We prove the existence of rational maps having smooth degenerate Herman rings. This answers a question of Eremenko affirmatively. The proof is based on the construction of smooth Siegel disks by Avila, Buff and Ch\'{e}ritat as well as the…
We show that the set of conjugacy classes of cubic polynomials with a prefixed critical point, of preperiod $k\geq 1$, is an irreducible algebraic curve. We also establish an analogous result for quadratic rational maps. We then study a…
Let f be a degree d polynomial defined over the nonarchimedean field C_p, normalized so f is monic and f(0)=0. We say f is post-critically bounded, or PCB, if all of its critical points have bounded orbit under iteration of f. It is known…
We present some new and recent algorithmic results concerning polynomial system solving over various rings. In particular, we present some of the best recent bounds on: (a) the complexity of calculating the complex dimension of an algebraic…
By adapting the near-degenerate regime designed by Kahn, Lyubich, and D. Dudko, we prove that the boundaries of Herman rings with bounded type rotation number and of the simplest configuration are quasicircles with dilatation depending only…
We study compact stable embedded minimal surfaces whose boundary is given by two collections of closed smooth Jordan curves in close planes of Euclidean 3-space. Our main result is a classification of these minimal surfaces, under certain…
We show the existence of a rational surface automorphism of positive entropy with a given number of Siegel disks. Moreover, among automorphisms obtained from quadratic birational maps on the projective plane fixing irreducible cubic curves,…
For quadratic polynomials with an indifferent fixed point with bounded type rotation number (they have a Siegel disk), much of what is known of their Julia set comes from the study of a quasiconformal model. The model is build from a…
The control of postcritical sets of quadratic polynomials with a neutral fixed point is a main ingredient in the remarkable work of Buff and Ch\'eritat to construct quadratic Julia sets with positive area. Based on the Inou-Shishikura…
The square peg problem asks whether every continuous curve in the plane that starts and ends at the same point without self-intersecting contains four distinct corners of some square. Toeplitz conjectured in 1911 that this is indeed the…
If $\a$ is an irrational number, we let $\{p_n/q_n\}_{n\geq 0}$, be the approximants given by its continued fraction expansion. The Bruno series $B(\a)$ is defined as $$B(\a)=\sum_{n\geq 0} \frac{\log q_{n+1}}{q_n}.$$ The quadratic…
We consider the differential equation that Zernike proposed to classify aberrations of wavefronts in a circular pupil, whose value at the boundary can be nonzero. On this account the quantum Zernike system, where that differential equation…
We study the quadratic integral points-that is, (S-)integral points defined over any extension of degree two of the base field-on a curve defined in P_3 by a system of two Pell equations. Such points belong to three families explicitly…
We introduce orthogonal ring patterns in the 2-sphere and in the hyperbolic plane, consisting of pairs of concentric circles, which generalize circle patterns. We show that their radii are described by a discrete integrable system. This is…
For planar polynomials systems the existence of an invariant algebraic curve limits the number of limit cycles not contained in this curve. We present a general approach to prove non existence of periodic orbits not contained in this given…
Toeplitz's Square Peg Problem asks whether every continuous simple closed curve in the plane contains the four vertices of a square. It has been proved for various classes of sufficiently smooth curves, some of which are dense, none of…
We prove the first inverse theorem for point--sphere incidence bounds over finite fields in dimensions $d \ge 3$, showing that near-extremality forces algebraic rigidity. While sharp upper bounds have been known for over a decade, the…
We prove the existence of at least two distinct short, simple orthogonal geodesic chords on a Riemannian 2-disk $M$ with convex boundary. The lengths of these curves are bounded in terms of the length of $\partial M$, the diameter of $M$,…
For every smooth Jordan curve $\gamma$ and rectangle $R$ in the Euclidean plane, we show that there exists a rectangle similar to $R$ whose vertices lie on $\gamma$. The proof relies on Shevchishin's theorem that the Klein bottle does not…
This paper complements the recent investigation of \cite{DM} on the asymptotic behavior of polynomials orthogonal over the interior of an analytic Jordan curve $L$. We study the specific case of $L=\{z= w-1 +(w-1)^{-1},\ |w|=R\}$, for some…
