In this article a class of closed convex sets in the Euclidean $n$-space which are the convex hull of their profiles is described. Thus a generalization of Krein-Milman theorem\cite{Lay:1982} to a class of closed non-compact convex sets is obtained. Sufficient and necessary conditions for convexity, affinity and starsh…

Simple closed curves in ε-boundaries separate sets in the plane.

New formulas for measuring geometric properties of definable sets.

A subset of the sphere is said short if it is contained in an open hemisphere. A short closed set which is geodesically convex is called a cap. The following theorem holds: 1. The minimal number of short closed sets covering the $n$-sphere is $n+2$. 2. If $n+2$ short closed sets cover the $n$-sphere then (i) their inte…

We prove that the set of closed finite gap curves in hyperbolic 3-space $\mathbb{H}^3$ is $W^{2,2}$-dense in the Sobolev space of all closed $W^{2,2}$-curves in $\mathbb{H}^3$. We also show that the set of closed finite gap curves in any 2-dimensional space form $\mathbb{E}^2$ is $W^{2,2}$-dense in the Sobolev space of…

The n-dimensional torus is uniquely characterized by specific harmonic forms.

By an influential theorem of Boman, a function $f$ on an open set $U$ in $\mathbb R^d$ is smooth ($\mathcal C^\infty$) if and only if it is arc-smooth, i.e., $f\circ c$ is smooth for every smooth curve $c : \mathbb R \to U$. In this paper we investigate the validity of this result on closed sets. Our main focus is on s…

We prove a formula that relates the Euler-Poincaré characteristic of a closed semi-algebraic set to its Lipschitz-Killing curvatures

Study of logarithms in SVD-closed subgroups of unitary group.

We consider the quantifier-free languages, Bc and Bc0, obtained by augmenting the signature of Boolean algebras with a unary predicate representing, respectively, the property of being connected, and the property of having a connected interior. These languages are interpreted over the regular closed sets of n-dimension…

The study explores which sets of integers can be realized as the degrees of maps between manifolds.

For a closed surface $S$, its Torelli group $\mathcal{I}(S)$ is the subgroup of the mapping class group of $S$ consisting of elements acting trivially on $H_1(S;\mathbb{Z})$. When $S$ is orientable, a generating set for $\mathcal{I}(S)$ is known. In this paper, we give a normal generating set of $\mathcal{I}(N_g)$ for …

By constructing certain maps, this note completes the answer of the Question: For which closed orientable 3-manifold $N$, the set of mapping degrees $cD(M,N)$ is finite for any closed orientable 3-manifold $M$?

This article deals with the set of closed geodesics on complete finite type hyperbolic surfaces. For any non-negative integer $k$, we consider the set of closed geodesics that self-intersect at least $k$ times, and investigate those of minimal length. The main result is that, if the surface has at least one cusp, their…

We prove a triangulation theorem for semi-algebraic sets over a p-adically closed field, quite similar to its real counterpart. We derive from it several applications like the existence of flexible retractions and splitting for semi-algebraic sets.

In this article we construct closed, isospectral, non-isometric locally symmetric manifolds. We have three main results. First, we construct arbitrarily large sets of closed, isospectral, non-isometric manifolds. Second, we show the growth of size these sets of isospectral manifolds as a function of volume is super-pol…

We use a modified Bochner technique to derive an inequality relating the nodal set of eigenspinors to eigenvalues of the Dirac operator on closed surfaces. In addition, we apply this technique to solutions of similar spinorial equations.

Study shows spectral gaps limit points on surfaces.

Based on uniform CR Sobolev inequality and Moser iteration, this paper investigates the convergence of closed pseudo-Hermitian manifolds. In terms of the subelliptic inequality, the set of closed normalized pseudo-Einstein manifolds with some uniform geometric conditions is compact. Moreover, the set of closed normaliz…

We define two non-linear operations with random (not necessarily closed) sets in Banach space: the conditional core and the conditional convex hull. While the first is sublinear, the second one is superlinear (in the reverse set inclusion ordering). Furthermore, we introduce the generalised conditional expectation of r…

Let M be a compact, orientable, mean convex 3-manifold with boundary. We show that the set of all simple closed curves in the boundary of M which bound unique area minimizing disks in M is dense in the space of simple closed curves in the boundary of M which are nullhomotopic in M. We also show that the set of all simp…

This paper proposes a method to use deep neural networks as end-to-end open-set classifiers. It is based on intra-class data splitting. In open-set recognition, only samples from a limited number of known classes are available for training. During inference, an open-set classifier must reject samples from unknown class…

The paper extends properties of smooth functions to closed sets and maps.

