Maps between certain Lipschitz manifolds are isometries if they preserve volume.

result Volume-preserving maps are isometries under given conditions.

We propose a novel approach to addressing the vanishing (or exploding) gradient problem in deep neural networks. We construct a new architecture for deep neural networks where all layers (except the output layer) of the network are a combination of rotation, permutation, diagonal, and activation sublayers which are all…

We study the long time behavior of the volume preserving pp-flow in Rn+1\mathbb{R}^{n+1} for 1p<n+1n11\leq p<\frac{n+1}{n-1}. By extending Andrews' technique for the flow along the affine normal, we prove that every centrally symmetric solution to the volume preserving pp-flow converges sequentially to the unit ball in the $…

Study reveals failure of uniqueness in dynamical invariants for 3D volume-preserving diffeomorphisms.

problem Uniqueness of dynamical invariants for 3D volume-preserving diffeomorphisms.
method Examined failure of uniqueness on integral homology spheres and arbitrary three-manifolds using local and global invariants.
result Failure of uniqueness is severe, with continuous and non-constant invariants appearing in C1C^1-open sets of nonvanishing exact fields of fixed helicity.

We consider the evolution of a closed convex hypersurface under a volume preserving curvature flow. The speed is given by a power of the m-th mean curvature plus a volume preserving term, including the case of powers of the mean curvature or of the Gauss curvature. We prove that if the initial hypersurface satisfies a …

We construct a new invariant-the trunkenness-for volume-perserving vector fields on S^3 up to volume-preserving diffeomorphism. We prove that the trunkenness is independent from the helicity and that it is the limit of a knot invariant (called the trunk) computed on long pieces of orbits.

The paper explores the connection between Poisson-Lie structures and invariant volume forms in Hamiltonian dynamics.

problem Understanding the relationship between Poisson-Lie structures and invariant volume forms in Hamiltonian systems.
method Analyzing the existence and preservation of invariant volume forms under Hamiltonian vector fields on Poisson-Lie groups.
result A unimodular Poisson-Lie structure ensures the preservation of a multiple of any left-invariant volume, and the existence of a preserving volume form implies unimodularity.

method Theoretical framework for well-conditioned coupling-based normalizing flows and volume-preserving flows.

result There exists a set of volumes with density 1 at infinity where isoperimetric sets are unique and strictly volume preserving stable.

We consider the relation between simplicial volume and two of its variants: the stable integral simplicial volume and the integral foliated simplicial volume. The definition of the latter depends on a choice of a measure preserving action of the fundamental group on a probability space. We show that integral foliated s…

We provide a variational description of any Liouville (i.e. volume preserving) autonomous vector fields on a smooth manifold. This is obtained via a ``maximal degree'' variational principle; critical sections for this are integral manifolds for the Liouville vector field. We work in coordinates and provide explicit for…
