A celebrated and deep theorem in the theory of Riemann surfaces states the existence and uniqueness of the Jenkins-Strebel differentials on a Riemann surface under some conditions, but the proof is non-constructive and examples are difficult to find. This paper deals with an example of a simple case, namely Jenkins-Str…

We derive a precise asymptotic expansion of the complete Kähler-Einstein metric on the punctured Riemann sphere with three or more omitting points. By using Schwarzian derivative, we prove that the coefficients of the expansion are polynomials on the two parameters which are uniquely determined by the omitting points. …

The paper characterizes sets with infinite hyperbolic convex hull volume.

The loop space of the Riemann sphere consisting of all $C^k$ or Sobolev $W^{k,p}$ maps from the circle $S^1$ to the sphere is an infinite dimensional complex manifold. We compute the Picard group of holomorphic line bundles on this loop space as an infinite dimensional complex Lie group with Lie algebra the first Dolbe…

Solves weighted bi-colored plane tree enumeration and applies to geometric problems.

We give a complete description of finite braid group orbits in Aff(C)-character varieties of the punctured Riemann sphere. This is performed thanks to a coalescence procedure and to the theory of finite complex reflection groups. We then derive consequences in the theory of differential equations. These concern algebra…

The Riemann sphere of a C*-algebra is a geometric structure derived from a specific projector.

We calculate the local Riemann-Roch numbers of the zero sections of $T^*S^n$ and $T^*\R P^n$, where the local Riemann-Roch numbers are defined by using the $S^1$-bundle structure on their complements associated to the geodesic flows.

We classify the rational differential 1-forms with simple poles and simple zeros on the Riemann sphere according to their isotropy group; when the 1-form has exactly two poles the isotropy group is isomorphic to $\mathbb{C}^{*}$, namely $\{z\mapsto az\ \vert\ a\in\mathbb{C}, a\neq0\}$, and when the 1-form has $k\geq 3$…

Reproves results on spherical metrics using parabolic bundles.

Simple Ricci flow proof for Riemann surfaces.

We prove that an integral Cauchy-Riemann inequality holds for any pair of smooth functions $(f,h)$ on the 2-sphere $\mathbb{S}^2$, and equality holds iff $f$ and $h$ are related $λ_1$-eigenfunctions. We extend such inequality to 4-tuples of functions, only valid on the $L^2$-orthogonal complement of a suitable nonzero …

We give the twistor description of harmonic maps of the Riemann sphere into the Hilbert-Schmidt Grassmannian. The study of such maps is motivated by the harmonic spheres conjecture formulated in the beginning of this paper.

In a recent paper Donaldson defines three operators on a space of Hermitian metrics on a complex projective manifold: $T, T_ν, T_K.$ Iterations of these operators converge to balanced metrics, and these themselves approximate constant scalar curvature metrics. In this paper we investigate the convergence properties of …

We prove that for every analytic curve in the complex plane, Euclidean and spherical arc-lengths are global conformal parameters. We also prove that for any analytic curve in the hyperbolic plane, hyperbolic arc-length is also a global parameter. We generalize some of these results to the case of analytic curves in Euc…

The isoresidual fibration maps Riemann sphere strata to resonance arrangements.

With the help of hyper-ideal circle pattern theory, we have developed a discrete version of the classical uniformization theorems for surfaces represented as finite branched covers over the Riemann sphere as well as compact polyhedral surfaces with non-positive curvature. We show that in the case of such surfaces discr…

Combines Kleinian groups and polynomials into a dynamical system.

