Let $K=2^\mathbb{N}$ be the Cantor set, let $\mathcal{M}$ be the set of all metrics $d$ on $K$ that give its usual (product) topology, and equip $\mathcal{M}$ with the topology of uniform convergence, where the metrics are regarded as…

The comparison theory for the Riccati equation satisfied by the shape operator of parallel hypersurfaces is generalized to semi-Riemannian manifolds of arbitrary index, using one-sided bounds on the Riemann tensor which in the Riemannian…

We construct a continuous family of quasimodes for the Laplace-Beltrami operator on a translation surface. We apply our result to rational polygonal quantum billiards and thus construct a continuous family of quasimodes for the Neumann…

In this paper we define a new convergence called "asymptotically conic convergence" in which a smooth family of Riemannian metrics on a fixed compact manifold degenerate to a metric with isolated conic singularity. Our results are:…

We introduce, in the dual Macaev ideal of compact operators of a Hilbert space, the spectral weight $\rho(L)$ of a positive, self-adjoint operator $L$ having discrete spectrum away from zero. We provide criteria for its measurability and…

For a Morse function on a closed orientable Riemannian manifold one introduces the {\it virtually small spectral package} an analytic object consisting of a finite number of analytic quantities derived from the pair, {\it Riemannian metric,…

Calder\'on-Zygmund theory has been traditionally developed on metric measure spaces satisfying additional regularity properties. In the lack of good metrics, we introduce a new approach for general measure spaces which admit a Markov…

We study mappings on sub-Riemannian manifolds which are quasi-regular with respect to the Carnot-Caratheodory distances and discuss several related notions. On H-type Carnot groups, quasiregular mappings have been introduced earlier using…

We prove that the Riemannian metric on a compact manifold of dimension $n\geq 3$ with smooth boundary can be uniquely determined, up to an isometry fixing the boundary, by the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map associated to the Laplace-Beltrami…

Developing a theory for quantum gravity is one of the big open questions in theoretical high-energy physics. Recently, a tensor model approach has been considered that treats tensors as the generators of commutative non-associative…

Commutator relations are used to investigate the spectra of Schr\"odinger Hamiltonians, $H = -\Delta + V({x}),$ acting on functions of a smooth, compact $d$-dimensional manifold $M$ immersed in $\bbr^{\nu}, \nu \geq d+1$. Here $\Delta$…

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded domain in R d with Lipschitz boundary $\Gamma$. We define the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator N on L 2 ($\Gamma$) associated with a second order elliptic operator A = -- d k,j=1 $\partial$ k (c kl $\partial$ l) + d…

With the bare essentials of noncommutative geometry (defined by a spectral triple), we first describe how it naturally gives rise to gauge theories. Then, we quickly review the notion of twisting (in particular, minimally) noncommutative…

A 3-dimensional Riemannian manifold equipped with a tensor structure of type $(1,1)$, whose fourth power is the identity, is considered. This structure acts as an isometry with respect to the metric. A Riemannian almost product manifold…

The goal of this work is to decompose random populations with a genealogy in subfamilies of a given degree of kinship and to obtain a notion of infinitely divisible genealogies. We model the genealogical structure of a population by…

A trace on the C^*-algebra A of quasi-local operators on an open manifold is described, based on the results in \cite{RoeOpen}. It allows a description `a la Novikov-Shubin \cite{NS2} of the low frequency behavior of the Laplace-Beltrami…

We formalize the ``metric bundle'' viewpoint by defining, for any smooth $n$--manifold $M$, the open fiberwise cones $\mathcal{G}^{p,q}\subset S^2\Tstar M$ of nondegenerate symmetric bilinear forms with fixed signature $(p,q)$, and we…

We begin by studying the Riemannian geometry of the tangent Lie group $TG$ associated with a Lie group $G$ whose commutator subgroup is two-dimensional, equipped with the lift of a left-invariant Riemannian metric on $G$. We establish the…

Let $M$ be a Carath\'eodory hyperbolic complex manifold. We show that $M$ supports a real-analytic bounded strictly plurisubharmonic function. If $M$ is also complete K\"ahler, we show that $M$ admits the Bergman metric. When $M$ is…
