In addition we describe the combination rules for smectic point defects in two and three dimensions, showing how the broken translational symmet…

We show that the asymptotic dimension of a geodesic space that is homeomorphic to a subset in the plane is at most three. In particular, the asymptotic dimension of the plane and any planar graph is at most three.

We prove the existence of a geometric characteristic submanifold for non-positively curved manifolds of any dimension greater than or equal to three. In dimension three, our result is a geometric version of the topological characteristic submanifold theorem due to Jaco, Shalen and Johannson.

The main contribution of our paper is to give a partial classification of the quasi-exactly solvable Lie algebras of first order differential operators in three variables, and to show how this can be applied to the construction of new quasi-exactly solvable Schrödinger operators in three dimensions.

In this short note we prove that, in dimension three, flat metrics are the only complete metrics with non-negative scalar curvature which are critical for the $σ_{2}$-curvature functional.

Using an analogue of Myers' theorem for minimal surfaces and three dimensional topology, we prove the diameter sphere theorem for Ricci curvature in dimension three and a corresponding eigenvalue pinching theorem. This settles these two open problems for closed 3 manifolds with positive Ricci curvature since they are b…

In this paper, we introduce a framework of $(α,β)$-flows on triangulated manifolds with two and three dimensions, which unifies several discrete curvature flows previously defined in the literature.

Characterizes chains in 3D CR and para-CR structures.

$\mathcal{I}$-non-degenerate spaces are spacetimes that can be characterized uniquely by their scalar curvature invariants. The ultimate goal of the current work is to construct a basis for the scalar polynomial curvature invariants in three dimensional Lorentzian spacetimes. In particular, we seek a minimal set of alg…

In a previous paper, we proved a number of optimal rigidity results for Riemannian manifolds of dimension greater than four whose curvature satisfy an integral pinching. In this article, we use the same integral Bochner technique to extend the results in dimension three. Then, by using the classification of closed thre…

Paper proves existence of solutions for complex surface diffusion equation.

We prove a Goldberg-Sachs theorem in dimension three. To be precise, given a three-dimensional Lorentzian manifold satisfying the topological massive gravity equations, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions on the tracefree Ricci tensor for the existence of a null line distribution whose orthogonal complement …

Extremal length is a conformal invariant that transfers naturally to the discrete setting, giving square tilings as a natural combinatorial analog of conformal mappings. Recent work by S. Hersonsky has explored generalizing these ideas to three-dimensional cube tilings. The connections between discrete extremal length …

We prove that a sequence of solutions of the Seiberg-Witten equation with multiple spinors in dimension three can degenerate only by converging (after rescaling) to a Fueter section of a bundle of moduli spaces of ASD instantons.

We prove a modified version of Turbiner's conjecture in three dimensions and we give a counter-example to the original conjecture. The Lie algebraic Schrödinger operators corresponding to flat metrics of a certain restricted type are shown to separate partially in either Cartesian, cylindrical or spherical coordinates.

This paper studies three aspects around dimension datum: (1), a generalization of the dimension datum, which we call the tau-dimension datum; (2), dimension data of disconnected subgroups; (3), compactness of isospectral sets of normal homogeneous spaces.

Develops methods for constructing exact, non-stationary solutions to Euler equations.

We describe the structure of the Ricci tensor on a locally homogeneous Lorentzian gradient Ricci soliton. In the non-steady case, we show the soliton is rigid in dimensions three and four. In the steady case, we give a complete classification in dimension three.

The approximability of a convex body is a number which measures the difficulty to approximate that body by polytopes. We prove that twice the approximability is equal to the volume entropy for a Hilbert geometry in dimension two end three and that in higher dimension it is a lower bound of the entropy. As a corollary w…

Research confirms a conjecture about complex manifolds with total Betti number three.

We formulate a notion of (uniform) asymptotic involutivity and show that it implies (unique) integrability of corank-1 continuous distributions in dimensions three or less. This generalizes and extends a classical theorem of Frobenius Theorem which says that an involutive C^1 distribution is uniquely integrable.

A complex orthogonal (geometric) structure on a complex manifold is a geometric structure locally modelled on a non-degenerate quadric. One of the first examples of such a structure on a compact manifold of dimension three was constructed by Guillot. In this paper, we show that the same manifold carries a family of uni…

A result is given to find points where a real valued function on the plane is not smooth. Provided this function is induced by a smooth mapping from three dimensions to the plane, from a function on surfaces in three dimensions. This has applications to numerical methods such as image processing.

We show that for generic Riemannian metrics on a closed spin manifold of dimension three the Dirac operator has only simple eigenvalues.

We study three-dimensional Alexandrov spaces with a lower curvature bound, focusing on extending three classical results on three-dimensional manifolds: First, we show that a closed three-dimensional Alexandrov space of positive curvature, with at least one topological singularity, must be homeomorphic to the suspensio…

We show that every volume preserving codimension one Anosov flow on a closed Riemannian manifold of dimension greater than three admits a global cross section and is therefore topologically conjugate to a suspension of a linear toral automorphism. This proves a conjecture of Verjovsky from the 1970's in the volume pres…

We use Ricci flow to obtain a local bi-Holder correspondence between Ricci limit spaces in three dimensions and smooth manifolds. This is more than a complete resolution of the three-dimensional case of the conjecture of Anderson-Cheeger-Colding-Tian, describing how Ricci limit spaces in three dimensions must be homeom…

We develop tools to study the topology and geometry of self-affine fractals in dimension three and higher. We use the self-affine structure and obtain rather detailed information about the connectedness of interior and boundary sets, and on the dimensions and intersections of boundary sets. As an application, we descri…

We provide infinitely many examples of pairs of diffeomorphic, non simply connected K\" ahler manifolds of complex dimension three with different Kodaira dimensions. Also, in any possible Kodaira dimension we find infinitely many pairs of non deformation equivalent, diffeomorphic K\" ahler threefolds.

We prove a priori interior curvature estimates for hypersurfaces of prescribing scalar curvature equations in dimension three. The method is motivated by the integral method of Warren and Yuan. The new observation here is that the "Lagrangian" submanifold constructed similarly as Harvey and Lawson has bounded mean curv…

The notion of a braid is generalized into two and three dimensions. Two-dimensional braids are described by braid monodromies or graphics called charts. In this paper we introduce the notion of curtains, and show that three-dimensional braids are described by braid monodromies or curtains.

We present some results concerning the Morse Theory of the energy function on the free loop space of the three sphere for metrics all of whose geodesics are closed. We also explain how these results relate to the Berger Conjecture in dimension three.

We show that a minimal disk satisfying the free boundary condition in a constant curvature ball of any dimension is totally geodesic. We weaken the condition to parallel mean curvature vector in which case we show that the disk lies in a three dimensional constant curvature submanifold and is totally umbilic. These res…
