We study the geometric and dynamical structure induced by the return map associated with domains in the class \(\mathcal{O}_{C}\). This map, defined through a geometric round-trip between the convex core and the outer boundary, generates a…

The geometry of the Heisenberg group acting on the plane arises naturally in geometric topology as a degeneration of the familiar spaces $\mathbb{S}^2,\mathbb{H}^2$ and $\mathbb{E}^2$ via conjugacy limit as defined by Cooper, Danciger, and…

We study the tropical version of the contraction morphism $\mathcal{T}$ between moduli spaces of stable and pseudostable curves. By promoting $\mathcal{T}$ to a logarithmic morphism, we obtain a piecewise linear function between the…

The boundary of the convex hull of a compact algebraic curve in real 3-space defines a real algebraic surface. For general curves, that boundary surface is reducible, consisting of tritangent planes and a scroll of stationary bisecants. We…

We study a class of optimization problems including matrix scaling, matrix balancing, multidimensional array scaling, operator scaling, and tensor scaling that arise frequently in theory and in practice. Some of these problems, such as…

We study a class of smooth torus manifolds whose orbit space has the combinatorial structure of a simple polytope with holes. We construct moment angle manifolds for such polytopes with holes and use them to prove that the associated torus…

We investigate the topology and geometry of compact submanifolds in space forms of nonnegative curvature that satisfy a lower bound on the sectional curvature, depending only on the length of the mean curvature vector of the immersion. We…

We establish a local model for the moduli space of holomorphic symplectic structures with logarithmic poles, near the locus of structures whose polar divisor is normal crossings. In contrast to the case without poles, the moduli space is…

In the first part Busemann concavity as non-negative curvature is introduced and a bi-Lipschitz splitting theorem is shown. Furthermore, if the Hausdorff measure of a Busemann concave space is non-trivial then the space is doubling and…

In Part I we gave a polynomial growth lower-bound for the number of nodal domains of a Hecke-Maass cuspform in a compact part of the modular surface, assuming a Lindel\"of hypothesis. That was a consequence of a topological argument and…

In a previous work [J. Chem. Phys. 155, 244111 (2021)], we found counterexamples to the fundamental Hohenberg-Kohn theorem from density-functional theory in finite-lattice systems represented by graphs. Here, we demonstrate that this only…
