Using a new estimate for the Peng-Terng invariant and the multiple-parameter method, we verify a rigidity theorem on the stronger version of Chern Conjecture for minimal hypersurfaces in spheres. More precisely, we prove that if $M$ is a…

We consider contact foliations: objects which generalise to higher dimensions the flow of the Reeb vector field on contact manifolds. We list a number of properties of such foliations, and propose two conjectures about the topological types…

Whitehead aspherical conjecture says that every connected subcomplex of every aspherical 2-complex is aspherical. By an argument on ribbon sphere-links, it is confirmed that the conjecture is true for every contractible finite 2-complex. In…

We show that every quasiconformal contact foliation supports an invariant metric and characterise such foliations by the dynamical property of $C^1$-equicontinuity. We prove that a generalisation of the Weinstein conjecture holds for…

We extend the Heegaard Floer homological definition of spectral order for closed contact 3-manifolds due to Kutluhan, Mati\'c, Van Horn-Morris, and Wand to contact 3-manifolds with convex boundary. We show that the order of a codimension…

In this paper we study holomorphic Legendrian curves in the standard holomorphic contact structure on $\mathbb{C}^{2n+1}$ for any $n\in\mathbb{N}$. We provide several approximation and desingularization results which enable us to prove…

Thomassen's chord conjecture from 1976 states that every longest cycle in a $3$-connected graph has a chord. This is one of the most important unsolved problems in graph theory. Let $H$ be a subgraph of a graph $G$. A vertex $v$ of $H$ is…
