The paper generalizes a mean value theorem for solutions of the ultrahyperbolic equation.
problem Establishing a mean value property for solutions of the ultrahyperbolic equation.
method Using conformal maps of the pseudo-Euclidean space of signature 2+2, the paper extends Asgeirsson's theorem to a more general class of pairs of curves.
result The mean value property is proven for non-degenerate conjugate conics, including conjugate circles, hyperbolae, parabolae, and line-empty pairs.
The fundamental group of the complement of a hyperplane arrangement plays an important role in studying the corresponding arrangements. In particular, for large families of hyperplane arrangements, this fundamental group, being isomorphic to the fundamental group of a complement of a line arrangement, has some remarkab…
In this article, we study the properties of the geodesic X-ray transform for asymptotically Euclidean or conic Riemannian metrics and show injectivity under non-trapping and no conjugate point assumptions. We also define a notion of lens data for such metrics and study the associated inverse problem.
The fundamental group of the complement of a plane curve is a very important topological invariant. In particular, it is interesting to find out whether this group is determined by the combinatorics of the curve or not, and whether it is a direct sum of free groups and a free abelian group, or it has a conjugation-free…
Geometric focusing affects dispersive estimates for Schrödinger and wave equations.
problem Long-time decay rate in dispersive estimates for Schrödinger and wave equations on non-trapping asymptotically conic manifolds and exact metric cones.
method Classifying the long-time decay rate in dispersive estimates for the Schrödinger and wave equations on non-trapping asymptotically conic manifolds and exact metric cones in terms of the intensity of geometric focusing.
result Each multiplicity of conjugate points within distance π on Y = ∂X0 leads to a |t|1/2-loss in the long-time decay order and a half-order shift in the regularity index in the dispersive estimate for the Schrödinger equation.
We obtain a unified theory of discrete minimal surfaces based on discrete holomorphic quadratic differentials via a Weierstrass representation. Our discrete holomorphic quadratic differential are invariant under Möbius transformations. They can be obtained from discrete harmonic functions in the sense of the cotangent …
The purpose of this paper is to generalize the convexity of Mabuchi's functional to the conic setting. We first established a frame to study conic cscK metrics, and then the conic Mabuchi functional was introduced in such a way that conic cscK metrics are its critical points. Finally we proved the convexity of the coni…
Supercyclides are surfaces with a characteristic conjugate parametrization consisting of two families of conics. Patches of supercyclides can be adapted to a Q-net (a discrete quadrilateral net with planar faces) such that neighboring surface patches share tangent planes along common boundary curves. We call the result…
Confocal conics form an orthogonal net. Supplementing this net with one of the following: 1) the net of Cartesian coordinate lines aligned along the principal axes of conics, 2) the net of Apollonian pencils of circles whose foci coincide with the foci of conics, 3) the net of tangents to a conic of the confocal family…
In this paper we develop a systematic deformation theory for conic constant curvature metrics on a closed surface when all cone angles are less than 2π; in particular, we define and study the Teichmüller space Tγ,kconic of conic constant curvature metrics on a surface of genus γ with k …
Based on C. Li and Y. Rubinstein's upper bisectional curvature bound estimate for the conic Kähler metric, we can construct a smoothing sequence for the conic metric with uniformly upper bisectional curvature bound. For the conic metric along a simple normal crossing divisor with triple or higher multiple points we may…
We establish a parabolic version of Tian's C2,α-estimate for conical complex Monge-Ampere equations, which includes conical Kähler-Einstein metrics. Our estimate will complete the proof of the existence of unnormalized conical Kähler-Ricci flow in arXiv:1411.7284.
We prove that the conical Kähler-Ricci flows introduced in \cite{CYW} exist for all time t∈[0,+∞). These immortal flows possess maximal regularity in the conical category. As an application, we show if the twisted first Chern class C1,β is negative or zero, the corresponding conical Kähler-Ricci flows co…
We study metrics on conic 2-spheres when no Einstein metrics exist. In particular, when the curvature of a conic metric is positive, we obtain the best curvature pinching constant. We also show that when this best pinching constant is approached, the conic 2-sphere has an explicit Gromov-Hausdorff limit. This is a gene…
Generically, topological insulators have conical points leading to Dirac-like currents.
problem Understanding the conical structure of degeneracies in topological phases of matter.
method Analyzing Hermitian matrices with three parameters to show conical points.
result Adiabatic deformations of topological insulators result in Dirac-like currents whose total conductivity equals the chiral number of conical points.
We discuss the constant σ2 problem for conic 4-spheres. Based on earlier works of Chang-Han-Yang and Han-Li-Teixeira, we are able to find a necessary condition for the existence problem. In particular, when the condition is sharp, we have the uniqueness result similar to that of Troyanov in dimension 2. It indicat…

problem Proving Whitney stratified spaces can be given a conically smooth structure.
method Introduced conically smooth structure by Ayala, Francis, and Tanaka. Proved conjecture that any Whitney stratified space admits a canonical conically smooth structure.
result Established a connection between Whitney stratified spaces and conically smooth spaces.
We compute the fundamental groups of the complements of the family of real conic-line arrangements with up to two conics which are tangent to each other at two points, with an arbitrary number of tangent lines to both conics. All the resulting groups turn out to be big.
