We study the case when solution of an ODE at a given initial condition fail to be unique and investigate what are the possible time-1 sections of the `solution funnel'. Along the way we give construction of a natural complete metric on the…

Let C be a real-analytic Jordan curve in $R^3$. Then C cannot bound infinitely many disk-type minimal surfaces which provide relative minima of area.

We construct a Jordan curve $\Gamma \subset \mathbb{C}$ so that for any rectifiable arc $\sigma$ with endpoints in distinct complementary components of $\Gamma$, $H^1(\sigma \cap \Gamma) > 0$.

Let $W$ be a quasiprojective variety over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Assume that $W$ is birational to a product of a smooth projective variety $A$ and the projective line. We prove that if $A$ contains no rational…

In this paper, we consider the realization of configuration of limit cycles of piecewise linear systems on the plane. We show that any configuration of Jordan curves can be realized by a discontinuous piecewise linear system with two zones…

For a Jordan domain in the plane the length metric space of points connected to an interior point by a curve of finite length is a CAT(0)space and Gromov hyperbolic. With respect to the cone topology, that space plus its boundary at…

We develop a connection between the inscribed square problem and the question of understanding relation avoiding paths in a complex vector space. Our main theorem is that a Jordan curve with no inscribed squares would have a seemingly…

We prove that the group of birational automorphisms of a geometrically irreducible algebraic surface over a finite field is Jordan. We show that the analogous statement fails in higher dimensions. Finally, we prove that groups of birational…

We consider self-similar Jordan arcs $\gamma$ in $R^d$, different from a line segment and show that they cannot be projected to a line bijectively. Moreover, we show that the set of points $x\in\gamma$, for which there is a hyperplane,…

We consider Jordan curves of the form $\gamma=\cup_{j=1}^n \gamma_j$ on the Riemann sphere for which each $\gamma_j$ is a hyperbolic geodesic in $(\widehat{\mathbb C} \smallsetminus \gamma)\cup \gamma_j$. These Jordan curves are…

Let $J$ be a simple closed curve in $\mathbb R^{k}$ $(k\geq2)$ that is differentiable with non-zero derivative at a point $A_0\in J$. For a tuple of positive reals $a_1,\cdots,a_n$ $(n\geq3)$, each of which is less than the sum of the…

We prove that every Jordan curve in $\mathbb{R}^2$ inscribes uncountably many rhombi. No regularity condition is assumed on the Jordan curve.

We study a notion of "width" for Jordan curves in $\mathbb{CP}^1$, paying special attention to the class of quasicircles. The width of a Jordan curve is defined in terms of the geometry of its convex hull in hyperbolic three-space. A…

Jordan analytic curves which are invariant under rational functions are studied

We elucidate the geometry of matrix models based on simple formally real Jordan algebras. Such Jordan algebras give rise to a nonassociative geometry that is a generalization of Lorentzian geometry. We emphasize constructions for the…

A new elementary nonstandard proof of the Jordan curve theorem is given. The proof (the technical part consists of 4 pages) is self-contained, except for the Jordan theorem for polygons taken for granted.

We compute the exact values of the Jordan constants of abelian surfaces over finite fields.

A square matrix $A$ has the usual Jordan canonical form that describes the structure of $A$ via eigenvalues and the corresponding Jordan blocks. If $A$ is a linear relation in a finite-dimensional linear space ${\mathfrak H}$ (i.e., $A$ is…

The aim of this article is to start a study of Jordan derivations in finite endomorphism semirings.

We construct via Fra\"iss\'e amalgamation an $\omega$-categorical structure whose automorphism group is an infinite oligomorphic Jordan primitive permutation group preserving a `limit of $D$-relations'. The construction is based on a…
