Let $f$ be an $R$-closed homeomorphism on a connected orientable closed surface $M$. In this paper, we show that If $M$ has genus more than one, then each minimal set is either a periodic orbit or an extension of a Cantor set. If $M =…

We show that any nonzero orbit under a noncompact, simple, irreducible linear group is dense in the Bohr compactification of the ambient space.

Cosmic shear, galaxy clustering, and the abundance of massive halos each probe the large-scale structure of the Universe in complementary ways. We present cosmological constraints from the joint analysis of the three probes, building on the…

We study surfaces in Euclidean space ${\mathbb R}^3$ that are minimal for a log-linear density $\phi(x,y,z)=\alpha x+\beta y+\gamma y$, where $\alpha,\beta,\gamma$ are real numbers not all zero. We prove that if a surface is $\phi$-minimal…

We establish an epsilon-regularity theorem at points in the free boundary of almost-minimizers of the energy $\mathrm{Per}_{w}(E)=\int_{\partial^*E}w\,\mathrm{d} {\mathscr{H}}^{n-1}$, where $w$ is a weight asymptotic to…

We investigate the set of $x \in S^1$ such that for every positive integer $N$, the first $N$ points in the orbit of $x$ under rotation by irrational $\theta$ contain at least as many values in the interval $[0,1/2]$ as in the complement.…

We develop a new technique for constructing sparse graphs that allow us to prove near-linear lower bounds on the round complexity of computing distances in the CONGEST model. Specifically, we show an $\widetilde{\Omega}(n)$ lower bound for…

Lawson and Osserman proved that the Dirichlet problem for the minimal surface system is not always solvable in the class of Lipschitz maps. However, it is known that minimizing sequences (for area) of Lipschitz graphs converge to objects…

We consider a nematic liquid crystal occupying the three-dimensional domain in the exterior of a spherical colloid particle. The nematic is subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions that enforce orthogonal attachment of nematic molecules to…

Given a Coxeter system $(W,S)$ and a multiparameter $\mathbf{q}$ of real numbers indexed by $S$, one can define the weighted $L^2$-cohomology groups and associate to them a nonnegative real number called the weighted $L^2$-Betti number. We…

Large spin systems as given by magnetic macromolecules or two-dimensional spin arrays rule out an exact diagonalization of the Hamiltonian. Nevertheless, it is possible to derive upper and lower bounds of the minimal energies, i.e. the…

We consider the homotopy types of $PD_4$-complexes $X$ with fundamental group $\pi$ such that $c.d.\pi=2$ and $\pi$ has one end. Let $\beta=\beta_2(\pi;F_2)$ and $w=w_1(X)$. Our main result is that (modulo two technical conditions on…

Let $W$ be a finite Coxeter group. We classify the reflection subgroups of $W$ up to conjugacy and give necessary and sufficient conditions for the map that assigns to a reflection subgroup $R$ of $W$ the conjugacy class of its Coxeter…

We revisit the classic Maximum $k$-Coverage problem: Determine the largest number $t$ of elements that can be covered by choosing $k$ sets from a given family $\mathcal{F} = \{S_1,\dots, S_n\}$ of a size-$u$ universe. A notable special case…

We introduce Coxeter-sortable elements of a Coxeter group W. For finite W, we give bijective proofs that Coxeter-sortable elements are equinumerous with clusters and with noncrossing partitions. We characterize Coxeter-sortable elements in…

This paper considers the dynamics of scattering of planetesimals or planetary embryos by a planet on a circumstellar orbit. We classify six regions in the planet's mass versus semimajor axis parameter space according to the dominant outcome…

Let $(W,S)$ be a Coxeter system of type $A$, so that $W$ can be identified with the symmetric group $\mathrm{Sym}(n)$ for some positive integer $n$ and $S$ with the set of simple transpositions $\{\,(i,i+1)\mid 1\leqslant i\leqslant…

Let W be an irreducible, finitely generated Coxeter group. The geometric representation provides an discrete embedding in the orthogonal group of the so-called Tits form. One can look at the representation modulo the kernel of this form; we…
