In this paper, we obtain a Schwarz lemma for holomorphic mappings from the unit polydisc $P_m$ into the unit polydisc $P_n$, here $P_m$ and $P_n$ are endowed with $\mbox{Aut}(P_m)$-invariant K\"ahelr-Berwald metric $F_{t,k}$ and…

In this paper, we prove a general Schwarz lemma at the boundary for holomorphic mappings from the polydisc to the unit ball in any dimensions. For the special case of one complex variable, the obtained results give the classic boundary…

In a primitive integral Apollonian circle packing, the curvatures that appear must fall into one of six or eight residue classes modulo 24. The local-global conjecture states that every sufficiently large integer in one of these residue…

In two articles by Barthel, Brasselet, Fieseler and Kaup, and, Bressler and Lunts, a combinatorial theory of intersection cohomology and perverse sheaves has been developed on fans. In the first one, one tried to present everything on an…

This paper proves a deformation circle pattern theorem, which gives a complete description of those circle patterns with interstices in terms of the combinatorial type, the exterior intersections angles and the conformal structures of…

Consider a general circle packing $\mathcal{P}$ in the complex plane $\mathbb{C}$ invariant under a Kleinian group $\Gamma$. When $\Gamma$ is convex-cocompact or its critical exponent is greater than 1, we obtain an effective…

We give a definition of thickness in $\mathbb{R}^d$ that is useful even for totally disconnected sets, and prove a Gap Lemma type result. We also guarantee an interval of distances in any direction in thick compact sets, relate thick sets…

We provide a tight result for a fundamental problem arising from packing disks into a circular container: The critical density of packing disks in a disk is 0.5. This implies that any set of (not necessarily equal) disks of total area…

We study the discrete graph-metric analogue of Gromov's filling area problem for the cycle graph \(C_n\). An abstract triangulation \(K\) is an isometric filling of \(C_n\) if \(\partial K=C_n\) and the graph distance between any two…

Given a set $S$ of $n$ static points and a free point $p$ in the Euclidean plane, we study a new variation of the minimum enclosing circle problem, in which a dynamic weight that equals to the reciprocal of the distance from the free point…

Two triangle meshes are conformally equivalent if for any pair of incident triangles the absolute values of the corresponding cross-ratios of the four vertices agree. Such a pair can be considered as preimage and image of a discrete…

Unsharp spin 1 observables arise from the fact that a residual uncertainty about the actual orientation of the measurement device remains. If the uncertainty is below a certain level, and if the distribution of measurement errors is…

We prove packing and counting theorems for arbitrarily oriented Hamilton cycles in ${\cal D}(n,p)$ for nearly optimal $p$ (up to a $\log ^cn$ factor). In particular, we show that given $t = (1-o(1))np$ Hamilton cycles $C_1,\ldots ,C_{t}$,…

Applying the Sachs formalism, the optical properties encoded in the distance modulus are studied along curves exhibiting local rotational symmetry for some closed inhomogeneous cosmological models whose mass content is discretized by…

This article is a gentle introduction to the mathematical area known as circle packing, the study of the kinds of patterns that can be formed by configurations of non-overlapping circles. The first half of the article is an exposition of…

In 4 spacetime dimensions there is a well known proof that for any asymptotically flat, stationary, and axisymmetric vacuum solution of Einstein's equation there exists a "$t$-$\phi$" reflection isometry that reverses the direction of the…

Predicting theoretically the highest density, which a disordered packing of discs can achieve, has been a long-standing unresolved problem. Such predictions are hindered by two difficulties - the dependence of the density on the packing…

According to a theorem of S. Schumacher, for a diffusion X in an environment determined by a stable process that belongs to an appropriate class and has index a, it holds that X_t/(log t)^a converges in distribution, as t goes to infinity,…

We extend previous work on Schwarz-Chrsitoffel mappings, including the special cases when the image is a convex polygon or its complement. We center our analysis on the relationship between the pre-Schwrazian of such mappings and Blaschke…

A discrete group $\G$ is called rigidly symmetric if for every $C^*$-algebra $\A$ the projective tensor product $\ell^1(\G)\widehat\otimes\A$ is a symmetric Banach $^*$-algebra. For such a group we show that the twisted crossed product…
