New proof shows path-connectedness of actions on intervals and circles.
Study on Frechet distance properties for paths and graphs.
We prove that the moduli space of 2-convex embedded n-spheres in R^{n+1} is path-connected for every n. Our proof uses mean curvature flow with surgery and can be seen as an extrinsic analog to Marques' influential proof of the path-connectedness of the moduli space of positive scalar curvature metics on three-manifold…
In this paper we prove that the moduli space of metrics with positive scalar curvature of an orientable compact 3-manifold is path-connected. The proof uses the Ricci flow with surgery, the conformal method, and the connected sum construction of Gromov and Lawson. The work of Perelman on Hamilton's Ricci flow is fundam…
Proves new inequality linking spectral numbers of Lagrangians and their reductions.
A 3D space of hyperbolic manifolds is connected but not path-connected.
The study examines mean curvature flow and Heegaard surfaces in lens spaces.
The paper proves parabolic gap theorems for Yang-Mills energy.
Based on a novel type of Sobolev-Poincaré inequality (for generalised weakly differentiable functions on varifolds), we establish a finite upper bound of the geodesic diameter of generalised compact connected surfaces-with-boundary of arbitrary dimension in Euclidean space in terms of the mean curvatures of the surface…
Study metrics with specific spectral properties to compute Bartnik and Bartnik-Bray masses efficiently.
Let be a closed -manifold, the space of metrics on with positive scalar curvature, and the group of diffeomorphisms of . Marques proves the fundamental result that is path connected. Using this and the theorem of Cerf in differential…
For a connected locally path-connected topological space and a continuous function on it such that its Reeb graph is a finite topological graph, we show that the cycle rank of , i.e., the first Betti number , in computational geometry called \emph{number of loops}, is bounded from above by …
