Develops a PDE approach to constructing nontrivial anisotropic surfaces.

The main goal of this paper is to develop a concept of approximate differentiability of higher order for subsets of the Euclidean space that allows to characterize higher order rectifiable sets, extending somehow well known facts for functions. We emphasize that for every subset $A$ of the Euclidean space and for eve…

The paper generalizes a theorem about rectifiability of sets.

Special Legendrian Integral Cycles in $S^5$ are the links of the tangent cones to Special Lagrangian integer multiplicity rectifiable currents in Calabi-Yau 3-folds. We show that such Special Legendrian Cycles are smooth except possibly at isolated points.

We prove that 2 dimensional Integral currents (i.e. integer multiplicity 2 dimensional rectifiable currents) which are almost complex cycles in an almost complex manifold admitting locally a compatible symplectic form are smooth surfaces aside from isolated points and therefore are J-holomorphic curves.

We prove under suitable hypotheses that convergence of integral varifolds implies convergence of associated mod 2 flat chains and subsequential convergence of associated integer-multiplicity rectifiable currents. The convergence results imply restrictions on the kinds of singularities that can occur in mean curvature f…

Study boundary behavior of limit interfaces in Riemannian manifolds without convexity assumptions.

In this paper we study integer multiplicity rectifiable currents carried by the subgradient (subdifferential) graphs of semi-convex functions on a $n$-dimensional convex domain, and show a weak continuity theorem with respect to pointwise convergence for such currents. As an application, the $k$-Hessian measures are ca…

This lecture notes are an expanded version of the course given at the ERC-School on Geometric Measure Theory and Real Analysis, held in Pisa, September 30th - October 30th 2013. The lectures aim to explain the main steps of a new proof of the partial regularity of area minimizing integer rectifiable currents in higher …

We consider $2$-dimensional integer rectifiable currents which are almost area minimizing and show that their tangent cones are everywhere unique. Our argument unifies a few uniqueness theorems of the same flavor, which are all obtained by a suitable modification of White's original theorem for area minimizing currents…

Study approximates nonlinear functionals using deep ReLU networks.

We investigate the complexity of deep neural networks (DNN) that represent piecewise linear (PWL) functions. In particular, we study the number of linear regions, i.e. pieces, that a PWL function represented by a DNN can attain, both theoretically and empirically. We present (i) tighter upper and lower bounds for the m…

We prove several results on Almgren's multiple valued functions and their links to integral currents. In particular, we give a simple proof of the fact that a Lipschitz multiple valued map naturally defines an integer rectifiable current; we derive explicit formulae for the boundary, the mass and the first variations a…

The present paper develops two concepts of pointwise differentiability of higher order for arbitrary subsets of Euclidean space defined by comparing their distance functions to those of smooth submanifolds. Results include that differentials are Borel functions, higher order rectifiability of the set of differentiabili…

We can compare the expressiveness of neural networks that use rectified linear units (ReLUs) by the number of linear regions, which reflect the number of pieces of the piecewise linear functions modeled by such networks. However, enumerating these regions is prohibitive and the known analytical bounds are identical for…

Investigates Darboux rectifying curves on smooth surfaces.

A space curve in a Euclidean 3-space $\mathbb E^3$ is called a rectifying curve if its position vector field always lies in its rectifying plane. This notion of rectifying curves was introduced by the author in [Amer. Math. Monthly {\bf 110} (2003), no. 2, 147-152]. In this present article, we introduce and study the n…

Harmonic maps to Euclidean buildings have rectifiable singular strata.

We prove (without using Federer's structure theorem) that a finite-mass flat chain over any coefficient group is rectifiable if and only if almost all of its 0-dimensional slices are rectifiable. This implies that every flat chain of finite mass and finite size is rectifiable. It also leads to a simple necessary and su…

We evalu…

Neural networks can approximate rectifiable measures with small error.

We show that C^1 hypersurfaces in the Heisenberg group are countably N-rectifiable. As a corollary, this shows that all C^1_H graphs over the xy-plane are countable N-rectifiable, showing the equivalence of this notion of rectifiability with that of Franchi, Serra Cassano and Serapioni for such surfaces.

It is well known that in compact local Lipschitz neighborhood retracts in Euclidean space flat convergence for integer rectifiable currents amounts just to weak convergence. In the present paper we extend this result to integral currents in complete metric spaces admitting a local cone type inequality. These include in…

The notion of rectifying curve in the Euclidean space is introduced by Chen as a curve whose position vector always lies in its rectifying plane spanned by the tangent and the binormal vector field t and n_2 of the curve. In this study, we have obtained some characterizations of semi-real spatial quaternionic rectifyin…

In this paper, we introduce transformations of deep rectifier networks, enabling the conversion of deep rectifier networks into shallow rectifier networks. We subsequently prove that any rectifier net of any depth can be represented by a maximum of a number of functions that can be realized by a shallow network with a …

We show that metrics that maximize the k-th Steklov eigenvalue on surfaces with boundary arise from free boundary minimal surfaces in the unit ball. We prove several properties of the volumes of these minimal submanifolds. For free boundary minimal submanifolds in the ball we show that the boundary volume is reduced up…

Let $p$ be an even positive integer and $U_p(H)$ be the Banach-Lie group of unitary operators $u$ which verify that $u-1$ belongs to the $p$-Schatten ideal $B_p(H)$. Let ${\cal O}$ be a smooth manifold on which $U_p(H)$ acts transitively and smoothly. Then one can endow ${\cal O}$ with a natural Finsler metric in terms…

The paper characterizes rectifying curves on smooth surfaces using isometries and Darboux frames.

In this paper, we introduce a new class of curves αcalled a f-rectifying curves, which its f-position vector defined by α_{f}(s)=\int f(s)T(s)ds always lie in the rectifying plane of α, where f is an integrable function and T is the speed curve of α. In particular case, when the function f=0 or constant, the class of f…

Let $U_c(H)={u: u is unitary and u-1 is compact}$ stand for the unitary Fredholm group. We prove the following convexity result. Denote by $d_\infty$ the rectifiable distance induced by the Finsler metric given by the operator norm in $U_c(H)$. If $u_0,u_1,u\in U_c(H)$ and the geodesic $β$ joining $u_0$ and $u_1$ in $U…
