The paper proves the existence of pseudoharmonic maps with small initial energy.

New foliations found for critical surfaces of Hawking energy, resolving discrepancies.

We extend the well-known Sacks-Uhlenbeck energy gap result (1981) for harmonic maps from closed Riemann surfaces into closed Riemannian manifolds from the case of maps with small energy (thus near a constant map), to the case of harmonic maps with high absolute energy but small energy relative to a reference harmonic m…

Study small perturbations on low energy Laplace eigenfunctions.

The problem of quasilocal energy has been extensively studied mainly in four dimensions. Here we report results regarding the quasilocal energy in spacetime dimension $n\geq 4$. After generalising three distinct quasilocal energy definitions to higher dimensions under appropriate assumptions, we evaluate their small sp…

We show that the energy density of critical points of a class of conformally invariant variational problems with small energy on the unit 2-disk B_1 lies in the local Hardy space h^1(B_1). As a corollary we obtain a new proof of the energy convexity and uniqueness result for weakly harmonic maps with small energy on B_…

A new parametric method studies Willmore flows and energy quantization.

In this paper, we prove that the Kahler Ricci flow converges to a Kahler Einstein metric when E_1 energy is small. We also prove that E_1 is bounded from below if and only if the K energy is bounded from below in the canonical class.

We study various aspects related to boundary regularity of complete properly embedded Willmore surfaces in H3, particularly those related to assumptions on boundedness or smallness of a certain weighted version of the Willmore energy. We prove, in particular, that small energy controls C1 boundary regularity. We examin…

In this note we give a simplified proof of a recent result of X.X. Chen, which together with work of G. Szekelyhidi implies that on a sufficiently small deformation of a polarized constant scalar curvature Kahler manifold the K-energy has a lower bound.

We show that on Kahler manifolds M with c_1(M)=0 the Calabi flow converges to a constant scalar curvature metric if the initial Calabi energy is sufficiently small. We prove a similar result on manifolds with c_1(M)<0 if the Kahler class is close to the canonical class.

Sharp estimate shows maps with small energy defect are close to rational maps.

In [13], a new quasi-local energy is introduced for spacetimes with a non-zero cosmological constant. In this article, we study the small sphere limit of this newly defined quasi-local energy for spacetimes with a negative cosmological constant. For such spacetimes, the anti de-Sitter space is used as the reference for…

TPBS models improve robustness to overfitting with localized Dirichlet energy regularization.

Estimates for Schrödinger operators on manifolds with bounded Ricci curvature.

We investigate the Hawking energy of small surfaces in space times without symmetry assumptions by introducing the notion of Hawking type functionals. In particular, we find that Hawking type functionals are generalized Willmore functionals which allows us to find area constrained, minimizing, immersed, haunted bubble …

In this article, we study the small sphere limit of the Wang-Yau quasi-local energy defined in [18,19]. Given a point $p$ in a spacetime $N$, we consider a canonical family of surfaces approaching $p$ along its future null cone and evaluate the limit of the Wang-Yau quasi-local energy. The evaluation relies on solving …

In this paper, we show that, under arbitrary bounded Willmore energy assumption, embedded Willmore spheres (or more generally, embedded Willmore spheres under area constraint) with small diameter in a given $3$-dimensional Riemannian manifold $(M, h)$ necessarily concentrate at a critical point of the scalar curvature …

Proves existence of solutions with concentrated energy in 2+1 spacetime.

Researchers find a surface with minimum bending energy for any genus and isoperimetric ratio.

We develop a new method for proving regularity for small energy stationary solutions of coupled gauge field equations. Our results duplicate those of Tian--Tao [7] for the pure Yang Mills equations, but our proof is simpler, and obtains bounded curvature without the use of Coulomb gauges. It relies instead on the Weitz…

Transfer learning improves chaotic dynamics predictions with less data.

We investigate the low-energy behavior of the gradient flow of the $L^2$ norm of the Riemannian curvature on four-manifolds. Specifically, we show long time existence and exponential convergence to a metric of constant sectional curvature when the initial metric has positive Yamabe constant and small initial energy.

