The study characterizes straight-line flows in dynamic measure transport.

Study of straight-line flows on a unique infinite surface.

Straight lines are a basin of attraction for the elastic flow at least to level 1.9615π.

The straight-line flow on almost every staircase and on almost every square tiled staircase is recurrent. For almost every square tiled staircase the set of periodic orbits is dense in the phase space.

We prove polynomial upper bounds for the deviation of ergodic averages for the straight line flow on every translation surface in almost every direction, in particular for those surfaces arising from rational polygonal billiards.

We consider the area preserving curve shortening flow with Neumann free boundary conditions outside of a convex domain or at a straight line. We give a criterion on initial curves that guarantees the appearance of a singularity in finite time. We prove that the singularity is of type II. Furthermore, if these initial c…

Generative model learns from simpler distributions on Lie groups.

The paper studies geometric flows of spacelike curves in Lorentz-Minkowski plane and proves their long-term behavior.

In this paper we introduce a new geometric flow --- the hyperbolic gradient flow for graphs in the $(n+1)$-dimensional Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$. This kind of flow is new and very natural to understand the geometry of manifolds. We particularly investigate the global existence of the evolution of convex hypers…

New method shortens and straightens curves, proving convergence and well-posedness.

Correct method found for drawing precise envelope of straight lines.

We interpret magnetic billiards as Finsler ones and describe an analog of the string construction for magnetic billiards. Finsler billiards for which the law "angle of incidence equals angle of reflection" are described. We characterize the Finsler metrics in the plane whose geodesics are circles of a fixed radius. Thi…

Curve diffusion flow straightens curves with endpoints on intersecting lines.

The limit of energies of a sequence of harmonic maps as their annular domains approach the boundary of moduli space depends upon the boundary point approached. The infinite energy case is associated with limits of images containing ruled surfaces. The finite energy case yields a limit of images, under a suitable topolo…

Topology of the Generic Hamiltonian Dynamical Systems on the Riemann Surfaces given by the real part of the generic holomorphic 1-forms, is studied. Our approach is based on the notion of Transversal Canonical Basis of Cycles (TCB). This approach allows us to present a convenient combinatorial model of the whole topolo…

We study those Lagrangian surfaces in complex Euclidean space which are foliated by circles or by straight lines. The former, which we call cyclic, come in three types, each one being described by means of, respectively, a planar curve, a Legendrian curve of the 3-sphere or a Legendrian curve of the anti de Sitter 3-sp…

In this paper, we investigate the ruled surfaces generated by a straight line according to rotation minimizing frame (RMF). Using this frame of a straight line, we obtained the necessary and sufficient conditions when the ruled surface is developable. Also, we give some new results and theorems related to be the asympt…

The Manhattan curve connects metrics of hyperbolic groups, showing rigidity.

Let M be an even dimensional compact Riemannian manifold with boundary and let D be a Dirac operator acting on the sections of the Clifford module E over M. We impose certain local elliptic boundary conditions for D obtaining a selfadjoint extension D_F of D. For a smooth U(n)--valued function g:M -> U(n) we establish …

Characterizes corridors in loss surfaces for gradient-based optimization.

The aim of this paper is to investigate the mean curvature flow soliton solutions on the Heisenberg group $\mathcal{H}$ when the initial data is a ruled surface by straight lines. We give a family of those solutions which are generated by $\mathfrak{Iso}_{0}(\mathcal{H})$ (the isometries of $\mathcal{H}$ for which the …

A string figure is topologically a trivial knot lying on an imaginary plane orthogonal to the fingers with some crossings. The fingers prevent cancellation of these crossings. As a mathematical model of string figure we consider a knot diagram on the $xy$-plane in $xyz$-space missing some straight lines parallel to the…

Sub-Riemannian geometry connects bike paths to mathematical curves.

Neural Flow Diffusion Models improve diffusion models by learning flexible forward processes.

