Study solves equations on tori for Calabi-Yau problems.

We prove that fundamental groups of non-orientable 3-manifolds have a solvable conjugacy problem, and construct an algorithm. Together with our earlier work on the conjugacy problem in groups on orientable geometrizable 3-manifolds, all $π_1$ of (geometrizable) 3-manifolds have a solvable conjugacy problem. In corollar…

Sharp conditions found for solving heat equation on Riemannian manifolds.

$2$-stratifolds are a generalization of $2$-manifolds in that there are disjoint simple closed curves where several sheets meet. We show that the word problem for fundamental groups of $2$-stratifolds is solvable.

The paper solves Monge-Ampère equations on reflexive polytopes, linking solvability to SYZ conjecture and tropical geometry.

We show that any subgroup of a (virtually) nilpotent-by-polycyclic group satisfies the bounded packing property of Hruska-Wise. In particular, the same is true about metabelian groups and linear solvable groups. However, we find an example of a finitely generated solvable group of derived length 3 which admits a finite…

Let $ω_\mathfrak{g}$ be a Lie algebra valued differential $1$-form on a manifold $M$ satisfying the structure equations $d ω_\mathfrak{g} + \frac{1}{2} ω_\mathfrak{g}\wedge ω_\mathfrak{g}=0$ where $\mathfrak{g}$ is solvable. We show that the problem of finding a smooth map $ρ:M\to G$, where $G$ is an $n$-dimensional so…

New obstructions show links with vanishing Milnor invariants may not be concordant to homology boundary links.

Paper finds non-positive Weyl connections on Lie groups, confirming a conjecture.

We consider the problem of computing the integrable sub-distributions of the non-integrable Vessiot distribution of multi-dimensional second order partial differential equations (PDEs). We use Vessiot theory and solvable structures to find the largest integrable distributions contained in the Vessiot distribution assoc…

Solvability of the conjugacy problem for relatively hyperbolic groups was announced by Gromov [Hyperbolic groups, MSRI publications 8 (1987)]. Using the definition of Farb of a relatively hyperbolic group in the strong sense [B Farb, Relatively hyperbolic groups, Geom. Func. Anal. 8 (1998) 810-840], we prove this asser…

Extended logarithm for solvable elements in mapping class groups.

It is well known that the Serrin condition is a necessary condition for the solvability of the Dirichlet problem for the prescribed mean curvature equation in bounded domains of $\mathbb{R}^n$ with certain regularity. In this paper we investigate the sharpness of the Serrin condition for the vertical mean curvature equ…

Study on solvable Lie groups with specific Weyl connections.

Solvable structures, likewise solvable algebras of local symmetries, can be used to integrate scalar ODEs by quadratures. Solvable structures, however, are particularly suitable for the integration of ODEs with a lack of local symmetries. In fact, under regularity assumptions, any given ODE always admits solvable struc…

We prove that the set of smooth, $π$-periodic, positive functions on the unit circle for which the $L_{-2}$ Minkowski problem is solvable is dense in the set of all smooth, $π$-periodic, positive functions on the unit circle with respect to the $L^{\infty}$ norm. Furthermore, we obtain a necessary condition on the solv…

Alternative solvability criterion for minimal surface equations and mean curvature flow.

In this paper we prove the existence of complete, noncompact convex hypersurfaces whose $p$-curvature function is prescribed on a domain in the unit sphere. This problem is related to the solvability of Monge-Ampère type equations subject to certain boundary conditions depending on the value of $p$. The special case of…

We give a general criterion for the Dirichlet problem at infinity (DPI) on a Cartan-Hadamard surface to be solvable, which we primarily use to give the best possible upper radial radial curvature bound for solvability of the DPI, but which is also flexible enough to accommodate flats. In particular, any (upper) radial …

Proves local solvability for $G_2$-structures with Poisson equations.

A Levi-Malcev type decomposition for $2$-step solvable Lie algebras with a complex structure

We consider two natural problems arising in geometry which are equivalent to the local solvability of specific equations of Monge-Ampere type. These are: the problem of locally prescribed Gaussian curvature for surfaces in R^3, and the local isometric embedding problem for two-dimensional Riemannian manifolds. We prove…

This article continues a line of research aimed at solving an important problem of T. Kobayashi of the existence of compact Clifford-Klein forms of reductive homogeneous spaces. We contribute to this topic by showing that almost all symmetric spaces and 3-symmetric spaces do not admit solvable compact CliffordfKlein fo…

In this paper the robust utility maximization problem for a market model based on Lévy processes is analyzed. The interplay between the form of the utility function and the penalization function required to have a well posed problem is studied, and for a large class of utility functions it is proved that the dual probl…

3-manifold groups' word problem solved in nearly linear time.

We exhibit a family of infinite, finitely-presented, nilpotent-by-abelian groups. Each member of this family is a solvable S-arithmetic group that is related to Baumslag-Solitar groups, and everyone of these groups has a quasi-isometry group that is virtually a product of a solvable real Lie group and a solvable p-adic…

A {\em solvable} cover of a graph is a regular cover whose covering transformation group is solvable. In this paper, we show that a solvable cover of a graph can be decomposed into layers of abelian covers, and also, a lift of a given automorphism of the base graph of a solvable cover can be decomposed into layers of l…

Classifies Ricci soliton subgroups in specific Lie groups.

It is shown that a closed solvable subgroup of a connected Lie group is compactly generated. In particular, every discrete solvable subgroup of a connected Lie group is finitely generated. Generalizations to locally compact groups are discussed as far as they carry.

This work is focused on the solvability of initial-boundary value problems for degenerate parabolic partial differential equations that arise in the pricing of Asian options, and on the investigation of differential and certain qualitative properties of solutions of such equations. The generalized solvability for such …

A compact solvmanifold of completely solvable type, i.e. a compact quotient of a completely solvable Lie group by a lattice, has a Kähler structure if and only if it is a complex torus. We show more in general that a compact solvmanifold $M$ of completely solvable type endowed with an invariant complex structure $J$ ad…

We analyze symplectic forms on six dimensional real solvable and non-nilpotent Lie algebras. More precisely, we obtain all those algebras endowed with a symplectic form that decompose as the direct sum of two ideals or are indecomposable solvable algebras with a four dimensional nilradical.

We study the Dirichlet problem for minimal surface systems in arbitrary dimension and codimension via mean curvature flow, and obtain the existence of minimal graphs over arbitrary mean convex bounded $C^2$ domains for a large class of prescribed boundary data. This result can be seen as a natural generalization of the…

The main contribution of our paper is to give a partial classification of the quasi-exactly solvable Lie algebras of first order differential operators in three variables, and to show how this can be applied to the construction of new quasi-exactly solvable Schrödinger operators in three dimensions.
