We study the mean curvature flow of complete space-like submanifolds in pseudo-Euclidean space with bounded Gauss image, as well as that of complete submanifolds in Euclidean space with convex Gauss image. By using the confinable property…

We study the a.s. convergence of a sequence of random embeddings of a fixed manifold into Euclidean spaces of increasing dimensions. We show that the limit is deterministic. As a consequence, we show that many intrinsic functionals of the…

We construct large families of harmonic morphisms which are holomorphic with respect to Hermitian structures by finding heierarchies of Weierstrass-type representations. This enables us to find new examples of complex-valued harmonic…

In this article we propose a novel geometric model to study the motion of a physical flag. In our approach a flag is viewed as an isometric immersion from the square with values in $\mathbb R^3$ satisfying certain boundary conditions at the…

We investigate the stability of the Wasserstein distance, a metric structure on the space of probability measures arising from the theory of optimal transport, under metric ultralimits. We first show that if $(X_{i},d_{i})_{i\in\mathbb{N}}$…

In Wasserstein geometry, one-dimensional location-scale models are flat both intrinsically and extrinsically-that is, they are curvature-free as well as totally geodesic in the space of probability distributions. In this study, we introduce…
