It is shown that analytic conformal submersions of $S^3$ are given by intersections of (not necessary closed) complex surfaces with a quadratic real hyper-surface in $\mathbb{C}P^3.$ A new description of the space of circles in the 3-sphere…
In previous work, a class of noninvertible topological dynamical systems $f: X \to X$ was introduced and studied; we called these {\em topologically coarse expanding conformal} systems. To such a system is naturally associated a preferred…
We study the reflectional symmetry of a surface in the Euclidean 3-dimensional space with a cross-cap singularity with respect to planes. This symmetry is picked up by the singularities of folding maps on the cross-cap. We give a list of…

We give an explicit description of the Fefferman metric for twistor CR manifolds in terms of Riemannian structures on the base conformal 3-manifolds. As an application, we prove that chains and null chains on twistor CR manifolds project to…

The geodesics in various spherical Rindler frames are investigated. A display of some kinematical quantities of the spacetime is given. The constant acceleration from the metric acts as the surface gravity of the horizon $r = 0$. The radial…
We consider the problem of prescribing Gaussian and geodesic curvatures for a conformal metric on the unit disk. This is equivalent to solving the following P.D.E. \begin{equation*}\begin{cases}-\Delta u=2K(z)e^u&\hbox{in}\;\mathbb{D}^2,\\…
In this letter, we first redefine our formalism of the thermodynamic geometry introduced in [1,2] by changing coordinates of the thermodynamic space by means of Jacobian matrices. We then show that the geometrothermodynamics (GTD) is…
This paper belongs to the realm of conformal geometry and deals with Euclidean submanifolds that admit smooth variations that are infinitesimally conformal. Conformal variations of Euclidean submanifolds is a classical subject in…
We study infinitesimal conformal deformations of a triangulated surface in Euclidean space and investigate the change in its extrinsic geometry. A deformation of vertices is conformal if it preserves length cross-ratios. On one hand,…
We define a complete Riemannian manifold X to be large-scale conformally rigid if all groups that are quasi-isometric to some complete Riemannian manifold of bounded geometry conformal to X are quasi-isometric to X. We prove that many…