Constructs ancient solutions to mean curvature flow with prescribed singular sets.

In this paper we consider strata of flat metrics coming from quadratic differentials (semi-translation structures) on surfaces of finite type. We provide a necessary and sufficient condition for a set of simple closed curves to be spectrally rigid over a stratum with enough complexity, extending a result of Duchin-Lein…

The paper constructs stable minimal hypersurfaces with specific singularities.

For a hyperbolic surface S of finite type we consider the set A(S) of angles between closed geodesics on S. Our main result is that there are only finitely many rational multiples of πin A(S).

Paper solves a complex equation for unbounded convex sets.

We study the problem of rigidity of closures of totally geodesic plane immersions in geometrically finite manifolds containing rank $1$ cusps. We show that the key notion of K-thick recurrence of horocycles fails generically in this setting. This property was introduced in the recent work of McMullen, Mohammadi and Oh.…

The paper is devoted to Hardy type inequalities on closed manifolds. By means of various weighted Ricci curvatures, we establish several sharp Hardy type inequalities on closed weighted Riemannian manifolds. Our results complement in several aspects those obtained recently in the noncompact Riemannian setting.

We produce infinitely many examples of Anosov flows in closed 3-manifolds where the set of periodic orbits is partitioned into two infinite subsets. In one subset every closed orbit is freely homotopic to infinitely other closed orbits of the flow. In the other subset every closed orbit is freely homotopic to only one …

The basic cohomology of a Riemannian foliation on a complete manifold with all leaves closed is the cohomology of the leaf space. In this paper we introduce various methods to compute the basic cohomology in the presence of both closed and non-closed leaves in the simply-connected case (or more generally for Killing fo…

We show that on any translation surface, if a regular point is contained in a simple closed geodesic, then it is contained in infinitely many simple closed geodesics, whose directions are dense in the unit circle. Moreover, the set of points that are not contained in any simple closed geodesic is finite. We also constr…

The paper refines and generalizes worst-case law invariant convex risk measures.

We construct a compact convex generating set $\mathcal{C}_n$ of the moduli set of closed connected projective special real manifolds of fixed dimension $n$. We show that a closed connected projective special real manifold corresponds to an inner point of $\mathcal{C}_n$ if and only if it has regular boundary behaviour.…

Study on $G_2$-structures with negative Ricci curvature on closed and noncompact manifolds.

We show that the asymptotic growth rate for the minimal cardinality of a set of simple closed curves on a closed surface of genus $g$ which fill and pairwise intersect at most $K\ge 1$ times is $2\sqrt{g}/\sqrt{K}$ as $g \to \infty$ . We then bound from below the cardinality of a filling set of systoles by $g/\log(g)$.…

A classical theorem due to Wadsley implies that, on a connected contact manifold all of whose Reeb orbits are closed, there is a common period for the Reeb orbits. In this paper we show that, for any Reeb flow on a closed connected 3-manifold, the following conditions are actually equivalent: (1) every Reeb orbit is cl…

In this paper, we show a local energy convexity of $W^{1,2}$ maps into $CAT(K)$ spaces. This energy convexity allows us to extend Colding and Minicozzi's width-sweepout construction to produce closed geodesics in any closed Alexandrov space of curvature bounded from above, which also provides a generalized version of t…

Our main point of focus is the set of closed geodesics on hyperbolic surfaces. For any fixed integer $k$, we are interested in the set of all closed geodesics with at least $k$ (but possibly more) self-intersections. Among these, we consider those of minimal length and investigate their self-intersection numbers. We pr…

We consider the fundamental group $π$ of a surface of finite type equipped with the infinite generating set consisting of all simple closed curves. We show that every nilpotent quotient of $π$ has finite diameter with respect to the word metric given by this set. This is in contrast with a result of Danny Calegari that…

We study the curve diffusion flow for closed curves immersed in the Minkowski plane $\mathcal{M}$, which is equivalent to the Euclidean plane endowed with a closed, symmetric, convex curve called an indicatrix that scales the length of a vector in $\mathcal{M}$ depending on its length. The indiactrix $\partial\mathcal{…

Researchers construct translators asymptotic to self-shrinkers, proving non-uniqueness and fattening.

Proof that convex structures on manifolds are open and closed.

Let $M$ be a closed oriented manifold of dimension $n$ and $ω$ a closed 1-form on it. We discuss the question whether there exists a Riemannian metric for which $ω$ is co-closed. For closed 1-forms with nondegenerate zeros the question was answered completely by Calabi in 1969. The goal of this paper is to give an answ…
