The paper examines rigidity of thin domains under specific boundary conditions.

Proves Pólya's conjecture for thin products and Riemannian manifolds.

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…

The study uses heat flow to analyze properties of Laplace eigenfunctions on manifolds and domains.

We conjecture explicit evolution formulas for Khovanov polynomials for pretzel knots in some regions in the windings space. Our description is exhaustive for genera 1 and 2. As previously observed, evolution at T != -1 is not fully smooth: it switches abruptly at the boundaries between different regions. We reveal that…

Outlier detection has received special attention in various fields, mainly for those dealing with machine learning and artificial intelligence. As strong outliers, anomalies are divided into the point, contextual and collective outliers. The most important challenges in outlier detection include the thin boundary betwe…

We use tools from $n$-dimensional Brownian motion in conjunction with the Feynman-Kac formulation of heat diffusion to study nodal geometry on a compact Riemannian manifold $M$. On one hand we extend a theorem of Lieb and prove that any nodal domain $Ω_λ$ almost fully contains a ball of radius $\sim \frac{1}{\sqrtλ}$. …

The paper derives estimates for linear potentials and applies them to improve Hausdorff dimensions of singular sets in conformal geometry.

This paper deals with the conformal deformation of the standard metric in a domain on the sphere to a complete metric with the constant scalar curvature. The problem of description of domains allowing such deformation originates in the works of Loewner and Nirenberg, and Schoen and Yau concerned with the locally confor…

If a tangle, K, in the 3-ball has no planar, meridional, essential surfaces in its exterior then thin position for K has no thin levels.

We define a new notion of thin position for a graph in a 3-manifold which combines the ideas of thin position for manifolds first originated by Scharlemann and Thompson with the idea of thin position for knots first originated by Gabai. This thin position has the property that connect summing annuli and pairs-of-pants …

We produce embeddings of knots in thin position that admit compressible thin levels. We also find the bridge number of tangle sums where each tangle is high distance.

New proof shows most thin knots satisfy Cabling Conjecture.

We describe a natural decomposition of a normal complex surface singularity $(X,0)$ into its "thick" and "thin" parts. The former is essentially metrically conical, while the latter shrinks rapidly in thickness as it approaches the origin. The thin part is empty if and only if the singularity is metrically conical; the…

Let k be a knot in S3. In [8], H.N. Howards and J. Schultens introduced a method to construct a manifold decomposition of double branched cover of (S3, k) from a thin position of k. In this article, we will prove that if a thin position of k induces a thin decomposition of double branched cover of (S3,k) by Howards and…

Abby Thompson proved that if a link $K$ is in thin position but not in bridge position then the knot complement contains an essential meridional planar surface, and she asked whether some thin level surface must be essential. This note is to give a positive answer to this question, showing that the if a link is in thin…

Proposes efficient training method for deep thin networks.

Wu has shown that if a link or a knot $L$ in $S^3$ in thin position has thin spheres, then the thin sphere of lowest width is an essential surface in the link complement. In this paper we show that if we further assume that $L \subset S^3$ is prime, then the thin sphere of lowest width also does not have any vertical c…

We give a method for searching for thin positions of a given link.

Arithmetic spaces' thin parts are negligible, impacting Betti numbers.

We show that every thin position for a connected sum of small knots is obtained in an obvious way: place each summand in thin position so that no two summands intersect the same level surface, then connect the lowest minimum of each summand to the highest maximum of the adjacent summand below.

In this paper will be applied some principles and methods from econophysics in the case of the direct foreign investitions (D.F.I.), particularised for the Greenfield type, and mixed firms of trade and industrial production (Joint Ventures). To this aim will be used some similarities and parallelisms between the mentio…

Let L be a link in the 3-sphere that is in thin position but not in bridge position and let P be a thin level sphere. We generalize a result of Wu by giving a bound on the number of disjoint irreducible compressing disks that P can have, including identifying thin spheres with unique compressing disks. We also give con…

Compactifies group representations into thin triangle spaces.

In this paper, we give an algorithm to build all compact orientable atoroidal Haken 3-manifolds with tori boundary or closed orientable Haken 3-manifolds, so that in both cases, there are embedded closed orientable separating incompressible surfaces which are not tori. Next, such incompressible surfaces are related to …

Study thin hyperbolic reflection groups and their properties.

In this paper we produce many examples of thin subgroups of special linear groups that are isomorphic to the fundamental groups of non-arithmetic hyperbolic manifolds. Specifically, we show that the non-arithmetic lattices in $\mathrm{SO}(n,1)$ constructed by Gromov and Piatetski-Shapiro can be embedded into $\mathrm{S…

We introduce a method for creating a special type of tree, called a tree position, from a weighted graph. Leaves of the tree correspond to vertices of the original graph, and the tree edges contain information which can be used to partition these vertices. By repeatedly applying reducing operations to the tree position…

We unify the notions of thin position for knots and for 3-manifolds and survey recent work concerning these notions.

Signature uniquely identifies piecewise linear surfaces up to thin homotopy.

We show that, in the Teichmüller metric, "thin-framed triangles are thin"---that is, under suitable hypotheses, the variation of geodesics obeys a hyperbolic-like inequality. This theorem has applications to the study of random walks on Teichmüller space. In particular, an application is worked out for the action of th…

Paper tackles temporal overfitting in wind power curve modeling.

We generalize the definition of thin position of Scharlemann and Thompson for compact orientable 3-manifolds with torus boundary components and introduce $α$-sloped generalized Heegaard splittings. We examine its relationship to generalized Heegaard splittings of manifolds resulting from Dehn filling. We compare alpha-…

Let $M$ be a finite volume oriented Riemannian manifold of dimension $n\geq 3$ and curvature in $[-b^2,-1]$, with thick-thin decomposition $M=M(thick)\cup M(thin)$. Denote by $λ_k(M(thick))$ the k-th eigenvalue for the Laplacian on $M(thick)$, with Neumann boundary conditdions. We show that $λ_k(M(thick))/3\leq λ_k(M)$…

In this paper we find infinitely many lattices in $SL(4,\mathbb{R})$ each of which contains thin subgroups commensurable with the figure-eight knot group.

Symmetries in shell theory lead to multiple deformation possibilities.

Two subset germs of Euclidean spaces are called blow-spherically equivalent, if their spherical modifications are homeomorphic and the homeomorphism induces homeomorphic tangent links. Blow-spherical equivalence is stronger than the topological equivalence but weaker than the Lipschitz equivalence. We introduce the thi…
