Paper analyzes blowup of regularized Jang solutions and constant expansion surfaces.

The aim of this article is to study expansions of solutions to an extremal metric type equation on the blow-up of constant scalar curvature Kähler surfaces. This is related to finding constant scalar curvature Kähler (cscK) metrics on K-stable blow-ups of extremal Kähler surfaces

Identifies null hypersurfaces with constant surface gravity.

Let $M$ be a regular Riemann surface with a metric which has constant scalar curvature $ρ$. We give the asymptotic expansion of the sum of the square norm of the sections of the pluricanonical bundles $K_{M}^{m}$. That is, \[\sum_{i=0}^{d_{m}-1}\|S_{i}(x_{0})\|_{h_{m}}^{2} \sim m(1+\fracρ{2 m})+O(e^{-\frac{(\log m)^{2}…

Motivated by the foliation by stable spheres with constant mean curvature constructed by Huisken-Yau, Metzger proved that every initial data set can be foliated by spheres with constant expansion (CE) if the manifold is asymptotically equal to the standard [t=0]-timeslice of the Schwarzschild solution. In this paper, w…

We construct a cut-off version of nonpertubative closed Bosonic string field theory in the light-cone gauge with imaginary string coupling constant. We show that the partition function is a continuous function of the string coupling constant, and conjecture a relation between the formal power series expansion of this p…

Paper proves existence of minimal surfaces with alternating multiple zeta values.

Let $(M,g)$ be a surface with Riemannian metric and curved conic singularities. More precisely, a neighbourhood of a singularity is isometric to $(0,1)\times S^1$ with metric $g_{\text{conic}}=dr^2+f(r)^2dθ^2, r\in(0,1)$. We study the spectral geometry of $(M,g)$ using the heat trace expansion. We express the first few…

We study the asymptotic expansion of the determinant of the graph Laplacian associated to discretizations of a half-translation surface endowed with a flat unitary vector bundle. By doing so, over the discretizations, we relate the asymptotic expansion of the number of spanning trees and the sum of cycle-rooted spannin…

We consider the class of compact n-dimensional Riemannian manifolds with cylindrical boundary, Ricci curvature bounded below by a given constant and injectivity radius bounded below by a positive constant, away from the boundary. For a manifold M of this class, we introduce a notion of discretization, leading to a grap…

We classify radial scalar flat metrics with constant third coeffcient of its TYZ expansion. As a byproduct of our analysis we provide a characterization of Simanca's scalar flat metric.

In this work we consider the Taylor expansion of the exponential map of a submanifold immersed in R^n up to order three, in order to introduce the concepts of lateral and frontal deviation. We compute the directions of extreme lateral and frontal deviation for surfaces in R^3. Also we compute, by using the Taylor expan…

Study of hypersurfaces with specific expansion properties.

In this paper we derive a refined asymptotic expansion, near an isolated singularity, for conformally flat metrics with constant positive Q-curvature and positive scalar curvature. The condition that the metric has constant Q-curvature forces the conformal factor to satisfy a fourth order nonlinear partial differential…

Study on random representations of surface groups into SU(n), focusing on asymptotic expansions.

Cumulant expansion is used to derive accurate closed-form approximation for Monthly Sum Options in case of constant volatility model. Payoff of Monthly Sum Option is based on sum of $N$ caped (and probably floored) returns. It is noticed, that $1/\sqrt{N}$ can be used as a small parameter in Edgeworth expansion. First …

The notion of a symplectic expansion directly relates the topology of a surface to formal symplectic geometry. We give a method to construct a symplectic expansion by solving a recurrence formula given in terms of the Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff series.

Study on hyperbolic surfaces' volumes, proving asymptotic expansion for high genus.

Let $(M,g)$ be an asymptotically hyperbolic manifold with a smooth conformal compactification. We establish a general correspondence between semilinear elliptic equations of scalar curvature type on $\del M$ and Weingarten foliations in some neighbourhood of infinity in $M$. We focus mostly on foliations where each lea…

This study exhausts curve graphs of low-genus surfaces.

We establish multiparameter resolvent trace expansions for elliptic boundary value problems, polyhomogeneous both in the resolvent and the auxiliary parameter. The present analysis is rooted in the joint project with Matthias Lesch on multiparameter resolvent trace expansions on revolution surfaces with applications to…

We perform global and local analysis of oscillatory and damped spherically symmetric fundamental solutions for Helmholtz operators $\big({-}Δ\pmβ^2\big)$ in $d$-dimensional, $R$-radius hyperbolic ${\mathbf H}_R^d$ and hyperspherical ${\mathbf S}_R^d$ geometry, which represent Riemannian manifolds with positive constant…

Study uses renormalized area to determine metric expansion from minimal surfaces.

We give an explicit description of the full asymptotic expansion of the Schwartz kernel of the complex powers of $m$-Laplace type operators $L$ on compact Riemannian manifolds in terms of Riesz distributions. The constant term in this asymptotic expansion turns turns out to be given by the local zeta function of $L$. I…

Proposes a new model for negative interest rates that fits market data closely.

For an orientable surface $S$ of finite topological type with genus $g \geq 3$, we construct a finite set of curves whose union of iterated rigid expansions is the curve graph of $S$. The set constructed, and the method of rigid expansion, are closely related to Aramayona and Leiniger's finite rigid set, and in fact a …

For two oriented simple closed curves on a compact orientable surface with a connected boundary we introduce a simple computation of a value in the first homology group of the surface, which detects in some cases that the geometric intersection number of the curves is greater than zero when their algebraic intersection…

We quantify predictive uncertainty using the posterior predictive variance.

For an eigenfunction of the Laplacian on a hyperbolic Riemann surface, the coefficients of the Fourier expansion are described as intertwining functionals. All intertwiners are classified. A refined growth estimate for the coefficients is given and a summation formula is proved.

In the previous article we derived a detailed asymptotic expansion of the heat trace for the Laplace-Beltrami operator on functions on manifolds with conic singularities. In this article we investigate how the terms in the expansion reflect the geometry of the manifold. Since the general expansion contains a logarithmi…

We develop a general regulated volume expansion for the volume of a manifold with boundary whose measure is suitably singular along a separating hypersurface. The expansion is shown to have a regulator independent anomaly term and a renormalized volume term given by the primitive of an associated anomaly operator. Thes…

Let $φ\in C^\infty(\Complex^n)$ be a given real valued function. We assume that $\pr\ddbarφ$ is non-degenerate of constant signature $(n_-,n_+)$ on $\Complex^n$. When $q=n_-$, it is well-known that the Bergman kernel for $(0,q)$ forms with respect to the $k$-th weight $e^{-2kφ}$, $k>0$, admits a full asymptotic expansi…

Eight different refinements of trapped surfaces are proposed, of three basic types, each intended as potential stability conditions. Minimal trapped surfaces are strictly minimal with respect to the dual expansion vector. Outer trapped surfaces have positivity of a certain curvature, related to surface gravity. Increas…

Geometric quantization results for Riemann surfaces with semi-positive line bundles.

We generalize the results of Montgomery for the Bochner Laplacian on high tensor powers of a line bundle. When specialized to Riemann surfaces, this leads to the Bergman kernel expansion and geometric quantization results for semi-positive line bundles whose curvature vanishes at finite order. The proof exploits the re…

The paper studies magnetic field effects on surface eigenvalues and spectral properties.

For any strictly positive martingale $S = \exp(X)$ for which $X$ has a characteristic function, we provide an expansion for the implied volatility. This expansion is explicit in the sense that it involves no integrals, but only polynomials in the log strike. We illustrate the versatility of our expansion by computing t…
