The Loch Ness Monster admits many regular dessins d'enfants and different holomorphic structures.

Finite groups can be represented as origami automorphisms, extended to countable groups.

In this paper we present in a topological way the construction of the orientable surface with only one end and infinite genus, called \emph{The Infinite Loch Ness Monster}. In fact, we introduce a flat and hyperbolic construction of this surface. We discuss how the name of this surface has evolved and how it has been h…

Study flute surfaces and Loch Ness monster, proving their parabolicity and uniformization.

We classify Veech groups of tame non-compact flat surfaces. In particular we prove that all countable subgroups of $\mathbf{GL}_+(2,\R)$ avoiding the set of mappings of norm less than 1 appear as Veech groups of tame non-compact flat surfaces which are Loch Ness monsters. Conversely, a Veech group of any tame flat surf…

The paper studies the geometry and topology of a specific foliation on a complex surface.

This paper finds minimal sets of generators for mapping class groups of specific surfaces.

In this paper, for a non compact and orientable surface $S$ been either: the Infinite Loch Ness monster, the Cantor tree and the Blooming Cantor tree, we construct explicitly an infinitely generated Fuchsian group $Γ<PSL(2,\mathbb{R})$, such that the quotient $\mathbb{H}/Γ$ is a hyperbolic surface homeomorphic to $S$.

Study on minimal torsion topological generators for mapping class groups of infinite-type surfaces.

Study parabolicity of Riemann surfaces via Fenchel-Nielsen parameters.

We further study the incidence relations that arise from the various subtowers, known as Baby Monster, which exist within the $\mathbb{R}^{3}$-Monster Tower. This allows us to complete the $RVT$ class spelling rules. We also present a method of calculating the various Baby Monster that appear within the Monster Tower.

Develops infinite-dimensional Kempf-Ness theory for complexification-free groups.

The study proves super-rigidity of Gromov's random monster group for various types of groups.

The monster tower is a tower of spaces over a specified base; each space in the tower is a parameter space for curvilinear data up to a specified order. We describe and analyze a natural stratification of these spaces.

We consider here the problem of classifying orbits of an action of the dif- feomorphism group of 3-space on a tower of fibrations with P2-fibers that generalize the Monster Tower due to Montgomery and Zhitomirskii. As a corollary we give the first steps towards the problem of classifying Goursat 2-flags of small length…

The Monster tower, also known as the Semple tower, is a sequence of manifolds with distributions of interest to both differential and algebraic geometers. Each manifold is a projective bundle over the previous. Moreover, each level is a fiber compactified jet bundle equipped with an action of finite jets of the diffeom…

Investigates properties of moment maps and stratifications on Lie groups.

In earlier work, we introduced the `Monster tower', a tower of fibrations associated to planar curves. We constructed an algorithm for classifying its points with respect to the equivalence relation generated by the action of the contact pseudogroup on the tower. Here, we construct the analogous tower for curves in $n$…

We prove a version of the affine Kempf-Ness theorem for non-algebraic symplectic structures and shifted moment maps, and use it to describe hyperkahler quotients of T*G, where G is a complex reductive group.

In this note we summarize our results from earlier work with the Monster Tower (A Monster Tower Approach to Goursat Multi-Flags). In particular, we give an overview of the problem of classifying the orbits within a tower of fibrations with fibers diffeomorphic to projective planes. Included in this note is one new resu…

NeSS combines neural and symbolic approaches for better compositional generalization.

For linear actions of real reductive Lie groups we prove the Kempf-Ness Theorem about closed orbits and the Kirwan-Ness Stratification Theorem of the null cone. Since our completely self-contained proof focuses strongly on geometric and analytic methods, essentially avoiding any deep algebraic result, it applies also t…

Using the monster/Semple tower construction, we study the structure of the Cartan prolongation of the family $x_1x_2 = t$ of plane curves with nodal central member.

New insights into a complex hyperbolic braid group quotient.

In this paper, the second of a series of two, we continue the study of higher index theory for expanders. We prove that if a sequence of graphs has girth tending to infinity, then the maximal coarse Baum-Connes assembly map is an isomorphism for the associated metric space $X$. As discussed in the first paper in this s…

This is a survey of the recent work in algorithmic and asymptotic properties of groups. I discuss Dehn functions of groups, complexity of the word problem, Higman embeddings, and constructions of finitely presented groups with extreme properties (monsters).

In this paper, the first of a series of two, we continue the study of higher index theory for expanders. We prove that if a sequence of graphs is an expander and the girth of the graphs tends to infinity, then the coarse Baum-Connes assembly map is injective, but not surjective, for the associated metric space $X$. Exp…

The purpose of this paper is to give a self-contained exposition of the Atiyah-Bott picture for the Yang-Mills equation over Riemann surfaces with an emphasis on the analogy to finite dimensional geometric invariant theory. The main motivation is to provide a careful study of the semistable and unstable orbits: This in…

Study on line bundle flow on Kähler surfaces converging to a singular solution.

CASPER improves DAG structure learning by integrating graph structure into score function.

We formulate a Calabi-Yau type conjecture in generalized Kähler geometry, focusing on the case of nondegenerate Poisson structure. After defining natural Hamiltonian deformation spaces for generalized Kähler structures generalizing the notion of Kähler class, we conjecture unique solvability of Gualtieri's Calabi-Yau e…

As of today, there are very few known complete shrinking Ricci solitons in dimension 4, and all examples discovered so far are Kähler and/or Einstein. In this note, we prove that any four dimensional J-invariant gradient shrinking Ricci solitons satisfy a differential form identity relating Kählerity annd Einstein-ness…

In this note we show that the configuration spaces of the kinematic system constructed in [4] and [12] gives rise to a natural tower of sphere bundles. Moreover, we prove that, each tower of projective bundles associated to special multi- flags (cf [1], [13], [2], [3]), we can associate such a tower of sphere bundles w…

This note contains some observations on abelian convexity theorems. Convexity along an orbit is established in a very general setting using Kempf-Ness functions. This is applied to give short proofs of the Atiyah-Guillemin-Sternberg theorem and of abelian convexity for the gradient map in the case of a real analytic su…

We give generators for a certain complex hyperbolic braid group. That is, we remove a hyperplane arrangement from complex hyperbolic $13$-space, take the quotient of the remaining space by a discrete group, and find generators for the orbifold fundamental group of the quotient. These generators have the most natural fo…

The paper studies conditions for graphs connecting level sets of harmonic polynomials.

The paper examines positivity properties of singular Hermitian metrics.

It is well known that the compactifications of the canonical contact systems living on real jet spaces $J^{\,r}(1,1)$, $r \ge 2$, are locally universal Goursat distributions, $Δ^r$, living on compact manifolds (called Goursat monsters) having open dense jet-like ($J^{\,r}(1,1)$-like) parts. By virtue of the results of …
