A novel class of integrable surfaces is recorded. This class of O surfaces is shown to include and generalize classical surfaces such as isothermic, constant mean curvature, minimal, `linear' Weingarten, Guichard and Petot surfaces and…
We introduce a deformation of Riemann surfaces and we are interested in the convergence of this deformation to a point of the Gardiner-masur boundary of Teichmueller space. This deformation, which we call the horocyclic deformation, is…
We introduce the notion of a manifold admitting a simple compact Cartan 3-form $\om^3$. We study algebraic types of such manifolds specializing on those having skew-symmetric torsion, or those associated with a closed or coclosed 3-form…
In this paper, we prove the following result : let X be a complex manifold, hyperbolic for the Carath\'eodory distance and let U be an open set relatively compact in X. Then, there exists k<1 such that we get, for the Carath\'eodory…
It is a well known phenomenon that many classical minimal surfaces in Euclidean space also exist with higher dihedral symmetry. More precisely, these surfaces are solutions to free boundary problems in a wedge bounded by two vertical planes…
The main objects of the paper are $z$-oriented triangulations of connected closed $2$-dimensional surfaces. A $z$-orientation of a map is a minimal collection of zigzags which double covers the set of edges. We have two possibilities for an…
We study singularities obtained by the contraction of the maximal divisor in compact (non kaehlerian) surfaces which contain global spherical shells. These singularities are of genus 1 or 2, may be Q-Gorenstein, numerically Gorenstein or…
The Schur (resp. Carath\'eodory) class consists of all the analytic functions $f$ on the unit disk with $|f|\le 1$ (resp. $\Re f>0$ and $f(0)=1$). The Schur parameters $\gamma_0,\gamma_1,\dots (|\gamma_j|\le 1)$ are known to parametrize the…
We show that string theory with Dirichlet boundaries is equivalent to string theory containing surfaces with certain singular points. Surface curvature is singular at these points. A singular point is resolved in conformal coordinates to a…
The essence of the potential algebra concept [3] is that quantum mechanical free motions of scalar particles on curved surfaces of given isometry algebras can be mapped on 1D Schroedinger equations with particular potentials. As long as the…
In this paper, we show that the total area of two distinct surfaces with Gaussian curvature equal to 1, which are also conformal to the Euclidean unit disk with the same conformal factor on the boundary, must be at least 4{\pi}. In other…
In this note we discuss the geometry of Riemannian surfaces having a discrete set of singular points. We assume the conformal structure extends through the singularities and the curvature is integrable. Such points are called \emph{simple…
We give a number of examples of pairs of non-compact surfaces which are isoscattering, and which are exceptionally simple in one or more senses. We give examples which are of small genus with a small number of ends, and also examles which…
Umbilics are points of a surface embedded in three space where normal curvatures are independent of direction. The (in)famous Carath\'{e}odory Conjecture states that a compact simply connected embedded surface has at least two umbilic…
In this paper, we use the Carath\'eodory Convergence Theory to prove a landing theorem of rays in hyperbolic components with rational arguments. Although the proof is done in the setting of a family of entire transcendental maps with two…
In this paper we will show that two surfaces of the same genus and homology class in a simply connected 4-manifold are concordant. We will show they are often topologically isotopic when their complements have cyclic fundamental group.…
We introduce the notion of alteration of a surface embedded in a 3-manifold extending that of compression. We see that given two Seifert surfaces of the same link are related to each other by ``single'' alteration, even if they are not by…
We study the categorification of collapsed Riemann surfaces with quadratic differentials allowing arbitrary order zeros and poles via the Verdier quotient. We establish an isomorphism between the exchange graph of hearts in the quotient…
A conformal map from a Riemann surface to a Euclidean space of dimension greater than or equal to three is explained by using the Clifford algebra, in a similar fashion to quaternionic holomorphic geometry of surfaces in the Euclidean…
We explore how the higher order Hochschild cohomology controls a deformation theory when the simplicial set models the 3-sphere. Besides generalizing to the $d$-sphere for any $d\geq1$, we also investigate a deformation theory corresponding…
