We prove an asymptotic formula for the number of ${\rm SL}_3({\mathbb Z})$-equivalence classes of integral ternary cubic forms having bounded invariants. We use this result to show that the average size of the 3-Selmer group of all elliptic…
Topological phases of matter have been extensively investigated in solid state materials and classical wave systems with integer dimensions. However, topological states in non-integer dimensions remain largely unexplored. Fractals, being…
Neutral hydrogen observations with the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope are presented for a sample of 73 late-type dwarf galaxies. These observations are part of the WHISP project (Westerbork HI Survey of Spiral and Irregular Galaxies).…
Ball's celebrated cube slicing (1986) asserts that among hyperplane sections of the cube in $\mathbb{R}^n$, the central section orthogonal to $(1,1,0,\dots,0)$ has the greatest volume. We show that the same continues to hold for slicing…
We show that there is a constant $c$ such that any 3-uniform hypergraph $\mathcal H$ with $n$ vertices and at least $cn^{5/2}$ edges contains a triangulation of the real projective plane as a subgraph. This resolves a conjecture of…
We classify perimeter dominant triangles whose side lengths are in $\sqrt3\mathbb N$ and whose area is in $\frac{\sqrt3}4\mathbb N$. There is one exceptional example, which is equilateral, and three infinite families determined by certain…
A degree-regular triangulation is one in which each vertex has identical degree. Our main result is that any such triangulation of a (possibly non-compact) surface $S$ is geometric, that is, it is combinatorially equivalent to a geodesic…
A {\em $1-$vertex triangulation} of an oriented compact surface $S$ of genus $g$ is an embedded graph $T\subset S$ with a unique vertex such that all connected components of $S\setminus T$ are triangles (adjacent to exactly 3 edges of $T$).…
We give a purely analytic construction of a self-similar local regular Dirichlet form on the Sierpi\'nski carpet using approximation of stable-like non-local closed forms which gives an answer to an open problem in analysis on fractals.
Let W be a planar 3-web defined on a neighborhood of a point M. We call "symmetry of W around M" any local diffeomorphism which fixes M and maps each foliation of W to a (not necessarily the same) foliation of W. We say that it is a simple…
A \emph{cylinder packing} is a family of congruent infinite circular cylinders with mutually disjoint interiors in $3$-dimensional Euclidean space. The \emph{local density} of a cylinder packing is the ratio between the volume occupied by…
In this paper, we prove some new thickness theorems with partial derivatives. We give some applications. First, we give a simple criterion that can judge whether two scaled Cantor sets have non-empty intersection. Second, we prove under…
We investigate the dimension of intersections of the Sierpi\'nski gasket with lines. Our first main result describes a countable, dense set of angles that are exceptional for Marstrand's theorem. We then provide a multifractal analysis for…
We present the first part of our DARTTS-S (Disks ARound TTauri Stars with SPHERE) survey: Observations of 8 TTauri stars which were selected based on their strong (sub-)mm excesses using SPHERE / IRDIS polarimetric differential imaging…
We explore how the growth rate of spiral disks can be measured via analyses of the scatter in the Tully-Fisher (TF) relation of local and intermediate redshift galaxies. As an initial step, we show it is possible to construct a…
We prove that any two finite-area non-compact hyperbolic Riemann surfaces S and T have finite covers that are arbitrarily close in the normalized Weil-Petersson metric, where we normalize by dividing the square of the metric by the area of…
By refining the volume estimate of Heintze and Karcher \cite{HK}, we obtain a sharp pinching estimate for the genus of a surface in $\mathbb S^{3}$, which involves an integral of the norm of its traceless second fundamental form. More…
Several conditions are given when a packing of equal disks in a torus is locally maximally dense, where the torus is defined as the quotient of the plane by a two-dimensional lattice. Conjectures are presented that claim that the density of…
In domains, categories, and toposes, the Sierpi\'nski cone construction glues onto a space a universal closed point lying below all the other points. Although this is a lax colimit, it also enjoys a well-known right-handed universal…
Infinite families of 3-dimensional closed graph manifolds and closed Seifert fibered spaces are exhibited, each member of which contains an essential torus not detected by ideal points of the variety of $\text{SL}_2(\mathbb{F})$-characters…
