Classifies hexagonal circular 3-webs with cubic polar curves.

We prove by Hilbert-Mumford criterion that a slope stable polarized weighted pointed nodal curve is Chow asymptotic stable. This generalizes the result of Caporaso on stability of polarized nodal curves, and of Hasset on weighted pointed stable curves polarized by the weighted dualizing sheaves. It also solved a questi…

A 2-web in the plane is given by two everywhere transverse 1-foliations. In this paper we introduce the study of singular 2-webs, given by any two foliations, which may be tangent in some points. We show that such two foliations are tangent along a curve, which will be called the polar curve of the 2-web, and we study …

New hexagonal circular 3-webs with reducible curves classified.

For a singular Riemannian foliation $\mathcal{F}$ on a Riemannian manifold, a curve is called horizontal if it meets the leaves of $\mathcal{F}$ perpendicularly. For a singular Riemannian foliation $\mathcal{F}$ on a unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n}$, we show that if $\mathcal{F}$ is a polar foliation or if $\mathcal{F}$ is…

We study the limiting behaviour of Darboux and Calapso transforms of polarized curves in the conformal n-dimensional sphere, when the polarization has a pole of first or second order at some point. We prove that for a pole of first order, as the singularity is approached all Darboux transforms converge to the original …

A Darboux transformation for polarized space curves is introduced and its properties are studied, in particular, Bianchi permutability. Semi-discrete isothermic surfaces are described as sequences of Darboux transforms of polarized curves in the conformal n-sphere and their transformation theory is studied. Semi-discre…

A polarity of a projective plane is a map, often assumed to be involutive, mapping a generic point to a generic line and reciprocally. The most classical polarity is the polarity with respect to a conic, but other exist: the harmonic polarity with respect to a triangle, the polarities with respect to high-degree algebr…

This paper deals with skew ruled surfaces in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{E}^{3}$ which are equipped with polar normalizations, that is, relative normalizations such that the relative normal at each point of the ruled surface lies on the corresponding polar plane. We determine the invariants of a such normalized ruled …

The study shows boundedness and constructs a moduli space for Calabi-Yau fibrations.

Study slopes of direct images in complex manifolds, proving a Mehta-Ramanathan type theorem.

An axiomatic characterization of buildings of type $\CC_3$ due to Tits is used to prove that any cohomogeneity two polar action of type $\CC_3$ on a positively curved simply connected manifold is equivariantly diffeomorphic to a polar action on a rank one symmetric space. This includes two actions on the Cayley plane w…

There is a well known link between (maximal) polar representations and isotropy representations of symmetric spaces provided by Dadok. Moreover, the theory by Tits and Burns-Spatzier provides a link between irreducible symmetric spaces of non-compact type of rank at least three and irreducible topological spherical bui…

We compactify the classical moduli variety $A_g$ of principally polarized abelian varieties of complex dimension $g$ by attaching the moduli of flat tori of real dimensions at most $g$ in an explicit manner. Equivalently, we explicitly determine the Gromov-Hausdorff limits of principally polarized abelian varieties. Th…

We provide examples of families of (log) smooth canonically polarized varieties, including smooth weighted pointed curves and smooth hypersurfaces in $P^3$ with large degree such that the Chow semistable limits under distinct pluricanonical embeddings do not stabilize.

The basic theory on the conformal geometry of timelike surfaces in pseudo-Riemannian space forms is introduced, which is parallel to the classical framework of Burstall etc. for spacelike surfaces. Then we provide a discussion on the transforms of timelike $(\pm)-$isothermic surfaces (or real isothermic, complex isothe…

We study the limiting case of the Krichever construction of orthogonal curvilinear coordinate systems when the spectral curve becomes singular. We show that the case when the curve is reducible and all its irreducible components are rational curves the construction procedure reduces to solving systems of linear equatio…

Transformers adapted to spherical geometry using space-filling curves.

On a complex curve, we establish a correspondence between integrable connections with irregular singularities, and Higgs bundles such that the Higgs field is meromorphic with poles of any order. The moduli spaces of these objects are obtained by fixing at each singularity the polar part of the connection. We prove that…

Extends potential theory to Carnot groups, estimating Hausdorff dimension.

