Study of generalized double Bruhat cells and their integrations.

Given a standard complex semisimple Poisson Lie group $(G, π_{st})$, generalised double Bruhat cells $G^{u, v}$ and generalised Bruhat cells $O^u$ equipped with naturally defined holomorphic Poisson structures, where u, v are finite sequences of Weyl group elements, were defined and studied by Jiang Hua Lu and the auth…

Let $G$ be a connected complex semisimple Lie group, equipped with a standard multiplicative Poisson structure $π_{\rm st}$ determined by a pair of opposite Borel subgroups $(B, B_-)$. We prove that for each $v$ in the Weyl group $W$ of $G$, the double Bruhat cell $G^{v,v} = BvB \cap B_-vB_-$ in $G$, together with the …

We relate Kostant's theorem on the cohomology of a flag manifold $G/B$ with the geometry of the Bruhat-Poisson structure. We express Kostant's harmonic forms in terms of the moment maps (for the torus action) and the Liouville volume forms for the symplectic structures on the Schubert cells induced by the Bruhat-Poisso…

We study the lifting of the Schubert stratification of the homogeneous space of complete real flags of $R^{n+1}$ to its universal covering group $Spin_{n+1}$. We call the lifted strata the Bruhat cells of $Spin_{n+1}$, in keeping with the homonymous classical decomposition of reductive algebraic groups. We present expl…

This paper proves a conjecture of Fomin and Shapiro that their combinatorial model for any Bruhat interval is a regular CW complex which is homeomorphic to a ball. The model consists of a stratified space which may be regarded as the link of an open cell intersected with a larger closed cell, all within the totally non…

The purpose of this paper is to describe certain natural 4-vector fields on quaternionic flag manifolds, which geometrically determine the Bruhat cell decomposition. This structure naturally descends from the symplectic group, where it is related to the dressing action given by the Iwasawa decomposition of the general …

Let $\mathbb{F}_{Θ}=G/P_{Θ}$ be a generalized flag manifold, where $G$ is a real noncompact semi-simple Lie group and $P_{Θ}$ a parabolic subgroup. A classical result says the Schubert cells, which are the closure of the Bruhat cells, endow $\mathbb{F}_Θ$ with a cellular CW structure. In this paper we exhibit explicit …

Researchers found all embeddings of Kuratowski graphs on a double torus.

A parametric curve $γ$ of class $C^n$ on the $n$-sphere is said to be nondegenerate (or locally convex) when $\det\left(γ(t),γ'(t),\cdots,γ^{(n)}(t)\right)>0$ for all values of the parameter $t$. We orthogonalize this ordered basis to obtain the Frenet frame $\mathfrak{F}_γ$ of $γ$ assuming values in the orthogonal gro…

For a connected abelian Lie group T acting on a Poisson manifold (Y,π) by Poisson isomorphisms, the T-leaves of π in Y are, by definition, the orbits of the symplectic leaves of π under T, and the leaf stabilizer of a T-leaf is the subspace of the Lie algebra of T that is everywhere tangent to all the symplectic leaves…

Let $G$ be a connected complex semi-simple Lie group, and let $Z_{\bf u}$ be an $n$-dimensional Bott-Samelson variety of $G$, where ${\bf u}$ is any sequence of simple reflections in the Weyl group of $G$. We study the Poisson structure $π_n$ on $Z_{\bf u}$ defined by a standard multiplicative Poisson structure $π_{\rm…

Hypernom is a virtual reality game. The cells of a regular 4D polytope are radially projected to S^3, the sphere in 4D space, then stereographically projected to 3D space where they are viewed in the headset. The orientation of the headset is given by an element of the group SO(3), which is also a space that is double …

Enhanced Bruhat decomposition studies Morse theory and Reidemeister torsion.

We establish the Gaussian Multi-Bubble Conjecture: the least Gaussian-weighted perimeter way to decompose $\mathbb{R}^n$ into $q$ cells of prescribed (positive) Gaussian measure when $2 \leq q \leq n+1$, is to use a "simplicial cluster", obtained from the Voronoi cells of $q$ equidistant points. Moreover, we prove that…

Short-time existence for the Einstein-Euler and the vacuum Einstein equations is proven using a Friedrich inspired formulation due to Choquet-Bruhat and York, where the system is cast into a symmetric hyperbolic form and the Riemann tensor is treated as one of the fundamental unknowns of the problem. The reduced system…

We consider the Gopakumar-Ooguri-Vafa correspondence, relating ${\rm U}(N)$ Chern-Simons theory at large $N$ to topological strings, in the context of spherical Seifert 3-manifolds. These are quotients $\mathbb{S}^Γ = Γ\backslash\mathbb{S}^3$ of the three-sphere by the free action of a finite isometry group. Guided by …

We establish the Gaussian Double-Bubble Conjecture: the least Gaussian-weighted perimeter way to decompose $\mathbb{R}^n$ into three cells of prescribed (positive) Gaussian measure is to use a tripod-cluster, whose interfaces consist of three half-hyperplanes meeting along an $(n-2)$-dimensional plane at $120^{\circ}$ …

This work constructs groupoids from flat bundles over surfaces.

