The classical Three Gap Theorem asserts that for a natural number n and a real number p, there are at most three distinct distances between consecutive elements in the subset of [0,1) consisting of the reductions modulo 1 of the first n multiples of p. Regarding it as a statement about rotations of the circle, we find …

By solving the Cauchy problem for the Hodge-Laplace heat equation for dd-closed, positive (1,1)(1, 1)-forms, we prove an optimal gap theorem for Kähler manifolds with nonnegative bisectional curvature which asserts that the manifold is flat if the average of the scalar curvature over balls of radius rr centered at any f…

Stable commutator length scl_G(g) of an element g in a group G is an invariant for group elements sensitive to the geometry and dynamics of G. For any group G acting on a tree, we prove a sharp bound scl_G(g)>=1/2 for any g acting without fixed points, provided that the stabilizer of each edge is relatively torsion-fre…

We are interested in the spectrum of the Hodge-de Rham operator on a cyclic covering XX over a compact manifold MM of dimension n+1n+1. Let ΣΣ be a hypersurface in MM which does not disconnect MM and such that MΣM-Σ is a fundamental domain of the covering. If the cohomology group $H^{n/2 (Σ)$ is trivial, we can con…

In our previous article [Rad16], we investigated the asymptotic behaviour of orthogonal Bianchi class B perfect fluids close to the initial singularity and proved the Strong Cosmic Censorship conjecture in this setting. In several of the statements, the case of a stiff fluid had to be excluded. The present paper fills …

We announce results on the structure of CAT(0) groups, CAT(0) lattices and of the underlying spaces. Our statements rely notably on a general study of the full isometry groups of proper CAT(0) spaces. Classical statements about Hadamard manifolds are established for singular spaces; new arithmeticity and rigidity state…

We develop a new criterion to tell if a group GG has the maximal gap of 1/21/2 in stable commutator length (scl). For amalgamated free products G=ACBG = A \star_C B we show that every element gg in the commutator subgroup of GG which does not conjugate into AA or BB satisfies scl(g)1/2scl(g) \geq 1/2, provided that CC embed…

We prove that the Riemannian geometry of almost Kähler manifolds can be expressed in terms of the Poisson algebra of smooth functions on the manifold. Subsequently, Kähler-Poisson algebras are introduced, and it is shown that a corresponding purely algebraic theory of geometry and curvature can be developed. As an illu…

We design and conduct a simple experiment to study whether neural networks can perform several steps of approximate reasoning in a fixed dimensional latent space. The set of rewrites (i.e. transformations) that can be successfully performed on a statement represents essential semantic features of the statement. We can …

The Atiyah conjecture predicts that the L2-Betti numbers of a finite CW-complex with torsion-free fundamental group are integers. We show that the Atiyah conjecture holds (with an additional technical condition) for direct and inverse limits of directed systems of groups for which it is true. As a corollary it holds fo…

We observe that the maximal open set of constant curvature k in a Riemannian manifold with curvature bounded below or above by k has a convexity type property, which we call "two-convexity". This statement is used to prove a number of rigidity statements in comparison geometry.

In the modern era, abundant information is easily accessible from various sources, however only a few of these sources are reliable as they mostly contain unverified contents. We develop a system to validate the truthfulness of a given statement together with underlying evidence. The proposed system provides supporting…

In this paper we study the embedding of Riemannian manifolds in low codimension. The well-known result of Nash and Kuiper says that any short embedding in codimension one can be uniformly approximated by C1C^1 isometric embeddings. This statement clearly cannot be true for C2C^2 embeddings in general, due to the classi…
