New method constructs axial vector fields and defines quasi-local spin-angular momentum.

For singular corank 1 surfaces in R3\mathbb R^3 we introduce a distinguished normal vector called the axial vector. Using this vector and the curvature parabola we define a new type of curvature called the axial curvature, which generalizes the singular curvature for frontal type singularities. We then study contact pr…

We show the existence of a Hawking vector field in a full neighborhood of a local, regular, bifurcate, non-expanding horizon embedded in a smooth Einstein-Maxwell space-time without assuming the underlying space-time is analytic. It extends one result of Friedrich, Rácz and Wald, which was limited to the interior of th…

Improved Beckner's inequality for axially symmetric functions on S^4.

In this paper are studied the simplest patterns of axial curvature lines (along which the normal curvature vector is at a vertex of the ellipse of curvature) near a critical point of a surface mapped into R4. These critical points, where the rank of the mapping drops from 2 to 1, occur isolated in generic one parameter…

We analyze quantum Yang-Mills theory on R2\mathbb{R}^2 using a novel discretization method based on an algebraic analogue of stochastic calculus. Such an analogue involves working with "Gaussian" free fields whose covariance matrix is indefinite rather than positive definite. Specifically, we work with Lie-algebra valu…

In this paper, we prove that the even solution of the mean field equation Δu=λ(1eu)Δu=λ(1-e^u) on S2S^2 must be axially symmetric when 4<λ84<λ\leq 8. In particular, zero is the only even solution for λ=6λ=6. This implies the rigidity of Hawking mass for stable constant mean curvature(CMC) sphere with even symmetry.

In this paper, we illustrated one scenario to modify the Ivanenko-Landau-Kähler equation. Since Ivanenko and Landau introduced the equation in 1928, the equation has been regarded as having a certain role as a fermion in particular in the discrete Lattice. Also, although it correctly is formulated as an alternative cla…

We discuss the existence of Killing tensors for certain (physically motivated) stationary and axially symmetric vacuum space-times.

We relate Gaussian curvature to the gyroscopic force, thus giving a mechanical interpretation of the former and a geometrical interpretation of the latter. We do so by considering the motion of a spinning disk constrained to be tangent to a curved surface. It is shown that the spin gives rise to a force on the disk whi…
