We investigate the emergence of finite-amplitude non-zonal flows on the sphere $\mathbb{S}^2$ arising from stationary solutions to the 2D Euler equations. By restricting the Laplace-Beltrami eigenspace to the invariant subspace of the…
We determine that the deformation space of convex real projective structures, that is, projectively flat torsion-free connections with the geodesic convexity property on a compact 2-orbifold of negative Euler characteristic is homeomorphic…
The reduction of the three-dimensional classical electromagnetism is performed in a twofold way. In the first case the ordinary two-dimensional electromagnetism is obtained with sources in the form of conserved electric currents flowing…
In every Engel manifold we construct an infinite family of pairwise non-isotopic transverse tori that are all smoothly isotopic. To distinguish the transverse tori in the family we introduce a homological invariant of transverse tori that…
We find formal and holomorphic normal forms for a class of meromorphic connections (the so-called $(TE)$-structures) over the irreducible $2$-dimensional globally nilpotent $F$-manifold germ $\mathcal N_{2}$. We find normal forms for Euler…
We study the moduli space of logarithmic connections of rank 2 on the Riemann sphere minus n points with fixed spectral data. There are two natural Lagrangian maps: one towards apparent singularities of the associated fuchsian scalar…
In photonics, band degeneracies at high-symmetry points in wavevector space have been shown to exhibit rich physical phenomena. However, obtaining degenerate bands away from such points is highly nontrivial. In this work, we achieve complex…

The purpose of this work is to close the local deformation problem of rank two Euclidean submanifolds in codimension two by describing their moduli space of deformations. In the process, we provide an explicit simple representation of these…
The Dedekind tessellation -- the regular tessellation of the upper half-plane by the Mobius action of the modular group -- is usually viewed as a system of ideal triangles. We change the focus from triangles to circles and give their…
The group action which defines the moduli problem for the deformation space of flat affine structures on the two-torus is the action of the affine group $\Aff(2)$ on $\bbR^2$. Since this action has non-compact stabiliser $\GL(2,\bbR)$, the…
A Coxeter $n$-orbifold is an $n$-dimensional orbifold based on a polytope with silvered boundary facets. Each pair of adjacent facets meet on a ridge of some order $m$, whose neighborhood is locally modeled on ${\mathbb R}^n$ modulo the…
This study undertakes the mathematical modelling and numerical analysis of dislocations within the framework of differential geometry. The fundamental configurations, i.e. reference, intermediate and current configurations, are expressed as…
In this second article, we prove that any desingularization in the Gromov-Hausdorff sense of an Einstein orbifold is the result of a gluing-perturbation procedure that we develop. This builds on our first paper where we proved that a…
The Erd\H{o}s-Anning theorem states that every point set in the Euclidean plane with integer distances must be either collinear or finite. More strongly, for any (non-degenerate) triangle of diameter~$\delta$, at most $O(\delta^2)$ points…
Starting with a compact hyperbolic cone-manifold of dimension n > 2, we study the deformations of the metric in order to get Einstein cone-manifolds. If the singular locus is a closed codimension 2 submanifold and all cone angles are…
A special class of mixed-symmetry type tensor gauge fields of degrees two and three in four dimensions is investigated from the perspective of the Lagrangian deformation procedure based on cohomological BRST techniques. It is shown that the…
Let Z be a compact complex (2n+1)-manifold which carries a {\em complex contact structure}, meaning a codimension-1 holomorphic sub-bundle D of TZ which is maximally non-integrable. If Z admits a K\"ahler-Einstein metric of positive scalar…
The theory of surfaces in Euclidean space can be naturally formulated in the more general context of Legendre surfaces into the space of contact elements. We address the question of deformability of Legendre surfaces with respect to the…
