The original proof of the Sharkovsky theorem is presented in full detail. The proof should be accessible to readers with basic Real Analysis background. Although nowadays there are several alternative proofs of this classical result, we…

It is known that the flip distance between two triangulations of a convex polygon is related to the minimum number of tetrahedra in the triangulation of some polyhedron. It is interesting to know whether these two numbers are the same. In…

Log Gromov-Witten invariants have recently been defined separately by Gross and Siebert and Abramovich and Chen. This paper provides a dictionary between log geometry and holomorphic exploded manifolds in order to compare Gromov-Witten…

Since the work of Lawler and Werner on "loop soups", these ensembles have also been the object of many investigations. Their properties can be studied in the context of rather general Markov processes, in particular Markov chains on graphs.…

We study the volume of central hyperplane sections of the cube. Using Fourier analytic and variational methods, we retrieve a geometric condition characterizing critical sections which, by entirely different methods, was recently proven by…

Basic facts and definitions of conformal moduli of rings and quadrilaterals are recalled. Some computational methods are reviewed. For the case of quadrilaterals with polygonal sides, some recent results are given. Some numerical…

We present an accurate detailed exposition of the proof of existence of the Alexander-Conway polynomial (of links in 3-dimensional space). Other proofs were given by J. Alexander, J. Conway, V. Mantourov and L. Kauffman.

A flip is a minimal move between two triangulations of a polytope. An open question is whether any two triangulations of the product of two simplices can be connected through a series of flips. This was proven in the case where one of the…

This paper can be viewed as a sequel to the author's long survey on the Zimmer program \cite{F11} published in 2011. The sequel focuses on recent rapid progress on certain aspects of the program particularly concerning rigidity of Anosov…

Given two combinatorial triangulations, how many edge flips are necessary and sufficient to convert one into the other? This question has occupied researchers for over 75 years. We provide a comprehensive survey, including full proofs, of…

We give a short introduction to the theory of modular metric spaces. This is a corrected version of the paper [1], which had some errors. We are grateful to V. V. Chistyakov for bringing these to our attention.

This article gives an account on various aspects of stochastic calculus in the plane. Specifically, our aim is 3-fold: (i) Derive a pathwise change of variable formula for a path indexed by a square, satisfying some H\"older regularity…

This paper has two purposes. The first is to explicate the diagrammatic approach to Hopf algebras due to Kuperberg, and to examine his proof of the existence and uniqueness of integrals in both the diagrammatic and purely algebraic…

We give a new characterization of pseudoconvex point, and of finite type point, using analytic discs.

The theory of ``Markov-up'' processes is being developed. This is a new class of stochastic processes with ``partial'' markovian features; it could also be called ``one-sided Markov''. Such a behavior may be found in the real world and in…

In this paper we introduce the concept of sliding Shilnikov orbits for $3$D Filippov systems. In short, such an orbit is a piecewise smooth closed curve, composed by Filippov trajectories, which slides on the switching surface and connects…

In this work we develop a theory of motives for logarithmic schemes over fields in the sense of Fontaine, Illusie, and Kato. Our construction is based on the notion of finite log correspondences, the dividing Nisnevich topology on log…

We prove the finiteness of relative log pluricanonical representations in the complex analytic setting. As an application, we discuss the abundance conjecture for semi-log canonical pairs within this framework. Furthermore, we establish the…

We construct a new type of geometric knot theory, plumbers' knots, and solve the problems of distinguishing and enumerating such knots at a fixed level of complexity. (v2) Minor edits, added theorem 3.18. (v3) Substantial revisions,…

We discuss some applications of an intrinsic multipication in the space of simple loops in a surface.
