The Hurwitz problem asks which ramification data are realizable, that is appear as the ramification type of a covering. We use dessins denfant to show that families of genus 1 regular ramification data with small changes are realizable with the exception of four families which were recently shown to be nonrealizable. A similar description holds in the case of genus 0 ramification data.

We recursively determine the homotopy type of the space of any irreducible framed link in the 3-sphere, modulo rotations. This leads us to the homotopy type of the space of any knot in the solid torus, thus answering a question posed by Arnold. We similarly study spaces of unframed links in the 3-sphere, modulo rotations, and spaces of knots in the thickened torus. The subgroup of meridional rotations splits as a direct factor of the fundamental group of the space of any framed link except the unknot. Its generators can be viewed as generalizations of the Gramain loop in the space of long knots. Taking the quotient by certain such rotations relates the spaces we study. All of our results generalize previous work of Hatcher and Budney. We provide many examples and explicitly describe generators of fundamental groups.
We show that any embedding $mathbb{R}^d to mathbb{R}^{2d+rho(d)-1}$ inscribes a trapezoid or maps three points to a line, where $rho(d)$ denotes the Radon-Hurwitz function. This strengthens earlier results on the nonexistence of affinely $3$-regular maps for infinitely many dimensions $d$ by further constraining four coplanar points to be the vertices of a trapezoid.
We reinterpret ideas in Kleins paper on transformations of degree~$11$ from the modern point of view of dessins denfants, and extend his results by considering dessins of type $(3,2,p)$ and degree $p$ or $p+1$, where $p$ is prime. In many cases we determine the passports and monodromy groups of these dessins, and in a few small cases we give drawings which are topologically (or, in certain examples, even geometrically) correct. We use the Bateman--Horn Conjecture and extensive computer searches to support a conjecture that there are infinitely many primes of the form $p=(q^n-1)/(q-1)$ for some prime power $q$, in which case infinitely many groups ${rm PSL}_n(q)$ arise as permutation groups and monodromy groups of degree $p$ (an open problem in group theory).
We prove on the 2D sphere and on the 2D torus the Lieb-Thirring inequalities with improved constants for orthonormal families of scalar and vector functions.
A vertex-transitive map $X$ is a map on a closed surface on which the automorphism group ${rm Aut}(X)$ acts transitively on the set of vertices. If the face-cycles at all the vertices in a map are of same type then the map is said to be a semi-equivelar map. Clearly, a vertex-transitive map is semi-equivelar. Converse of this is not true in general. We show that there are eleven types of semi-equivelar maps on the torus. Three of these are equivelar maps. It is known that two of the three types of equivelar maps on the torus are always vertex-transitive. We show that this is true for the remaining one type of equivelar map and one other type of semi-equivelar maps, namely, if $X$ is a semi-equivelar map of type $[6^3]$ or $[3^3, 4^2]$ then $X$ is vertex-transitive. We also show, by presenting examples, that this result is not true for the remaining seven types of semi-equivelar maps. There are ten types of semi-equivelar maps on the Klein bottle. We present examples in each of the ten types which are not vertex-transitive.
