We describe and construct here pseudo-Hermitian structures $θ$ without torsion (i.e. with transversal symmetry) whose Webster-Ricci curvature tensor is a constant multiple of the exterior differential $dθ$. We call these structures pseudo-Hermitian Einstein and our result states that they all can be derived locally fro…

We obtain a necessary and sufficient condition of existence of a K{ä}hler-Einstein metric on a $G\times G$-equivariant Fano compactification of a complex connected reductive group $G$ in terms of the associated polytope. This condition is not equivalent to the vanishing of the Futaki invariant. The proof relies on the …

The paper studies Ricci curvature on Kähler-Ricci flow.

Given a convex body $K \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ with the barycenter at the origin we consider the corresponding K{ä}hler-Einstein equation $e^{-Φ} = \det D^2 Φ$. If $K$ is a simplex, then the Ricci tensor of the Hessian metric $D^2 Φ$ is constant and equals $\frac{n-1}{4(n+1)}$. We conjecture that the Ricci tensor of $D^2…

Continuity of complex Monge-Ampère potentials on Kähler manifolds.

In this paper, we show that any compact K$ä$hler manifold homotopic to a compact Riemannian manifold with negative sectional curvature admits a K$ä$hler-Einstein metric of general type. Moreover, we prove that, on a compact symplectic manifold $X$ homotopic to a compact Riemannian manifold with negative sectional curva…

We prove that a compact stratied space satises the Riemannian curvature-dimension condition RCD(K, N) if and only if its Ricci tensor is bounded below by K $\in$ R on the regular set, the cone angle along the stratum of codimension two is smaller than or equal to 2$π$ and its dimension is at most equal to N. This gives…

Newly discovered Eguchi-Hanson metric arises from edge metrics.

This note demonstrates how both the concept of distance and the concept of holonomy can be constructed from a suitable network with directed edges (and no lengths). The number of different edge types depends on the signature of the metric and the dimension of the holonomy group. If the holonomy group is of dimension on…

A normal form for edge metrics is derived under the necessary conditions that the metric be normalized and exact. The normal forms for such an edge metric are shown to be in 1-1 correspondence with representative metrics for a reduced conformal infinity on the boundary. The normal form is constructed via solution of a …

In this paper we prove local existence of a Ricci de Turck flow starting at a space with incomplete edge singularities and flowing for a short time within a class of incomplete edge manifolds. We derive regularity properties for the corresponding family of Riemannian metrics and discuss boundedness of the Ricci curvatu…

Study of Ricci flow on trees, focusing on edge weights and curvatures.

Recently, Atiyah and LeBrun proved versions of the Gauss-Bonnet and Hirzebruch signature Theorems for metrics with edge-cone singularities in dimension four, which they applied to obtain an inequality of Hitchin-Thorpe type for Einstein edge-cone metrics. Interestingly, many natural examples of edge-cone metrics in dim…

In this paper we characterize logarithmic surfaces which admit Kähler-Einstein metrics with negative scalar curvature and small edge singularities along a normal crossing divisor.

The paper predicts edge weights in weighted directed networks using metric geometry.

Much of the focus in the design of deep neural networks has been on improving accuracy, leading to more powerful yet highly complex network architectures that are difficult to deploy in practical scenarios, particularly on edge devices such as mobile and other consumer devices given their high computational and memory …

In this note, we propose a new approach to solving the Calabi problem on manifolds with edge-cone singularities of prescribed angles along complex hypersurfaces. It is shown how the classical approach of Aubin-Yau in derving {\it a priori} estimates for the complex hessian can be made to work via adopting a \emph{good …

In this paper, we give two classes of positive semi-definite metrics on 2-manifolds. The one is called a class of Kossowski metrics and the other is called a class of Whitney metrics: The pull-back metrics of wave fronts which admit only cuspidal edges and swallowtails in $\boldsymbol{R}^3$ are Kossowski metrics, and t…

