A map from a manifold to a Euclidean space is said to be k-regular if the image of any distinct k points are linearly independent. In this paper, we give some lower bounds of the dimension of the ambient Euclidean space for complex…

In this paper, I prove a splitting theorem for equifocal submanifolds with non-flat section in a simply connected symmetric space of compact type. Also, by using the splitting theorem, I prove that the sections of equifocal submanifolds…

We study the shapes of compact connected 3-manifolds with connected smooth boundary in the 3-dimensional Euclidean space $\boldsymbol{R}^3$. We call them bounded domains. Since compact connected surfaces in $\boldsymbol{R}^3$ bound unique…

We study the supersymmetric extensions of the $O(3)$ $\sigma$-model in $1+1$ and $2+1$ dimensions. We show that it is possible to construct non-equivalent supersymmetric versions of a given model sharing the same bosonic sector and free…

We investigate asymmetric orbifold models constructed from non-supersymmetric heterotic strings. We systematically classify the asymmetric orbifold models with standard embeddings and present a list of asymmetric orbifolds which are…

Using the Cartan-Kahler theory, and results on real algebraic structures, we prove two embedding theorems. First, the interior of a smooth, compact 3-manifold may be isometrically embedded into a G_2-manifold as an associative submanifold.…

In the present paper, we prove that two discrete rectangular tori are isospectral if and only if they are isomorphic.

The Riemann Theorem states, that for any nontrivial connected and simply connected domain on the Riemann sphere there exists some its conformal bijection to the exterior of the unit disk. In this paper we find an explicit form of this map…

We consider the interpretation in classical geometry of conformal field theories constructed from orbifolds with discrete torsion. In examples we can analyze, these spacetimes contain ``stringy regions'' that from a classical point of view…

We construct bi-Lipschitz embeddings into Euclidean space for manifolds and orbifolds of bounded diameter and curvature. The distortion and dimension of such embeddings is bounded by diameter, curvature and dimension alone. Our results also…

We consider D3 branes at orbifolded conifold singularities which are not quotient singularities. We use toric geometry and gauged linear sigma model to study the moduli space of the gauge theories on the D3 branes. We find that…

We prove Arnol'd's chord conjecture for all Legendrian submanifolds of cosphere bundles of closed manifolds isotopic to conormal bundles of closed submanifolds. Our method of proof involves an isomorphism between wrapped Floer cohomology…

We study the spaces of string links and homotopy string links in an arbitrary manifold using multivariable manifold calculus of functors. We construct multi-cosimplicial models for both spaces and deduce certain convergence properties of…

The title is self-explanatory. We aim to give an easy to read and self-contained introduction to the field of harmonic manifolds. Only basic knowledge of Riemannian geometry is required. After we gave the definition of harmonicity and…

Let $\pi:E\to M$ be a vector bundle over a simply connected manifold and $\nabla$ a linear connection in $\pi$. Let $\sigma: U \rightarrow E$ be a $\nabla$-parallel section of $\pi$ defined on a connected open subset $U$ of $M$. We give…

We have developed a theory of the one-phonon intraband resonance Raman scattering (IRRS) in anisotropic quantum dots subjected to an arbitrarily directed magnetic field. The differential Raman cross section is obtained. The resonance…

We show that one can reconstruct the shape of a room with planar walls from the first-order echoes received by four non-planar microphones placed on a drone with generic position and orientation. Both the cases where the source is located…

Given any connected, open 3-manifold $U$ having finitely many ends, a non-compact 3-manifold $M$ is constructed having the following properties: the interior of $M$ is homeomorphic to $U$; the boundary of $M$ is the disjoint union of…

The theory of surfaces in Euclidean space can be naturally formulated in the more general context of Legendre surfaces into the space of contact elements. We address the question of deformability of Legendre surfaces with respect to the…

The present paper finds new necessary and sufficient conditions for $6$-dimensional closed and simply-connected manifolds of certain classes to admit special generic maps into certain Euclidean spaces. The class of special generic maps…
