We study weak solutions to degenerate quasilinear elliptic equations, involving first order terms, in unbounded tubular domains. In particular we show that, under suitable hypotheses, the weak comparison principle holds if the domain is narrow enough.

Here, we focus on focal surfaces of a tubular surface in Euclidean 3-space E^3: Firstly, we give the tubular surfaces with respect to Frenet and Darboux frames. Then, we define focal surfaces of these tubular surfaces. We get some results for these types of surfaces to become flat and we show that there is no minimal f…

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 $\sim \frac{1}{\sqrtλ}$. …

In this paper, we study the timelike tubular Weingarten surfaces in 3-dimensional Minkowski space $IR_1^3$.We have obtained some conditions for being $({K_{II},H})$, $({K_{II},K})$, timelike tubular Weingarten surfaces where are the second Gaussian curvature the Gaussian curvature and the mean curvature, respectively.

Tubes in manifolds require wide spaces.

Study calculates reach and curvature of a specific geometric variety.

We give a method of constructing maps between tubular groups inductively according to a set of strategies. This map will be a quasi-isometry exactly when the set of strategies is consistent. Conversely, if there exists a quasi-isometry between tubular groups, then there is a consistent set of strategies for them. There…

We present a new construction of tubular neighborhoods in (possibly infinite dimensional) Riemannian manifolds M, which allows us to show that if G is an arbitrary group acting isometrically on M, then every G-invariant submanifold with locally trivial normal bundle has a G-invariant total tubular neighborhood. We appl…

A tubular group is a group that acts on a tree with $\mathbb{Z}^2$ vertex stabilizers and $\mathbb{Z}$ edge stabilizers. This paper develops further a criterion of Wise and determines when a tubular group acts freely on a finite dimensional CAT(0) cube complex. As a consequence we offer a unified explanation of the fai…

Study classifies hypersurfaces in 4D Lorentz-Minkowski space using specific operators.

We give upper and lower bounds on the volume of a tubular neighborhood of the nodal set of an eigenfunction of the Laplacian on a real analytic closed Riemannian manifold M. As an application we consider the question of approximating points on M by nodal sets, and explore analogy with approximation by rational numbers.

We consider a Laplace eigenfunction $\varphi_λ$ on a smooth closed Riemannian manifold, that is, satisfying $-Δ\varphi_λ= λ\varphi_λ$. We introduce several observations about the geometry of its vanishing (nodal) set and corresponding nodal domains. First, we give asymptotic upper and lower bounds on the volume of a tu…

Study on heat content for submanifolds in sub-Riemannian geometry.

Skeleta and other pure subsets of manifold stratified spaces are shown to have neighborhoods which are teardrops of stratified approximate fibrations (under dimension and compactness assumptions). In general, the stratified approximate fibrations cannot be replaced by bundles, and the teardrops cannot be replaced by ma…

We study torsion properties of the twisted Alexander modules of the affine complement $M$ of a complex essential hyperplane arrangement, as well as those of punctured stratified tubular neighborhoods of complex essential hyperplane arrangements. We investigate divisibility properties between the twisted Alexander polyn…

We consider the Laplacian in a domain squeezed between two parallel hypersurfaces in Euclidean spaces of any dimension, subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions on one of the hypersurfaces and Neumann boundary conditions on the other. We derive two-term asymptotics for eigenvalues in the limit when the distance between…

We provide a model for an open invariant neighborhood of any orbit in a symplectic manifold endowed with a canonical proper symmetry. Our results generalize the constructions of Marle and Guillemin and Sternberg for canonical symmetries that have an associated momentum map. In these papers the momentum map played a cru…

We introduce the natural and fairly general notion of a subanalytic bundle (with a finite dimensional vector space $P$ of sections) on a subanalytic subset $X$ of a real analytic manifold $M$, and prove that when $M$ is compact, there is a Baire subset $U$ of sections in $P$ whose zero-loci in $X$ have tubular neighbou…

Linearizability of singular foliations is preserved under a specific equivalence relation.

In this paper we construct a new class of surfaces whose geodesic flow is integrable (in the sense of Liouville). We do so by generalizing the notion of tubes about curves to 3-dimensional manifolds, and using Jacobi fields we derive conditions under which the metric of the generalized tubular sub-manifold admits an ig…

In this note, we prove that given a submanifold $P$ in a Finsler manifold $(M,F)$, (i) the orthogonal geodesics to $P$ minimize the distance from $P$ at least in some interval, (ii) there exist tubular neighbourhoods around each point of $P$, (iii) the distance from $P$ is smooth in some open neighbourhood of $P$ (but …

Frustration causes buckling-like behavior in tubular foldable mechanisms.

Tubular neighborhoods play an important role in differential topology. We have applied these constructions to geometry of almost Hermitian manifolds. At first, we consider deformations of tensor structures on a normal tubular neighborhood of a submanifold in a Riemannian manifold.Further, an almost hyperHermitian struc…

We show, using Wise's equitable sets criterion, that every tubular free by cyclic group acts freely on a CAT(0) cube complex. We also show that these groups have a finite index subgroup satisfying the strongest Tits alternative, which means that every subgroup either surjects a non abelian free group or is torsion free…

New Morse theory for shapes at distances.

The paper studies deformations of Lagrangian submanifolds using algebraic tools.

The problem of determining the volume of a tubular neighbourhood has a long and rich history. Bounds on the volume of neighbourhoods of algebraic sets have turned out to play an important role in the probabilistic analysis of condition numbers in numerical analysis. We present a self-contained derivation of bounds on t…

We discuss two generalizations of the collar lemma. The first is the stable neighborhood theorem which says that a (not necessarily simple) closed geodesic in a hyperbolic surface has a \lq\lq stable neighborhood\rq\rq whose width only depends on the length of the geodesic. As an application, we show that there is a lo…

Study shows invariant curves in tubular origami dynamics, revealing geometric barriers to folding transitions.

We prove the existence of canonical tubular neighbourhoods around complex submanifolds of Kähler manifolds that are adapted to both the holomorphic and symplectic structure. This is done by solving the complex Homogeneous Monge-Ampère equation on the deformation to the normal cone of the submanifold. We use this to est…

In this article we extend the computational geometric curve reconstruction approach to curves in Riemannian manifolds. We prove that the minimal spanning tree, given a sufficiently dense sample, correctly reconstructs the smooth arcs and further closed and simple curves in Riemannian manifolds. The proof is based on th…

The paper studies canal hypersurfaces in Lorentz-Minkowski 4-space.

This paper is concerned with the location of nodal sets of eigenfunctions of the Dirichlet Laplacian in thin tubular neighbourhoods of hypersurfaces of the Euclidean space of arbitrary dimension. In the limit when the radius of the neighbourhood tends to zero, it is known that spectral properties of the Laplacian are a…

We derive spectral sequences for the intersection homology of stratified fibrations and approximate tubular neighborhoods in manifold stratified spaces. These neighborhoods include regular neighborhoods in PL stratified spaces.

The authors showed in a preceding paper that in a connected locally harmonic manifold, the volume of a tube of small radius about a regularly parameterized simple arc depends only on the length of the arc and the radius. In this paper, we show that this property characterizes harmonic manifolds even if it is assumed on…
