Proves volume conjecture for double twist knots using complexified tetrahedrons.

A technique to calculate the colored Jones polynomials of satellite knots, illustrated by the Whitehead doubles of knots, is presented. Then we prove the volume conjecture for Whitehead doubles of a family of torus knots and show some interesting observations.

We present a conjecture, based on computational results, on the area minimizing way to enclose and separate two arbitrary volumes in the flat cubic 3-torus. For comparable small volumes, we prove that an area minimizing double bubble in the 3-torus is the standard double bubble from R^3.

Ancient caloric functions on manifolds with polynomial growth are studied under volume doubling barrier.

The classic double bubble theorem says that the least-perimeter way to enclose and separate two prescribed volumes in $\mathbb{R}^N$ is the standard double bubble. We seek the optimal double bubble in $\mathbb{R}^N$ with density, which we assume to be strictly log-convex. For $N=1$ we show that the solution is sometime…

The paper proves an infinite double bubble theorem in higher dimensions.

We give explicit formulae for the volumes of hyperbolic cone-manifolds of double twist knots, a class of two-bridge knots which includes twist knots and two-bridge knots with Conway notation $C(2n,3)$. We also study the Riley polynomial of a class of one-relator groups which includes two-bridge knot groups.

Characterizes when almost smooth spaces become RCD spaces.

The classical isoperimetric inequality in R^3 states that the surface of smallest area enclosing a given volume is a sphere. We show that the least area surface enclosing two equal volumes is a double bubble, a surface made of two pieces of round spheres separated by a flat disk, meeting along a single circle at an ang…

We prove that the standard double bubble provides the least-area way to enclose and separate two regions of prescribed volume in \Bbb R^3.

Study reveals how model volume affects learning curves in machine learning.

We prove the double bubble conjecture in the three-sphere $S^3$ and hyperbolic three-space $H^3$ in the cases where we can apply Hutchings theory: 1) in $S^3$, each enclosed volume and the complement occupy at least 10% of the volume of $S^3$; 2) in $H^3$, the smaller volume is at least 85% that of the larger. A balanc…

In recent years, several families of hyperbolic knots have been shown to have both volume and $λ_1$ (first eigenvalue of the Laplacian) bounded in terms of the twist number of a diagram, while other families of knots have volume bounded by a generalized twist number. We show that for general knots, neither the twist nu…

New examples show some manifolds can't be decomposed.

We discuss some additivity properties of the simplicial volume for manifolds with boundary: we give proofs of additivity for glueing amenable boundary components and of superadditivity for glueing amenable submanifolds of the boundary, and we discuss doubling of 3-manifolds.

An elementary proof found for the double bubble problem in a specific norm.

The aim of this paper is to establish two fundamental measure-metric properties of particular random geometric graphs. We consider $\varepsilon$-neighborhood graphs whose vertices are drawn independently and identically distributed from a common distribution defined on a regular submanifold of $\mathbb{R}^K$. We show t…

We consider the double twist link $J(2m+1, 2n+1)$ which is the two-bridge link corresponding to the continued fraction $(2m+1)-1/(2n+1)$. It is known that $J(2m+1, 2n+1)$ has reducible nonabelian $SL_2(\mathbb{C})$-character variety if and only if $m=n$. In this paper we give a formula for the volume of hyperbolic cone…

This paper investigates the relationship between the topology of hyperbolizable 3-manifolds M with incompressible boundary and the volume of hyperbolic convex cores homotopy equivalent to M. Specifically, it proves a conjecture of Bonahon stating that the volume of a convex core is at least half the simplicial volume o…

We formalize and verify double auctions for multiple-quantity trades.

We study optimal double helices with straight axes (or the fattest tubes around them) computationally using three kinds of functionals; ideal ones using ropelength, best volume packing ones, and energy minimizers using two one-parameter families of interaction energies between two strands of types $r^{-α}$ and $\frac1r…

We prove a so called $κ$ non-inflating property for Ricci flow, which provides an upper bound for volume ratio of geodesic balls over Euclidean ones, under an upper bound for scalar curvature. This result can be regarded as the opposite statement of Perelman's $κ$ non-collapsing property for Ricci flow. These two resul…

Regulated Bitcoin futures led to higher volatility and trading volume.

In this paper, we prove that if a metric measure space satisfies the volume doubling condition and the Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequality with same exponent n(n>1), then it has exactly n-dimensional volume growth. As application, we obtain geometric and topological properties of Alexandrov space, Riemannian manifold …

We give multiplicity results for the solutions of a nonlinear elliptic equation, with an asymmetric double well potential of Van der Waals-Allen--Cahn--Hilliard type, satisfying a linear volume constraint, on a bounded Lipschitz domain $Ω\subset\mathds R^N$. The number of solutions is estimated in terms of topological …

Hexagonal norm double bubble problem solved with minimal configurations.

Let $Σ$ be a complete Riemannian manifold with the volume doubling property and the uniform Neumann-Poincar$\mathrm{\acute{e}}$ inequality. We show that any positive minimal graphic function on $Σ$ is a constant.

It is shown that $m$ disjoint sets with fixed Gaussian volumes that partition $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ with minimum Gaussian surface area must be $(m-1)$-dimensional. This follows from a second variation argument using infinitesimal translations. The special case $m=3$ proves the Double Bubble problem for the Gaussian measure,…

In this paper, we introduce a novel, non-recursive, maximal matching algorithm for double auctions, which aims to maximize the amount of commodities to be traded. It differs from the usual equilibrium matching, which clears a market at the equilibrium price. We compare the two algorithms through experimental analyses, …

The study characterizes slopes for hyperbolic knots and Whitehead doubles.

An important conjecture in knot theory relates the large-$N$, double scaling limit of the colored Jones polynomial $J_{K,N}(q)$ of a knot $K$ to the hyperbolic volume of the knot complement, $\text{Vol}(K)$. A less studied question is whether $\text{Vol}(K)$ can be recovered directly from the original Jones polynomial …

We prove a weighted Sobolev inequality and a Hardy inequality on manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature satisfying an inverse doubling volume condition. It enables us to obtain rigidity results for Ricci flat manifolds, generalizing earlier work of Bando, Kasue and Nakajima.

In the first part of the paper we discuss the current status of the application of the gluing methodology to doubling and desingularization constructions for minimal surfaces in Riemannian three-manifolds. In particular a doubling construction for equatorial spheres in $S^3(1)$ is announced. Aspects of the current unde…

The purpose of this work is to study some monotone functionals of the heat kernel on a complete Riemannian manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature. In particular, we show that on these manifolds, the gradient estimate of Li and Yau, the gradient estimate of Ni, the monotonicity of the Perelman's entropy and the volum…

Let $\mathbb{M}$ be a smooth connected manifold endowed with a smooth measure $μ$ and a smooth locally subelliptic diffusion operator $L$ satisfying $L1=0$, and which is symmetric with respect to $μ$. We show that if $L$ satisfies, with a non negative curvature parameter, the generalized curvature inequality introduced…

We show that any star-shaped convex hypersurface with constant Weingarten curvature in the deSitter-Schwarzschild manifold is a sphere of symmetry. Moreover, we study an isoperimetric problem for bounded domains in the doubled Schwarzschild manifold. We prove the existence of an isoperimetric surface for any value of t…

We relate the Gromov norm on homology classes to the harmonic norm on the dual cohomology and obtain double sided bounds in terms of the volume and other geometric quantities of the underlying manifold. Along the way, we provide comparisons to other related norms and quantities as well.
