The study establishes bounds for Schrödinger operators on Riemannian manifolds.

Generative model for time series using Schrödinger bridge.

In this paper, we partially settle down the long standing open problem of the finite time blow-up property about the nonlinear Schr$\ddot{o}$dinger equations on some Riemannian manifolds like the standard 2-sphere $S^2$ and the hyperbolic 2-space $H^{2}(-1)$. Using the similar idea, we establish such blow-up results on…

Characterizes Schrödinger operator boundedness on weighted Riemannian manifolds.

We give a new lower bound for the first gap $λ_2 - λ_1$ of the Dirichlet eigenvalues of the Schr{ö}dinger operator on a bounded convex domain $Ω$ in R$^n$ or S$^n$ and greatly sharpens the previous estimates. The new bound is explicit and computable.

Suppose that $G=(V, E)$ is a finite graph with the vertex set $V$ and the edge set $E$. Let $Δ$ be the usual graph Laplacian. Consider the following nonlinear Schr$\ddot{o}$dinger type equation of the form $\left \{ \begin{array}{lcr} -Δu-αu=f(x,u),\\ u\in W^{1,2}(V),\\ \end{array} \right.$ on graph $G$, where $f(x…

CMCD sampler connects transport and variational inference for efficient sampling.

Study shows observability for Schrödinger equations on product manifolds with specific conditions.

For the spherical Laplacian on the sphere and for the Dirichlet Laplacian in the square}, Antonie Stern claimed in her PhD thesis (1924) the existence of an infinite sequence of eigenvalues whose corresponding eigenspaces contain an eigenfunction with exactly two nodal domains. These results were given complete proofs …

We solved the Schr{ö}dinger equation for a particle in a uniform magnetic field in the n-dimensional torus. We obtained a complete set of solutions for a broad class of problems; the torus T^n = R^n / Λ is defined as a quotient of the Euclidean space R^n by an arbitrary n-dimensional lattice Λ. The lattice is not neces…

The goal of this article is twofold: in a first part, we prove Gaussian estimates for the heat kernel of Schr{ö}dinger operators delta + V whose potential V is "small at infinity" in an integral sense. In a second part, we prove sharp boundedness result for the associated Riesz transform with potential d(delta+V) --1/2…

New inequalities for spectral zeta kernels on spheres and manifolds.

In this paper, the Dirac, twistor and Killing equations on Weyl manifolds with CSpin structures are investigated. A conformal Schr"odinger-Lichnerowicz formula is presented and used to show integrability conditions for these equations. By introducing the Killing equation for spinors of arbitrary weight, the result of A…

New examples of knots with special bridge positions found.

The paper provides examples of keen weakly reducible bridge spheres for links in b-bridge position.

We compute the bridge spectra of cables of 2-bridge knots. We also give some results about bridge spectra and distance of Montesinos knots.

Any 2-bridge knot in the 3-sphere has a bridge sphere from which any other bridge surface can be obtained by stabilization, meridional stabilization, perturbation and proper isotopy.

Suppose a knot in a $3$-manifold is in $n$-bridge position. We consider a reduction of the knot along a bridge disk $D$ and show that the result is an $(n-1)$-bridge position if and only if there is a bridge disk $E$ such that $(D, E)$ is a cancelling pair. We apply this to an unknot $K$, in $n$-bridge position with re…

We define and compare several natural ways to compute the bridge number of a knot diagram. We study bridge numbers of crossing number minimizing diagrams, as well as the behavior of diagrammatic bridge numbers under the connected sum operation. For each notion of diagrammatic bridge number considered, we find crossing …

New method finds infinitely many surface knots with specific bridge numbers.

Researchers found infinite links with specific bridge positions.

We show that if $K$ is a knot in $S^3$ and $Σ$ is a bridge sphere for $K$ with high distance and $2n$ punctures, the number of perturbations of $K$ required to interchange the two balls bounded by $Σ$ via an isotopy is $n$. We also construct a knot with two different bridge spheres with $2n$ and $2n-1$ bridges respecti…

We show that for every integer $b\geq 3$, there exists a link in a $b$-bridge position with respect to a critical bridge sphere. In fact, for each $b$, we construct an infinite family of links which we call square whose bridge spheres are critical.

