In this paper, we generalize the polar transforms of spacelike isothermic surfaces in $Q^4_1$ to n-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian space forms $Q^n_r$. We show that there exist $c-$polar spacelike isothermic surfaces derived from a spacelike…
A new differentiable sphere theorem is obtained from the view of submanifold geometry. An important scalar is defined by the scalar curvature and the mean curvature of an oriented complete submanifold $M^n$ in a space form $F^{n+p}(c)$ with…
In analogy with classical submanifold theory, we introduce morphisms of real metric calculi together with noncommutative embeddings. We show that basic concepts, such as the second fundamental form and the Weingarten map, translate into the…
Spacetime geometry is twisted (deformed) into noncommutative spacetime geometry, where functions and tensors are now star-multiplied. Consistently, spacetime diffeomorhisms are twisted into noncommutative diffeomorphisms. Their deformed Lie…
Isothermic surfaces are surfaces which allow a conformal curvature line parametrisation. They form an integrable system, and Darboux transforms of isothermic surfaces obey Bianchi permutability: for two distinct spectral parameters the…
We prove Hoelder continuity for n/2-harmonic maps from subsets of Rn into a sphere. This extends a recent one-dimensional result by F. Da Lio and T. Riviere to arbitrary dimensions. The proof relies on compensation effects which we quantify…
The interplay between derivations and algebraic structures has been a subject of significant interest and exploration. Inspired by Yau's twist and the Leibniz rule, we investigate the formal deformation of twisted Lie algebras by invertible…
The general framework of Legendre transformation is extended to the case of symplectic groupoids, using an appropriate generalization of the notion of generating function (of a Lagrangian submanifold).
Using minimal hypersurfaces, we obtain topological obstructions to admitting complete metrics with positive scalar curvature on a given class of non-compact n-manifolds with n less than 8. We show that the Liouville theorem for a locally…
We investigate basic features of Bianchi's B\"acklund transformation of quadrics to see if it can be obtained under weaker assumptions and if it can be generalized to deformations of other surfaces.
In this paper we extend Yau's celebrated Liouville theorem to the biharmonic case. Namely, we show that in a complete Riemannian manifold with a pole and nonnegative Ricci curvature, any biharmonic function of subquadratic growth must be…
After the surface theory of M\"obius geometry, this study concerns a pair of conformally immersed surfaces in $n$-sphere. Two new invariants $\theta$ and $\rho$ associated with them are introduced as well as the notion of touch and…
The famous theorems of Cartan, related to the axiom of $r$-planes, and Leung-Nomizu about the axiom of $r$-spheres were extended to K\"ahler geometry by several authors. In this paper we replace the strong notions of totally geodesic…
It is known, that every function on the unit sphere in $\bbr^n$, which is invariant under rotations about some coordinate axis, is completely determined by a function of one variable. Similar results, when invariance of a function reduces…
We generalize the Lax pair and B\"acklund transformations for Liouville and Toda field theories as well as their supersymmetric generalizations, to the case of arbitrary Riemann surfaces. We make use of the fact that Toda field theory…
General relativity does not allow one to specify the topology of space, leaving the possibility that space is multiply rather than simply connected. We review the main mathematical properties of multiply connected spaces, and the different…
In this lecture we review apprearance of the Riemann-Roch Theorem in classical function theory, Algebraic topology, in theory of pseudo-differential operators and finally in noncommutative geometry. We show also it usefulness in many…
This exposition gives an introduction to the theory of surfaces in Laguerre geometry and surveys some results, mostly obtained by the authors, about three important classes of surfaces in Laguerre geometry, namely L-isothermic, L-minimal,…
Space-times which allow a slicing into homogeneous spatial hypersurfaces generalize the usual Bianchi models. One knows already that in these models the Bianchi type may change with time. Here we show which of the changes really appear. To…
The main purpose of the paper is to demonstrate that condition of invariance with respect to the Legendre transformations allows effectively isolate the class of integrable difference equations on the triangular lattice, which can be…
