A complete explanation of the synthesis of metal-catalyst nanoparticles, and the subsequent nucleation and growth of bundles of C-SWNTs is introduced using a novel model. It is shown that the synthesis process leads to the formation of a…
For every finitely generated abelian group G, we construct an irreducible open 3-manifold $M_{G}$ whose end set is homeomorphic to a Cantor set and with end homogeneity group of $M_{G}$ isomorphic to G. The end homogeneity group is the…
A group $\Gamma$ with a family of subgroups $\mathbb{P}$ is relatively hyperbolic if $\Gamma$ admits a cusp-uniform action on a proper $\delta$--hyperbolic space. We show that any two such spaces for a given group pair are quasi-isometric,…
Smooth functions $f:G\to E$ from a topological group $G$ to a locally convex space $E$ were considered by Riss (1953), Boseck, Czichowski and Rudolph (1981), Belti\c{t}\u{a} and Nicolae (2015), and others, in varying degrees of generality.…
In this work we introduce a new combinatorial notion of boundary $\Re C$ of an $\omega$-dimensional cubing $C$. $\Re C$ is defined to be the set of almost-equality classes of ultrafilters on the standard system of halfspaces of $C$, endowed…
We study the compactification of nonautonomous systems with autonomous limits and related dynamics. Although the $C^{1}$ extension of the compactification was well established, a great number of problems arising in bifurcation and stability…
Two groups have a common model geometry if they act properly and cocompactly by isometries on the same proper geodesic metric space. The Milnor-Schwarz lemma implies that groups with a common model geometry are quasi-isometric; however, the…
The purpose of this note is twofold. In the first part we observe that two finitely generated non-amenable groups are quasi-isometric if and only if they admit topologically orbit equivalent Cantor minimal actions. In particular, free…
Let $G$ be a finitely generated group. Cashen and Mackay proved that if the contracting boundary of $G$ with the topology of fellow travelling quasi-geodesics is compact then $G$ is a hyperbolic group. Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a finite…
For convex domains with $C^{1,\epsilon}$ boundary we give a precise description of the automorphism group: if an orbit of the automorphism group accumulates on at least two different closed complex faces of the boundary, then the…
We study geometric rigidity of a class of fractals, which is slightly larger than the collection of self-conformal sets. Namely, using a new method, we shall prove that a set of this class is contained in a smooth submanifold or is totally…
This paper develops a theory of conformal density at infinity for groups with contracting elements. We start by introducing a class of convergence boundary encompassing many known hyperbolic-like boundaries, on which a detailed study of…
We study the homology group of the Milnor fiber boundary of a hyperplane arrangement in $\mathbb{C}^{3}$. By the work of N\'emethi--Szil\'ard, the homeomorphism type of the Milnor fiber boundary is combinatorially determined, and an…
We study classes of right-angled Coxeter groups with respect to the strong submodel relation of parabolic subgroup. We show that the class of all right-angled Coxeter group is not smooth, and establish some general combinatorial criteria…
This paper establishes the geometric rigidity of certain holomorphic correspondences in the family $(w-c)^q=z^p,$ whose post-critical set is finite in any bounded domain of $\mathbb{C}.$ In spite of being rigid on the sphere, such…
The fusion orbit category $\overline{\mathcal F _{\mathcal C}} (G)$ of a discrete group $G$ over a collection $\mathcal C$ is the category whose objects are the subgroups $H$ in $\mathcal C$, and whose morphisms $H \to K$ are given by the…
We prove a Corona type theorem with bounds for the Sarason algebra $H^\infty+C$ and determine its spectral characteristics. We also determine the Bass, the dense, and the topological stable ranks of $H^\infty+C$.
The n-solvable filtration $\{\mathcal{F}_n\}_{n=0}^\infty$ of the smooth knot concordance group (denoted by $\mathcal{C}$), due to Cochran-Orr-Teichner, has been instrumental in the study of knot concordance in recent years. Part of its…
In this paper, the following three are shown. (1) For a $C^\infty$ convex integrand $\gamma: S^n\to \mathbb{R}_+$, its dual convex integrand $\delta: S^n\to \mathbb{R}_+$ is of class $C^\infty$. (2) For a stable convex integrand $\gamma:…
For any reduced free product $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra $(A, \varphi) =(A_1, \varphi_1) \star (A_2, \varphi_2)$, we prove a boundary rigidity result for the embedding of $A$ into its associated $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra $\Delta \mathbf{T}(A,…
