Study parabolic representations of knots using quandles and polynomials.

New method for analyzing elliptic and parabolic equations.

For smooth manifolds equipped with various geometric structures, we construct complexes that replace the de Rham complex in providing an alternative fine resolution of the sheaf of locally constant functions. In case that the geometric structure is that of a parabolic geometry, our complexes coincide with the Bernstein…

Defines connections on parabolic vector bundles for Lie algebroids.

New examples of extremal Kähler metrics on blow-ups of parabolic ruled surfaces are constructed. The method is based on the gluing construction of Arezzo, Pacard and Singer. This enables to endow ruled surfaces of the form $\mathbb{P}(\mathcal{O}\oplus L)$ with special parabolic structures such that the associated iter…

Study of BGG sequences on foliated manifolds with transverse parabolic geometry.

We present a stochastic numerical method for solving fully non-linear free boundary problems of parabolic type and provide a rate of convergence under reasonable conditions on the non-linearity.

Criterion found for Lie algebroid connections on parabolic bundles.

Computes deformations of parabolic structures on Riemann surfaces.

Reductive (or semisimple) algebraic groups, Lie groups and Lie algebras have a rich geometry determined by their parabolic subgroups and subalgebras, which carry the structure of a building in the sense of J. Tits. We present herein an elementary approach to the geometry of parabolic subalgebras, over an arbitrary fiel…

We provide some criteria to $p$-parabolicity of Riemannian submersions. In particular, if $N$ is $p$-parabolic and $π:M\to N$ is a Riemannian submersion with uniformly bounded volume of fibers, then $M$ is also $p$-parabolic. In the case of warped manifolds we characterize $p$-parabolicity in terms of a volume growth c…

Classifies holomorphic parabolic geometries on complex manifolds.

Defines non-parabolic curves in spatial hybrid space with applications.

We introduce a notion of admissible Hermitian metrics on parabolic bundles and define positivity properties for the same. We develop Chern-Weil theory for parabolic bundles and prove that our metric notions coincide with the already existing algebro-geometric versions of parabolic Chern classes. We also formulate a Gri…

Consider a relatively hyperbolic group G. We prove that if G is finitely presented, so are its parabolic subgroups. Moreover, a presentation of the parabolic subgroups can be found algorithmically from a presentation of G, a solution of its word problem, and generating sets of the parabolic subgroups. We also give an a…

I consider the geometry of the general class of scalar 2nd-order differential equations with parabolic symbol, including non-linear and non-evolutionary parabolic equations. After defining the appropriate $G$-structure to model parabolic equations, I apply Cartan techniques to determine local geometric invariants (quan…

We establish parabolicity and quadratic area growth for minimal surfaces-with-boundary contained in regions of R^3 which are within a sub-logarithmic factor of the exterior of a cone. Unlike previous work showing that these two properties hold for minimal surfaces-with-boundary contained between two catenoids, we do no…

New estimates for nodal and singular sets of parabolic inequalities.

$Sol_3$ is shown not to be parabolic.

Study gauge theory of real and quaternionic parabolic bundles over real curves.

The goal of this paper is to classify parametrically parabolic submanifolds in any codimension. First, we describe the ones that are ruled and show that they are the only parabolic submanifolds that admit an isometric immersion as a hypersurface. Then, we classify the nonruled ones by two different means. In fact, we p…

The aim of this paper is to construct the parabolic version of the Donaldson--Uhlenbeck compactification for the moduli space of parabolic stable bundles on an algenraic surface with parabolic structures along a divisor with normal crossing singularities. We prove the non--emptiness of the moduli space of parabolic sta…

The paper defines parabolic subgroups for complex braid groups and proves they form a lattice.

The paper solves a complex financial optimization problem using a novel mathematical technique.

We consider automorphisms of homogeneous parabolic geometries with a fixed point. Parabolic geometries carry the distinguished distributions and we study those automorphisms which enjoy natural actions on the distributions at the fixed points. We describe the sets of such automorphisms on homogeneous parabolic geometri…

Sharp Lipschitz bounds and gradient estimates for fully nonlinear parabolic equations.

We present some new ideas to derive {\em a priori} second order estiamtes for a wide class of fully nonlinear parabolic equations. Our methods, which produce new existence results for the initial-boundary value problems in $\bfR^n$, are powerful enough to work in general Riemannian manifolds.

Implicit schemes are popular methods for the integration of time dependent PDEs such as hyperbolic and parabolic PDEs. However the necessity to solve corresponding linear systems at each time step constitutes a complexity bottleneck in their application to PDEs with rough coefficients. We present a generalization of ga…

Complete complex parabolic geometries (including projective connections and conformal connections) are flat and homogeneous. This is the first global theorem on parabolic geometries.

We show that, in an Artin-Tits group of spherical type, the intersection of two parabolic subgroups is a parabolic subgroup. Moreover, we show that the set of parabolic subgroups forms a lattice with respect to inclusion. This extends to all Artin-Tits groups of spherical type a result that was previously known for bra…

Study of parabolic-preserving deformations of hyperbolic lattices.

We use Beltrami's theorem as an excuse to present some arguments from parabolic differential geometry without any of the parabolic machinery.

A notion of parabolic C-subsolutions is introduced for parabolic equations, extending the theory of C-subsolutions recently developed by B. Guan and more specifically G. Székelyhidi for elliptic equations. The resulting parabolic theory provides a convenient unified approach for the study of many geometric flows.

New equivalences found linking parabolicity, comparison principle, and capacity on Riemannian manifolds.

The paper examines how parabolic frequency behaves under Ricci flow and Ricci-harmonic flow on manifolds.

We present the linearized metrizability problem in the context of parabolic geometries and subriemannian geometry, generalizing the metrizability problem in projective geometry studied by R. Liouville in 1889. We give a general method for linearizability and a classification of all cases with irreducible defining distr…

Quotients of torus endomorphisms have parabolic orbifolds.

The paper studies frequency monotonicity for solutions of nonlinear equations under Ricci flow.

We study the parabolic complex Monge-Ampère type equations on closed Hermitian manfolds. We derive uniform $C^\infty$ {\em a priori} estimates for normalized solutions, and then prove the $C^\infty$ convergence. The result also yields a way to carry out method of continuity for elliptic Monge-Ampére type equations.

Paper generalizes Higgs bundle limits to parabolic setting.

A surface in hyperbolic space $\h^3$ invariant by a group of parabolic isometries is called a parabolic surface. In this paper we investigate parabolic surfaces of $\h^3$ that satisfy a linear Weingarten relation of the form $aκ_1+bκ_2=c$ or $aH+bK=c$, where $a,b,c\in \r$ and, as usual, $κ_i$ are the principal curvatur…

Extends parabolic study to flat hyperkähler manifolds.

The paper proves nonexistence results for certain parabolic inequalities on Riemannian manifolds.

Let $\mathbf{E}$ be a flat Lorentzian space of signature $(2, 1)$. A Margulis space-time is a noncompact complete flat Lorentzian $3$-manifold $\mathbf{E}/Γ$ with a free holonomy group $Γ$ of rank $\mathbf{g}, \mathbf{g} \geq 2$. We consider the case when $Γ$ contains a parabolic element. We obtain a characterization o…
