We discuss the maximum modulus principle, and weak unique continuation, for CR functions on an abstract almost CR manifold M. We investigate these matters under the assumption of weak pseudoconcavity, and obtain sharp results about propagation along Sussmann leaves.
We derive sharp estimates on modulus of continuity for solutions of the heat equation on a compact Riemannian manifold with a Ricci curvature bound, in terms of initial oscillation and elapsed time. As an application, we give an easy proof of the optimal lower bound on the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian on such a ma…
We continue the study of the variation of the p--modulus of a foliation initiated by the first author. We derive the formula for the second variation which allows to study p--stable foliations. We obtain some results concerning codimension one p--stable foliations. Moreover, we derive the equation for the critica…
We establish the estimates of modulus of continuity for viscosity solutions of nonlinear evolution equations on manifolds, extending previous work of B. Andrews and J. Clutterbuck for regular solutions on manifolds \cite{AC3} and the first author's recent work for viscosity solutions in Euclidean spaces \cite{me1}.
Deep convolutional neural networks have led to breakthrough results in numerous practical machine learning tasks such as classification of images in the ImageNet data set, control-policy-learning to play Atari games or the board game Go, and image captioning. Many of these applications first perform feature extraction …
In this paper, we investigate the moduli of continuity for viscosity solutions of a wide class of nonsingular quasilinear evolution equations and also for the level set mean curvature flow, which is an example of singular degenerate equations. We prove that the modulus of continuity is a viscosity subsolution of some o…
We extend the traditional worst-case, minimax analysis of stochastic convex optimization by introducing a localized form of minimax complexity for individual functions. Our main result gives function-specific lower and upper bounds on the number of stochastic subgradient evaluations needed to optimize either the functi…
Let C be a subset of Rn (not necessarily convex), f:C→R be a function, and G:C→Rn be a uniformly continuous function, with modulus of continuity ω. We provide a necessary and sufficient condition on f, G for the existence of a convex function F∈C1,ω(Rn) …

We study non-variational degenerate elliptic equations with high order singular structures. No boundary data are imposed and singularities occur along an {\it a priori} unknown interior region. We prove that positive solutions have a universal modulus of continuity that does not depend on their infimum value. We furthe…
A scattering transform defines a signal representation which is invariant to translations and Lipschitz continuous relatively to deformations. It is implemented with a non-linear convolution network that iterates over wavelet and modulus operators. Lipschitz continuity locally linearizes deformations. Complex classes o…
The p--modulus modp(F) of a foliation F on a Riemannian manifold M is a generalization of extremal length of plane curves introduced by L. Ahlfors. We study the variation t↦modp(Ft) of the modulus. In particular, we consider product of moduli of orthogonal fo…
Recently, Andrews and Clutterbuck [AC13] gave a new proof of the optimal lower eigenvalue bound on manifolds via modulus of continuity for solutions of the heat equation. In this short note, we give an alternative proof of Theorem 2 in [AC13]. More precisely, following Ni's method ([Ni13, Section 6]) we give an ellipti…
This work is a continuation of authors' research interrupted in the year 2010. Derived are recursive relations describing for the first time all infinitesimal symmetries of special 2-flags (sometimes also misleadingly called `Goursat 2-flags'). When algorithmized to the software level, they will give an answer filling …
In the product space H^n \times R; we obtain uniform a priori C^0 horizontal length estimates, uniform a priori C^1 boundary gradient estimates, as well as uniform modulus of continuity, for a class of horizontal minimal equations. In two independent variables, we derive a certain uniform global a priori C^1 estimates …
For any link and for any modulus m we introduce an equivalence relation on the set of non-trivial m-colorings of the link (an m-coloring has values in Z/mZ). Given a diagram of the link, the equivalence class of a non-trivial m-coloring is formed by each assignment of colors to the arcs of the diagram that is obtaine…

problem Minimizing the Euler-Plateau energy with elastic modulus.
method Analyzing the energy functional and its minimizers, considering different boundary conditions and topological constraints.
result Potential minimizers are highly dependent on physical rigidity parameters, and the area of critical surfaces can be computed from boundary data.
We study the regularity of exceptional actions of groups by C1,α diffeomorphisms on the circle, i.e. ones which admit exceptional minimal sets, and whose elements have first derivatives that are continuous with concave modulus of continuity α. Let G be a finitely generated group admitting a C1,α action $ρ…
We study combinatorial modulus on boundaries of hyperbolic Coxeter groups. We give new examples of hyperbolic groups whose boundary satisfies a combinatorial version of the Loewner property, and prove Cannon's conjecture for Coxeter groups. We also establish some connections with l^p cohomology.