We investigate i.i.d. random complex dynamical systems generated by probability measures on finite unions of the loci of holomorphic families of rational maps on the Riemann sphere. We show that under certain conditions on the families, for a generic system, (especially, for a generic random polynomial dynamical system…

A Riemann-Cartan manifold is a Riemannian manifold endowed with an affine connection which is compatible with the metric tensor. This affine connection is not necessarily torsion free. Under the assumption that the manifold is a homogeneous space, the notion of homogeneous Riemann-Cartan space is introduced in a natura…

A conformal map from a Riemann surface to a Euclidean space of dimension greater than or equal to three is explained by using the Clifford algebra, in a similar fashion to quaternionic holomorphic geometry of surfaces in the Euclidean three- or four-space. The Weierstrass representation, the spin transform, the Darboux…

We give an asymptotic probabilistic real Riemann-Hurwitz formula computing the expected real ramification index of a random covering over the Riemann sphere. More generally, we study the asymptotic expected number and distribution of critical points of a random real Lefschetz pencil over a smooth real algebraic variety…

A geometric flow based in the Riemann-Christoffel curvature tensor that in two dimensions has some common features with the usual Ricci flow is presented. For $n$ dimensional spaces this new flow takes into account all the components of the intrinsic curvature. For four dimensional Lorentzian manifolds it is found that…

We study the monodromy of meromorphic cyclic $\mathrm{SL}(n,\mathbb{C})$-opers on the Riemann sphere with a single pole. We prove that the monodromy map, sending such an oper to its Stokes data, is an immersion in the case where the order of the pole is a multiple of $n$. To do this, we develop a method based on the wo…

Stable compact minimal submanifolds of the product of a sphere and any Riemannian manifold are classified whenever the dimension of the sphere is at least three. The complete classification of the stable compact minimal submanifolds of the product of two spheres is obtained. Also, it is proved that the only stable comp…

This paper studies CR geometry of transversal curves in the 3-sphere.

From the uniformization theorem, we know that every Riemann surface has a simply-connected covering space. Moreover, there are only three simply-connected Riemann surfaces: the sphere, the Euclidean plane, and the hyperbolic plane. In this paper, we collect the known heat kernels, or Green's functions, for these three …

Wintgen ideal submanifolds in space forms are those ones attaining equality pointwise in the so-called DDVV inequality which relates the scalar curvature, the mean curvature and the scalar normal curvature. They are Moebius invariant objects. The mean curvature sphere defines a conformal Gauss map into a Grassmann mani…

In this paper, we prove the existence and uniqueness theorem for parabolic conical metrics on Riemann surfaces in the situation of generalized real angles, positive, zero and negative, by complex analysis, and give an example of this theorem to clarify concrete expressions of parabolic metrics on the two-sphere and gen…

Let $E$ be a closed set in the Riemann sphere $\widehat{\mathbb{C}}$. We consider a holomorphic motion $φ$ of $E$ over a complex manifold $M$, that is, a holomorphic family of injections on $E$ parametrized by $M$. It is known that if $M$ is the unit disk $Δ$ in the complex plane, then any holomorphic motion of $E$ ove…

Let $h$ be a complete metric of Gaussian curvature $K_0$ on a punctured Riemann surface of genus $g \geq 1$ (or the sphere with at least three punctures). Given a smooth negative function $K$ with $K=K_0$ in neighbourhoods of the punctures we prove that there exists a metric conformal to $h$ which attains this function…

We study the growth of harmonic functions on complete Riemann-ian manifolds where the extrinsic diameter of geodesic spheres is sublinear. It is an generalization of a result of A. Kazue. We also get a Cheng and Yau estimates for the gradient of harmonic functions.

The study constructs new minimal surfaces with more ramified values than previously known.

We prove the existence of a one parameter family of minimal embedded hypersurfaces in $R^{n+1}$, for $n \geq 3$, which generalize the well known 2 dimensional "Riemann minimal surfaces". The hypersurfaces we obtain are complete, embedded, simply periodic hypersurfaces which have infinitely many parallel hyperplanar end…

The loop space $L\mathbb{P}_1$ of the Riemann sphere consisting of all $C^k$ or Sobolev $W^{k,p}$ maps from the circle $S^1$ to $\mathbb{P}_1$ is an infinite dimensional complex manifold. The loop group $LPGL(2,\mathbb{C})$ acts on $L\mathbb{P}_1$ . We prove that the group of $LPGL(2,\mathbb{C})$ invariant holomorphic …
