Let $T(S)$ be the Teichmuller space over a hyperbolic Riemann surface $S$. A geodesic disk in $T(S)$ is defined the image of an isometric embedding of the Poincar\'e disk into $T(S)$. In this paper, it is shown that for any non-Strebel point $\tau\in T(S)\backslash\{[0]\}$, there are infinitely many geodesic disks containing the straight line $\{[t\mu]:\,t\in (-1/k,1/k)\}$ where $\mu$ is an extremal representative of $\tau$ with $\|\mu\|_\infty=k$. An infinitesimal version is also obtained.

In this paper, several versions of gluing theorems for quasiconformal mappings in the plane are obtained. The best possibility of gluing quasiconformal mappings is investigated. As an application, we provide a new short proof of the gluing theorem obtained by Jiang and Qi.

We study rooted cluster algebras and rooted cluster mor-phisms which were introduced in [1]recently and cluster struc-tures in 2-Calabi–Yau triangulated categories. An example of rooted cluster morphism which is not ideal is given, this clar-ifyinga doubt in [1]. We introduce the notion of freezing of a seed and show that an injective rooted cluster morphism always arises from a freezing and a subseed. Moreover, it is a section if and only if it arises from a subseed. This answers the Problem 7.7 in [1]. We prove that an inducible rooted clus-ter morphism is ideal if and only if it can be decomposed as a surjective rooted cluster morphism and an injective rooted cluster morphism. For rooted cluster algebras arising from a 2-Calabi–Yau triangulated category Cwith cluster tilting ob-jects, we give an one-to-one correspondence between certain pairs of their rooted cluster subalgebras which we call com-plete pairs (see Definition2.27) and cotorsion pairs in C.

In this paper, employing a new inequality, we show that under certain curvature pinching condition, the strictly convex closed smooth self-similar solution of $\sigma_k^{\alpha}$-flow must be a round sphere. We also obtain a similar result for the solutions of $F=-\langle X, e_{n+1}\rangle \, (*)$ with a non-homogeneous function $F$. At last, we prove that if $F$ can be compared with $\frac{(n-k+1)\sigma_{k-1}}{k\sigma_{k}}$, then a closed strictly $k$-convex solution of $(*)$ must be a round sphere.
