Every element of PU(2,1) can be decomposed into at most 4 special elliptic isometries.

We study relations between special elliptic isometries in the complex hyperbolic plane. Relations of lengths 2, 3, and 4 are fully classified. Some relative SU(2,1)-character varieties of the quadruply punctured sphere are described and applied to the study of length 5 relations.

Geodesics in positive Lagrangian spaces map to special Lagrangian cylinders.

Complex hyperbolic triangle groups are discrete when certain conditions are met.

The closed 3-manifolds of constant positive curvature were classified long ago by Seifert and Threlfall. Using well-known information about the orthogonal group O(4), we calculate their full isometry groups Isom(M), determine which elliptic 3-manifolds admit Seifert fiberings that are invariant under all isometries, an…

We prove that the elliptic Harnack inequality (on a manifold, graph, or suitably regular metric measure space) is stable under bounded perturbations, as well as rough isometries.

The paper explores conditions for constructing and extending infinitesimal isometries on special sub-Riemannian manifolds.

Estimates heights of special surfaces in warped products.

In this paper, we prove a quantitative version of the Tits alternative for negatively pinched manifolds $X$. Precisely, we prove that a nonelementary discrete isometry subgroup of $\mathrm{Isom}(X)$ generated by two non-elliptic isometries $g$, $f$ contains a free subgroup of rank $2$ generated by isometries $f^N , h$ …

Study of special Lorentzian Lie groups with 4D isometry group, finding all are non-gradient expanding Ricci solitons.

We characterise simply-connected biquotients which potentially admit metrics of holonomy G_2. We prove that there are at most three real homotopy types of rationally elliptic such manifolds---all of them being formal. In the course of this examination we classify rationally elliptic homotopy types and characterise 7-di…

We generalize work of Deligne and Gillet-Soulé on a Riemann-Roch type isometry, to the case of the trivial sheaf on cusp compactifications of Riemann surfaces $Γ\backslash\mathbb{H}$, for $Γ\subset PSL_{2}(\mathbb{R})$ a fuchsian group of the first kind, equipped with the Poincaré metric. This metric is singular at cus…

The paper defines MTCov for skewed elliptical distributions.

We extend the theory of complete minimal surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ of finite total curvature to the wider class of elliptic special Weingarten surfaces of finite total curvature; in particular, we extend the seminal works of L. Jorge and W. Meeks and R. Schoen. Specifically, we extend the Jorge-Meeks formula relating …

We explore how the spectrum of a 3-manifold's geometry can distinguish between non-isometric manifolds.

Study homeomorphisms on fine curve graph of surfaces, revealing new types of dynamics.

Let M be a compact, connected and simply-connected Riemannian manifold, and suppose that G is a compact, connected Lie group acting on M by isometries. The dimension of the space of orbits is called the cohomogeneity of the action. If the direct sum of the higher homotopy groups of M, tensored with the field of rationa…

Lattices in PSL(2,C) are omnipotent, acting on geodesics and homology.

Mathematical study of instanton corrected q-map spaces and their isometries.

We give a representation theoretical proof of Branson's classification of minimal elliptic sums of generalized gradients. The original proof uses tools of harmonic analysis, which as powerful as they are, seem to be specific for the structure groups SO(n) and Spin(n). The different approach we propose is based on the r…

Using simple facts from harmonic analysis, namely Bernstein inequality and Plansherel isometry, we prove that the pseudodifferential equation $Δ^αu+Vu=0$ improves the Sobolev regularity of solutions provided the potential $V$ is integrable with the critical power $n/2α>1$.

We discuss the connection between the smooth and metric structure on quotient spaces, prove smoothness of isometries in special cases and discuss an application to a conjecture of Molino.

Study invariants of elliptic curves in LCS manifolds, leading to new phenomena in Riemann-Finsler geometry.

Shifts are not type-preserving on surface graphs.

Let S be an orientable surface of finite type and let Mod(S) be its mapping class group. We consider actions of Mod(S) by semisimple isometries on complete CAT(0) spaces. If the genus of S is at least 3, then in any such action all Dehn twists act as elliptic isometries. The action of Mod(S) on the completion of Teichm…

Special Liouville metrics with Ricci-like conditions are determined by elliptic functions.

We study the existence of special Lagrangian submanifolds of log Calabi-Yau manifolds equipped with the complete Ricci-flat Kähler metric constructed by Tian-Yau. We prove that if $X$ is a Tian-Yau manifold, and if the compact Calabi-Yau manifold at infinty admits a single special Lagrangian, then $X$ admits infinitely…

A special group of transformations of the real line cannot act effectively on it.

In this paper, we generalize the parametric Delta-VaR methods from portfolios with elliptic distributed risk factors to portfolios with mixture of elliptically distributed ones. We treat both the Expected Shortfall and the Value-at-Risk of such portfolios. Special attention is given to the particular case of the mixtur…

Authors prove Torelli theorem for a specific type of gravitational instantons.

A guide for solving first-order elliptic boundary value problems.

The level set of an elliptic function is a doubly periodic point set in C. To obtain a wider spectrum of point sets, we consider, more generally, a Riemann surface S immersed in C^2 and its sections (``cuts'') by C. We give S a crystallographic isometry in C^2 by defining a fundamental surface element as a conformal ma…

On a Riemannian compact manifold, we give existence and multiplicity results for solutions of elliptic PDE by introducing isometry invariances. When the groups we used have finite orbits, we get multiplicity results for equations with the classical critical Sobolev exponent, for instance the Yamabe equation. When there…

Uniqueness found for elliptic equations with drift on manifolds.

In this note we prove that a complex hyperbolic triangle group of type (m,m,infinity), i.e. a group of isometries of the complex hyperbolic plane, generated by complex reflections in three complex geodesics meeting at angles Pi/m, Pi/m and 0, is not discrete if the product of the three generators is regular elliptic.

We consider sub-Riemannian spaces admitting an isometry group that is maximal in the sense that any linear isometry between the horizontal tangent spaces is realized by a global isometry. We will show that these spaces have a canonical choice of partial connection on their horizontal bundle, which is determined by isom…

Study linear differential operators on special manifolds.

In the present paper we consider a special class of spacelike surfaces in the Minkowski 4-space which are one-parameter systems of meridians of the rotational hypersurface with timelike or spacelike axis. They are called meridian surfaces of elliptic or hyperbolic type, respectively. We study these surfaces with respec…

This classification is found by analyzing the action of a normal subgroup of $B_3$ as hyperbolic isometries. This paper gives an example of an unfaithful specialization of the Burau representation on $B_4$ that is faithful when restricted to $B_3$, as well as examples of unfaithful specializations of $B_3$.

We study bifurcation from a branch of trivial solutions of semilinear elliptic Dirichlet boundary value problems on a geodesic ball, whose radius is used as the bifurcation parameter. In the proof of our main theorem we obtain in addition a special case of an index theorem due to S. Smale.

We characterize helix surfaces (constant angle surfaces) in the special linear group $\mathrm{SL}(2,\r)$. In particular, we give an explicit local description of these surfaces in terms of a suitable curve and a 1-parameter family of isometries of $\mathrm{SL}(2,\r)$.
