In this paper, we study a slant submanifold of a complex space form. We also obtain an integral formula of Simons' type for a Kaehlerian slant submanifold in a complex space form and apply it to prove our main result.

We prove an Atiyah-Bott-Berline-Vergne type localization formula for Killing foliations in the context of equivariant basic cohomology. As an application, we localize some Chern-Simons type invariants, for example the volume of Sasakian manifolds and secondary characteristic classes of Riemannian foliations, to the uni…

Equations of Simons type are presented. They are satisfied by a pair of special operators associated to the immersion $Σ^2\looparrowright M^2(c)\times\mathbb{R}$ with constant mean curvature. Some immersions are characterized.

In this paper, we give a Simons' type formula for the cmc surfaces in homogeneous $3$-manifolds $E(κ,τ)$, $τ\neq0$. As an application, we give a rigidity result in the case of $κ> 4τ^2$ for the cmc surfaces under a pinching assumption of the second fundamental form.

In this paper, we will first derive a DDVV-type optimal inequality for real skew-symmetric matrices, then we apply it to establish a Simons-type integral inequality for Riemannian submersions with totally geodesic fibres and Yang-Mills horizontal distributions. In this way, we show phenomenons of duality between Subman…

We prove a Simons type equation for non-minimal surfaces with parallel mean curvature vector (pmc surfaces) in $M^n(c)\times\mathbb{R}$, where $M^n(c)$ is an $n$-dimensional space form. Then, we use this equation in order to characterize complete non-minimal pmc surfaces with non-negative Gaussian curvature.

We find some integral formulas of Simons and Bochner type and use them to study biharmonic and biconservative submanifolds in space forms. We obtain rigidity results that in the biharmonic case represent partial answers to two well-known conjectures on such submanifolds in spheres.

Study examines surfaces with bounded fractional mean curvature, proving control over local parametrization.

This paper continues the study of Alexandrov-Fenchel inequalities for quermassintegrals for $k$-convex domains. It focuses on the application to the Michael-Simon type inequalities for $k$-curvature operators. The proof uses optimal transport maps as a tool to relate curvature quantities defined on the boundary of a do…

Develop an ABP approach to Sobolev and Michael-Simon inequalities beyond Euclidean volume growth.

We derive the Simons' type equation for $f$-minimal hypersurfaces in weighted Riemannian manifolds and apply it to obtain a pinching theorem for closed $f$-minimal hypersurfaces immersed in the product manifold $\mathbb{S}^n(\sqrt{2(n-1)})\times \mathbb{R}$ with $f=\frac {t^2}{4}$. Also we classify closed $f$-minimal h…

Paper proves pinching theorem for minimal surfaces in spheres.

In this paper we develop an Expectation Maximization(EM) algorithm to estimate the parameter of a Yule-Simon distribution. The Yule-Simon distribution exhibits the "rich get richer" effect whereby an 80-20 type of rule tends to dominate. These distributions are ubiquitous in industrial settings. The EM algorithm presen…

The first part of this text is a gentle exposition of some basic constructions and results in the extended prequantum theory of Chern-Simons-type gauge field theories. We explain in some detail how the action functional of ordinary 3d Chern-Simons theory is naturally localized ("extended", "multi-tiered") to a map on t…

We develop several methods that allow us to compute all-loop partition functions in perturbative Chern-Simons theory with complex gauge group G_C, sometimes in multiple ways. In the background of a non-abelian irreducible flat connection, perturbative G_C invariants turn out to be interesting topological invariants, wh…

In 1974, S.-S. Chern and J. Simons published a paper where they defined a new type of characteristic class - one that depends not just on the topology of a manifold but also on the geometry. The goal of this paper is to investigate what kinds of geometric information is contained in these classes by studying their beha…

Simon type monotonicity formulas for the Willmore functional $\int | \mathbf{H} |^2$ in the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^n$ and $\mathbb{S}^n$ are obtained. The formula gives a lower bound of $\int_Σ | \mathbf{H} |^2$ where $Σ^2$ is any closed surface in $\mathbb{H}^n$.

There is an equivalence relation on the set of smooth maps of a manifold into the stable unitary group, defined using a Chern-Simons type form, whose equivalence classes form an abelian group under ordinary block sum of matrices. This construction is functorial, and defines a differential extension of odd K-theory, fit…

Extending previous work that involved D3-branes ending on a fivebrane with $θ_{\mathrm{YM}}\not=0$, we consider a similar two-sided problem. This construction, in case the fivebrane is of NS type, is associated to the three-dimensional Chern-Simons theory of a supergroup U$(m|n)$ or OSp$(m|2n)$ rather than an ordinary …

J.J.L. Vel$\acute{a}$zquez in 1994 used the degree theory to show that there is a perturbation of Simons' cone, starting from which the mean curvature flow develops a type $\mathrm{II}$ singularity at the origin. He also showed that under a proper time-dependent rescaling of the solution around the origin, the rescaled…

We prove a Simons type formula for submanifolds with parallel mean curvature vector field in product spaces of type $M^n(c)\times\mathbb{R}$, where $M^n(c)$ is a space form with constant sectional curvature $c$, and then we use it to characterize some of these submanifolds.

Vogel's construction links knot invariants to Lie algebras, revealing new insights.

We formulate large $N$ duality of $\mathrm{U}(N)$ refined Chern-Simons theory with a torus knot/link in $S^3$. By studying refined BPS states in M-theory, we provide the explicit form of low-energy effective actions of Type IIA string theory with D4-branes on the $Ω$-background. This form enables us to relate refined C…

We introduce certain relative differential characters which we call Cheeger-Chern-Simons characters. These combine the well-known Cheeger-Simons characters with Chern-Simons forms. In the same way as the Cheeger-Simons characters generalize Chern-Simons invariants of oriented closed manifolds, the Cheeger-Chern-Simons …
