In [12], the existence of ideal circle patterns in Euclidean or hyperbolic background geometry under the combinatorial conditions was proved using flow approaches. It remains as an open problem for the spherical case. In this paper, we…
Let $\Phi(x,y)\in\mathbb{C}[x,y]$ be a symmetric polynomial of partial degree $d$. The graph $G(\Phi)$ is defined by taking $\mathbb{C}$ as set of vertices and the points of $\mathbb{V}(\Phi(x,y))$ as edges. We study the following problem:…
A Delaunay cell decomposition of a surface with constant curvature gives rise to a circle pattern, consisting of the circles which are circumscribed to the facets. We treat the problem whether there exists a Delaunay cell decomposition for…
In this paper, we extend the work of Ge-Hua-Zhou \cite{GHZ} on combinatorial Ricci flows for ideal circle patterns to combinatorial Calabi flows in both hyperbolic and Euclidean background geometry. We prove the solution to the…
In his seminal work \cite{Ri96}, Rivin characterized finite ideal polyhedra in three-dimensional hyperbolic space. However, the characterization of infinite ideal polyhedra, as proposed by Rivin, has remained a long-standing open problem.…
Combinatorial Calabi flows are introduced by Ge in his Ph.D. thesis (Combinatorial methods and geometric equations, Peking University, Beijing, 2012), and have been studied extensively in Euclidean and hyperbolic background geometry. In…

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…
We introduce a new class of discrete conformal structures on surfaces with boundary, which have nice interpolations in 3-dimensional hyperbolic geometry. Then we prove the global rigidity of the new discrete conformal structures using…
In this paper we give two different proofs of Bobenko and Springborn's theorem of circle pattern: there exists a hyperbolic (or Euclidean) circle pattern with proscribed intersection angles and cone angles on a cellular decomposed surface…
We study the combinatorial Calabi flow for ideal circle patterns in both hyperbolic and Euclidean background geometry. We prove that the flow exists for all time and converges exponentially fast to an ideal circle pattern metric on surfaces…

Let G be a reductive group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p, and let u in G be a unipotent element of order p. Suppose that p is a good prime for G. We show in this paper that there is a homomorphism phi:SL_2/k --> G…
We consider tilings $(\mathcal{Q},\Phi)$ of $\mathbb{R}^d$ where $\mathcal{Q}$ is the $d$-dimensional unit cube and the set of translations $\Phi$ is constrained to lie in a pre-determined lattice $A \mathbb{Z}^d$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We…

We introduce a new parameterization of $B\rightarrow D \pi \ell \nu$ form factors using a partial-wave expansion and derive bounds on the series coefficients using analyticity and unitarity. This is the first generalization of the…
Let $(R,m)$ be a Noetherian local ring and $I$ an ideal with finite projective dimension. If $R/I$ satisfies some property $\mathcal{P}$, it is natural to ask whether $R$ would also satisfy this property $\mathcal{P}$. This is called the…
By adapting the test functions introduced by Choi-Daskaspoulos \cite{c-d} and Brendle-Choi-Daskaspoulos \cite{b-c-d} and exploring properties of the $k$-th elementary symmetric functions $\sigma_{k}$ intensively, we show that for any fixed…
