In this note we consider functions with Moebius-periodic rational coefficients. These functions under some conditions take algebraic values and can be recovered by theta functions and the Dedekind eta function. Special cases are the…

The direct or algorithmic approach for the Jacobian problem, consisting of the direct construction of the inverse polynomials is proposed. The so called principle and derived Jacobi conditions are proposed and discussed. The algorithmic…

We consider geodesically convex optimization problems involving distances to a finite set of points $A$ in a CAT(0) cubical complex. Examples include the minimum enclosing ball problem, the weighted mean and median problems, and the…

This paper presents two new direct symbolic-numerical algorithms for the transformation of Cartesian coordinates into geodetic coordinates considering the general case of a triaxial reference ellipsoid. The problem in both algorithms is…

In this paper we consider Yamabe type problem for higher order curvatures on manifolds with totally geodesic boundaries. We prove local gradient and second derivative estimates for solutions to the fully nonlinear elliptic equations…

We review a simple but instructive application of the formalism of covariant bitensors, to use a deviation vector field along a fiducial geodesic to describe a neighboring worldline, in an exact and manifestly covariant manner, via the…

A particular case of degenerate Clebsch-Gordan coefficient can be expressed with three binomial coefficients. Such a formula, which may be obtained using the standard ladder operator procedure, can also be derived from the Racah-Shimpuku…

In this note we reduce the problem of geodesic connectedness in a wide class of G\"odel type spacetimes to the search of critical points of a functional naturally involved in the study of geodesics in standard static spacetimes. Then, by…

In this paper we show that two Lagrangian graphs over the torus in $\mathbb{C}^n$ with large Lagrangian phase can be connected via Lipschitz continuous geodesic with respect to the $L^2$ metric on the space of Lagrangian submanifolds. In…

Starting with an exact and simple geodesic, we generate approximate geodesics by summing up higher-order geodesic deviations within a General Relativistic setting, without using Newtonian and post-Newtonian approximations. We apply this…

Theta functions play a major role in many current researches and are powerful tools for studying integrable systems. The purpose of this paper is to provide a short and quick exposition of some aspects of meromorphic theta functions for…

Petrovskii elliptic systems of linear differential equations given on a closed smooth manifold are investigated on the extended Sobolev scale. This scale consists of all Hilbert spaces that are interpolation spaces with respect to the…

In this paper, we consider the problem of finding geodesics in a series of left-invariant problems endowed with sub-Lorentzian and Finsler structures. Explicit formulas for extremals are obtained in terms of convex trigonometric functions.…

This short survey illustrates the ideas of Teichmuller dynamics. As a model application we consider the asymptotic topology of generic geodesics on a "flat" surface and count closed geodesics and saddle connections. This survey is based on…

The hodograph of the Kepler-Coulomb problem, that is, the path traced by its velocity vector, is shown to be a circle and then it is used to investigate other properties of the motion. We obtain the configuration space orbits of the problem…

We introduce the heat method for computing the shortest geodesic distance to a specified subset (e.g., point or curve) of a given domain. The heat method is robust, efficient, and simple to implement since it is based on solving a pair of…

We propose an optimization algorithm for computing geodesics on the universal Teichm\"uller space T(1) in the Weil-Petersson ($W P$) metric. Another realization for T(1) is the space of planar shapes, modulo translation and scale, and thus…

The geodesic equations resulting from the Schwarzschild gravitational metric element are solved exactly including the contribution from the Cosmological constant. The exact solution is given by genus 2 Siegelsche modular forms. For zero…

In this paper we study the conjugate locus in convex manifolds. Our main tool is Jacobi fields, which we use to define a special coordinate system on the unit sphere of the tangent space; this provides a natural coordinate system to study…

We proved the contractibility of the deformation space of the geodesic triangulations on a closed surface of negative curvature. This solves an open problem proposed by Connelly et al. in 1983, in the case of hyperbolic surfaces. The main…
