals with a cubic lattice, or for the aeronautics turbine blades superalloys such as Nickelbased CMSX-4, cubic symmetry is nevertheless expected. It is…
We study the integral expression of a knot invariant obtained as the second coefficient in the perturbative expansion of Witten's Chern-Simons path integral associated with a knot. One of the integrals involved turns out to be a…
The famous Erd\H{o}s distinct distances problem asks the following: how many distinct distances must exist between a set of $n$ points in the plane? There are many generalisations of this question that ask one to consider different spaces…
We reveal a relationship between the colored Jones polynomial and the A-polynomial for twist knots. We demonstrate that an asymptotics of the $N$-colored Jones polynomial in large $N$ gives the potential function, and that the A-polynomial…
Let $(S,H)$ be a general primitively polarized $K3$ surface. We prove the existence of curves in $|\mathcal O_S(nH)|$ with $A_k$-singularities and corresponding to regular points of the equisingular deformation locus. Our result is optimal…
