Study on complex line fields on almost-complex manifolds, proving existence conditions.

A Poincaré-Hopf Theorem for line fields with point singularities on orientable surfaces can be found Hopf's 1956 Lecture Notes on Differential Geometry. In 1955 Markus presented such a theorem in all dimensions, but Markus' statement only holds in even dimensions $2k \geq 4$. In 1984 Jänich presented a Poincaré-Hopf th…

The paper explores a B-field transform of complex structures on complex tori.

For every link $L$ we construct a complex algebraic plane curve that intersects $S^3$ transversally in a link $\tilde{L}$ that contains $L$ as a sublink. This construction proves that every link $L$ is the sublink of a quasipositive link that is a satellite of the Hopf link. The explicit construction of the complex pla…

Floer constructs homology from flow lines in generalized dynamical systems and combinatorial vector fields.

Holomorphic vector fields and anti-canonical divisors on complex manifolds are studied.

Braided vector fields on spatial subdomains homeomorphic to the cylinder play a crucial role in applications such as solar and plasma physics, relativistic astrophysics, fluid and vortex dynamics, elasticity, and bio-elasticity. Often the vector field's topology -- the entanglement of its field lines -- is non-trivial,…

The paper examines asymptotic lines of plane fields in 3D space.

Generic singularities of line fields have been studied for lines of principal curvature of embedded surfaces. In this paper we propose an approach to classify generic singularities of general line fields on 2D manifolds. The idea is to identify line fields as bisectors of pairs of vector fields on the manifold, with re…

Statistical field theory aids in understanding deep learning complexities.

Approximate variational inference has shown to be a powerful tool for modeling unknown complex probability distributions. Recent advances in the field allow us to learn probabilistic models of sequences that actively exploit spatial and temporal structure. We apply a Stochastic Recurrent Network (STORN) to learn robot …

The Oeljeklaus-Toma (OT-) manifolds are complex manifolds constructed by Oeljeklaus and Toma from certain number fields, and generalizing the Inoue surfaces $S_m$. On each OT-manifold we construct a holomorphic line bundle with semipositive curvature form and trivial Chern class. Using this form, we prove that the OT-m…

A line field on a manifold is a smooth map which assigns a tangent line to all but a finite number of points of the manifold. As such, it can be seen as a generalization of vector fields. They model a number of geometric and physical properties, e.g. the principal curvature directions dynamics on surfaces or the stress…

We prove that a finite type curve is an $ξ$-asymptotic line (without parabolic points) of a suitable plane field. It is also given an explicit example of a hyperbolic closed finite type $ξ$-asymptotic line. These results obtained here are generalizations, for plane fields, of the results of V. Arnold [4].

A venerable problem in combinatorics and geometry asks whether a given incidence relation may be realized by a configuration of points and lines. The classic version of this would ask for algebraic lines over some field or possibly real pseudolines: embedded circles (isotopic to $RP^1$) in the real projective plane. In…

We construct a global geometric model for complex analytic equivariant elliptic cohomology for all compact Lie groups. Cocycles are specified by functions on the space of fields of the two-dimensional sigma model with background gauge fields and $\mathcal{N} = (0, 1)$ supersymmetry. We also consider a theory of free fe…

Inverts rank m symmetric tensor fields using line integrals.

The extragradient method accelerates convergence in complex game dynamics.

We study the geometry of Engel structures, which are 2-plane fields on 4-manifolds satisfying a generic condition, that are compatible with other geometric structures. A complex Engel structure is an Engel 2-plane field on a complex surface for which the 2-planes are complex lines. We solve the equivalence problems for…

We generalise a result of Garofalo and Pauls: a horizontally minimal smooth surface embedded in the Heisenberg group is locally a (straight) ruled surface, i.e. it consists of straight lines tangent to a horizontal vector field along a smooth curve. We show additionally that any horizontally minimal surface is locally …

When trying to cast the free fermion in the framework of functorial field theory, its chiral anomaly manifests in the fact that it assigns the determinant of the Dirac operator to a top-dimensional closed spin manifold, which is not a number as expected, but an element of a complex line. In functorial field theory lang…

In the theory of so called "Covariant Quantum Mechanics" a basic role is played by Hermitian vector fields on a complex line bundle in the frameworks of Galilei and Einstein spacetimes. In fact, it has been proved that the Lie algebra of Hermitian vector fields is naturally isomorphic to a Lie algebra of "special funct…

The proper action functional of (4k+3)-dimensional U(1)-Chern-Simons theory including the instanton sectors has a well known description: it is given on the moduli space of fields by the fiber integration of the cup product square of classes in degree-(2k+2) differential cohomology. We first refine this statement from …

We construct pairs of compact Kähler-Einstein manifolds $(M_i,g_i,ω_i)$ ($i=1,2)$ of complex dimension $n$ with the following properties: The canonical line bundle $L_i=\bigwedge^n T^*M_i$ has Chern class $[ω_i/2π]$, and for each integer $k$ the tensor powers $L_1^{\otimes k}$ and $L_2^{\otimes k}$ are isospectral for …

Formula derived for a magnetic line invariant.

We define flag structures on a real three manifold M as the choice of two complex lines on the complexified tangent space at each point of M. We suppose that the plane field defined by the complex lines is a contact plane and construct an adapted connection on an appropriate principal bundle. This includes path geometr…

The paper establishes a connection between force-free fields and conformally geodesic fields.

We call two Engel structures isotopic if they are homotopic through Engel structures by a homotopy that fixes the characteristic line field. In the present paper we define an isotopy invariant of Engel structures on oriented circle bundles over closed oriented three-manifolds and apply it to give an isotopy classificat…

The paper simplifies proofs and characterizes contact structures in 3D.

New Calabi-Yau metrics with conical singularities are created near complex lines.

We describe a procedure that creates an explicit complex-valued polynomial function of three-dimensional space, whose nodal lines are the three-twist knot $5_2$. The construction generalizes a similar approach for lemniscate knots: a braid representation is engineered from finite Fourier series and then considered as t…

On a complex manifold, a co-Higgs bundle is a holomorphic vector bundle with an endomorphism twisted by the tangent bundle. The notion of generalized holomorphic bundle in Hitchin's generalized geometry coincides with that of co-Higgs bundle when the generalized complex manifold is ordinary complex. Schwarzenberger's r…

This thesis predicts the distribution of smoothed zeros of random sections on line bundles.

In this paper, we compute the derivatives of the line segment energy for a symmetric tensor field and apply them to obtain slightly more general log-concavity estimates for positive solutions of heat equations and first eigenfunctions on bounded strictly convex domains.

Study Higgs bundles on curves with punctures, extending spectral correspondence.

Many models of market dynamics make use of the idea of conservative wealth exchanges among economic agents. A few years ago an exchange model using extremal dynamics was developed and a very interesting result was obtained: a self-generated minimum wealth or poverty line. On the other hand, the wealth distribution exhi…

The paper characterizes and studies compact subsets of complex projective space with specific line intersection properties.

We show that the fundamental group of the complement of an arrangement of complex lines in the complex plane is a free group if and only if the arrangement is a union of parallel lines.

Study complex lines in symplectic geometry, generalizing previous results.

We give an explicit construction of complex maps whose nodal line have the form of lemniscate knots. We review the properties of lemniscate knots, defined as closures of braids where all strands follow the same transverse (1, $\ell$) Lissajous figure, and are therefore a subfamily of spiral knots generalising the torus…
