The Reeb space of a continuous function is the space of connected components of the level sets. In this paper we characterize those smooth functions on closed manifolds whose Reeb spaces have the structure of a finite graph. We also give…
We prove algebraic analogues of the facts that a curve on a surface with self-intersection number zero is homotopic to a cover of a simple curve, and that two simple curves on a surface with intersection number zero can be isotoped to be…
In this paper we generalize an argument of Neukirch from birational anabelian geometry to the case of arithmetic curves. In contrast to the function field case, it seems to be more complicate to describe the position of decomposition groups…
In this short survey we give a description of the theta functions of algebraic curves, half-integer theta-nulls, and the fundamental theta functions. We describe how to determine such fundamental theta functions and describe the components…
We present a simple proof of the surface classification theorem using normal curves. This proof is analogous to Kneser's and Milnor's proof of the existence and uniqueness of the prime decomposition of 3-manifolds. In particular, we do not…
In this paper, we consider deformations of singular complex curves on complex surfaces. Despite the fundamental nature of the problem, little seems to be known for curves on general surfaces. Let $C\subset S$ be a complete integral curve on…
Analytic curves are classified w.r.t. their symmetry under a regular and separately analytic Lie group action on an analytic manifold. We show that an analytic curve is either exponential or splits into countably many analytic immersive…
We define a class of plane curves which are close to the free divisors and such that conjecturally it contains the class of rational cuspidal curves. Using a recent result by U. Walther we show that any unicuspidal rational curve with a…
The Reeb space of a function or a map on a manifold is defined as the space of all connected components of preimages and represents the manifold compactly. In fact, Reeb spaces are fundamental and useful tools in geometric theory of…
We classify isoparametric functions on Damek-Ricci spaces which can be written in terms of the standard coordinates $(v,z,t)$ on the half-space model as a polynomial function divided by $t$. Regular level sets of the functions in our…
We introduce a class of regular continuous functions on the closed 2-disk and show that each function from this class is topologically conjugate to a linear function defined on a sqare, a closed half-disk or a closed disk.
Functionals (i.e. functions of functions) are widely used in quantum field theory and solid-state physics. In this paper, functionals are given a rigorous mathematical framework and their main properties are described. The choice of the…
We investigate uniqueness problems for an entire function that shares two small functions of finite order with their difference operators. In particular, we give a generalization of a result in $[2]$.
This paper studies first the differential inequalities that make it possible to build a global theory of pseudo-holomorphic functions in the case of one or several complex variables. In the case of one complex dimension, we prove that the…
We prove that some holomorphic functions on the moduli space of tori have only simple zeros. Instead of computing the derivative with respect to the moduli parameter $\tau$, we introduce a conceptual proof by applying Painlev\'{e} VI\…
Reeb spaces of real-valued functions on manifolds are the spaces of all connected components (contours) of level sets and endowed with the natural quotient topology. They have been fundamental and strong tools in investigating manifolds via…
We consider spaces of plane curves in the setting of algebraic geometry and of singularity theory. On one hand there are the complete linear systems, on the other we consider unfolding spaces of bivariate polynomials of Brieskorn-Pham type.…
Reeb spaces of continuous real-valued functions on topological spaces are fundamental and strong tools in investigating the spaces. The Reeb space is the natural quotient space of the space of the domain represented by connected components…
A family of polynomials linked to the set of the deltoid tangents and its associated algebraic hypersurfaces has been presented in recent years. In this paper we study some related maximising and free plane curves. We also analyse the…
Thom (residual) polynomials in characteristic classes are used in the analysis of geometry of functional spaces. They serve as a tool in description of classes Poincar\'e dual to subvarieties of functions of prescribed types. We give…
