We look for Riemann surfaces whose automorphism group acts transitively on the Weierstrass points. We concentrate on hyperelliptic surfaces, surfaces with PSL(2, q) as automorphism group, Platonic surfaces and Fermat curves.

The aim of the present paper is to clarify the relationship between immersions of surfaces and solutions of the inhomogeneous Dirac equation. The main idea leading to the description of a surface M^2 by a spinor field is the observation…

Minimal surfaces play a fundamental role in differential geometry, with applications spanning physics, material science, and geometric design. In this paper, we explore a novel quaternionic representation of minimal surfaces, drawing an…

The purpose of this short note is to relate a representation formula due to the Author and P. Romon for Lagrangian surfaces (see math.DG/0009202) to a more general Weierstrass representation type formula found by Konopelchenko for surfaces…

In this survey we focus on a special class of homogeneous manifolds called Thurston geometries. We give special attention to the four-dimensional Thurston geometries with 4 or 5-dimensional isometry group which are not a product (except for…

In this paper, starting from pure group-theoretical point of view, we develop a regular approach to describing particles with different spins in the framework of a theory of scalar fields on the Poincare group. Such fields can be considered…

The Gauss map of non-degenerate surfaces in the three-dimensional Minkowski space are viewed as dynamical fields of the two-dimensional O(2,1) Nonlinear Sigma Model. In this setting, the moduli space of solutions with rotational symmetry is…

In this paper we study some geometric properties of surfaces in the Heisenberg group, $\mathcal{H}_{3}.$ We obtain, using the Gauss map for Lie groups, a partial classification of minimal graphs in $\mathcal{H}_{3}.$ We also proof the non…

We prove that if $\Sigma$ is a closed surface of genus at least 3 and $G$ is a split real semisimple Lie group of rank at least $3$ acting faithfully by isometries on a symmetric space $N$, then there exists a Hitchin representation…

We initiate the study of characters of surface groups and their corresponding tracial representations. We show that any tracial representation can be approximated arbitrarily well in the Wasserstein topology by factorial tracial…

We study some geometrical aspects of two dimensional orientable surfaces arrising from the study of CP^N sigma models. To this aim we employ an identification of R^(N(N+2)) with the Lie algebra su(N+1) by means of which we construct a…

We prove lower Dirac eigenvalue bounds for closed surfaces with a spin structure whose Arf invariant equals 1. Besides the area only one geometric quantity enters in these estimates, the spin-cut-diameter which depends on the choice of spin…

We consider Lie minimal surfaces, the critical points of the simplest Lie sphere invariant energy, in Riemannian space forms. These surfaces can be characterized via their Euler-Lagrange equations, which take the form of differential…

Odd-dimensional Riemannian spaces that are non-orientable, but have a pin structure, require the consideration of the twisted adjoint representation of the corresponding pin group. It is shown here how the Dirac operator should be modified,…
