We prove that the deformation space of geodesic triangulations of a flat torus is homotopy equivalent to a torus. This solves an open problem proposed by Connelly et al. in 1983, in the case of flat tori. A key tool of the proof is a…

It has been shown that spaces of geodesic triangulations of surfaces with negative curvature are contractible. Here we propose an approach aiming to prove that the spaces of geodesic triangulations of a surface with negative curvature are…

We give a short proof of the contractibility of the space of geodesic triangulations with fixed combinatorial type of a convex polygon in the Euclidean plane. Moreover, for any $n>0$, we show that there exists a space of geodesic…

We consider geometric triangulations of surfaces, i.e., triangulations whose edges can be realized by disjoint locally geodesic segments. We prove that the flip graph of geometric triangulations with fixed vertices of a flat torus or a…

In this paper, we determine the topology of the spaces of convex polyhedra inscribed in the unit $2$-sphere and the spaces of strictly Delaunay geodesic triangulations of the unit $2$-sphere. These spaces can be regarded as discretized…

In this paper, we are interested in flat metric structures with conical singularities on surfaces which are obtained by deforming translation surface structures. The moduli space of such flat metric structures can be viewed as some…

This paper concerns the global theory of properly embedded spacelike surfaces in three-dimensional Minkowski space in relation to their Gaussian curvature. We prove that every regular domain which is not a wedge is uniquely foliated by…

Tutte's celebrated barycentric embedding theorem describes a natural way to build straight-line embeddings (crossing-free drawings) of a (3-connected) planar graph: map the vertices of the outer face to the vertices of a convex polygon, and…

We study the topology of the space $\d\K^n$ of complete convex hypersurfaces of $\R^n$ which are homeomorphic to $\R^{n-1}$. In particular, using Minkowski sums, we construct a deformation retraction of $\d\K^n$ onto the Grassmannian space…

Let M be a complete finite-volume hyperbolic 3-manifold with compact non-empty geodesic boundary and k toric cusps, and let T be a geometric partially truncated triangulation of M. We show that the variety of solutions of consistency…

We prove prove a bridge principle at infinity for area-minimizing surfaces in the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^3$, and we use it to prove that any open, connected, orientable surface can be properly embedded in $\mathbb{H}^3$ as an…

We study infinitesimal conformal deformations of a triangulated surface in Euclidean space and investigate the change in its extrinsic geometry. A deformation of vertices is conformal if it preserves length cross-ratios. On one hand,…

We prove existence of thick geodesic triangulations of hyperbolic 3-manifolds and use this to prove existence of universal bounds on the principal curvatures of surfaces embedded in hyperbolic 3-manifolds.

We give a universal upper bound for the total curvature of minimizing geodesic on a convex surface in the Euclidean space.

A well-known theorem of Wolpert shows that the Weil-Petersson symplectic form on Teichm\"uller space, computed on two infinitesimal twists along simple closed geodesics on a fixed hyperbolic surface, equals the sum of the cosines of the…

We show that closed surfaces with minimal total absolute curvature in Cartan-Hadamard 3-manifolds bound flat convex bodies. This generalizes Chern-Lashof's theorem for surfaces in Euclidean space and solves a problem posed by Gromov in…

We study the principal curvatures of properly embedded constant mean curvature hypersurfaces in the Anti-de Sitter space $\mathbb{H}^{n,1}$. We generalize the notion of convex hull and give an upper bound on the principal curvatures which…

We prove a Gauss-Bonnet formula for the extrinsic curvature of complete surfaces in hyperbolic space under some assumptions on the asymptotic behaviour. The result is given in terms of the measure of geodesics intersecting the surface…

We prove that directions of closed geodesics in every dilation surface form a dense subset of the circle. The proof draws on a study of the degenerations of the Delaunay triangulation of dilation surfaces under the action of Teichm\"{u}ller…

We revisit the classical results of the formation of trapped surfaces for the Einstein vacuum equation relying on the geodesic foliation, rather than the double null foliation used in all previous results, starting with the seminal work of…
