We define a cone curve to be a reduced sextic space curve which lies on a quadric cone and does not go through the vertex. We classify families of bitangent planes of cone curves. The methods we apply can be used for any space curve with…

The classical theory of elliptic curves with complex multiplication is a fundamental tool for studying the arithmetic of abelian extensions of imaginary quadratic fields. While no direct analogue is available for real quadratic fields, a…

Billiard systems offer a simple setting to study regular and chaotic dynamics. Gravitational billiards are generalizations of these classical billiards which are amenable to both analytical and experimental investigations. Most previous…

Orbits of families of vector fields on a subcartesian space are shown to be smooth manifolds. This allows for a global description of a smooth geometric structure on a family of manifolds in terms of a single object defined on the…

We give a conjectural characterisation of the stable reduction of plane quartics over local fields in terms of their Cayley octads. This results in p-adic criteria that efficiently give the stable reduction type amongst the 42 possible…

We study planar non-topological solitons in models with nonlinear potentials that are bounded from below. These models provide consistent completion for the classical consideration at any energy scale. The properties of our solutions…

The discrete group generated by reflections of the sphere, or Euclidean space, or hyperbolic space are said to be Coxeter groups of, respectively, spherical, or Euclidean, or hyperbolic type. The hyperbolic Coxeter groups are said to be…

In the literature, lines of the projective space $\mathrm{PG}(3,q)$ are partitioned into classes, each of which is a union of line orbits under the stabilizer group of the twisted cubic. The least studied class is named $\mathcal{O}_6$.…

We study the motion of test particles around a center of attraction represented by a monopole (with and without spheroidal deformation) surrounded by a ring, given as a superposition of Morgan & Morgan discs. We deal with two kinds of…

Through blowup \cite{T}, the rescaled Poicar\'e map is continued to nondegenerate singularities in \cite{GY,CY}. For a nondegenerate singularity of a $C^1$ vector field, we prove that the extended rescaled Poincar\'e map over the singurity…

We study some classical integrable systems naturally associated with multiplicative quiver varieties for the (extended) cyclic quiver with $m$ vertices. The phase space of our integrable systems is obtained by quasi-Hamiltonian reduction…

Let $\Gamma$ denote the mapping class group of the plane minus a Cantor set. We show that every action of $\Gamma$ on the circle is either trivial or semi-conjugate to a unique minimal action on the so-called simple circle.

For plane frameworks with reflection or rotational symmetries, where the group action is not necessarily free on the vertex set, we introduce a phase-symmetric orbit rigidity matrix for each irreducible representation of the group. We then…

Lienard systems are very important mathematical models describing oscillatory processes arising in applied sciences. In this paper, we study polynomial Lienard systems of arbitrary degree on the plane, and develop a new method to obtain a…

We study the Poincar\'e series of the mixed and pure trace rings of generic matrices. These series are known to be rational functions. We obtain an explicit formula in lowest terms in the case of $2\times2$ matrices; a denominator, which we…

We present a direct construction of compact real forms of the trigonometric and elliptic $n$-particle Ruijsenaars-Schneider systems whose completed center-of-mass phase space is the complex projective space $\mathbb{CP}^{n-1}$ with the…

The purpose of this paper is to compare a classical non-holonomic system---a sphere rolling against the inner surface of a vertical cylinder under gravity---and a class of discrete dynamical systems known as no-slip billiards in similar…

Let $S$ be a set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^3$, no three collinear and not all coplanar. If at most $n-k$ are coplanar and $n$ is sufficiently large, the total number of planes determined is at least $1 + k…

Inspired by Coxeter's notion of Petrie polygon for $d$-polytopes (see \cite{Cox73}), we consider a generalization of the notion of zigzag circuits on complexes and compute the zigzag structure for several interesting families of…

We compute the quiver of any monoid that has a basic algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. More generally, we reduce the computation of the quiver over a splitting field of a class of monoids that we term…
