In the 1930s, H. Hopf conjectured that a closed, even-dimensional manifold of positive sectional curvature has positive Euler characteristic. We show this under the additional assumption of an isometric $T^4$-action on the manifold,…
We prove that any uniformly elliptic Weingarten (topological) sphere in S2xR must be congruent to the canonical example associated to the Weingarten equation. The result is obtained by proving that rotational uniformly elliptic Weingarten…
A regularization procedure developed in [1] for the integral curvature invariants on manifolds with conical singularities is generalized to the case of squashed cones. In general, the squashed conical singularities do not have rotational…
We study curvature-adapted submanifolds of general symmetric spaces. We generalize Cartan's theorem for isoparametric hypersurfaces of spheres and Wang's classification of isoparametric Hopf hypersurfaces in complex projective spaces to any…
This paper defines a theory of conformal parametrization of digital surfaces made of surfels equipped with a normal vector. The main idea is to locally project each surfel to the tangent plane, therefore deforming its aspect-ratio. It is a…
We prove the existence of noncrossed product and indecomposable division algebras over the function field of a smooth p-adic curve, especially when the curve does not admit a smooth model over Z_p. Thus we generalize arXiv 0907.0670. To…
Let $M^n$ be either a simply connected space form or a rank-one symmetric space of noncompact type. We consider Weingarten hypersurfaces of $M\times\mathbb R$, which are those whose principal curvatures $k_1,\dots ,k_n$ and angle function…
The results of a previous paper on the equivariant homotopy theory of crossed complexes are generalised from the case of a discrete group to general topological groups. The principal new ingredient necessary for this is an analysis of…
The analysis of scattering from complex objects using surface integral equations is a challenging problem. Its resolution has wide ranging applications- from crack propagation to diagnostic medicine. The two ingredients of any integral…
The generalised Hopf equation is the first order nonlinear equation with data $\Phi$ a holomorphic functions and $\eta\geq 1$ a positive weight, \[ h_w\,\overline{h_\wbar}\,\eta(w) = \Phi.\] The Hopf equation is the special case…
A large family of "standard" coboundary Hopf algebras is investigated. The existence of a universal R-matrix is demonstrated for the case when the parameters are in general position. Special values of the parameters are characterized by the…
In this paper, we study the Hopf hypersurfaces of the complex hyperbolic quadric $Q^{m*}=SO^o_{2,m}/(SO_2\times SO_m)$ ($m\geq3$) with constant principal curvatures. We classify the Hopf hypersurfaces of $Q^{m*}$ ($m\geq3$) with at most two…
Faltings' approach in $p$-adic Hodge theory can be schematically divided into two main steps: firstly, a local reduction of the computation of the $p$-adic \'etale cohomology of a smooth variety over a $p$-adic local field to a Galois…
A Hopf manifold is a compact complex manifold of which the universal covering is C^n\{0}. In this note we show that any Hopf manifold admits a locally conformally Kaehler structure (shortly lcK structure), by constructing a complex analytic…
Aiming for a revival of the theory of crystallographic complex reflection groups, we compute (minimal) Coxeter-like reflection presentations for the infinite families of those non-genuine groups which satisfy Steinberg's fixed point…
The normal forms up to the third order for a Hopf-steady state bifurcation of a general system of partial functional differential equations (PFDEs) is derived based on the center manifold and normal form theory of PFDEs. This is a…
This paper is an addendum to [4], in which the authors constructed a simply connected minimal complex surface of general type with p_g=0 and K^2=3. In this paper we construct a new non-simply connected minimal surface of general type with…
We introduce and begin to analyse a class of algebras, associated to congruence subgroups, that extend both the algebra of modular forms of all levels and the ring of classical Hecke operators. At the intuitive level, these are algebras of…
We consider three a priori totally different setups for Hopf algebras from number theory, mathematical physics and algebraic topology. These are the Hopf algebra of Goncharov for multiple zeta values, that of Connes-Kreimer for…
For $S$ a closed surface of genus at least $2$, let $\mathrm{Hit}_3(S)$ be the Hitchin component of representations to $\mathrm{SL}(3,\mathbb{R}),$ equipped with the Labourie-Loftin complex structure. We construct a mapping class group…
