We prove that a gradient shrinking Ricci soliton with fourth order divergence-free Riemannian tensor is rigid.

This paper deals with the problem of describing the vector spaces of divergence-free, natural tensors on a pseudo-Riemannian manifold that are second-order; i.e., that are defined using only second derivatives of the metric. The main result establishes isomorphisms between these spaces and certain spaces of tensors (at…

These surfaces are generated by motions of seed curves that propagate through the field in a strain minimising manner, i.e., they move without stretching or shrinking, preserving the length of their arbitrary arc. In ge…

We present a graph-based semi-supervised learning (SSL) method for learning edge flows defined on a graph. Specifically, given flow measurements on a subset of edges, we want to predict the flows on the remaining edges. To this end, we develop a computational framework that imposes certain constraints on the overall fl…

We compute all 2-covariant tensors naturally constructed from a semiriemannian metric which are divergence-free and have weight greater than -2. As a consequence, it follows a characterization of the Einstein tensor as the only, up to a constant factor, 2-covariant tensor naturally constructed from a semiriemannian met…

On a compact nn-dimensional manifold MM, it is well known that a critical metric of the total scalar curvature, restricted to the space of metrics with unit volume, is Einstein.

We find an invariant characterization of planar webs of maximum rank. For 4-webs, we prove that a planar 4-web is of maximum rank three if and only if it is linearizable and its curvature vanishes. This result leads to the direct web-theoretical proof of the Poincaré's theorem: a planar 4-web of maximum rank is lineari…

Much information available on the web is copied, reused or rephrased. The phenomenon that multiple web sources pick up certain information is often called trend. A central problem in the context of web data mining is to detect those web sources that are first to publish information which will give rise to a trend. We p…

In this paper we study the linearizability problem for 3-webs on a 2-dimensional manifold. With an explicit computation based on the theory developed in the paper "On the linearizability of 3-webs" (Nonlinear analysis 47, (2001) pp. 2643-2654), we examine a 3-web whose linearizability was claimed in the same paper. We …
