We study the $\epsilon$-level sets of the signed distance function to a planar Jordan curve $\Gamma$, and ask what properties of $\Gamma$ ensure that the $\epsilon$-level sets are Jordan curves, or uniform quasicircles, or uniform chord-arc…

Let $\alpha$ be an irrational number of sufficiently high type and suppose $P_\alpha(z)=e^{2\pi i\alpha}z+z^2$ has a Siegel disk $\Delta_\alpha$ centered at the origin. We prove that the boundary of $\Delta_\alpha$ is a Jordan curve, and…

Let $M_n$ be the algebra of $n \times n$ complex matrices. We consider arbitrary subalgebras $\mathcal{A}$ of $M_n$ which contain the algebra of all upper-triangular matrices (i.e.\ block upper-triangular subalgebras), and their Jordan…

We consider families of polynomial lemniscates in the complex plane and determine if they bound a Jordan domain. This allows us to find examples of regions for which we can calculate the projection of $\bar{z}$ to the Bergman space of the…

Inspired by the work of Benson, Carlson, Friedlander, Pevtsova, and Suslin on modules of constant Jordan type for finite group schemes, we introduce in this paper the class of representations of constant Jordan type for an acyclic quiver…

If two Jordan curves in the plane have precisely one point in common, and there they do not properly cross, then the common point is called a {\em touching point}. The main result of this paper is a Crossing Lemma for simple curves: Let $X$…

The Jordan totient $J_k(n)$ can be defined by $J_k(n)=n^k\prod_{p\mid n}(1-p^{-k})$. In this paper, we study the average behavior of fractions $P/Q$ of two products $P$ and $Q$ of Jordan totients, which we call Jordan totient quotients. To…

We call a group $G$ nilpotently Jordan of class at most $c$ $(c\in\mathbb{N})$ if there exists a constant $J\in\mathbb{Z}^+$ such that every finite subgroup $H\leqq G$ contains a nilpotent subgroup $K\leqq H$ of class at most $c$ and index…

For a Jordan domain in the plane the length metric space of points connected to an interior point by a curve of finite length is a CAT(0)space and Gromov hyperbolic. With respect to the cone topology, that space plus its boundary at…

Determining the Jordan canonical form of the tensor product of Jordan blocks has many applications including to the representation theory of algebraic groups, and to tilting modules. Although there are several algorithms for computing this…

We show that the stability constant of the Lennard-Jones potential in $\mathbb R^3$, $\Phi(x)=\lVert x \rVert^{-12}-2 \lVert x \rVert^{-6}$, is smaller than $14.316$. This is remarkably smaller than the best previously known bound. Our…

For a compact right-angled polyhedron $R$ in $\mathbb H^3$ denote by $\operatorname{vol} (R)$ the volume and by $\operatorname{vert} (R)$ the number of vertices. Upper and lower bounds for $\operatorname{vol} (R)$ in terms of…

We prove that pointwise finite-dimensional S^1 persistence modules over an arbitrary field decompose uniquely, up to isomorphism, into the direct sum of a bar code and finitely-many Jordan cells. These persistence modules have also been…

We call a group $G$ nilpotently Jordan of class at most $c$ $(c\in\mathbb{N})$ if there exists a constant $J\in\mathbb{Z}^+$ such that every finite subgroup $H\leqq G$ contains a nilpotent subgroup $K\leqq H$ of class at most $c$ and index…

Erdos, Herzog and Piranian asked whether, for $n$ points in the plane with fixed diameter (maximum distance between points), an arrangement of a regular $n$-gon maximizes their product of all pairs of distances. Recently, it was discovered…

We prove that simple, thick hyperbolic P-manifolds of dimension >2 exhibit Mostow rigidity. We also prove a quasi-isometry rigidity result for the fundamental groups of simple, thick hyperbolic P-manifolds of dimension >2. The key tool in…

We study the group of birational automorphisms of the $n$-dimensional projective space that preserve the standard torus invariant volume form with logarithmic poles. We prove that this group is not generated by pseudo-regularizable maps for…

We give the sharp lower bound of the volume product of three dimensional convex bodies which are invariant under a discrete subgroup of $O(3)$ in several cases. We also characterize the convex bodies with the minimal volume product in each…

A family of closed simple (i.e., Jordan) curves is $m$-intersecting if any pair of its curves have at most $m$ points of common intersection. We say that a pair of such curves touch if they intersect at a single point of common tangency. In…

The Cremona group is the group of birational transformations of the plane. A birational transformation for which there exists a pencil of lines which is sent onto another pencil of lines is called a Jonqui\`eres transformation. By the…
