The notion of quadratic maps between arbitrary groups appeared at several places in the literature on quadratic algebra. Here a unified extensive treatment of their properties is given; the relation with a relative version of Passi's…

Biharmonic and conformal-biharmonic maps are two fourth-order generalizations of the well-studied notion of harmonic maps in Riemannian geometry. In this article we consider maps into the Euclidean sphere and investigate a geometric…

A half-geodesic is a closed geodesic realizing the distance between any pair of its points. All geodesics in a round sphere are half-geodesics. Conversely, this note establishes that Riemannian spheres with all geodesics closed and…

We study biharmonic maps and f-biharmonic maps from a round sphere $(S^2, g_0)$, the latter maps are equivalent to biharmonic maps from Riemann spheres $(S^2, f^{-1}g_0)$. We proved that for rotationally symmetric maps between rotationally…

A circle pattern is a configuration of circles in the plane whose combinatorics is given by a planar graph G such that to each vertex of G corresponds a circle. If two vertices are connected by an edge in G, the corresponding circles…

A corner in a map is an edge-vertex-edge triple consisting of two distinct edges incident to the same vertex. A corneration is a set of corners that covers every arc of the map exactly once. Cornerations in a dart-transitive map generalize…

A map is an abstract visual representation of a region, taken from a given space, usually designed for final human consumption. Traditional cartography focuses on the mapping of Euclidean spaces by using some distance metric. In this paper…

We characterize all possible relative positions between a hyperboloid of one sheet and a sphere through the roots of a characteristic polynomial associated to these quadrics. The classification is also suitable for a hyperboloid and a…

For a finite planar graph, it associates with some metric spaces, called (regular) spherical polyhedral surfaces, by replacing faces with regular spherical polygons in the unit sphere and gluing them edge-to-edge. We consider the class of…

We consider proper holomorphic maps of ball complements and differences in complex euclidean spaces of dimension at least two. Such maps are always rational, which naturally leads to a related problem of classifying rational maps taking…

This is an algorithm for finding neighbors when the objects can freely move and have no predefined position. The query consists in finding neighbors for a center location and a given radius. Space is discretized in cubic cells. This…

This note treats several problems for the fractional perimeter or $s$-perimeter on the sphere. The spherical fractional isoperimetric inequality is established. It turns out that the equality cases are exactly the spherical caps.…

Consider a bundle of circles passing through 0 in 4-dimensional space. It is said to be rectifiable if there is a germ of diffeomorphism at 0 that takes all circles from our bundle to straight lines. We will give a classification of all…

In this paper, we study diagonal maps between spheres given by two homogeneous polynomial maps between spheres, defined on the same domain sphere. First we find their bitension field, then we give a method for generating proper biharmonic…

A regular map is a surface together with an embedded graph, having properties similar to those of the surface and graph of a platonic solid. We analyze regular maps with reflection symmetry and a graph of density strictly exceeding 1/2, and…

For any sequence of matrix algebras that converge to a coadjoint orbit we give explicit formulas that show that the distances between the matrix algebras (viewed as quantum metric spaces) converges to 0. In the process we develop a general…

In a previous paper we introduced examples of Hamiltonian mappings with phase space structures resembling circle packings. It was shown that a vast number of periodic orbits can be found using special properties. We now use this information…

We give a complete classification of Riemannian and Lorentzian surfaces of arbitrary codimension in a pseudo-sphere whose pseudo-spherical Gauss maps are of 1-type or, in particular, harmonic. In some cases a concrete global classification…

Consider a smooth map from a neighborhood of the origin in a real vector space to a neighborhood of the origin in a Euclidean space. Suppose that this map takes all germs of lines passing through the origin to germs of Euclidean circles, or…

This paper shows that orbital equations generated by iteration of polynomial maps do not have necessarily a unique representation. Remarkably, they may be represented in an infinity of ways, all interconnected by certain nonlinear…
