Random complexes can be embedded linearly if certain conditions on parameters are met.

In New York J. Math. 17 (2011), 41--49, Li has obtained an analogue of the Jørgensen inequality in the infinite-dimensional Möbius group. We show that this inequality is strict.

We give estimates on asymptotic dimensions of products of general hyperbolic spaces with following applications to the hyperbolic groups. We give examples of strict inequality in the product theorem for the asymptotic dimension in the class of the hyperbolic groups; and examples of strict inequality in the product theo…

Study shows strict inequality for Dirac-type equation on spin manifolds, leading to existence results.

The study constructs geometrically decomposable aspherical 4-manifolds with non-zero signature and explores their properties.

We show the equivalence of the definitions of very strict $CD(K,N)$ -condition defined, on one hand, using (only) the entropy functionals, and on the other, the full displacement convexity class $\mathcal{DC}_N$. In particular, we show that assuming the convexity inequalities for the critical exponent implies it for al…

Proposes a new criterion for selecting Nash equilibria considering both utility and inequality.

Let $(M,g,\si)$ be a compact spin manifold of dimension $n \geq 2$. Let $λ_1^+(\tilde{g})$ be the smallest positive eigenvalue of the Dirac operator in the metric $\tilde{g} \in [g]$ conformal to $g$. We then define $\lamin(M,[g],\si) = \inf_{\tilde{g} \in [g]} λ_1^+(\tilde{g}) \Vol(M,\tilde{g})^{1/n} $. We show that $…

We describe a procedure for creating infinite families of knots, each having the maximum degree of their HOMFLY polynomial strictly less than twice their canonical genus. These families build upon examples first found by Stoimenow.

In this article, we obtain a strict inequality between the conjugate Hardy $H^{2}$ kernels and the Bergman kernels on planar regular regions with $n>1$ boundary components, which is a conjecture of Saitoh.

We prove that the isoperimetric inequality due to Hersch-Payne-Schiffer for the n-th nonzero Steklov eigenvalue of a bounded simply-connected planar domain is sharp for all n=1,2,... The equality is attained in the limit by a sequence of simply-connected domains degenerating to the disjoint union of n identical disks. …

We study side-lengths of triangles in path metric spaces. We prove that unless such a space X is bounded, or quasi-isometric to line or half-line, every triple of real numbers satisfying the strict triangle inequalities, is realized by the side-lengths of a triangle in X. We construct an example of a complete path metr…

We define a notion of renormalized volume of an asymptotically hyperbolic manifold. Moreover, we prove a sharp volume comparison theorem for metrics with scalar curvature at least -6. Finally, we show that the inequality is strict unless the metric is isometric to one of the Anti-deSitter-Schwarzschild metrics.

Consider a smooth $4$-manifold $X$ and a diffeomorphism $f : X \to X$. We give an obstruction in the form of an adjunction inequality for an embedded surface in $X$ to be isotopic to its image under $f$. It follows that the minimal genus of a surface representing a given homology class and which is isotopic to its imag…

Sharp constants in curl-Sobolev inequalities on spheres determined.

It is shown that there are infinitely many compact orientable smooth 4-manifolds which do not admit Einstein metrics, but nevertheless satisfy the strict Hitchin-Thorpe inequality 2 chi > 3 |tau|. The examples in question arise as non-minimal complex algebraic surfaces of general type, and the method of proof stems fro…

In this paper, we extend the work in \cite{D}\cite{ChrusLiWe}\cite{ChrusCo}\cite{Co}. We weaken the asymptotic conditions on the second fundamental form, and we also give an $L^{6}-$norm bound for the difference between general data and Extreme Kerr data or Extreme Kerr-Newman data by proving convexity of the renormali…

Consider a set represented by an inequality. An interesting phenomenon which occurs in various settings in mathematics is that the interior of this set is the subset where strict inequality holds, the boundary is the subset where equality holds, and the closure of the set is the closure of its interior. This paper disc…

The paper proves geometric inequalities and their stabilities for curves in hyperbolic space.