In this thesis, we study singular pseudo-differential operators defined by groupoids satisfying the Lauter-Nistor condition, by a method parallel to that of manifolds with boundary and edge differential operators. The example of the Bruhat sphere is studied in detail. In particular, we construct an extension to the cal…

This article is one of three highly influential articles on the topology of manifolds written by Robert D. Edwards in the 1970's but never published. It presents the initial solutions of the fabled Double Suspension Conjecture. (The other two articles are: 'Approximating certain cell-like maps by homeomorphisms' and 'T…

Let $\mathcal{J}^1$ be the real form of a complex simple Jordan algebra such that the automorphism group is $\mathrm{F}_{4(-20)}$. By using some orbit types of $\mathrm{F}_{4(-20)}$ on $\mathcal{J}^1$, for $\mathrm{F}_{4(-20)}$, explicitly, we give the Iwasawa decomposition, the Oshima--Sekiguchi's $K_ε-$Iwasawa decomp…

The purpose of this note is to give a simple description of a (complete) family of functions in involution on certain hermitian symmetric spaces. This family, obtained via bi-hamiltonian approach using the Bruhat Poisson structure, is especially simple for the projective spaces, where the formulas in terms of the momen…

Confirms isoperimetric conjectures on R^n and S^n for q ≤ min(5, n+1).

Colour vision has long fascinated scientists, who have sought to understand both the physiology of the mechanics of colour vision and the psychophysics of colour perception. We consider representations of colour in anatomically constrained convolutional deep neural networks. Following ideas from neuroscience, we classi…

We obtain an analog of the compression of angles theorem in symmetric spaces for Bruhat--Tits buildings of the type $A$. More precisely, consider a $p$-adic linear space $V$ and the set $Lat(V)$ of all lattices in $V$. The complex distance in $Lat(V)$ is a complete system of invariants of a pair of points of $Lat(V)$ u…

Our aim in this paper is to provide a theory of discrete Riemann surfaces based on quadrilateral cellular decompositions of Riemann surfaces together with their complex structure encoded by complex weights. Previous work, in particular of Mercat, mainly focused on real weights corresponding to quadrilateral cells havin…

We prove that there are no networks homeomorphic to the Greek "theta" letter (a double cell) embedded in the plane with two triple junctions with angles of $120$ degrees, such that under the motion by curvature they are self-similarly shrinking. This fact completes the classification of the self-similarly shrinking net…

Dynamic cell-free networks reduce complexity in serving many devices with distributed APs and DRL.

We study a class of Poisson-Nijenhuis systems defined on compact hermitian symmetric spaces, where the Nijenhuis tensor is defined as the composition of Kirillov-Konstant-Souriau symplectic form with the so called Bruhat-Poisson structure. We determine its spectrum. In the case of Grassmannians the eigenvalues are the …

Non-positively curved spaces admitting a cocompact isometric action of an amenable group are investigated. A classification is established under the assumption that there is no global fixed point at infinity under the full isometry group. The visual boundary is then a spherical building. When the ambient space is geode…

This paper explores non-periodic folding of Spidron units, revealing nonlinear dynamics.

Maps complex varieties into buildings with harmonic properties.

Locally convex (or nondegenerate) curves in the sphere (or projective space) have been studied for several reasons, including the study of linear ordinary differential equations. Taking Frenet frames allows us to translate such curves into corresponding curves in the flag space, the orthogonal group or its cover $Spin_…

We investigate the poset of strata of a Schubert-like stratification of certain natural compactification of the space of hermitian $n\times n$ matrices. We prove that this poset is a modular ortholattice, we compute its Möbius function and we describe the topology of its order intervals.

We follow the approach employed by Y. Choquet-Bruhat, J. Isenberg and D. Pollack in the case of closed manifolds and establish existence and non-existence results for the Einstein-scalar field constraint equations on asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds.

Let F be a non-Archimedean local field and let E be a finite extension of F. Let G be a split semisimple F group. We discuss how to compare volumes on the Bruhat-Tits buildings B_E and B_F of G(E) and G(F) respectively.

Study connects Morse theory with cluster variables for wall-crossing in Cerf diagrams.

Recurrent convolution (RC) shares the same convolutional kernels and unrolls them multiple steps, which is originally proposed to model time-space signals. We argue that RC can be viewed as a model compression strategy for deep convolutional neural networks. RC reduces the redundancy across layers. However, the perform…

We classify all harmonic maps of finite uniton number from a Riemann surface into SU(n) in terms of certain pieces of the Bruhat decomposition of the subgroup of algebraic loops in SU(n). We give a description of the "Frenet frame data" for such harmonic maps in a given class.

A Dehn sphere in a closed 3-manifold M is a 2-sphere immersed in M with only double curve and triple point singularities. The Dehn sphere S fills M if it defines a cell-decomposition of M. The inverse image in S^{2} of the double curves of S is the Johansson diagram of S and if S fills M it is possible to reconstruct M…

We consider surfaces in ${\mathbb R}^3$ of type ${\mathbb S}^2$ which minimize the Willmore functional with prescribed isoperimetric ratio. The existence of smooth minimizers was proved by Schygulla (Archive Rational Mechanics and Analysis, 2012). In the singular limit when the isoperimetric ratio converges to zero, he…

We develop the structure theory of full isometry groups of locally compact non-positively curved metric spaces. Amongst the discussed themes are de Rham decompositions, normal subgroup structure and characterising properties of symmetric spaces and Bruhat--Tits buildings. Applications to discrete groups and further dev…
