We discuss and prove a theorem which asserts that any n-dimensional semi-Riemannian manifold can be locally embedded in a (n+1)-dimensional space with a non-degenerate Ricci tensor which is equal, up to a local analytic diffeomorphism, to…
In higher dimensional theories, we often assume that the extra dimensions form an orientable space, perhaps with singularities. However, many physical theories are well-defined on non-orientable spaces, and many spaces are not orientable,…
We prove that up to scaling there are only finitely many integral lattices L of signature (2,n) with n>20 or n=17 such that the modular variety defined by the orthogonal group of L is not of general type. In particular, when n>107, every…
We provide a lower bound for the embedding capacity of higher-dimensional symplectic ellipsoids, formulated in terms of the Lagrangian capacity of ellipsoids. Our approach relies on examining the Borman--Sheridan class of a Weinstein…
It is shown that any smooth closed orientable manifold of dimension $2k + 1$, $k \geq 2$, admits a smooth polynomially convex embedding into $\mathbb C^{3k}$. This improves by $1$ the previously known lower bound of $3k+1$ on the possible…
We show that a pair of orthogonal partial latin squares of order $n$ can be embedded in a pair of orthogonal latin squares of order at most $16n^4$ and all orders greater than or equal to $48n^4$. This paper provides the first direct…
The purpose of this note is to scrutinize the proof of Burago and Zalgaller regarding the existence of $PL$ isometric embeddings of $PL$ compact surfaces into $\mathbb{R}^3$. We conclude that their proof does not admit a direct extension to…
Let SO(n) act in the standard way on C^n and extend this action in the usual way to C^{n+1}. It is shown that a nonsingular special Lagrangian submanifold L in C^{n+1} that is invariant under this SO(n)-action intersects the fixed line C in…
We study nice nilpotent Lie algebras admitting a diagonal nilsoliton metric. We classify nice Riemannian nilsolitons up to dimension $9$. For general signature, we show that determining whether a nilpotent nice Lie algebra admits a…
We obtain regularity conditions of a new type of problems of the calculus of variations with second-order derivatives. As a corollary, we get non-occurrence of the Lavrentiev phenomenon. Our main result asserts that autonomous integral…
If a Lagrangian defining a variational problem has order $k$ then its Euler-Lagrange equations generically have order $2k$. This paper considers the case where the Euler-Lagrange equations have order strictly less than $2k$, and shows that…
We define an invariant $l(M,W,\omega)$ for Lagrangian submanifold and prove that if the Lagrangian submanifold is embedded in the ball of radius $r_0$, then $l(M,W,\Omega)$ must be smaller than $4\pi t_0^2$. This improves Gromov's…
Given a Euclidean simplex of dimension $n\geqslant 2$ let its radii of inscribed and circumscribed spheres be $r$ and $R$, and the distance between the centers of the inscribed and circumscribed spheres be $d.$ Then, $(R-nr)(R+(n-2)r)…
In this paper consisting of two parts, we study the integral of a logarithmic differential form on a compact semi-algebraic set in R^n or C^n. In Part I, we prove the convergence of the integral when the semi-algebraic set satisfies…
We establish the uniqueness up to Hamiltonian isotopy of the Lagrangian spheres in some four dimensional Stein manifolds.
We obtain a Bernstein theorem for special Lagrangian graphs in n-dimensional complex space for arbitrary n only assuming bounded slope, but no quantitative restriction.
We study continuous groups of generalized Kerr-Schild transformations and the vector fields that generate them in any n-dimensional manifold with a Lorentzian metric. We prove that all these vector fields can be intrinsically characterized…
An even lattice $M$ of signature $(n,2)$ is called $2$-reflective if there is a non-constant modular form for the orthogonal group of $M$ which vanishes only on quadratic divisors orthogonal to $2$-roots of $M$. In [Amer. J. Math. 2017]…
Motivated by work of the first author, this paper studies symplectic embedding problems of lagrangian products that are sufficiently symmetric. In general, lagrangian products arise naturally in the study of billiards. The main result of…
We classify the 6-dimensional Lie algebras of the form $g\times g$ that admit integrable complex structure. We also endow a Lie algebra of the kind $o(n)\oplus o(n)$ with such a complex structure. The motivation comes from geometric…
