Extends smoothness results for submanifolds and mean curvature flows with a common boundary.

Paper studies curvature of stable surfaces meeting at a common boundary.

Let $N$ be a Riemannian manifold and consider a stationary union of three or more $C^{1,μ}$ hypersurfaces-with-boundary $M_k$ in $N$ with a common boundary $Γ$. We show that if $N$ is smooth, then $Γ$ is smooth and each $M_k$ is smooth up to $Γ$ (real analytic in the case $N$ is real analytic). Consequently we strength…

Groups with certain thickness have empty Floyd boundary.

Constructs minimal annuli with free boundary in hyperbolic 3-space.

We consider the question of how many essential Seifert Klein bottles with common boundary slope a knot in S^3 can bound, up to ambient isotopy. We prove that any hyperbolic knot in S^3 bounds at most six Seifert Klein bottles with a given boundary slope. The Seifert Klein bottles in a minimal projection of hyperbolic p…

The study describes boundaries of amalgamated products of hyperbolic groups.

Fix two parallel circles in $\mathbb{R}^3$ centered about a common axis. Among surfaces of revolution immersed in $\mathbb{R}^3$ whose boundary is given by these circles, there is one which maximizes the first Dirichlet eigenvalue. If the circles are sufficiently close together, then this surface is unique.

Geometric torsions are torsions of acyclic complexes of vector spaces which consist of differentials of geometric quantities assigned to the elements of a manifold triangulation. We use geometric torsions to construct invariants for a manifold with a triangulated boundary. These invariants can be naturally united in a …

We investigate a variational problem in the Lorentz-Minkowski space $ł^3$ whose critical points are spacelike surfaces with constant mean curvature and making constant contact angle with a given support surface along its common boundary. We show that if the support surface is a pseudosphere, then the surface is a plana…

Potential theory extended to Gromov hyperbolic spaces.

We construct Peano curves $γ: [0,\infty) \to \mathbb{R}^2$ whose "footprints" $γ([0,t])$, $t>0$, have $C^\infty$ boundaries and are tangent to a common continuous line field on the punctured plane $\mathbb{R}^2 \setminus \{γ(0)\}$. Moreover, these boundaries can be taken $C^\infty$-close to any prescribed smooth family…

We show that every smooth closed oriented four-manifold admits a decomposition into two co- dimension zero submanifolds with common boundary. Each of these submanifolds carries a structure of a symplectic manifold with pseudo-convex boundary. This imply, in particular, that every smooth closed simply-connected four-man…

The paper proves positive mass theorems for initial data sets with noncompact boundaries.

We glue two manifolds which have curvature operators at least k (in the sense of eigenvalues) along their common boundary. We show that if the sum of the second fundamental forms of the boundary is positive semidefinite, then the curvature operator of the resulting manifold is at least k up to an arbitrarily small erro…

Let M and M' be simple 3-manifolds, each with connected boundary of genus at least two. Suppose that M and M' are glued via a homeomorphism between their boundaries. Then we show that, provided the gluing homeomorphism is `sufficiently complicated', the Heegaard genus of the amalgamated manifold is completely determine…

We obtain an Einstein metric of constant negative curvature given an arbitrary boundary metric in three dimensions, and a conformally flat one given an arbitrary conformally flat boundary metric in other dimensions. In order to compute the on-shell value of the gravitational action for these solutions, we propose to in…

Suppose there are two framed links in a compact, connected 3-manifold (possibly with boundary, or non-orientable) such that the associated 3-manifolds obtained by surgery are homeomorphic (relative to their common boundary, if there is one.) How are the links related? Kirby's theorem gives the answer when the manifold …

One-Class Boundary Peeling detects outliers efficiently and robustly.

New method shows Hessian estimator from random samples converges to true Hessian on complex manifolds.

In this article we show that every closed oriented smooth 4-manifold can be decomposed into two codimension zero submanifolds (one with reversed orientation) so that both pieces are exact Kahler manifolds with strictly pseudoconvex boundaries and that induced contact structures on the common boundary are isotopic. Mean…

Modeling systemic risk with contagion effects in financial systems.

We define analogues of the graphs of free splittings, of cyclic splittings, and of maximally-cyclic splittings of $F_N$ for free products of groups, and show their hyperbolicity. Given a countable group $G$ which splits as $G=G_1\ast\dots\ast G_k\ast F$, where $F$ denotes a finitely generated free group, we identify th…

New contact structures on folded sums of contact mapping tori are tight under certain conditions.

Estimates boundaries for acceptable bilateral gamma risk in financial markets.

This work extends lamination theory to free products, describing Gromov boundaries and subgroup classification.

A Heegaard splitting of an open 3-manifold is the partition of the manifold into two non-compact handlebodies which intersect on their common boundary. This paper proves several non-compact analogues of theorems about compact Heegaard splittings. The main theorem is: if N is a compact, connected, orientable 3-manifold …

A new loss function improves classification accuracy in imbalanced datasets.

We construct invariants of four-dimensional piecewise-linear manifolds, represented as simplicial complexes, with respect to rebuildings that transform a cluster of three 4-simplices having a common two-dimensional face in a different cluster of the same type and having the same boundary. Our construction is based on t…

New groups found that are similar but not the same in terms of geometry.

For a bounded N-dimensional domain with Lipschitz boundary we extend Korn's first inequality to incompatible tensor fields. For compatible tensor fields our estimate reduces to a non-standard variant of the well known Korn's first inequality. On the other hand, for skew-symmetric tensor fields our new estimate turns to…

A new model corrects inhomogeneity in Optimal Transport with Boundary.

Hierarchically hyperbolic spaces provide a common framework for studying mapping class groups of finite type surfaces, Teichmüller space, right-angled Artin groups, and many other cubical groups. Given such a space $\mathcal X$, we build a bordificationcompatible with the hierarchically hyperbolic structure. If $\mathc…

A vector field X on a manifold M with possibly nonempty boundary is inward if it generates a unique local semiflow $Φ^X$. A compact relatively open set K in the zero set of X is a block. The Poincaré-Hopf index is generalized to an index for blocks that may meet the boundary. A block with nonzero index is essential. Le…

Consider a broken geodesics $α([0,l])$ on a compact Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ with boundary of dimension $n\geq 3$. The broken geodesics are unions of two geodesics with the property that they have a common end point. Assume that for every broken geodesic $α([0,l])$ starting at and ending to the boundary $\partial M$…

Study of contractible manifolds and their twists to determine if they are $S^4$.

Inspired by the Gromov-Hausdorff distance, we define the intrinsic flat distance between oriented $m$ dimensional Riemannian manifolds with boundary by isometrically embedding the manifolds into a common metric space, measuring the flat distance between them and taking an infimum over all isometric embeddings and all c…

New findings discourage use of boundary constraints in RL model parameter estimation.

Recall that Federer-Fleming defined the notion of flat convergence of submanifolds of Euclidean space to solve the Plateau problem. Here we prove the upper semicontinuity of Neumann eigenvalues of the submanifolds when they converge in the flat sense without losing volume. With an additional condition on the boundaries…
