We verify the infinitesimal inversive rigidity of almost all triangulated circle polyhedra in the Euclidean plane $\mathbb{E}^{2}$, as well as the infinitesimal inversive rigidity of tangency circle packings on the $2$-sphere…
A compactness theorem is proved for a family of K\"{a}hler surfaces with constant scalar curvature and volume bounded from below, diameter bounded from above, Ricci curvature bounded and the signature bounded from below. Furthermore, a…
Haag, Kertzer, Rickards, and Stange disprove the Local-Global Conjecture for Apollonian circle packings. We extend their disproof to four more types of integral circle packing: the octahedral, cubic, square, and triangular packings. In each…
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 paper, we study the properties of the first global term in the polyhomogeneous expansions for Liouville's equation. We obtain rigidity and gap results for the boundary integral of the global coefficient. We prove that such a…
In this paper, maximum principles for Euclidean and hyperbolic discrete conformal structures on polyhedral surfaces are established. These maximum principles unify and generalize the maximum principles for vertex scalings and different…
Motivated by problems arising in the study of N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories we introduce and study irregular singularities in two-dimensional conformal field theory, here Liouville theory. Irregular singularities are associated to…
We prove entropy rigidity for finite volume strictly convex projective manifolds in dimensions $\geq 3$, generalizing the work of arXiv:1708.03983 to the finite volume setting. The rigidity theorem uses the techniques of Besson, Courtois,…
This article sketches the proofs of two theorems about sphere packings in Euclidean 3-space. The first is K. Bezdek's strong dodecahedral conjecture: the surface area of every bounded Voronoi cell in a packing of balls of radius 1 is at…
We prove that for any discrete curvature satisfying Gauss-Bonnet formula, there exist a unique up to scaling inversive distance circle packing in the discrete conformal equivalent class, whose polyhedral metric meets the target curvature.…
The classical Liouville theorem states that a bounded harmonic function on all of $\RR^n$ must be constant. In the early 1970s, S.T. Yau vastly generalized this, showing that it holds for manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature.…
The objective of this paper is to establish a connection between the problem of optimal regularity among solutions to elliptic PDEs with measurable coefficients and the Liouville property at infinity. Initially, we address the…
We consider $N$ point vortices $s_j$ of strengths $\kappa_j$ moving on a closed (compact, boundaryless, orientable) surface $S$ with riemannian metric $g$. As far as we know, only the sphere or surfaces of revolution, the latter…
High-order derivatives of analytic functions are expressible as Cauchy integrals over circular contours, which can very effectively be approximated, e.g., by trapezoidal sums. Whereas analytically each radius r up to the radius of…
In this paper we study the integral properties of Apollonian-3 circle packings, which are variants of the standard Apollonian circle packings. Specifically, we study the reduction theory, formulate a local-global conjecture, and prove a…
We study the hexagonal lattice $\mathbb{Z}[\omega]$, where $\omega^6=1$. More specifically, we study the angular distribution of hexagonal lattice points on circles with a fixed radius. We prove that the angles are equidistributed on…
We study the combinatorial and rigidity properties of disk packings with generic radii. We show that a packing of $n$ disks in the plane with generic radii cannot have more than $2n-3$ pairs of disks in contact. The allowed motions of a…
We prove some Liouville type theorems on smooth compact Riemannian manifolds with nonnegative sectional curvature and strictly convex boundary. This gives a nonlinear generalization in low dimension of the recent sharp lower bound of the…
We report on recent developments in the dynamics and rigidity of infinite-volume homogeneous spaces, viewed through the lens of circles. By addressing four natural questions about circle packings, we highlight the interplay between…
Benjamini and Schramm (1996) used circle packing to prove that every transient, bounded degree planar graph admits non-constant harmonic functions of finite Dirichlet energy. We refine their result, showing in particular that for every…