Consider a smooth manifold $M$ with a smooth cometric $g^{\ast}$ which changes the bilineal type by transverse way, on a hypersurface $D^{\infty}$. Suppose that the radical annihilator hyperplane is tangent to $D^{\infty}$. We examine the geometry of the ($g^{\ast}$-dual) covariant metric $g$ on $M-$ $D^{\infty}$, prov…

The holomorphic invariants introduced by Futaki as obstruction to the asymptotic Chow semistability are studied by an algebraic-geometric point of view and are shown to be the Mumford weights of suitable line bundles on the Hilbert scheme. These invariants are calculated in two special cases. The first is a projective …

Global rigidity theorem for curve to abelian variety maps.

Scattering theory on Riemann surfaces with explicit matrix and generalized period mappings.

We construct examples of $C^\infty$ smooth submanifolds in ${\Bbb C}^n$ and ${\Bbb R}^n$ of codimension 2 and 1, which intersect every complex, respectively real, analytic curve in a discrete set. The examples are realized either as compact tori or as properly imbedded Euclidean spaces, and are the graphs of quasianaly…

Duality principle for approximation of geometrical objects (also known as Eudoxus exhaustion method) was extended and perfected by Archimedes in his famous tractate "Measurement of circle". The main idea of the approximation method by Archimedes is to construct a sequence of pairs of inscribed and circumscribed polygon…

We prove the nonexistence of a proper singular Riemannian foliation admitting section in compact manifolds of nonpositive curvature. Then we give a global description of proper singular Riemannian foliations admitting sections on Hadamard manifolds. In addition by using the theory of taut immersions we provide a short …

Let $\mathrm{Out}(F_n)$ be the outer automorphism group of the free group $F_n$. It acts properly on the outer space $X_n$ of marked metric graphs, which is a finite-dimensional infinite simplicial complex with some simplicial faces missing. In this paper, we construct complete geodesic metrics and complete piecewise s…

We deal with a notion of weak binormal and weak principal normal for non-smooth curves of the Euclidean space with finite total curvature and total absolute torsion. By means of piecewise linear methods, we first introduce the analogous notation for polygonal curves, where the polarity property is exploited, and then m…

Scattering theory for harmonic one-forms on Riemann surfaces.

We classify the polar actions on the complex hyperbolic plane up to orbit equivalence. Apart from the trivial and transitive polar actions, there are five polar actions of cohomogeneity one and four polar actions of cohomogeneity two.

The goal of this paper is to measure the non-convexity of compact and smooth connected components of real algebraic plane curves. We study these curves first in a general setting and then in an asymptotic one. In particular, we consider sufficiently small levels of a real bivariate polynomial in a small enough neighbou…

The paper studies how Kähler polarizations degenerate to mixed polarizations on toric varieties.

New Harnack inequality for curve shortening flow without convexity.

Polarized and $G$-polarized CR manifolds are smooth manifolds endowed with a double structure: a real foliation $\Cal F$ (given by the action of a Lie group $G$ in the $G$-polarized case) and a transverse CR distribution $(E,J)$. Polarized means that $(E,J)$ is roughly speaking invariant by $\Cal F$. Both structures ar…

The generic fiber of a Lagrangian fibration on an irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifold is an abelian variety. Associate a polarization type to such Lagrangian fibrations coming from polarizations on a generic fiber. We prove that this polarization type is constant in families of Lagrangian fibrations. Further, w…

A spiral unibike track emerges from a mathematical construction.

Let (X,L) be a polarized compact manifold, i.e. L is an ample line bundle over X and denote by H the infinite dimensional space of all positively curved Hermitian metrics on L equipped with the Mabuchi metric. In this short note we show, using Bedford-Taylor type envelope techniques developed in the authors previous wo…

The study introduces polarization of generalized Nijenhuis torsions and their relevance in operator fields.

Classifies polar foliations on symmetric spaces.

Assume that a projective variety together with a polarization is uniformly K-stable. If the polarization is canonical or anti-canonical, then the projective variety is uniformly K-stable with respects to any polarization sufficiently close to the original polarization.

Classifies totally geodesic submanifolds and polar actions on Stiefel manifolds.

The main result of this paper is that a polar action on a compact irreducible homogeneous Kaehler manifold is coisotropic. This is then used to give new examples of polar actions and to classify coisotropic and polar actions on quadrics.
