Extends Euler's problem to Lorentz-Minkowski plane.

The multiplier spectral curve of a conformal torus in the 4-sphere is essentially, see arXiv:0712.2311, given by all Darboux transforms of the conformal torus. In the particular case when the conformal immersion is a Hamiltonian stationary torus in Euclidean 4-space, the left normal of the immersion is harmonic, hence …

The paper establishes a connection between minimal surfaces and a family of stationary surfaces via inversions.

The paper extends Euler's problem to hyperbolic and spherical planes.

In this paper we consider the log-aesthetic curves and their generalization which are used in CAGD. We consider those curves under similarity geometry and characterize them as stationary integrable flow on plane curves which is governed by the Burgers equation. We propose a variational formulation of those curves whose…

We study the conformally invariant variational problem for time-like curves in the $n$-dimensional Einstein universe defined by the conformal strain functional. We prove that the stationary curves are trapped into an Einsetin universe of dimension $2$, $3$ or $4$. We study the linearly-full stationary curves in a four-…

In this article we study the regularity of stationary points of the knot energies $E^α$ introduced by O'Hara in the range $α\in (2,3)$. In a first step we prove that $E^α$ is $C^1$ on the set of all regular embedded closed curves belonging to $H^{(α+1)/2,2}$ and calculate its derivative. After that we use the structure…

Integrable flows on null curves in anti-de Sitter 3-space studied.

We study the classification of area-stationary and stable $C^2$ regular surfaces in the space of the rigid motions of the Minkowski plane E(1,1), equipped with its sub-Riemannian structure. We construct examples of area-stationary surfaces that are not foliated by sub-Riemannian geodesics. We also prove that there exis…

Develops methods for constructing exact, non-stationary solutions to Euler equations.

We show that the only convex ancient solutions to curve shortening flow are the stationary lines, shrinking circles, Grim Reapers and Angenent ovals, completing the classification initiated by Daskalopoulos, Hamilton and Sesum and X.-J. Wang

The paper studies Möbius energy gradient of helix pairs and finds limiting behavior as coiling ratio increases.

A well known result of Da Rios and Levi-Civita says that a closed planar curve is elastic if and only if it is stationary under the localized induction (or smoke ring) equation, where stationary means that the evolution under the localized induction equation is by rigid motions. We prove an analogous result for surface…

We use variational arguments to introduce a notion of mean curvature for surfaces in the Heisenberg group H^1 endowed with its Carnot-Carathéodory distance. By analyzing the first variation of area, we characterize C^2 stationary surfaces for the area as those with mean curvature zero (or constant if a volume-preservin…

We study surfaces in TN that are area-stationary with respect to a neutral Kaehler metric constructed on TN from a riemannian metric g on N. We show that holomorphic curves in TN are area-stationary, while lagrangian surfaces that are area-stationary are also holomorphic and hence totally null. However, in general, are…

Constructs perturbations of a minimal surface with triple junctions.

In this article we investigate the dynamics of special solutions to the surface diffusion flow of idealised ribbons. This equation reduces to studying the curve diffusion flow for the profile curve of the ribbon. We provide: (1) a complete classification of stationary solutions; (2) qualitative results on shrinkers, tr…

The study finds instability conditions for specific surfaces in sub-Riemannian 3-space forms.

We have introduce a new vision of stochastic processes through the geometry induced by the dilation. The dilation matrices of a given processes are obtained by a composition of rotations matrices, contain the measure information in a condensed way. Particularly interesting is the fact that the obtention of dilation mat…

The Clifford torus is a torus in a three-dimensional sphere. Homogeneous tori are simple generalization of the Clifford torus which still in a three-dimensional sphere. There is a way to construct tori in a three-dimensional sphere using the Hopf fibration. In this paper, all Hamiltonian stationary Lagrangian tori whic…

Optimizes shapes of curves using Möbius energy gradients.

We construct stationary flat three-dimensional Lorentzian manifolds with singularities that are obtained from Euclidean surfaces with cone singularities and closed one-forms on these surfaces. In the application to (2+1)-gravity, these spacetimes correspond to models containing massive particles with spin. We analyse t…

We present a method for proving the existence of solutions to a class of one dimensional variational problems. The method is demonstrated by two examples of optimal interpolation problems which are motivated by engineering applications. In each case we prove that the variational problem satisfies the Palais-Smale condi…

By using Stationary-to-Randers correspondence (SRC), a characterization of light and time-convexity of the boundary of a region of a standard stationary (n+1)-spacetime is obtained, in terms of the convexity of the boundary of a domain in a Finsler n or (n+1)-space of Randers type. The latter convexity is analyzed in d…

This study improves estimation of locally stationary functional time series using NW method.

Study on MHD equilibria on curved spaces without symmetries.

The elastica is a curve in $\R^3$ that is stationary under variations of the integral of the square of the curvature. Elastica is viewed as a dynamical system that arises from the second order calculus of variations, and its quantization is discussed.

New pricing algorithm learns demand curves and optimizes prices in dynamic markets.

In this paper, we consider a class of plane curves called log-aesthetic curves and their generalization which are used in computer aided geometric design. We consider these curves in the framework of the similarity geometry and characterize them as invariant curves under the integrable flow on plane curves which is gov…

We study those Lagrangian surfaces in complex Euclidean space which are foliated by circles or by straight lines. The former, which we call cyclic, come in three types, each one being described by means of, respectively, a planar curve, a Legendrian curve of the 3-sphere or a Legendrian curve of the anti de Sitter 3-sp…

Random walks on mapping class groups identified with geodesic laminations.

Using certain solutions of the curve shortening flow, including self-shrinking and self-expanding curves or spirals, we construct and characterize many new examples of translating solitons for mean curvature flow in complex Euclidean plane. They generalize the Joyce, Lee and Tsui ones \cite{JLT} in dimension two. The s…

We introduce a new method to construct a large family of Lagrangian surfaces in complex Euclidean plane by means of two planar curves making use of their usual product as complex functions and integrating the Hermitian product of their position and tangent vectors. Among this family, we characterize minimal, constant m…

Specifically, we study Learning Vector Quantization (LVQ) systems trained from a stream of high-dimensional, clustered data.We consider standard winner-takes-all updates known as LVQ1. Statistical prope…

In some recent papers, the relations existing between the metric properties of Randers spaces and the conformal geometry of stationary Lorentzian manifolds were discovered and investigated. In this note, we focus on the equality between the index of a geodesic in a Randers space and that of its lightlike lift in the as…

Unified approach for non-stationary linear bandits with dynamic regret.

Unstable minimal surfaces are the unstable stationary points of the Dirichlet-Integral. In order to obtain unstable solutions, the method of the gradient flow together with the minimax-principle is generally used. The application of this method for minimal surfaces in the Euclidean spacce was presented in \cite{s3}. We…

The field of multiple view geometry has seen tremendous progress in reconstruction and calibration due to methods for extracting reliable point features and key developments in projective geometry. Point features, however, are not available in certain applications and result in unstructured point cloud reconstructions.…

Generating realistic asset-class scenarios from time series and curves

We prove that on a closed surface, for any $c>0$, our min-max theory for prescribing mean curvature produces a solution given by a curve of constant geodesic curvature $c$ which is almost embedded, except for finitely many points, at which the solution is a stationary junction with integer density. Moreover, each smoot…

Time dilation $\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-v^2}}$ and relative velocity $v$ are observationally indistinguishable in the special theory of relativity, a duality that carries over into the general theory under Fermi coordinates along a curve (in coordinate-independent language, in the tangent Minkowski space along the curve). For …
