We construct a family of pairs of non-isotopic symplectic surfaces in the standard symplectic $4$-disk such that they are bounded by the same transverse knot in the standard contact $3$-sphere and fundamental groups of their complements are…

Let $S$ be a smooth hypersurface properly embedded in $\mathbb R^N$ with $N \geq 3$ and consider its tubular neighborhood $\mathcal N$. We show that, if a heat flow over $\mathcal N$ with appropriate initial and boundary conditions has $S$…

We introduce a method to detect exotic surfaces without explicitly using a smooth 4-manifold invariant or an invariant of a 4-manifold-surface pair in the construction. Our main tools are two versions of families (Seiberg-Witten)…

An isotropic elastic half space is prestrained so that two of the principal axes of strain lie in the bounding plane, which itself remains free of traction. The material is subject to an isotropic constraint of arbitrary nature. A surface…

While the notion of isometric deformations of surfaces is straightforward for surfaces with Euclidean metric, a corresponding notion in isotropic space has been missing. By making Gauss' Theorema Egregium a necessary condition we develop a…

Given a closed, smooth 4-manifold $X$ and self-diffeomorphism $f$ that is topologically pseudo-isotopic to the identity, we study the question of whether $f$ is moreover smoothly pseudo-isotopic to the identity. If the fundamental group of…

The moduli space of complex cubic surfaces has three different, but isomorphic, compact realizations: as a GIT quotient, as a Baily--Borel compactification of a ball quotient, and as a compactified $K$-moduli space. From all three…

It is well known that the vertices of any Euclidean simplicial regular polytope determine an optimal packing of equal spherical balls. We prove a stability version of optimal order of this result.

Let $A=E \times E_{ss}$ be a principally polarized almost ordinary split abelian surface over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$. We give asymptotic upper and lower bounds on the number of principally polarized abelian surfaces over…

We describe a procedure to construct infinite sets of pairwise smoothly inequivalent 2-spheres in simply connected 4-manifolds, which are topologically isotopic and whose complement has a prescribed fundamental group that satisfies some…

We study the number and the length of systoles on complete finite area orientable hyperbolic surfaces. In particular, we prove upper bounds on the number of systoles that a surface can have (the so-called kissing number for hyperbolic…

A thermodynamically consistent two-phase Stefan problem with temperature-dependent surface tension and with or without kinetic undercooling is studied. It is shown that these problems generate local semiflows in well-defined state…

This article is concerned with locally flatly immersed surfaces in simply-connected $4$-manifolds where the complement of the surface has fundamental group $\mathbb{Z}$. Once the genus and number of double points are fixed, we classify such…

The stability of a system of $N$ equal sized mutually gravitating spheres resting on each other in a straight line and rotating in inertial space is considered. This is a generalization of the "Euler Resting" configurations previously…

This thesis aims at investigating the first steps toward an unconditionally stable space-time isogeometric method, based on splines of maximal regularity, for the linear acoustic wave equation. The unconditional stability of space-time…

Stabilization of manifolds by a product of spheres or a projective space is important in geometry. There has been considerable recent work that studies the homotopy theory of stabilization for connected manifolds. This paper generalizes…

In this note, we prove that if the boundary of a Mazur-type $4$-manifold is an irreducible Heegaard Floer homology $L$-space, then the manifold must be the $4$-ball, and the boundary must be the $3$-sphere. We use this to give a new proof…

Given an orientation-preserving and area-preserving homeomorphism $f$ of the sphere, we prove that every point which is in the common boundary of three pairwise disjoint invariant open topological disks must be a fixed point. As an…

This paper investigates the rigidity of bordered polyhedral surfaces. Using the variational principle, we show that bordered polyhedral surfaces are determined by boundary value and discrete curvatures on the interior edges. As a corollary,…

We discuss the formation of self-trapped localized states near the edge of a semi-infinite array of nonlinear waveguides. We study a crossover from nonlinear surface states to discrete solitons by analyzing the families of odd and even…
