Toeplitz conjectured that any simple planar loop inscribes a square. Here we prove variants of Toeplitz' square peg problem. We prove Hadwiger's 1971 conjecture that any simple loop in $3$-space inscribes a parallelogram. We show that any…

We investigate the set of uniform limits of polynomials on any closed Jordan domain with respect to the chordal metric $\chi$ on $\mathbb{C}\cup\{\infty \}$. We conclude that Mergelyan's Theorem may be extended to the case of uniform…

Let $(M,g)$ be a closed, connected and orientable Riemannian manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature. Consider a Lagrangian $L(x,v):TM\to\R$ defined by $L(x,v):=\frac 12g_x(v,v)-\omega(v)+c$, where $c\in\R$ and $\omega$ is a closed…

We prove that for any Riemannian metric $g$ on a closed orientable surface $\Sigma$ and any spacelike embedding $f:\Sigma \rightarrow M$ in a pseudo-Riemannian manifold $(M,h)$, the embedding $f$ can be $C^{0}$-approximated by a smooth…

The possibility of getting a Radon-Nikodym type theorem and a Lebesgue-like decomposition for a non necessarily positive sesquilinear $\Omega$ form defined on a vector space $\mathcal D$, with respect to a given positive form $\Theta$…

We classify the set of quadrilaterals that can be inscribed in convex Jordan curves, in the continuous as well as in the smooth case. This answers a question of Makeev in the special case of convex curves. The difficulty of this problem…

A well-known theorem of Rodin \& Sullivan, previously conjectured by Thurston, states that the circle packing of the intersection of a lattice with a simply connected planar domain $\Omega$ into the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ converges to a…

In this article, we generalize Eberlein's Rigidity Theorem to the singular case, namely, one of the spaces is only assumed to be a CAT(0) topological manifold. As a corollary, we get that any compact irreducible but locally reducible…

This is an investigation into a classification of embeddings of a surface in Euclidean $3$-space. Specifically, we consider $\mathbb{R}^3$ as having the product structure $\mathbb{R}^2 \times \mathbb{R}$ and let $\pi:\mathbb{R}^2 \times…

Let $E\subseteq \mathbb{P}^2$ be a complex rational cuspidal curve contained in the projective plane and let $(X,D)\to (\mathbb{P}^2,E)$ be the minimal log resolution of singularities. Applying the log minimal model program to…

The cyclohedron (Bott-Taubes polytope) arises both as the polyhedral realization of the poset of all cyclic bracketings of a circular word and as an essential part of the Fulton-MacPherson compactification of the configuration space of n…

We prove that for any element in the $\gamma$-completion of the space of smooth compact exact Lagrangian submanifolds of a cotangent bundle, if its $\gamma$-support is a smooth Lagrangian submanifold, then the element itself is a smooth…

Let $\mathbb{G}$ be any Carnot group. We prove that, if a subset of $\mathbb{G}$ is contained in a rectifiable curve, then it satisfies Peter Jones' geometric lemma with some natural modifications. We thus prove one direction of the…

Let $(M, g)$ be a closed Riemannian manifold of dimension $5$. Assume that $(M, g)$ is not conformally equivalent to the round sphere. If the scalar curvature $R_g\geq 0$ and the $Q$-curvature $Q_g\geq 0$ on $M$ with $Q_g(p)>0$ for some…

For collapsing sequences of Riemannian manifolds which satisfy a uniform lower Ricci curvature bound it is shown that there is a sequence of scales such that for a set of good base points of large measure the pointed rescaled manifolds…

A set in the Euclidean plane is constructed whose image under the classical Radon transform is Lipschitz in every direction. It is also shown that, under mild hypotheses, for any such set the function which maps a direction to the…

Consider a curve $\Gamma$ in a domain $D$ in the plane $\boldsymbol R^2$. Thinking of $D$ as a piece of paper, one can make a curved folding $P$ in the Euclidean space $\boldsymbol R^3$. The singular set $C$ of $P$ as a space curve is…

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…

For a {\em simple Euclidean Jordan algebra}, let $\mathfrak{co}$ be its conformal algebra, $\mathscr P$ be the manifold consisting of its semi-positive rank-one elements, $C^\infty(\mathscr P)$ be the space of complex-valued smooth…

We prove that a 2-convex closed surface $S\subset E^4$ in the four-dimensional Euclidean space $E^4$, which is either $C^2$-smooth or polyhedral, provided that each vertex is incident to at most five edges, admits a mapping of degree one to…
