Constructs universal local deformations for curves and differential forms.

Study shows deformations of quaternionic Kähler manifolds are locally inhomogeneous.

In this paper, we study deformations of coisotropic submanifolds in a locally conformal symplectic manifold. Firstly, we derive the equation that governs $C^\infty$ deformations of coisotropic submanifolds and define the corresponding $C^\infty$-moduli space of coisotropic submanifolds modulo the Hamiltonian isotopies.…

Localized deformation of scalar curvature and mean curvature on manifolds.

In this paper we introduce the notion of deformation cohomology for singular foliations and related objects (namely integrable differential forms and Nambu structures), and study it in the local case, i.e., in the neighborhood of a point.

Extends Gromov non-squeezing to locally conformally symplectic structures.

We prove that the deformation space AH(M) of marked hyperbolic 3-manifolds homotopy equivalent to a fixed compact 3-manifold M with incompressible boundary is locally connected at minimally parabolic points. Moreover, spaces of Kleinian surface groups are locally connected at quasiconformally rigid points. Similar resu…

The study explores deformations of standard locally homogeneous spaces.

In this paper we construct compact manifolds with fixed boundary geometry which admit Riemannian metrics of unit volume with arbitrarily large Steklov spectral gap. We also study the effect of localized conformal deformations that fix the boundary geometry. For instance, we prove that it is possible to make the spectra…

We give an explicit construction of a deformation quantization of the algebra of functions on a Poisson manifolds, based on Kontsevich's local formula. The deformed algebra of functions is realized as the algebra of horizontal sections of a vector bundle with flat connection.

Study noncommutative deformations of Calabi-Yau threefolds.

We show how geodesics, Jacobi vector fields and flag curvature of a Finsler metric behave under Zermelo deformation with respect to a Killing vector field. We also show that Zermelo deformation with respect to a Killing vector field of a locally symmetric Finsler metric is also locally symmetric.

Study on deforming complex manifolds and Higgs bundles.

We will consider locally conformally balanced manifolds. We prove that a locally conformally balanced condition is not stable under a small deformation. We prove that locally conformally balanced condition is stable under any proper modification. We prove that symmetric products of the Kodaira surface can be resolve to…

Proves conjecture on deformation invariance of big fundamental groups.

The purpose of this work is to close the local deformation problem of rank two Euclidean submanifolds in codimension two by describing their moduli space of deformations. In the process, we provide an explicit simple representation of these submanifolds, a result of independent interest by its applications. We also det…

Representing 3D shape deformations by linear models in high-dimensional space has many applications in computer vision and medical imaging, such as shape-based interpolation or segmentation. Commonly, using Principal Components Analysis a low-dimensional (affine) subspace of the high-dimensional shape space is determin…

The paper discusses $q$-deformations of the Aomoto complex.

Study shows compact Sasakian manifolds are locally Heisenberg up to deformation.

We provide an infinite family of pared manifolds whose relative deformation spaces of hyperbolic structures on these manifolds are not locally connected. This is a natural extension of the recent result of Bromberg that shows the space of Kleinian punctured torus groups is not locally connected.

We prove that the deformation space $AH(M)$ of marked hyperbolic 3-manifolds homotopy equivalent to a fixed compact 3-manifold $M$ with incompressible boundary is locally connected at quasiconformally rigid points.

The paper extends curve deformation methods in Minkowski plane.

For any closed surface $S$ of genus $g \geq 2$, we show that the deformation space of marked hyperbolic 3-manifolds homotopy equivalent to $S$, $AH(S \times I)$, is not locally connected. This proves a conjecture of Bromberg who recently proved that the space of Kleinian punctured torus groups is not locally connected.…

Novel approach uses quasi-conformal geometry for OSA classification from cephalometry.

We consider the deformation of a discontinuous group acting on the Euclidean space by affine transformations. A distinguished feature here is that even a `small' deformation of a discrete subgroup may destroy proper discontinuity of its action. In order to understand the local structure of the deformation space of disc…

We consider localized deformation for initial data sets of the Einstein field equations with the dominant energy condition. Deformation results with the weak inequality need to be handled delicately. We introduce a modified constraint operator to absorb the first order change of the metric in the dominant energy condit…

Researchers derived heat kernel expansions for non-compact spaces using Witten deformation.

The paper explores moduli space of heterotic system using two deformation paths.

We construct the first examples of continuous families of isospectral Riemannian metrics that are not locally isometric on closed manifolds, more precisely, on $S^n\times T^m$, where $T^m$ is a torus of dimension $m\ge 2$ and $S^n$ is a sphere of dimension $n\ge 4$. These metrics are not locally homogeneous; in particu…

A deformation of the authors' instanton homology for webs is constructed by introducing a local system of coefficients. In the case that the web is planar, the rank of the deformed instanton homology is equal to the number of Tait colorings of the web.

Kuranishi's proof of complex deformation theory revisited

New principle for supersymmetric localization on Lie groups.

Goldilocks activation functions improve neural network performance.

The group action which defines the moduli problem for the deformation space of flat affine structures on the two-torus is the action of the affine group $\Aff(2)$ on $\bbR^2$. Since this action has non-compact stabiliser $\GL(2,\bbR)$, the underlying locally homogeneous geometry is highly non-Riemannian. In this articl…

Study deformations of compact Calabi-Yau conifolds with singularities.

We prove a Kuranishi-type theorem for deformations of complex structures on ALE Kähler surfaces. This is used to prove that for any scalar-flat Kähler ALE surface, all small deformations of complex structure also admit scalar-flat Kähler ALE metrics. A local moduli space of scalar-flat Kähler ALE metrics is then constr…

We show that infinitesimal automorphisms and infinitesimal deformations of parabolic geometries can be nicely described in terms of the twisted de-Rham sequence associated to a certain linear connection on the adjoint tractor bundle. For regular normal geometries, this description can be related to the underlying geome…

Developing deformation theory for Calabi-Yau 3-folds with boundary.

Flow deforms locally convex curves into target curves.

In this paper, we use the parametrised strict deformation quantization of C*-bundles obtained in a previous paper, and give more examples and applications of this theory. In particular, it is used here to classify H_3-twisted noncommutative torus bundles over a locally compact space. This is extended to the case of gen…

The paper constructs metrics on compact manifolds using Aubin's deformations.

In two former papers, the authors independently proved that the space of hyperbolic cone-3-manifolds with cone angles less than 2π and fixed singular locus is locally parametrized by the cone angles. In this sequel, we investigate the local shape of the deformation space when the singular locus is no longer fixed, i.e.…
