Totally geodesic subvarieties in the moduli space of Riemann surfaces

open access: yes, 2016
We will present an algebraic surface in the moduli space of triply punctured tori with the remarkable property that it is totally geodesic for Teichmuller metric. Our example reveals a surprising connection between Teichmuller theory and the geometry of

The hyperbolicity constant of infinite circulant graphs

open access: yesOpen Mathematics, 2017
If X is a geodesic metric space and x1, x2, x3 ∈ X, a geodesic triangle T = {x1, x2, x3} is the union of the three geodesics [x1x2], [x2x3] and [x3x1] in X.

Geodesics in Asymmetric Metric Spaces

open access: yesAnalysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces, 2014
Abstract In a recent paper [17] we studied asymmetric metric spaces; in this context we studied the length of paths, introduced the class of run-continuous paths; and noted that there are different definitions of “length spaces” (also known as “path-metric spaces” or “intrinsic spaces”).

An Elasto–Plastic Hydro–Mechanical Model for Analyzing the Swelling Behavior of Heterogeneous Clay–Sulfate Rocks

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Swelling of clay‐sulfate rocks is a concern in geotechnical engineering that can damage infrastructure. In the historic town of Staufen in southwest Germany, geothermal drilling into a swellable anhydrite‐bearing clay formation resulted in water inflow and subsequent swelling, triggering ground heave and damage to more than 250 houses.

Inertial motion, explanation, and the foundations of classical spacetime theories [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
I begin by reviewing some recent work on the status of the geodesic principle in general relativity and the geometrized formulation of Newtonian gravitation.

Thermodynamic geodesics in Bardeen regular black hole: conventional vs. modified geometrothermodynamics metrics

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields
Thermodynamic geometry allow us to study the microscopic behavior of black hole system by defining a metric structure in thermodynamic phase space. Among the various thermodynamic metric structures, metrics defined by geometrothermodynamics (GTD) are ...

Home and away: allometry and climate drive morphology of European rabbits in their native and introduced range

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Climatic conditions shape phenotypic evolution by driving adaptations that optimise organismal function. Invasive species provide valuable systems to study these processes, as they often encounter novel climatic conditions in their introduced ranges. The European rabbit Oryctolagus cuniculus, native to the Iberian Peninsula, has established populations

Bijections of geodesic lamination space preserving left Hausdorff convergence

open access: yes, 2018
International audienceWe introduce an asymmetric distance function, which we call the ``left Hausdorff distance function", on the space of geodesic laminations on a closed hyperbolic surface of genus at least 2.

Rewilding's technological experiments: Virtual reality and scalable narratives of rewilding in the Scottish highlands

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Depictions of rewilded landscapes reveal the underlying principles shaping the future of rewilding. This paper analyses a virtual reality (VR) model of a rewilding project in the Scottish Highlands that is advertised as a vision of a rewilded nature in 50 to 100 years' time.

Main‐chain polyfullerenes: Taking fullerene to the next dimension

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
This short review appraises main‐chain polyfullerenes. Their slow development over 30 years has suddenly boomed with a rapid growth due to exciting developments in solar energy. Abstract This mini‐review gives an overview of the development, chemistry, properties and applications of main‐chain polyfullerenes.
