Unified method visualizes curvature on curves and surfaces.

Characterizes stable minimal capillary surfaces with specific angles.

In this paper we describe trigonometry on the de Sitter surface. For that a characterization of geodesics is given, leading to various types of triangles. We define lengths and angles of these. Then, transferring the concept of polar triangles from spherical geometry into the Minkowski space, we relate hyperbolic with …

The continuity method is used to deform the cone angle of a weak conical Kähler-Einstein metric with cone singularities along a smooth anti-canonical divisor on a smooth Fano manifold. This leads to an alternative proof of Donaldson's Openness Theorem on deforming cone angle \cite{Don} by combining it with the regulari…

Study proves rigidity of critical points in hydrophobic capillary systems.

A generalized hyperbolic tetrahedra is a polyhedron (possibly non-compact) with finite volume in hyperbolic space, obtained from a tetrahedron by the polar truncation at the vertices lying outside the space. In this paper it is proved that a volume formula for ordinary hyperbolic tetrahedra devised by J. Murakami and M…

Tangential families are 1-parameter families of rays emanating tangentially from smooth curves. We classify tangential family germs up to Left-Right equivalence: we prove that there are two infinite series and four sporadic simple singularities of tangential family germs (in addition to two stable singularities). We gi…

In the previous work (J. Geom. Phys. {\bf{39}} (2001) 50-61), the closed loop solitons in a plane, \it i.e., loops whose curvatures obey the modified Korteweg-de Vries equations, were investigated for the case related to algebraic curves with genera one and two. This article is a generalization of the previous article …

We study tangential families, i.e. systems of rays emanating tangentially from given curves. We classify, up to Left-Right equivalence, stable singularities of tangential family germs (under deformations among tangential families) and we study their envelopes. We discuss applications of our results to the case of tange…

Finite element method approximates scalar curvature in arbitrary dimensions.

In his paper "On the Schlafli differential equality", J. Milnor conjectured that the volume of n-dimensional hyperbolic and spherical simplices, as a function of the dihedral angles, extends continuously to the closure of the space of allowable angles (``The continuity conjecture''), and furthermore, the limit at a bou…

Study on properties of tangential hypersurfaces in product-like manifolds.

An n-dimensional submanifold X of a projective space P^N (C) is called tangentially degenerate if the rank of its Gauss mapping γ: X ---> G (n, N) satisfies 0 < rank γ< n. The authors systematically study the geometry of tangentially degenerate submanifolds of a projective space $P^N (\mathbf{C})$. By means of the foca…

Study examines tangential real hypersurfaces on Hermite-like manifolds.

A submanifold is said to be tangentially biharmonic if the bitension field of the isometric immersion that defines the submanifold has vanishing tangential component. The purpose of this paper is to prove that a surface in Euclidean $3$-space has tangentially biharmonic normal bundle if and only if it is either minimal…

We deal with irregular curves contained in smooth, closed, and compact surfaces. For curves with finite total intrinsic curvature, a weak notion of parallel transport of tangent vector fields is well-defined in the Sobolev setting. Also, the angle of the parallel transport is a function with bounded variation, and its …

The notion of Lagrangian $H$-umbilical submanifolds was introduced by B. Y. Chen in 1997, and these submanifolds have appeared in several important problems in the study of Lagrangian submanifolds from the Riemannian geometric point of view. Recently, the author introduced the notion of tangentially biharmonic submanif…

In his paper "On the Schlafli differential equality", J. Milnor conjectured that the volume of n-dimensional hyperbolic and spherical simplices, as a function of the dihedral angles, extends continuously to the closure of the space of allowable angles. A proof of this has recently been given by F. Luo (see math.GT/0412…

We construct a Legendrian version of Envelope theory. A tangential family is a 1-parameter family of rays emanating tangentially from a smooth plane curve. The Legendrian graph of the family is the union of the Legendrian lifts of the family curves in the projectivized cotangent bundle $PT^*\R^2$. We study the singular…

An $f$-structure on a manifold $M$ is an endomorphism field $φ\inΓ(M,\End(TM))$ such that $φ^3+φ=0$. Any $f$-structure $φ$ determines an almost CR structure $E_{1,0}\subset T_\C M$ given by the $+i$-eigenbundle of $φ$. Using a compatible metric $g$ and connection $\nabla$ on $M$, we construct an odd first-order differe…

Paper finds obstructions to compact Clifford-Klein forms for tangential symmetric spaces.