This article considers the existence and regularity of Kahler-Einstein metrics on a compact Kahler manifold $M$ with edge singularities with cone angle $2πβ$ along a smooth divisor $D$. We prove existence of such metrics with negative, zero and some positive cases for all cone angles $2πβ\leq 2π$. The results in the po…

We derive a formula for the index of a Dirac operator on a compact, even-dimensional incomplete edge space satisfying a "geometric Witt condition". We accomplish this by cutting off to a smooth manifold with boundary, applying the Atiyah-Patodi-Singer index theorem, and taking a limit. We deduce corollaries related to …

On any odd-dimensional oriented Riemannian manifold we define a volume form, which we call the odd Pfaffian, through a certain invariant polynomial with integral coefficients in the curvature tensor. We prove an intrinsic Chern-Gauss-Bonnet formula for incomplete edge singularities in terms of the odd Pfaffian on the f…

We study positive scalar curvature on the regular part of Riemannian manifolds with singular, uniformly Euclidean ($L^\infty$) metrics that consolidate Gromov's scalar curvature polyhedral comparison theory and edge metrics that appear in the study of Einstein manifolds. We show that, in all dimensions, edge singularit…

Let $(X,g)$ be a compact Riemannian stratified space with simple edge singularity. Thus a neighbourhood of the singular stratum is a bundle of truncated cones over a lower dimensional compact smooth manifold. We calculate the various polynomially weighted de Rham cohomology spaces of $X$, as well as the associated spac…

Several structure learning algorithms have been proposed towards discovering causal or Bayesian Network (BN) graphs. The validity of these algorithms tends to be evaluated by assessing the relationship between the learnt and the ground truth graph. However, there is no agreed scoring metric to determine this relationsh…

Let (M,g) be a compact oriented Riemannian manifold with an incomplete edge singularity. This article shows that it is possible to evolve g by the Yamabe flow within a class of singular edge metrics. As the main analytic step we establish parabolic Schauder-type estimates for the heat operator on certain Hölder spaces …

Study of singular metrics with negative scalar curvature on compact manifolds.

In the emerging advancement in the branch of autonomous robotics, the ability of a robot to efficiently localize and construct maps of its surrounding is crucial. This paper deals with utilizing thermal-infrared cameras, as opposed to conventional cameras as the primary sensor to capture images of the robot's surroundi…

We study Einstein metrics on smooth compact 4-manifolds with an edge-cone singularity of specified cone angle along an embedded 2-manifold. To do so, we first derive modified versions of the Gauss-Bonnet and signature theorems for arbitrary Riemannian 4-manifolds with edge-cone singularities, and then show that these y…

In this paper, we study the weak compactness of the set of conformal metrics in any Riemann surface without boundary whose Calabi energy and area are uniformly bounded. We prove that for any sequence of such metrics, there alwasy exists a subsequence which converges in H\sp{2,2}_\sb{loc} everywhere except a finite numb…

Tian initiated the study of incomplete Kähler-Einstein metrics on quasi-projective varieties with cone-edge type singularities along a divisor, described by the cone-angle $2π(1-α)$ for $α\in (0, 1)$. In this paper we study how the existence of such Kähler-Einstein metrics depends on $α$. We show that in the negative s…

The classical theorem of Fáry states that every planar graph can be represented by an embedding in which every edge is represented by a straight line segment. We consider generalizations of Fáry's theorem to surfaces equipped with Riemannian metrics. In this setting, we require that every edge is drawn as a shortest pa…

We construct Ricci flat Kahler metrics with cone singularities along a complex hypersurface. This construction is inspired in part by R. Mazzeo's program in the case of negative Einstein constant, and uses the linear theory developed recently by S. Donaldson.

We describe the first-order variations of the angles of Euclidean, spherical or hyperbolic polygons under infinitesimal deformations such that the lengths of the edges do not change. Using this description, we introduce a vector-valued quadratic invariant $b$ on the space of those isometric deformations which, for conv…
