This note shows that the three theorems presented in J. Math. Anal. Appl. 556 (2026), 130199, whose proofs, in their present formulation, are purely formal, follow from elementary calculus.
A short note on bounds on distance to variety of a point in terms of the Taylor coefficients at the point.
Sharp bounds are given for solutions to the minimal surface equation with vanishing boundary values over domains containing sectors of opening bigger than pi.
The aim of this article is to give a rather extensive, and yet nontechnical, account of the birth of the regularity theory for generalized minimal surfaces, of its various ramifications along the decades, of the most recent developments,…
We introduce and study a generalized concept of boundedness of a subset of a normed vector space with respect to a cone, which is defined as lower boundedness of the images of the underlying set through all the positive functionals of the…
Using appropriate notation systems for proofs, cut-reduction can often be rendered feasible on these notations, and explicit bounds can be given. Developing a suitable notation system for Bounded Arithmetic, and applying these bounds, all…
A very interesting problem in the classical theory of minimal surfaces consists of the classification of such surfaces under some geometrical and topological constraints. In this short paper, we give a brief summary of the known…
For all orientable closed surfaces, we determine the minimal dilatation among mapping classes arising from Penner's construction. We also discuss generalisations to surfaces with punctures.
The aim of this short note is to present an elementary, self-contained, and direct proof for the classical Lebesgue decomposition theorem.
This article is an English translation of Japanese article "Musubime to Kyokumen", Math. Soc. Japan, Sugaku Vol. 67, No. 4 (2015) 403--423. It surveys a specific area in Knot Theory concerning surfaces in knot exteriors. In version 2, we…
We consider partitions of the edge set of a graph G into copies of a fixed graph H and single edges. Let \phi_H(n) denote the minimum number p such that any n-vertex G admits such a partition with at most p parts. We show that…
In this paper we provide a Bonnesen-style inequality which gives a lower bound for the isoperimetric deficit corresponding to a closed convex curve in terms of some geometrical invariants of this curve. Moreover we give a geometrical…
For any irreducible representation of a surface group into $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{C})$, we show that there exists a pants decomposition where the restriction to any pair of pants is irreducible and where no curve of the decomposition is…
This is a very brief report on recent developments on the Dirichlet problem for the minimal surface system and minimal cones in Euclidean spaces. We shall mainly focus on two directions: (1) Further systematic developments after…
In this note, we consider Szemer\'{e}di's theorem on $k$-term arithmetic progressions over finite fields $\mathbb{F}_p^n$, where the allowed set $S$ of common differences in these progressions is chosen randomly of fixed size. Combining a…
The problem of calculating exact lower bounds for the number of $k$-faces of $d$-polytopes with $n$ vertices, for each value of $k$, and characterising the minimisers, has recently been solved for $n\le2d$. We establish the corresponding…
Large twist-angle grain boundaries in layered structures are often described by Scherk's first surface whereas small twist-angle grain boundaries are usually described in terms of an array of screw dislocations. We show that there is no…
Zariski decompositions play an important role in the theory of algebraic surfaces. For making geometric use of the decomposition of a given divisor, one needs to pass to a multiple of the divisor in order to clear denominators. It is…
In this note we introduce a new technique to answer an issue posed in [7] concerning geometric properties of the set of non-surjective linear operators. We also extend and improve a related result from the same paper.
This note surveys some classical results and recent developments on the interplay between lower curvature bounds and the isoperimetric problem. It is based on mini-courses given at the European Doctorate School of Differential Geometry…