Derives Lagrangian for minimal surfaces, proving tangential variations vanish.

In this paper we study tangentially degeneracy of the orbits of s-representations in the sphere. We show that an orbit of an s-representation is tangentially degenerate if and only if it is through a long root, or a short root of restricted root system of type G_2. Moreover these orbits provide many new examples of tan…

The tangential map is a map on the set of smooth planar curves. It satisfies the 3D-consistency property and is closely related to some well-known integrable equations.

New conditions ensure points can be uniquely represented by combinations of variety elements.

We present a method to develop a Hodge theory for tangential cohomology of foliations by mimicing Witten's approach to ordinary Morse theory by perturbations of the Laplacian

We study invariant submanifolds of manifolds endowed with a normal or complex metric contact pair with decomposable endomorphism field $φ$. For the normal case, we prove that a $φ$-invariant submanifold tangent to a Reeb vector field and orthogonal to the other one is minimal. For a $φ$-invariant submanifold $N$ everyw…

We etablish a necessary and sufficient condition under which there exists a tangential and well graded star product, differential or not, on the dual g^* of a nilpotent Lie algebra g. We also give enlightening examples with explicit computations.

We obtain very sharp results about the lack of validity of the Poincare lemma for the tangential Cauchy Riemann equations, acting on tangential forms, tangential to a CR manifold M of general CR dimension n, and general CR codimension k. This generalizes the classical nonsolvability example of H. Lewy. We also discuss …

We give a global description of envelopes of geodesic tangents of regular curves in (not necessarily convex) Riemannian surfaces. We prove that such an envelope is the union of the curve itself, its inflectional geodesics and its tangential caustics (formed by the conjugate points to those of the initial curve along th…

In the category of metrics with conical singularities along a smooth divisor with angle in $(0, 2π)$, we show that locally defined weak solutions ($C^{1,1}-$solutions) to the Kähler-Einstein equations actually possess maximum regularity, which means the metrics are actually Hölder continuous in the singular polar coord…

We construct a tangential map from a locally symmetric space of noncompact type to its dual compact type twin. By comparing the induced map in cohomology to a map defined by Matsushima, we conclude that in the equal rank case the map has a nonzero degree.

Knowledge graph embedding, which aims to represent entities and relations as low dimensional vectors (or matrices, tensors, etc.), has been shown to be a powerful technique for predicting missing links in knowledge graphs. Existing knowledge graph embedding models mainly focus on modeling relation patterns such as symm…

Study connections on Lie groupoids and stacks using Atiyah sequences.

We study the local differential geometry of varieties $X^n\subset \Bbb C\Bbb P^{n+a}$ with degenerate secant and tangential varieties. We show that the second fundamental form of a smooth variety with degenerate tangential variety is subject to certain rank restrictions. The rank restrictions imply a slightly refined v…

The main result of the present paper is a coincidence formula for foliated manifolds. To prove this we establish Kuenneth formula, Poincare duality and intersection product in the context of tangential de Rham cohomology and homology of tangential currents. We apply the formula to get a dynamical Lefschetz formula for …

we discuss the decomposition of the zeta-determinant of the square of the Dirac operator into the contributions coming from the different parts of the manifold in the case of an invertible tangential operator.

Study on a new class of meanders with tangential intersections.

Classical Ljusternik-Schnirelmann category is upper bounded by the number of critical points of any bounded from below differentiable functions of Palais-Smale type. Here we achieve an adaptation of this result for the tangential category of foliations. We introduce a weaker type of Palais-Smale function, obtaining a s…

Generalizes Poincaré-Hopf Theorem for piecewise smooth boundaries.

Under mild assumptions on a group G, we prove that the class of complete Riemannian n-manifolds of uniformly bounded negative sectional curvatures and with the fundamental groups isomorphic to G breaks into finitely many tangential homotopy types. It follows that many aspherical manifolds do not admit complete negative…
