We construct complete Riemannian metrics to show that the total space of tangent bundles of orientable closed surfaces (except torus) admits complete uniformly PSC-metrics. It gives a partial positive answer to one of Gromov's question.
Let $\frak T$ be a set of cylindrical tubes in $\mathbb{R}^3$ of length $N$ and radius 1. If the union of the tubes has volume $N^{3 - \sigma}$, and each point in the union lies in tubes pointing in three quantitatively different…
We introduce and motivate a conjecture about the existence of complete, 1-dimensional families of covers of an elliptic curve. If the conjecture holds, then it would imply a uniform lower bound of 5 for slope of the moduli space of curves.…
We construct explicitly a finite cover of the moduli stack of compact Riemann surfaces with a given group of symmetries by a smooth quasi-projective variety.
In this paper, we show that Severi varieties parameterizing irreducible reduced planar curves of a given degree and geometric genus are either empty or irreducible in any characteristic. Following Severi's original idea, this gives a new…
We consider the Zariski-Lipman Conjecture on free module of derivations for algebraic surfaces. Using the theory of non-complete algebraic surfaces, and some basic results about ruled surfaces, we will prove the conjecture for several…
This note concerns the so-called pyjama problem, whether it is possible to cover the plane by finitely many rotations of vertical strips of half-width $\varepsilon$. We first prove that there exist no periodic coverings for…
We characterize all compact embedded stable minimal capillary surfaces with capillary angle close to either $0$ or $\pi$ that are supported on a complete embedded minimal surface with finite total curvature that is not an affine plane.…
Motivated by questions in geometric group theory we define a quasisymmetric co-Hopfian property for metric spaces and provide an example of a metric Sierpi\'nski carpet with this property. As an application we obtain a quasi-isometrically…
In this paper, the main focus is on the Sierpinski carpet Julia sets of the rational maps with non-recurrent critical points. We study the uniform quasicircle property of the peripheral circles, the relatively separated property of the…
The full symmetry groups for all single- and multi-wall carbon nanotubes are found. As for the single-wall tubes, the symmetries form nonabelian nonsymorphic line groups, enlarging the groups reported in literature. In the multi-wall case,…
We study the non-emptyness of moduli of stable sheaves on an elliptic ruled surface with a nef. anticanonical bundle.
We give a short, self-contained analytic proof of the existence of self-similar Dirichlet forms on pillow-type carpets, a family of infinitely ramified fractals that includes the Sierpi\'nski carpet.
We show that in $\mathbb{R}^d$ there are purely unrectifiable sets of Hausdorff (and even box counting) dimension $d-1$ which are not tube null, settling a question of Carbery, Soria and Vargas, and improving a number of results by the same…
In this paper we extend Efimov's Theorem by proving that any complete surface in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with Gauss curvature bounded above by a negative constant outside a compact set has finite total curvature, finite area and is properly…
In this paper, we present a unified perspective on sphere consistent truncations based on the classical geometric properties of sphere bundles. The backbone of our approach is the global angular form for the sphere. A universal formula for…
It is a long-standing open question to determine whether the Sierpi\'nski carpet attains its conformal dimension or not. While this problem remains unresolved, we prove that Cartesian products $\mathbb{S}^k$, where $\mathbb{S}$ is the…
A plank is the part of space between two parallel planes. The following open problem, posed 45 years ago, can be viwed as the converse of Tarski's plank problem (Bang's theorem): Is it true that if the total width of a collection of planks…
We prove the quasimodularity of generating functions for counting pillowcase covers, with and without Siegel-Veech weight. Similar to prior work on torus covers, the proof is based on analyzing decompositions of half-translation surfaces…
We prove joint universality theorems on the half plane of absolute convergence for general classes of Dirichlet series with an Euler-product, where in addition to vertical shifts we also allow scaling. This generalizes our recent joint…
