New method improves missing mass concentration bounds.

Researchers compute limits of Kähler-Einstein forms on degenerating manifolds.

We study the effect of two types of degeneration of the Riemannian metric on the first eigenvalue of the Laplace operator on surfaces. In both cases we prove that the first eigenvalue of the round sphere is an optimal asymptotic upper bound. The first type of degeneration is concentration of the density to a point with…

Minimal submanifolds are found as energy concentration sets in variational problems.

We are concerned with obtaining novel concentration inequalities for the missing mass, i.e. the total probability mass of the outcomes not observed in the sample. We not only derive - for the first time - distribution-free Bernstein-like deviation bounds with sublinear exponents in deviation size for missing mass, but …

The paper shows how to create Schwarzschild initial data with degenerate apparent horizons.

Novel concentration inequalities are obtained for the missing mass, i.e. the total probability mass of the outcomes not observed in the sample. We derive distribution-free deviation bounds with sublinear exponents in deviation size for missing mass and improve the results of Berend and Kontorovich (2013) and Yari Saeed…

The study uses heat flow to analyze properties of Laplace eigenfunctions on manifolds and domains.

Alternative proof for static black hole uniqueness with nonpositive mass.

We prove that the $TT$-gauge-fixed linearised Einstein operator is non-degenerate for Riemannian Kottler ("Schwarzschild-anti de Sitter") metrics with dimension- and topology-dependent ranges of mass parameter. We provide evidence that this remains true for all such metrics except the spherical ones with a critical mas…

Study on Poncelet polygons' centers and circumcenters in various geometries.

In this paper, we are concerned with obtaining distribution-free concentration inequalities for mixture of independent Bernoulli variables that incorporate a notion of variance. Missing mass is the total probability mass associated to the outcomes that have not been seen in a given sample which is an important quantity…

We present a general sufficient condition for the formation of black holes due to concentration of angular momentum. This is expressed in the form of a universal inequality, relating the size and angular momentum of bodies, and is proven in the context of axisymmetric initial data sets for the Einstein equations which …

Topological constraints improve neural network generalization.

Given a domain $Ω$ of $\mathbb{R}^{m+1}$ and a $k$-dimensional non-degenerate minimal submanifold $K$ of $\pa Ω$ with $1\le k\le m-1$, we prove the existence of a family of embedded constant mean curvature hypersurfaces which as their mean curvature tends to infinity concentrate along $K$ and intersecting $\partial Ω$ …

Given a sphere with Bartnik data close to that of a round sphere in Euclidean 3-space, we compute its Bartnik-Bray outer mass to first order in the data's deviation from the standard sphere. The Hawking mass gives a well-known lower bound, and an upper bound is obtained by estimating the mass of a static vacuum extensi…

In this paper we characterize the intrinsic geometry of apparent horizons (outermost marginally outer trapped surfaces) in asymptotically flat spacetimes; that is, the Riemannian metrics on the two sphere which can arise. Furthermore we determine the minimal ADM mass of a spacetime containing such an apparent horizon. …

Study on hemisphere threshold for Escobar functional on Riemannian manifolds, revealing mass and boundary invariant behaviors.

We prove the existence and uniqueness of constant mean curvature foliations for initial data sets which are asymptotically flat satisfying the Regge-Teitelboim condition near infinity. It is known that the (Hamiltonian) center of mass is well-defined for manifolds satisfying this condition. We also show that the foliat…

We explore geometric aspects of bubble convergence for harmonic maps. More precisely, we show that the formation of bubbles is characterised by the local excess of curvature on the target manifold. We give a universal estimate for curvature concentration masses at each bubble point and show that there is no curvature l…

We prove a general inequality for mixed Hessian measures by global arguments. Our method also yields a simplification for the case of complex Monge-Ampère equation. Exploiting this and using Kołodziej's mass concentration technique we also prove the uniqueness of the solutions to the complex Hessian equation on compact…

The consistency of Fréchet medians is proved for probability measures in proper metric spaces. In the context of Riemannian manifolds, assuming that the probability measure has more than a half mass lying in a convex ball and verifies some concentration conditions, the positions of its Fréchet medians are estimated. It…

We prove Birkhoff-type results showing that $L^2$ solutions of the linearized Einstein equations around Riemannian Kottler ("Schwarzschild-anti de Sitter") metrics in arbitrary dimension and horizon topology, which are not controlled by "master functions" are pure gauge. Together with earlier results this implies that …

The paper explores how data geometry influences generalization in neural networks.

Let $(M,g)$ be a 3-dimensional Riemannian manifold. The goal of the paper it to show that if $P_{0}\in M$ is a non-degenerate critical point of the scalar curvature, then a neighborhood of $P_{0}$ is foliated by area-constrained Willmore spheres. Such a foliation is unique among foliations by area-constrained Willmore …

We construct embedded Willmore tori with small area constraint in Riemannian three-manifolds under some curvature condition used to prevent Möbius degeneration. The construction relies on a Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction; to this aim we establish new geometric expansions of exponentiated small symmetric Clifford tori and a…

Let $X$ be a compact Kähler manifold. Given a big cohomology class $\{θ\}$, there is a natural equivalence relation on the space of $θ$-psh functions giving rise to $\mathcal S(X,θ)$, the space of singularity types of potentials. We introduce a natural pseudometric $d_{\mathcal {S}}$ on $\mathcal S(X,θ)$ that is non-de…

In this paper we consider $\rm SU(2)$ monopoles on an asymptotically conical, oriented, Riemannian $3$-manifold with one end. The connected components of the moduli space of monopoles in this setting are labeled by an integer called the charge. We analyse the limiting behavior of sequences of monopoles with fixed charg…

We examine the theory of metric currents of Ambrosio and Kirchheim in the setting of spaces admitting differentiable structures in the sense of Cheeger and Keith. We prove that metric forms which vanish in the sense of Cheeger on a set must also vanish when paired with currents concentrated along that set. From this we…

Mass spectrometry (MS) is an important technique for chemical profiling which calculates for a sample a high dimensional histogram-like spectrum. A crucial step of MS data processing is the peak picking which selects peaks containing information about molecules with high concentrations which are of interest in an MS in…

We propose new algorithms for topic modeling when the number of topics is unknown. Our approach relies on an analysis of the concentration of mass and angular geometry of the topic simplex, a convex polytope constructed by taking the convex hull of vertices representing the latent topics. Our algorithms are shown in pr…
