Given an affine variety X and a finite dimensional vector space of regular functions L on X, we associate a convex body to (X, L) such that its volume is responsible for the number of solutions of a generic system of functions from L. This…
We consider a nonstandard odd reduction of supermatrices (as compared with the standard even one) which arises in connection with possible extension of manifold structure group reductions. The study was initiated by consideration of the…
The main objective of this study is to understand how geometric hyper-ideal circle patterns can be constructed from given combinatorial angle data. We design a hybrid method consisting of a topological/deformation approach augmented with a…
We prove a common extension of Bang's and Kadets' lemmas for contact pairs, in the spirit of the Colourful Carath\'eodory Theorem. We also formulate a generalized version of the affine plank problem and prove it under special assumptions.…
This paper contains a generalization of the convex ideal case of the Thurston-Andreev theorem when the genus is greater than 1. The heart of the paper concerns taking formal angle data on a surface and ``conformally flowing'' this formal…
We present an extension of Dunwoody's theory of tracks and use it to prove an analogue of the annulus theorem for hyperbolic groups.
We consider the problem of realizing hyperbolicity cones as spectrahedra, i.e. as linear slices of cones of positive semidefinite matrices. The generalized Lax conjecture states that this is always possible. We use generalized Clifford…
The study of graph discrepancy problems, initiated by Erd\H{o}s in the 1960s, has received renewed attention in recent years. In general, given a $2$-edge-coloured graph $G$, one is interested in embedding a copy of a graph $H$ in $G$ with…
We show that many normal subgroups of the braid group modulo its centre, and of the mapping class group of a sphere with marked points, have the property that their automorphism and abstract commensurator groups are mapping class groups of…
We introduce a new class of fractal circle packings in the plane, generalizing the polyhedral packings defined by Kontorovich and Nakamura. The existence and uniqueness of these packings are guaranteed by infinite versions of the…
Alexandrov's Theorem states that every metric with the global topology and local geometry required of a convex polyhedron is in fact the intrinsic metric of a unique convex polyhedron. Recent work by Bobenko and Izmestiev describes a…
"V - E + F = 2", the famous Euler's polyhedral formula, has a natural generalization to convex polytopes in every finite dimension, also known as the Euler-Poincar\'e Formula. We provide another short inductive proof of the general formula.…
Let $X$ be a two-sided subshift on a finite alphabet endowed with a mixing probability measure which is positive on all cylinders in $X$. We show that there exist arbitrarily small finite overlapping union of shifted cylinders which…
In this paper we give a more geometrical formulation of the main theorem in [E1] on the inverse problem for the second order hyperbolic equation of general form with coefficients independent of the time variable. We apply this theorem to…
In this paper, we develop a new index theory for manifolds with polyhedral boundary. As an application, we prove Gromov's dihedral extremality conjecture regarding comparisons of scalar curvatures, mean curvatures and dihedral angles…
A classical theorem of Wendroff shows that one may reconstructs a sequence of orthogonal polynomials on the real line from two non-constant polynomials of consecutive degrees whose zeros strictly interlace on the real line. In this note we…
We apply techniques from symplectic geometry to extend and give a new proof of the complex convexity theorem of Gindikin-Kroetz.
We consider four long-standing Rigidity Conjectures about synchrony and phase patterns for hyperbolic periodic orbits of admissible ODEs for networks. Proofs of stronger local versions of these conjectures, published in 2010-12, are now…
The aim of the present work is to show that recent results of the authors on the approximation of distributions of sums of independent summands by the infinitely divisible laws on convex polyhedra can be shown via an alternative class of…
In this note, we establish the dihedral rigidity phenomenon for a collection of parabolic polyhedrons enclosed by horospheres in hyperbolic manifolds, extending Gromov's comparison theory to metrics with negative scalar curvature lower…
