This memoir investigates a method that generalizes the Chern-Federer kinematic formula to arbitrary homogeneous spaces with an invariant Riemannian metric, and leads to new formulas even in the case of submanifolds of Euclidean space.
Through classification of compact abelian group actions on semifinite injective factors, Jones and Takesaki introduced a notion of an action of a measured groupoid on a von Neumann algebra, which was proven to be an important tool for such an analysis. In this paper, elaborating their definition, the author introduces a new concept of a measured groupoid action that may fit more perfectly in the groupoid setting. The author also considers a notion of a coaction of a measured groupoid by showing the existence of a canonical "coproduct" on every groupoid von Neumann algebra.
Continuous images of ordered continua are investigated. The paper gives various properties of their monotone images and inverse limits of their inverse systems (or sequences) with monotone bonding surjections. Some factorization theorems are provided. Special attention is given to one-dimensional spaces which are continuous images of arcs and, among them, various classes of rim-finite continua. The methods of proofs include cyclic element theory, T-set approximations and null-family decompositions. The paper brings also new properties of cyclic elements and T-sets in locally connected continua, in general.
A multiple solution theory to the Plateau problem in a Riemannian manifold is established. In [italic capital]S[superscript italic]n, the existence of two solutions to this problem is obtained. The Morse-Tompkins-Shiffman Theorem is extended to the case when the ambient space admits no minimal sphere.
Let [italic]a([italic]m, [italic]n) denote the [italic]mth coefficient of the [italic]nth cyclotomic polynomial [capital Greek]Phi[subscript italic]n([italic]z), and let [italic]a([italic]m) = max[subscript italic]n [conditional event/restriction/such that] |[italic]a([italic]m, [italic]n)[conditional event/restriction/such that] |. Our principal result is an asymptotic formula for log [italic]a([italic]m) that improves over a recent estimate of Montgomery and Vaughan.
This work studies abelian branched coverings of smooth complex projective surfaces from the topological viewpoint. Geometric information about the coverings (such as the first Betti numbers of a smooth model or intersections of embedded curves) is related to topological and combinatorial information about the base space and branch locus. Special attention is given to examples in which the base space is the complex projective plane and the branch locus is a configuration of lines.
This paper investigates the question of linkage and block theory for Lie algebras of Cartan type. The second part of the paper deals mainly with block structure and projective modules of Lies algebras of types W and K.
This memoir is devoted to the case of constant mean curvature surfaces immersed in [bold]R3. We reduce this geometrical problem to finding certain integrable solutions to the Gauss equation. Many new and interesting examples are presented, including immersed cylinders in [bold]R3 with embedded Delaunay ends and [italic]n-lobes in the middle, and one-parameter families of immersed constant mean curvature tori in [bold]R3. We examine minimal surfaces in hyperbolic three-space, which is in some ways the most complicated case.

There are three chapters to the memoir. The first defines and develops the notion of the index of a graph. The next chapter presents the general application of the graph index to knot theory. The last section is devoted to particular examples, such as determining the braid index of alternating pretzel links. A second result shows that for an alternating knot with Alexander polynomial having leading coefficient less than 4 in absolute value, the braid index is determined by polynomial invariants.
