Let $M$ be a compact Riemannian manifold without boundary, with $L^2$-normalized Laplace-Beltrami eigenfunctions $\{e_j\}_j$, which satisfy $\Delta_g e_j = -\lambda_j^2 e_j$. We study the following inner product of eigenfunctions \[ \langle…

We study the spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian operator in a two-dimensional twisted strip embedded in $\mathbb R^d$ with $d \geq 2$. It is shown that a local twisting perturbation can create discrete eigenvalues for the operator. In…

We provide a step towards classifying Riemannian four-manifolds in which the curvature tensor has zero divergence, or -- equivalently -- the Ricci tensor Ric satisfies the Codazzi equation. Every known compact manifold of this type belongs…

In this paper, we investigate critical points of the Laplacian's eigenvalues considered as functionals on the space of Riemmannian metrics or a conformal class of metrics on a compact manifold. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions…

We give several equivalent conditions that characterize the 2+2 warped spacetimes: imposing the existence of a Killing-Yano tensor $A$ subject to complementary algebraic restrictions; in terms of the projector $v$ (or of the canonical…

A class is studied of complex valued functions defined on the unit disk (with a possible exception of a discrete set) with the property that all their Pick matrices have not more than a prescribed number of negative eigenvalues. Functions…

We give a new proof of existence as well as two proofs of uniqueness of the invariant measure of the open-boundary KPZ equation on [0,1], for all possible choices of inhomogeneous Neumann boundary data. Both proofs yield an exponential…

By methods of stochastic analysis on Riemannian manifolds, we derive explicit constants $c\_1(D)$ and $c\_2(D)$ for a $d$-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold $D$ with boundary such that $c\_1(D)\sqrt{\lambda}\|\phi\|\_\infty \le…

In this paper the certain 4-dimensional algebra in 4-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian space with signature (1, -1, -1, -1) is constructed. On the basis of this algebra the elements of the analysis, i.e. the theory of 4-dimensional functions of…

In a previous paper, the second author defined integer-valued functions delta_n on the first cohomology of a 3-manifold, generalizing McMullen's Alexander norm. It was shown that these functions give lower bounds on the Thurston norm. In…

The conjecture of Kosniowski asserts that if the circle acts on a compact unitary manifold $M$ with a non-empty fixed point set and $M$ does not bound a unitary manifold equivariantly, then the dimension of the manifold is bounded above by…

In this paper, we consider an interior transmission eigenvalue problem on two compact Riemannian manifolds with common smooth boundary. We suppose that a couple of these manifolds is equipped with locally anisotropic type Riemannian metric…

The integrability of $R^2$-gravity with torsion in two dimensions is traced to an ultralocal dynamical symmetry of constraints and momenta in Hamiltonian phase space. It may be interpreted as a quadratically deformed $iso(2,1)$-algebra with…

Bloch theorem for a periodic operator is being revisited here, and we notice extra orthogonality relationships. It is shown that solutions are bi-periodic, in the sense that eigenfunctions are periodic with respect to one argument, and…

This article introduces a trace-based metric on the space of positive semi-definite (PSD) tensors, offering a geometric perspective that connects their algebraic structure to their intrinsic geometric properties. It defines the…

We study a class of potentials $f$ on one sided full shift spaces over finite or countable alphabets, called potentials of product type. We obtain explicit formulae for the leading eigenvalue, the eigenfunction (which may be discontinuous)…

We introduce polar metrics on a product manifold, which have product and warped product metrics as special cases. We prove a de Rham-type theorem characterizing Riemannian manifolds that can be locally decomposed as a product manifold…

We prove that the family of measured dynamical systems which can be realised as uniquely ergodic minimal homeomorphisms on a given manifold (of dimension at least two) is stable under measured extension. As a corollary, any ergodic system…

A well-known theorem of Assouad states that metric spaces satisfying the doubling property can be snowflaked and bi-Lipschitz embedded into Euclidean spaces. Due to the invariance of many geometric properties under bi-Lipschitz maps, this…

In this article we prove a differentiable rigidity result. Let $(Y, g)$ and $(X, g_0)$ be two closed $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds ($n\geqslant 3$) and $f:Y\to X$ be a continuous map of degree $1$. We furthermore assume that the…
