We extend the well-known Sacks-Uhlenbeck energy gap result (1981) for harmonic maps from closed Riemann surfaces into closed Riemannian manifolds from the case of maps with small energy (thus near a constant map), to the case of harmonic maps with high absolute energy but small energy relative to a reference harmonic m…

We use the energy gap result of pure Yang-Mills equation [Feehan P.M.N., Adv. Math. 312 (2017), 547-587, arXiv:1502.00668] to prove another energy gap result of complex Yang-Mills equations [Gagliardo M., Uhlenbeck K., J. Fixed Point Theory Appl. 11 (2012), 185-198, arXiv:1401.7366], when Riemannian manifold $X$ of dim…

Study extends Yang-Mills energy gap to Kähler surfaces.

In this note, we prove an ${L^{\frac{n}{2}}}$-energy gap result for Yang-Mills connections on a principal $G$-bundle over a compact manifold without using Lojasiewicz-Simon gradient inequality (arXiv:1502.00668).

The paper characterizes gaps in minimal foliations on tori using energy criteria.

In this sequel to [arXiv:1412.4114], we prove an $L^{d/2}$ energy gap result for Yang-Mills connections on principal $G$-bundles, $P$, over arbitrary, closed, Riemannian, smooth manifolds of dimension $d\geq 2$. We apply our version of the Lojasiewicz-Simon gradient inequality [arXiv:1409.1525, arXiv:1510.03815] to rem…

In this paper we consider approximations introduced by Sacks-Uhlenbeck of the harmonic energy for maps from $S^2$ into $S^2$. We continue the analysis in [6] about limits of $α$-harmonic maps with uniformly bounded energy. Using a recent energy identity in [7], we obtain an optimal gap theorem for the $α$-harmonic maps…

The paper proves parabolic gap theorems for Yang-Mills energy.

In 1965 Willmore conjectured that the integral of the square of the mean curvature of a torus immersed in $R^3$ is at least $2π^2$ and attains this minimal value if and only if the torus is a Möbius transform of the Clifford torus. This was recently proved by Marques and Neves. In this paper, we show for tori there is …

The study provides energy estimates for Willmore surfaces and derives a gap statement.

We extend an $L^2$ energy gap result due independently to Min-Oo and Parker (1982) for Yang-Mills connections on principal $G$-bundles, $P$, over closed, connected, four-dimensional, oriented, smooth manifolds, $X$, from the case of positive Riemannian metrics to the more general case of good Riemannian metrics, includ…

Study on self-similar solutions of supercritical Fujita equation, proving entropy and energy gap.

Consider a Yang-Mills connection over a Riemann manifold $M=M^n$, $n\ge 3$, where $M$ may be compact or complete. Then its energy must be bounded from below by some positive constant, if $M$ satisfies certain conditions, unless the connection is flat.

Graph Energy Matching improves generation quality for molecular graphs.

We describe two-dimensional potential Schrodinger and Dirac operators which are finite-gap at one energy level and have singular spectral curves. It appears that the singularities can be rather complicated. Such Dirac operators appear as the spectral curves of tori immersed into the three-space.

In this paper we prove $L^{\infty}$ type gap theorems in Yang-Mills theory for complete four-dimensional manifolds with a weighted Poincaré inequality. We apply the theorems to a broad class of complete manifolds satisfying weighted Poincaré inequalities. In particular, we obtain a gap theorem on the Euclidean space wi…

The study finds that firm membership in flagship indices and TCFD endorsement are strong predictors of a wider Disclosure-Performance Gap.

For an immersed Lagrangian submanifold, let $\check{A}$ be the Lagrangian trace-free second fundamental form. In this note we consider the equation $\nabla^*T=0$ on Lagrangian surfaces immersed in $\mathbb{C}^2$, where $T=-2\nabla^*(\check{A}\lrcornerω)$, and we prove a gap theorem for the Whitney sphere as a solution …

Investigates energy minimizers and critical points of scale-invariant tangent-point energies for knots.

We introduce the super-Toda system on Riemann surfaces and study the blow-up analysis for a sequence of solutions to the super-Toda system on a closed Riemann surface with uniformly bounded energy. In particular, we show the energy identities for the spinor parts of a blow-up sequence of solutions for which there are p…

Factorial moments are convenient tools in particle physics to characterize the multiplicity distributions when phase-space resolution ($Δ$) becomes small. They include all correlations within the system of particles and represent integral characteristics of any correlation between these particles. In this letter, we sh…

Inspired by the work of Leung-Wan, we study the mean curvature flow in hyperkähler manifolds starting from hyper-Lagrangian submanifolds, a class of middle dimensional submanifolds, which contains the class of complex Lagrangian submanifolds. For each hyper-Lagrangian submanifold, we define a new energy concept called …

We study a class of fourth-order geometric problems modelling Willmore surfaces, conformally constrained Willmore surfaces, isoperimetrically constrained Willmore surfaces, bi-harmonic surfaces in the sense of Chen, among others. We prove several local energy estimates and derive a global gap lemma.

We prove an $L^{2}$ energy gap result for Yang-Mills connections on principal $G$-bundles over compact Kähler surfaces with positive scalar curvature. We prove related results for compact simply-connected Calabi-Yau $2$-folds.

New $\varepsilon$-harmonic maps of low degree are rigid under certain energy bounds.

We generalize our previous results (Theorem 1 and Corollary 2 in arXiv:1412.4114) and Theorem 1 in arXiv:1502.00668) on the existence of an $L^2$-energy gap for Yang-Mills connections over closed four-dimensional manifolds and energies near the ground state (occupied by flat, anti-self-dual, or self-dual connections) t…

We determine bubble tree convergence for a sequence of harmonic maps, with uniform energy bounds, from a compact Riemann surface into a compact locally CAT(1) space. In particular, we demonstrate energy quantization and the no-neck property for such a sequence. In the smooth setting, Jost and Parker respectively establ…

Fossil power firms have recently profited more than renewables, but this may be a temporary phenomenon.

Proposes CDRL to improve EBM training and generation quality.

A new method combines energy-based models and entropy-regularized optimal transport.

Energy minimizing harmonic maps between manifolds are known to be smooth outside a rectifiable set of codimension $3$, called the singular set. The possibility that this set is not a manifold, but has arbitrarily many small gaps in it, is not excluded in general. Here we prove that some part of the singular set - chara…

With the advent of the Internet of Things (IoT), an increasing number of energy harvesting methods are being used to supplement or supplant battery based sensors. Energy harvesting sensors need to be configured according to the application, hardware, and environmental conditions to maximize their usefulness. As of toda…

Enhanced diffusion sampling tackles rare event sampling in biomolecular simulations.

Statistical learning theory provides bounds of the generalization gap, using in particular the Vapnik-Chervonenkis dimension and the Rademacher complexity. An alternative approach, mainly studied in the statistical physics literature, is the study of generalization in simple synthetic-data models. Here we discuss the c…

The harmonic action functional allows a natural generalisation to semi-Riemannian supergeometry, referred to as superharmonic action, which resembles the supersymmetric sigma models studied in high energy physics. We show that Killing vector fields are infinitesimal supersymmetries of the superharmonic action and prove…

An on-going debate in the energy economics and power market community has raised the question if energy-only power markets are increasingly failing due to growing feed-in shares from subsidized renewable energy sources (RES). The short answer to this is: No, they are not failing. Energy-based power markets are, however…