We define and study the harmonic heat flow for almost complex structures which are compatible with a Riemannian structure $(M, g)$. This is a tensor-valued version of harmonic map heat flow. We prove that if the initial almost complex structure $J$ has small energy (depending on the norm $|\nabla J|$), then the flow ex…

We consider small-time asymptotics for diffusion processes conditioned by their initial and final positions, under the assumption that the diffusivity has a sub-Riemannian structure, not necessarily of constant rank. We show that, if the endpoints are joined by a unique path of minimal energy, and lie outside the sub-R…

In general relativity, the local gravitational energy is best characterised by the quasilocal mass. The small sphere limit of quasilocal mass provides us the most local notion of gravitational energy. In four dimensions, the limits were shown be the stress tensor in non-vacuum and the Bel-Robinson tensor in vacuum. We …

We prove a Liouville-type theorem for biharmonic maps from a complete Riemannian manifold of dimension \(n\) that has a lower bound on its Ricci curvature and positive injectivity radius into a Riemannian manifold whose sectional curvature is bounded from above. Under these geometric assumptions we show that if the $L^…

The fundamental properties of $J$-holomorphic maps depend on two inequalities: The gradient inequality gives a pointwise bound on the differential of a $J$-holomorphic map in terms of its energy. The cylinder inequality stipulates and quantifies the exponential decay of energy along cylinders of small total energy. We …

Study on hyperbolic elastic flow, proving convergence and quantifying singularities.

Kuwert and Schätzle showed in 2001 that the Willmore flow converges to a standard round sphere, if the initial energy is small. In this situation, we prove stability estimates for the barycenter and the quadratic moment of the surface. Moreover, in codimension one we obtain stability bounds for the enclosed volume and …

We show the existence of a thick thin decomposition of the domain of a pseudo holomorphic curve with boundary. The geometry of the thick part is bounded uniformly in the energy. Furthermore, in the thick part, there is a uniform bound on the differential which is exponential in the energy. The thin part consists of ann…

We develop analytical methods for nonlinear Dirac equations. Examples of such equations include Dirac-harmonic maps with curvature term and the equations describing the generalized Weierstrass representation of surfaces in three-manifolds. We provide the key analytical steps, i.e., small energy regularity and removable…

We introduce a machine learning model to predict atomization energies of a diverse set of organic molecules, based on nuclear charges and atomic positions only. The problem of solving the molecular Schrödinger equation is mapped onto a non-linear statistical regression problem of reduced complexity. Regression models a…

Finite-time blow-up in Yang-Mills flow for small energy initial connections.

We prove the first mathematical result relating the Yang-Mills measure on a compact surface and the Yang-Mills energy. We show that, at the small volume limit, the Yang-Mills measures satisfy a large deviation principle with a rate function which is expressed in a simple and natural way in terms of the Yang-Mills energ…

The article explores Helfrich flow with spontaneous curvature, finding singularities and convergence behaviors.

The paper solves a thermodynamics problem about crystal shape.

We prove a Gamma-convergence result for a family of bending energies defined on smooth surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ equipped with a director field. The energies strongly penalize the deviation of the director from the surface unit normal and control the derivatives of the director. Such type of energies for example arise…

EDCompress optimizes energy efficiency of CNN models on edge devices.

Recent studies illustrate how machine learning (ML) can be used to bypass a core challenge of molecular modeling: the tradeoff between accuracy and computational cost. Here, we assess multiple ML approaches for predicting the atomization energy of organic molecules. Our resulting models learn the difference between low…

AEGD optimizes non-convex functions with dynamic energy updates.

Let $B_1$ be the unit open disk in $\Real^2$ and $M$ be a closed Riemannian manifold. In this note, we first prove the uniqueness for weak solutions of the harmonic map heat flow in $H^1([0,T]\times B_1,M)$ whose energy is non-increasing in time, given initial data $u_0\in H^1(B_1,M)$ and boundary data $γ=u_0|_{\partia…

Paper optimizes energy trading on DA markets using RL.

We show an energy convexity along any harmonic map heat flow with small initial energy and fixed boundary data on the unit 2-disk. In particular, this gives an affirmative answer to a question raised by W. Minicozzi asking whether such harmonic map heat flow converges uniformly in time strongly in the W^{1,2}-topology,…
