We show that recently constructed invariants of 3-dimensional manifolds and of hyperkaehler manifolds (L.Rozansky and E.Witten, hep-th/9612216) come from characteristic classes of foliations and from Gelfand-Fuks cohomology. In particular,…

A new calculus on fractal curves, such as the von Koch curve, is formulated. We define a Riemann-like integral along a fractal curve F, called F-alpha-integral, where alpha is the dimension of F. A derivative along the fractal curve called…

This paper re-organizes Vojta's proof of the Mordell conjecture (i.e. Faltings' theorem) in terms of Arakelov geometry. A new ingredient is to replace an application of Gillet--Soule's arithmetic Riemannn--Roch theorem by that of Yuan's…

We extend the notion of Ulam floating sets from convex bodies to Ulam floating functions. We use the Ulam floating functions to derive a new variational formula for the affine surface area of log-concave functions.

We derive explicit formulas for the reconstruction of a function from its integrals over a family of spheres, or for the inversion of the spherical mean Radon transform. Such formulas are important for problems of thermo- and photo-…

We formulate an isoperimetric deformation of curves on the Minkowski plane, which is governed by the defocusing mKdV equation. Two classes of exact solutions to the defocusing mKdV equation are also presented in terms of the $\tau$…

We introduce variational approximations for curve evolutions in two-dimensional Riemannian manifolds that are conformally flat, i.e.\ conformally equivalent to the Euclidean space. Examples include the hyperbolic plane, the hyperbolic disk,…

New index transforms, involving squares of Kelvin functions, are investigated. Mapping properties and inversion formulas are established for these transforms in Lebesgue spaces. The results are applied to solve a boundary value problem on…

We prove explicit bounds on canonical Green functions of Riemann surfaces obtained as compactifications of quotients of the upper half-plane by Fuchsian groups.

Estimates of some integrals related to variations of smooth functions are presented.

Associated with a prime homology class $\beta \in P_2(X,\Z)$ (i.e. $\beta=p\alpha$ and $\alpha \in H_2(X,\Z)$ imply $p=1$ or $p$ is an odd prime) on a symplectic three-manifold with vanishing first Chern class, we count the embedded…

Generalizing a construction of A. Weil, we introduce a topological invariant for flows on compact, connected, finite dimensional, abelian, topological groups. We calculate this invariant for some examples and compare the invariant with…

We develop a Hodge theoretic invariant for families of projective manifolds that measures the potential failure of an Arakelov-type inequality in higher dimensions, one that naturally generalizes the classical Arakelov inequality over…

In this paper, we discuss some problems of elementary plane differential geometry and kinematics. Although the results are not new, the consistent use of complex-valued functions (plane curves) of a real variable (parameter) allows to…

Invariant Lagrangians yield invariant Euler-Lagrange equations, and it was discussed in the literature how to compute those using various local methods. The focus of this paper is on global algebraic differential invariants. In this case…

In this article, we compute $\delta$-invariant of Du Val del Pezzo surfaces of degree $3$.

We study the variational problem for $N$-parallel curves on a Finslerian surface by means of Exterior Differential Systems using Griffiths' method. We obtain the conditions when these curves are extremals of a length functional and write…

We present an algorithm for computing equations of canonically embedded Riemann surfaces with automorphisms. A variant of this algorithm with many heuristic improvements is used to produce equations of Riemann surfaces $X$ with large…

Properties of the recently reported homogeneous Hilbert curves are deduced and reported. The nature of the affine transformations involved in the construction of the Hilbert curves is explored. The analytical representation of proper and…

We give a complete factorization of the invariant factors of resultant matrices built from birational parameterizations of rational plane curves in terms of the singular points of the curve and their multiplicity graph. This allows us to…
