There is a natural duality between line congruences in $\mathbb{R}^3$ and surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^4$ that sends principal lines into asymptotic lines. The same correspondence takes the discriminant curve of a line congruence into the…

In this article we study congruences of lines in $\mathbb{P}^n$, and in particular of order one. After giving general results, we obtain a complete classification in the case of $\mathbb{P}^4$ in which the fundamental surface $F$ is in fact…

While conformal transformations of the plane preserve Laplace's equation, Lorentz-conformal mappings preserve the wave equation. We discover how simple geometric objects, such as quadrilaterals and pairs of crossing curves, are transformed…

In a well-known paper by Bruna, Nagel and Wainger [BNW], Fourier transform decay estimates were proved for smooth hypersurfaces of finite line type bounding a convex domain. In this paper, we generalize their results in the following ways.…

The monodromy of hypergeometric functions can govern the properties of the functions themselves. Previously, the second and third authors studied the commensurability relations among monodromy groups of the Appell--Lauricella hypergeometric…

In this article we obtain a complete description of the congruences of lines in $\p^4$ of order one provided that the fundamental surface $F$ is non-reduced (and possibly reducible) at one of its generic points, and their classification…

Congruences, or $2$-parameter families of lines in $3$-space are of interest in many situations, in particular in geometric optics. In this paper we consider elements of their geometry which are invariant under affine changes of…

S. I. Agafonov and E. V. Ferapontov have introduced a construction that allows naturally associating to a system of partial differential equations of conservation laws a congruence of lines in an appropriate projective space. In particular…

An explicit construction of surfaces with flat normal bundle in the Euclidean space (unit hypersphere) in terms of solutions of certain linear system is proposed. In the case of 3-space our formulae can be viewed as the direct Lie sphere…

In this note we generalize the main result in [DIV: R. Di Gennaro, G. Ilardi, J. Valles, Singular hypersurfaces characterizing the Lefschetz properties J. Lond. Math. Soc. (2) 89 (2014), no. 1, 194-212] on artinian ideals failing Lefschetz…

We review recent results on Integrable Discrete Geometry. It turns out that most of the known (continuous and/or discrete) integrable systems are particular symmetries of the quadrilateral lattice, a multidimensional lattice characterized…

We propose a systematic study of transformations of $A$-hypergeometric functions. Our approach is to apply changes of variables corresponding to automorphisms of toric rings, to Euler-type integral representations of $A$-hypergeometric…

We prove the equivalence of two conjectural constructions of unramified cuspidal automorphic functions on the adelic group GL_n(A) associated to an irreducible l-adic local system of rank n on an algebraic curve X over a finite field. The…

Of all real Lagrangian--Grassmannians $LG(n,2n)$, only $LG(2,4)$ admits a distinguished (Lorentzian) conformal structure and hence is identified with the indefinite M\"obius space $S^{1,2}$. Using Cartan's method of moving frames, we study…

Consider a surface, enclosing a fixed volume, described by a free-energy depending only on the local geometry; for example, the Canham-Helfrich energy quadratic in the mean curvature describes a fluid membrane. The stress at any point on…

For non-degenerate surfaces in $R^4$, a distinguished transversal bundle called affine normal plane bundle was proposed in [Nomizu-Vrancken]. Lagrangian surfaces have remarkable properties with respect to this normal bundle, like for…

We show that properties of hypergeometric class equations and functions become transparent if we derive them from appropriate 2nd order differential equations with constant coefficients. More precisely, properties of the hypergeometric and…

A congruence is a surface in the Grassmannian ${\rm Gr}(2, 4)$. In this paper, we consider the normalization of congruence of bitangents to a hypersurface in $\mathbb P^3$. We call it the Fano congruence of bitangents. We give a criterion…

This note derives parametrizations for surfaces of revolution that satisfy an affine-linear relation between their respective curvature radii. Alongside, parametrizations for the uniform normal offsets of those surfaces are obtained. Those…

The purpose of this paper is, first, to give an algorithm that enables to obtain the lines of curvature on parametric hypersurfaces in Euclidean 4-space, and then, to obtain the curvatures of such lines by using the extended Darboux frame…
