Bayesian Monte-Carlo method assesses uncertainty in shear stress entropy models.

Shear stress distribution prediction in open channels is of utmost importance in hydraulic structural engineering as it directly affects the design of stable channels. In this study, at first, a series of experimental tests were conducted to assess the shear stress distribution in prismatic compound channels. The shear…

Bounding shears in ideal triangulations on hyperbolic surfaces.

New model reduces bias in cosmic shear measurements.

Thurston introduced shear deformations (cataclysms) on geodesic laminations - deformations including left and right displacements along geodesics. For hyperbolic surfaces with cusps, we consider shear deformations on disjoint unions of ideal geodesics. The length of a balanced weighted sum of ideal geodesics is defined…

The paper analyzes thin-shell limits for viscous operators on Riemannian hypersurfaces.

We obtain expressions for the shear and the vorticity tensors of perfect-fluid spacetimes, in terms of the divergence of the Weyl tensor. For such spacetimes, we prove that if the gradient of the energy density is parallel to the velocity, then either the expansion rate is zero, or the vorticity vanishes. This statemen…

Study counts orbits of mapping class group in shearing coordinates.

The twist construction is a method to build new interesting examples of geometric structures with torus symmetry from well-known ones. In fact it can be used to construct arbitrary nilmanifolds from tori. In our previous paper, we presented a generalization of the twist, a shear construction of rank one, which allowed …

We parametrize the space $\mathcal{Z}$ of Zygmund vector fields on the unit circle in terms of infinitesimal shear functions on the Farey tesselation. Then we express the Hilbert transform and the Fourier coefficients of the Zygmund vector fields in terms of the above parametrization by infinitesimal shear functions. F…

Twisted $\operatorname{SL}_2 \mathbb{C}$ local systems on surfaces of finite type appear often in geometry and physics. Most of them arise geometrically as local systems of charts for pleated hyperbolic structures. Bonahon and Thurston's "shear-bend coordinates" parameterize these local systems of charts. On a surface …

Geodesic patterns, shears, and Anosov representations of the modular group.

The twist construction is a geometric model of T-duality that includes constructions of nilmanifolds from tori. This paper shows how one-dimensional foliations on manifolds may be used in a shear construction, which in algebraic form builds certain solvable Lie groups from Abelian ones. We discuss other examples of geo…

Link between Teichmüller and anti de Sitter geometry via length functions.

We give parameterizations of homeomorphisms, quasisymmetric maps and symmetric maps of the unit circle in terms of shear coordinates for the Farey tesselation.

A new proof shows how to characterize maps using simple geometry.

Study circular foliations and shear-radius coordinates on hyperbolic cone surfaces.

Bayesian neural networks (BNN) are the probabilistic model that combines the strengths of both neural network (NN) and stochastic processes. As a result, BNN can combat overfitting and perform well in applications where data is limited. Earthquake rupture study is such a problem where data is insufficient, and scientis…

Classifies two-step solvable Lie groups with SKT structures.

We present a procedure for asymptotic gluing of hyperboloidal initial data sets that preserves the shear-free condition. Our construction is modeled on a previous gluing construction by the last three named authors, but with significant modifications that incorporate the shear-free condition. We rely on the special Höl…

Shear moves connect square-tiled surfaces in quadratic differentials.

Study quasisymmetric maps on hyperbolic plane boundaries.

Given a semi-Riemannian manifold, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for a Riemannian submanifold of arbitrary co-dimension to be umbilical along normal directions. We do that by using the so-called \emph{total shear tensor}, i.e., the trace-free part of the second fundamental form. We define the \emph{shear s…

Enhanced Teichmüller space for surfaces with decorations and enhancements.

Abstract: Poisson bracket on shear coordinates relates to Fenchel-Nielsen bracket on gluing parameters.

We show that any polyhomogeneous asymptotically hyperbolic constant-mean-curvature solution to the vacuum Einstein constraint equations can be approximated, arbitrarily closely in Hölder norms determined by the physical metric, by shear-free smoothly conformally compact vacuum initial data.

We prove that shear-free perfect fluid solutions of Einstein's field equations must be either expansion-free or non-rotating (as conjectured by Treciokas and Ellis) for all linear equations of state $p = w ρ$ except for six values of $w$.

We start by describing how ideal triangulations on a surface degenerate under pinching of a multicurve. We use this process to construct a homomorphism from the Ptolemy groupoid of a surface to that of a pinched surface which is natural with respect to the action of the mapping class group. We then apply this construct…

Geometric model of unbounded sl3 laminations with tropical coordinates.

We show that the length function of a measured geodesic lamination is convex in Thurston's shear coordinates over Teichmüller space and strictly convex for generic laminations. We give some consequences of this result in the context of Thurston's asymmetric metric on Teichmüller space.

The paper models financial order books using geometric shears and directional liquidity.

New method connects veering triangulations to dynamic pairs.

We describe the relationship between complex-valued harmonic morphisms from Minkowski 4-space} and the shear-free ray congruences of mathematical physics. Then we show how a horizontally conformal submersion on a domain of Euclidean 3-space gives the boundary values at infinity of a complex-valued harmonic morphism on …

We consider the Einstein-Maxwell-fluid constraint equations, and make use of the conformal method to construct and parametrize constant-mean-curvature hyperboloidal initial data sets that satisfy the shear-free condition. This condition is known to be necessary in order that a spacetime development admit a regular conf…

Symplectic structures derived on Teichmüller spaces with holes and bordered cusps.

Cosmic shear is a primary cosmological probe for several present and upcoming surveys investigating dark matter and dark energy, such as Euclid or WFIRST. The probe requires an extremely accurate measurement of the shapes of millions of galaxies based on imaging data. Crucially, the shear measurement must address and c…

Let $S$ be a closed oriented surface of genus at least $2$, and denote by $\mathcal{T}(S)$ its Teichm{ü}ller space. For any isotopy class of closed curves $γ$, we compute the first three derivatives of the length function $\ell\_γ:\mathcal{T}(S)\rightarrow\mathbf{R}\_+$ in the shearing coordinates associated to a maxim…
