Monotonicity formulae play a crucial role for many geometric PDEs, especially for their regularity theories. For minimal submanifolds in a Euclidean ball, the classical monotonicity formula implies that if such a submanifold passes through…

Spin textures, i.e., the distribution of spin polarization vectors in reciprocal space, exhibit diverse patterns determined by symmetry constraints, resulting in a variety of spintronic phenomena. Here, we propose a universal theory to…

We intend to introduce classically a special Lagrangian density in such a way that, firstly, it leads to a special non-topological solitary wave solution, secondly, the stability of that is guaranteed properly, and thirdly, its dominant…

We introduce the basic elements of SO(n)-local theory of Regge Calculus. A first order formalism, in the sense of Palatini, is defined on the metric-dual Voronoi complex of a simplicial complex. The Quantum Measure exhibits an expansion, in…

Metrics of exceptional holonomy are vacuum solutions to the Einstein equation. In this paper we describe manifolds with holonomy contained in Spin(7) preserved by a three-torus symmetry in terms of tri-symplectic geometry of four-manifolds.…