Two-bridge ribbon knots have symmetric union presentations.

We give a locally minimal, but not globally minimal bridge position of a knot, that is, an unstabilized, nonminimal bridge position of a knot. It implies that a bridge position cannot always be simplified so that the bridge number monotonically decreases to the minimal.

Paper explores link and plat presentations, showing equivalence under bridge isotopy.

We give a complete characterization of those essential simple loops on 2-bridge spheres of 2-bridge links which are null-homotopic in the link complements. By using this result, we describe all upper-meridian-pair-preserving epimorphisms between 2-bridge link groups.

Bridge positions of handlebody-knots are equivalent when stable.

Paper refines generating function for 2-bridge knot groups.

The study calculates braid indices for two-bridge knots and proves inequalities.

We show that there exists an infinite family of knots, each of which has, for each integer k>=0, a destabilized (2k+5)-bridge sphere. We also show that, for each integer n>=4, there exists a knot with a destabilized 3-bridge sphere and a destabilized n-bridge sphere.

For any given number of crossings $c$, there exists a formula to determine the number of 2-bridge knots of $c$ crossings, and indeed it is a simple matter to actually construct presentations of these knots. However, the determination of whether a given (prime) knot is a 2-bridge knot remains a nontrivial exercise, and …

New unbiased methods for generating stochastic bridges with given extrema.

In this paper and its prequel, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for two essential simple loops on a 2-bridge sphere in an even Heckoid orbifold for a 2-bridge link to be homotopic in the orbifold. We also give a necessary and sufficient condition for an essential simple loop on a 2-bridge sphere in an even …

In this paper and its sequel, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for two essential simple loops on a 2-bridge sphere in an even Heckoid orbifold for a 2-bridge link to be homotopic in the orbifold. We also give a necessary and sufficient condition for an essential simple loop on a 2-bridge sphere in an even H…

The purpose of this note is to announce complete answers to the following questions. (1) For an essential simple loop on a 2-bridge sphere in a 2-bridge link complement, when is it null-homotopic in the link complement? (2) For two distinct essential simple loops on a 2-bridge sphere in a 2-bridge link complement, when…

Perturbing non-minimal bridge positions of a knot ensures similar behavior for its cable links.

The author, in her previous paper, constructed an infinite family of 3-bridge links each of which admits infinitely many 3-bridge spheres up to isotopy. In this paper, we prove that if a prime, unsplittable link $L$ in $S^3$ admits infinitely many 3-bridge spheres up to isotopy then $L$ belongs to the family.

We introduce bridge trisections of knotted surfaces in the four-sphere. This description is inspired by the work of Gay and Kirby on trisections of four-manifolds and extends the classical concept of bridge splittings of links in the three-sphere to four dimensions. We prove that every knotted surface in the four-spher…

The paper calculates bridge numbers for knots using machine learning.

Formula found for braid index of $n$-bridge braids.

This is the second of a series of papers which give a necessary and sufficient condition for two essential simple loops on a 2-bridge sphere in a 2-bridge link complement to be homotopic in the link complement. The first paper of the series treated the case of the 2-bridge torus links. In this paper, we treat the case …

We show that any non-minimal bridge decomposition of a torus knot is stabilized and that $n$-bridge decompositions of a torus knot are unique for any integer $n$. This implies that a knot in a bridge position is a torus knot if and only if there exists a torus containing the knot such that it intersects the bridge sphe…

Paper introduces danceability index as a new bridge index definition.

We extend techniques due to Pardon to show that there is a lower bound on the distortion of a knot in $\mathbb{R}^3$ proportional to the minimum of the bridge distance and the bridge number of the knot. We also exhibit an infinite family of knots for which the minimum of the bridge distance and the bridge number is unb…
