New method constructs Birkhoff sections for pseudo-Anosov flows with controlled complexity.

problem Constructing Birkhoff sections for pseudo-Anosov flows with specific properties.

We present a unified method, based on convex optimization, for managing the power produced and consumed by a network of devices over time. We start with the simple setting of optimizing power flows in a static network, and then proceed to the case of optimizing dynamic power flows, i.e., power flows that change with ti…

We also derive sharp Ln1L^{n-1}-estimates for the regularity scale of the level set flow with two-convex initial data. Our proof relies on a detailed analysis…

The geometry of a ball within a Riemannian manifold is coarsely controlled if it has a lower bound on its Ricci curvature and a positive lower bound on its volume. We prove that such coarse local geometric control must persist for a definite amount of time under three-dimensional Ricci flow, and leads to local C/t deca…
