We define a Jordan homomorphism $\varphi$ from a ring $R$ to a ring $R'$ to be splittable if the ideal (of the subring generated by the image of $\varphi$) generated by all $\varphi(xy)-\varphi(x)\varphi(y)$, $x,y\in R$, has trivial…
This paper is devoted to the study of conformal maps of the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ in the plane onto a bounded Jordan domain $G$. The main aim is to show that such a map is asymptotically symmetric if and only if $G$ is bounded by a…

The surface science of iron oxides is comprehensively reviewed. For the full abstract please see pdf.
These notes were written following lectures I had the pleasure of giving on this subject at Keio University, during November and December 2004. The first part is about new applications of Jordan algebras to the geometry of Hermitian…
Any finite union of disjoint, mutually exterior Jordan curves in the complex plane can be approximated arbitrarily well in the Hausdorff topology by polynomial Julia sets. Furthermore, the proof is constructive.
In this short survey we report on the theory of biharmonic maps between Riemannian manifolds.

Let $A,B$ be two unital $C^*-$algebras. We prove that every almost unital almost linear mapping $h:A\longrightarrow B$ which satisfies $h(3^nuy+3^nyu) = h(3^nu)h(y)+h(y)h(3^nu)$ for all $u\in U(A)$, all $y\in A$, and all $n = 0, 1, 2,...$,…
We survey recent developments in the study of Hodge theoretic aspects of Alexander-type invariants associated with smooth complex algebraic varieties.
This is a survey of results on random group presentations, and on random subgroups of certain fixed groups. Being a survey, this paper does not contain new results, but it offers a synthetic view of a part of this very active field of…
This re-certifying paper describes the details of the Morse homology of manifolds with boundary, introduced by the author before, in terms of handlebody decompositions.
This text is a survey of derived algebraic geometry. It covers a variety of general notions and results from the subject with a view on the recent developments at the interface with deformation quantization.

We survey what is known about various special types of submanifolds of contact manifolds and discuss their role in the development of contact geometry.
Let $A$ and $B$ be unital rings. An additive map $T:A\to B$ is called a weighted Jordan homomorphism if $c=T(1)$ is an invertible central element and $cT(x^2) = T(x)^2$ for all $x\in A$. We provide assumptions, which are in particular…
This paper is an overview of my recent work on abstract homomorphisms of algebraic groups. It is based on a talk given at the Conference on Group Actions and Applications in Geometry, Topology, and Analysis held in Kunming in July 2012.
The aim of this paper is to offer an overview of the most important applications of Jordan structures inside mathematics and also to physics, up-dated references being included. For a more detailed treatment of this topic see - especially -…
This paper is a survey on arc spaces, a recent topic in algebraic geometry and singularity theory. The geometry of the arc space of an algebraic variety yields several new geometric invariants and brings new light to some classical…
