Building on work of Kapouleas and Yang, we construct sequences of minimal surfaces embedded in the round 3-sphere which converge to the Clifford torus counted with multiplicity two and have second fundamental form blowing up at every point…

We consider the problem of finding the smallest graph that contains two input trees each with at most $n$ vertices preserving their distances. In other words, we look for an isometric-universal graph with the minimum number of vertices for…

We extend a packing result of R. Hind and E. Kerman for integral Lagrangian tori in $\mathbb{S}^{2} \times \mathbb{S}^{2}$ to the Del Pezzo surfaces $(\mathbb{D}_{n}, \omega_{\mathbb{D}_{n}})$ for $n = 1, \dots, 5$. An integral torus is one…

For each rational number $p/q\in (1/2,\sqrt 2/2)$ one can construct an $\mathbb S^1$-equivariant minimal torus in $\mathbb S^3$ called Otsuki torus and denoted by $O_{p/q}$. The Lawson's bipolar surface construction applied to $O_{p/q}$…

Given a Riemannian $\mathbb{RP}^3$ with a bumpy metric or a metric of positive Ricci curvature, we show that there either exist four distinct minimal real projective planes, or exist one minimal real projective plane together with two…

For sequences of warped product metrics on a $3$-torus satisfying the scalar curvature bound $R_j \geq -\frac{1}{j}$, uniform upper volume and diameter bounds, and a uniform lower area bound on the smallest minimal surface, we find a…

Let $A=\sqrt 3$. There are two main conjectures about paper Moebius bands. First, a smooth embedded paper Moebius band must have aspect ratio at least A. Second, any sequence of smooth embedded paper Moebius bands having aspect ratio…

It is shown that a simple graph which is embeddable in the real projective plane is minimally 3-rigid if and only if it is (3,6)-tight. Moreover the topologically uncontractible embedded graphs of this type are constructible from one of 8…

An abstract polytope is \emph{flat} if every facet is incident on every vertex. In this paper, we prove that no chiral polytope has flat finite regular facets and finite regular vertex-figures. We then determine the three smallest non-flat…

We investigate which orbits of an $n$-dimensional torus action on a $2n$-dimensional toric K\"ahler manifold $M$ are minimal. In other words, we study minimal submanifolds appearing as the fibres of the moment map on a toric K\"ahler…

We construct a family of flat isotropic non-homogeneous tori in $\mathbb{H}^n$ and $\mathbb{C} \mathrm{P}^{2n+1}$ and find necessary and sufficient conditions for their Hamiltonian minimality.

In this note we show that the maximum number of vertices in any polyhedron $P=\{x\in \mathbb{R}^d : Ax\leq b\}$ with $0,1$-constraint matrix $A$ and a real vector $b$ is at most $d!$.

To an oriented link in a solid torus we associate a trace graph in a thickened torus in such a way that links are isotopic if and only if their trace graphs can be related by moves of finitely many standard types. The key ingredient is a…

Let $T$ be a tree with $t$ edges. We show that the number of isomorphic (labeled) copies of $T$ in a graph $G = (V,E)$ of minimum degree at least $t$ is at least \[2|E| \prod_{v \in V} (d(v) - t + 1)^{\frac{(t-1)d(v)}{2|E|}}.\]…

Twin-width is a recently introduced graph parameter for finite graphs. It is an open problem to determine whether there is an $n$-vertex graph having twin-width at least $n/2$ (due to J. Ahn, K. Hendrey, D. Kim and S. Oum). In an earlier…

The main result of this paper is that for any $c>0$ and for large enough $n$ if the number of edges in a 3-uniform hypergraph is at least $cn^2$ then there is a core (subgraph with minimum degree at least 2) on at most 15 vertices. We…

A pattern knot in a solid torus defines a self-map of the smooth knot concordance group. We prove that if the winding number of a pattern is even but not divisible by 8, then the corresponding map is not a homomorphism, thus partially…

We prove that 3-dimensional ellipsoids invariant under a 2-torus action contain infinitely many distinct immersed minimal tori, with at most one exception. These minimal tori bifurcate from the 2-torus orbit of largest volume at a dense set…

We prove that, given a polyhedron $\mathcal P$ in $\mathbb{R}^3$, every point in $\mathbb R^3$ that does not see any vertex of $\mathcal P$ must see eight or more edges of $\mathcal P$, and this bound is tight. More generally, this remains…

Minimal tori that are linearly full in the 3-sphere possess a natural invariant g called their spectral genus, which was introduced by Hitchin. We show that for each g>0, there are countably many real g-dimensional families of minimally…
