The general volume of a star body, a notion that includes the usual volume, the $q$th dual volumes, and many previous types of dual mixed volumes, is introduced. A corresponding new general dual Orlicz curvature measure is defined that specializes to the $(p,q)$-dual curvature measures introduced recently by Lutwak, Ya…

We pick up the regime switching model for asset returns introduced by Rogers and Zhang.

We focus on the calculation of risk measures by Fourier methods that have successfully been applied to option pricin…

Motivated by concerns that machine learning algorithms may introduce significant bias in classification models, developing fair classifiers has become an important problem in machine learning research. One important paradigm towards this has been providing algorithms for adversarially learning fair classifiers (Zhang e…

We define the geometric complex associated to a Morse-Bott-Smale vector field, cf. [Austin-Braam, 1995], and its associated spectral sequence. We prove an extension of the Bismut-Zhang theorem to Morse-Bott-Smale functions. The proof is based on the Bismut-Zhang theorem for Morse-Smale functions, see [Bismut-Zhang, 199…

In this paper, by employ the cutoff function and the maximum principle, some Hamilton-Souplet-Zhang type gradient estimates for porous medium type equation are deduced. As a special case, an Hamilton-Souplet-Zhang type gradient estimates of the heat equation is derived which is different from the result of Souplet-Zhan…

New invariant for Riemann surfaces connects to moduli space classes.

In this paper, we consider the following general evolution equation $u_t=Δ_fu+au\log^αu+bu$ on smooth metric measure spaces $(M^n, g, e^{-f}dv)$. We give a local gradient estimate of Souplet-Zhang type for positive smooth solution of this equation provided that the Bakry-Émery curvature bounded from below. When $f$…

Around 2008 N. Kawazumi and S. Zhang introduced a new fundamental numerical invariant for compact Riemann surfaces. One way of viewing the Kawazumi-Zhang invariant is as a quotient of two natural hermitian metrics with the same first Chern form on the line bundle of holomorphic differentials. In this paper we determine…

We study the convergence of a modified Kaeher-Ricci flow defined by Zhou Zhang. We show that the flow converges to a singular metric when the limit class is degenerate. This proves a conjecture of Zhang.

We introduce Morse-type inequalities for a holomorphic circle action on a holomorphic vector bundle over a compact Kaehler manifold. Our inequalities produce bounds on the multiplicities of weights occurring in the twisted Dolbeault cohomology in terms of the data of the fixed points and of the symplectic reduction. Th…

The purpose of this paper is to study gradient estimate of Hamilton - Souplet - Zhang type for the general heat equation $u_t=Δ_V u + au\log u+bu$ on noncompact Riemannian manifolds. As its application, we show a Harnak inequality for the heat solution and a Liouville type theorem for a nonlinear elliptic equation.…

Bismut and Zhang computed the ratio of the Ray-Singer and the combinatorial torsions corresponding to non-unitary representations of the fundamental group. In this note we show that for representations which belong to a connected component containing a unitary representation the Bismut-Zhang formula follows rather easi…

New curvature for weighted Sasaki sphere found.

We prove that on Fano manifolds, the Kähler-Ricci flow produces a "most destabilising" degeneration, with respect to a new stability notion related to the H-functional. This answers questions of Chen-Sun-Wang and He. We give two applications of this result. Firstly, we give a purely algebro-geometric formula for the su…

Sharp reverse affine isoperimetric inequalities for asymmetric Wulff shapes and their polars are established, along with the characterization of all extremals. These new inequalities have as special cases previously obtained simplex inequalities by Ball, Barthe and Lutwak, Yang, and Zhang. In particular, they provide t…

In this note we obtain local derivative estimates of Shi-type for the heat equation coupled to the Ricci flow. As applications, in part combining with Kuang's work, we extend some results of Zhang and Bamler-Zhang including distance distortion estimates and a backward pseudolocality theorem for Ricci flow on compact ma…

In 1993, Bismut and Zhang establish a mod Z embedding formula of Atiyah-Patodi-Singer reduced eta invariants. In this paper, we explain the hidden mod Z term as a spectral flow and extend this embedding formula to the equivariant family case. In this case, the spectral flow is generalized to the equivariant chern chara…

In this paper, we study elliptic gradient estimates for a nonlinear $f$-heat equation, which is related to the gradient Ricci soliton and the weighted log-Sobolev constant of smooth metric measure spaces. Precisely, we obtain Hamilton's and Souplet-Zhang's gradient estimates for positive solutions to the nonlinear $f$-…

In this paper we present results on dynamic multivariate scalar risk measures, which arise in markets with transaction costs and systemic risk. Dual representations of such risk measures are presented. These are then used to obtain the main results of this paper on time consistency; namely, an equivalent recursive form…

In this paper, we consider gradient estimates for two type of nonlinear parabolic equations under the Ricci flow: one is the equation $u_t=Δu+au\log u+bu$ with $a,b$ two real constants, the other is $u_t=Δu+λu^α$ with $λ,α$ two real constants. By a suitable scaling for the above two equations, we obtain Hamilton-So…

If a hyperbolic 3-manifold M admits a reducible and a finite Dehn filling, the distance between the filling slopes is known to be 1. This has been proved recently by Boyer, Gordon and Zhang. The first example of a manifold with two such fillings was given by Boyer and Zhang. In this paper, we give examples of hyperboli…
