Recent work on exotic smooth R^4's, i.e. topological R^4 with exotic differential structure, shows the connection of 4-exotics with the codimension-1 foliations of $S^{3}$, SU(2) WZW models and twisted K-theory $K_{H}(S^{3})$, $H\in…
These notes provide a self-contained introduction to Schauder theory on manifolds. First, we derive Schauder estimates for a fourth-order parabolic linear problem with a first- and third-order boundary condition on a smooth compact manifold…
In this paper, we obtain several new intrinsic and extrinsic differential sphere theorems via Ricci flow. For intrinsic case, we show that a closed simply connected $n(\ge 4)$-dimensional Riemannian manifold $M$ is diffeomorphic to $S^n$ if…
We study the celestial CFT dual to theories with bulk supersymmetry. The boundary theory realizes supersymmetry in the spirit of the Green-Schwarz superstring: there is manifest 4d super-Poincar\'e symmetry, but no 2d superconformal…
Stochastic flows of Stratonovich stochastic differential equations on exotic spheres have been studied. The consequences of the choice of exotic differential structure on stochastic processes taking place on the topological space…
We determine when an exotic sphere $\Sigma$ of dimension $d\not \equiv 1 (4)$ can be detected through the homotopy type of its truncated Disc-presheaf. The latter records the diagram of framed configuration spaces of bounded cardinality in…
In relation to the 4-dimensional smooth Poincar\'e conjecture we construct a tentative invariant of homotopy 4-spheres using embedded contact homology (ECH) and Seiberg-Witten theory (SWF). But for good reason it is a constant value…
This paper studies the rational homotopy groups of the group $\mathrm{Diff}(S^4)$ of self-diffeomorphisms of $S^4$ with the $C^\infty$-topology. We present a method to prove that there are many `exotic' non-trivial elements in…
We give a new proof for the local existence of a smooth isometric embedding of a smooth $3$-dimensional Riemannian manifold with nonzero Riemannian curvature tensor into $6$-dimensional Euclidean space. Our proof avoids the sophisticated…
In the paper we generalize the notion of problem (P) introduced by Poletsky. We introduce the notion of (P_m) extremals. For example, geodesics are (P_1) extremals. Using obtained results we present a description of (P_m) extremals in…
Some interesting (periodic!) solutions of certain systems of $4$ nonlinear Ordinary Differential Equations $dx_{n}\left( t\right) /dt=P_{2}^{\left( n\right) }\left[ x_{m}\left( t\right) \right] /\left[ x_{1}\left( t\right) +x_{2}\left(…
We develop a general theory for the existence of extremal K\"ahler metrics of Poincar\'e type in the sense of Auvray, defined on the complement of a toric divisor of a polarized toric variety. In the case when the divisor is smooth, we…
A fold map is a smooth map at each singular point of which it is represented as the product map of a Morse function and the identity map on an open ball. A special generic map is a fold map such that the Morse function can be taken as a…
One of the fundamental objects in the $K$-theoretic enumerative geometry of Nakajima quiver varieties is known as the the capping operator. It is uniquely determined as the fundamental solution to a system of $q$-difference equations. Such…
Consider a complete $d$-dimensional Riemannian manifold $(\mathcal M,g)$, a point $p\in\mathcal M$ and a nonlinearity $f(q,u)$ with $f(p,0)>0$. We prove that for any odd integer $N\ge3$, there exists a sequence of smooth domains…
We prove that nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations on the circle, without external parameters, admits plenty of almost periodic solutions. Indeed, we prove that arbitrarily close to most of the finite dimensional KAM tori constructed by…
We prove discrete analogs of four-vertex type theorems of spherical curves, which imply corresponding results for space polygons. The smooth theory goes back to the work of Beniamino Segre and, more recently, by Mohammad Ghomi, and consists…
We walk out the landscape of K-theoretic Poincare Duality for finite algebras. It paves the way to get continuum Dirac operators from discrete noncommutative manifolds.
As an application of the general theory on extrinsic geometry, we investigate extrinsic geometry in frag varieties and systems of linear PDE's for a class of special interest associated with the adjoint representation of $\mathfrak{sl}(3)$.…
We solve an open problem in spectral geometry: the construction of finite-dimensional, discrete geometries coordinatized by non-simple, exceptional Jordan algebras. The approach taken is readily generalisable to broad classes of…