Strong geodesic convex function and strong monotone vector field of order $m$ on Riemannian manifolds have been established. A characterization of strong geodesic convex function of order $m$ for the continuously differentiable functions has been discussed. The relation between the solution of a new variational inequal…

Let M be a compact manifold equipped with a Riemannian metric g and a spin structure \si. We let $λ(M,[g],\si)= \inf_{\tilde{g} \in [g]} λ_1^+(\tilde{g}) Vol(M,\tilde{g})^{1/n}$ where $λ_1^+(\tilde{g})$ is the smallest positive eigenvalue of the Dirac operator D in the metric $\tilde{g}$. A previous result stated that …

We study the Morton-Franks-Williams inequality for closures of simple braids (also known as positive permutation braids). This allows to prove, in a simple way, that the set of simple braids is a orthonormal basis for the inner product of the Hecke algebra of the braid group defined by Kálmán, who first obtained this r…

We continue our previous work studying critical exponent semilinear elliptic (and subelliptic) problems which generalize the classical Yamabe problem. In [3] the focus was on metric-measure spaces with an `almost smooth' structure, with stratified spaces furnishing the key examples. The criterion for solvability there …

The paper explores numerical characteristics of compact Riemannian manifolds and proves inequalities.

In this paper, we obtain several new intrinsic and extrinsic differential sphere theorems via Ricci flow. For intrinsic case, we show that a closed simply connected $n(\ge 4)$-dimensional Riemannian manifold $M$ is diffeomorphic to $S^n$ if one of the following conditions holds pointwisely: $$ (i)\ R_0>\left(1-\frac{24…

The paper defines new geometric concepts on Riemannian manifolds and applies them to optimization problems.

We introduce the notion of a special monopole class on a four-manifold. This is used to prove restrictions on the smooth structures of Einstein manifolds. As an application we prove that there are Einstein four-manifolds which are simply connected, spin, and satisfy the strict Hitchin--Thorpe inequality, and which are …

We consider localized deformation for initial data sets of the Einstein field equations with the dominant energy condition. Deformation results with the weak inequality need to be handled delicately. We introduce a modified constraint operator to absorb the first order change of the metric in the dominant energy condit…

We describe and partially solve a natural Yamabe-type problem on smooth metric measure spaces which interpolates between the Yamabe problem and the problem of finding minimizers for Perelman's $ν$-entropy. This problem reduces in all dimensions on Euclidean space to the characterization of the minimizers of the family …

New 4-manifolds found without certain Einstein metrics, using Seiberg-Witten theory.

New bound relaxes uniform gradient norm assumptions for PAC-Bayesian bounds.

In a seminal paper published in 1980, P. C. Yang and S.-T. Yau proved an inequality bounding the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian on an orientable Riemannian surface in terms of its genus $γ$ and the area. The equality in Yang-Yau's estimate is attained for $γ=0$ by an old result of J. Hersch and it was recently shown…

In a Markovian model for a financial market, we characterize the best arbitrage with respect to the market portfolio that can be achieved using nonanticipative investment strategies, in terms of the smallest positive solution to a parabolic partial differential inequality; this is determined entirely on the basis of th…

In this paper, we propose two discontinuous dynamical systems in continuous time with guaranteed prescribed finite-time local convergence to strict local minima of a given cost function. Our approach consists of exploiting a Lyapunov-based differential inequality for differential inclusions, which leads to finite-time …

Paper investigates double coverings and torsions in homology groups.

The paper proves lower bounds for Gaussian-weighted curvature integrals of self-shrinkers.

We show that there exist smooth, simply connected, four-dimensional spin manifolds which do not admit Einstein metrics, but nonetheless satisfy the strict Hitchin-Thorpe inequality. Our construction makes use of the Bauer/Furuta cohomotopy refinement of the Seiberg-Witten invariant, in conjunction with curvature estima…

Refines Ozsváth-Szabó d-invariants for knot concurrence.

Let $(M,g)$ be a closed Riemannian spin manifold. The constant term in the expansion of the Green function for the Dirac operator at a fixed point $p\in M$ is called the mass endomorphism in $p$ associated to the metric $g$ due to an analogy to the mass in the Yamabe problem. We show that the mass endomorphism of a gen…

New algorithm tackles stochastic optimization with inequality constraints.

We show that the minimal volume entropy of closed manifolds remains unaffected when nonessential manifolds are added in a connected sum. We combine this result with the stable cohomotopy invariant of Bauer-Furuta in order to present an infinite family of four-manifolds with the following properties: 1) They have positi…