A zero mean curvature surface in the Lorentz-Minkowski 3-space is said to be of Riemann-type if it is foliated by circles and at most countably many straight lines in parallel planes. We classify all zero mean curvature surfaces of Riemann-type according to their causal characters, and as a corollary, we prove that if …

We consider geodesic flows between hypersurfaces in $\R^n$. However, rather than consider using geodesics in $\R^n$, which are straight lines, we consider an induced flow using geodesics between the tangent spaces of the hypersurfaces viewed as affine hyperplanes. For naturality, we want the geodesic flow to be invaria…

The goal of this paper is to describe all local diffeomorphisms mapping a family of circles, in an open subset of $\r^3$, into straight lines. This paper contains two main results. The first is a complete description of the rectifiable collection of circles in $\r^3$ passing through one point. It turns out that to be r…

New method describes entanglement of straight lines in 3D space.

A new method for generative modeling of discrete data using geometric latent subspaces.

The paper explores fully affine maximal curves and their properties.

We consider congruences of straight lines in a plane with the combinatorics of the square grid, with all elementary quadrilaterals possessing an incircle. It is shown that all the vertices of such nets (we call them incircular or IC-nets) lie on confocal conics. Our main new results are on checkerboard IC-nets in the p…

It is well established that in a market with inclusion of a risk-free asset the single-period mean-variance efficient frontier is a straight line tangent to the risky region, a fact that is the very foundation of the classical CAPM. In this paper, it is shown that in a continuous-time market where the risky prices are …

Topology of Foliations of the Riemann Surfaces given by the real part of generic holomorphic 1-forms, is studied. Our approach is based on the notion of Transversal Canonical Basis of Cycles (TCB) instead of using just one closed transversal curve as in the classical approach of the ergodic theory. In some cases the TC…

We generalise a result of Garofalo and Pauls: a horizontally minimal smooth surface embedded in the Heisenberg group is locally a (straight) ruled surface, i.e. it consists of straight lines tangent to a horizontal vector field along a smooth curve. We show additionally that any horizontally minimal surface is locally …

Geodesics found in deep linear networks.

The study compares different game-theoretic attribution methods and finds that interventional Shapley values yield less consistent results than Aumann-Shapley due to path symmetry.

The tangent bundle to the $n$--dimensional sphere is the space of oriented lines in $\R^{n+1}$. We characterise the smooth sections of $TS^n\to S^n$ which correspond to points in $\R^{n+1}$ as gradients of eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on $S^n$ with eigenvalue $n$. The special case of $n=6$ and its connection with al…

Smooth maps preserve distances on specific revolution surfaces.

The lattice stick number of a knot type is defined to be the minimal number of straight line segments required to construct a polygon presentation of the knot type in the cubic lattice. In this paper, we mathematically prove that the trefoil knot $3_1$ and the figure-8 knot $4_1$ are the only knot types of lattice stic…

A constant angle surface in Minkowski space is a spacelike surface whose unit normal vector field makes a constant hyperbolic angle with a fixed timelike vector. In this work we study and classify these surfaces. In particular, we show that they are flat. Next we prove that a tangent developable surface (resp. cylinder…

Consider a bundle of circles passing through 0 in 4-dimensional space. It is said to be rectifiable if there is a germ of diffeomorphism at 0 that takes all circles from our bundle to straight lines. We will give a classification of all rectifiable bundles of circles containing sufficiently many circles in general posi…

We consider the class of evolution equations that describe pseudo-spherical surfaces of the form u\_t = F (u, $\partial$u/$\partial$x, ..., $\partial$^k u/$\partial$x^k), k $\ge$ 2 classified by Chern-Tenenblat. This class of equations is characterized by the property that to each solution of a differential equation wi…

A new coordinate system for SPD matrices simplifies computations and generative modeling.

We consider the Dirichlet Laplacian in a two-dimensional strip composed of segments translated along a straight line with respect to a rotation angle with velocity diverging at infinity. We show that this model exhibits a "raise of dimension" at infinity leading to an essential spectrum determined by an asymptotic thre…

It is known that every nontrivial knot has at least two quadrisecants. Given a knot, we mark each intersection point of each of its quadrisecants. Replacing each subarc between two nearby marked points with a straight line segment joining them, we obtain a polygonal closed curve which we will call the quadrisecant appr…
