Tuza conjectured that for every graph $G$, the maximum size $\nu$ of a set of edge-disjoint triangles and minimum size $\tau$ of a set of edges meeting all triangles satisfy $\tau \leq 2\nu$. We consider an edge-weighted version of this…

We consider the Dirac operator on right triangles, subject to infinite-mass boundary conditions. We conjecture that the lowest positive eigenvalue is minimised by the isosceles right triangle both under the area or perimeter constraints. We…

We prove a Central Limit Theorem for the Critical Points of Random Spherical Harmonics, in the High-Energy Limit. The result is a consequence of a deeper characterizations of the total number of critical points, which are shown to be…

In this paper we extend to non-compact Riemannian manifolds with boundary the use of two important tools in the geometric analysis of compact spaces, namely, the weak maximum principle for subharmonic functions and the integration by parts.…

Considerable work has gone into studying the properties of nonlocal diffusion equations. The existence of a principal eigenvalue has been a significant portion of this work. While there are good results for the existence of a principal…

In this paper we present a proof of a Neumann type maximum principle for the Laplace operator on compact Riemannian manifolds. A key p oint is the simple geometric nature of the constant in the a priori estimate of this maximum principle.…

Let $(M,g)$ be a two-dimensional Riemannian manifold of finite diameter with a conical singularity. Under the assumption that the metric near the cone point $C$ is rotationally invariant, but not necessarily flat, we give an explicit…

This article proves that if M is a smooth manifold of dimension at least four, then for generic choice of metric on M, all prime parametrized minimal surfaces in M are free of branch points and lie on nondegenerate critical submanifolds for…

We consider a new type of mappings in metric spaces which can be characterized as mappings contracting perimeters of triangles. It is shown that such mappings are continuous. The fixed-point theorem for such mappings is proved and the…

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, we obtain an upper bound for the 2k-th moment of the derivative of the Riemann zeta-function averaged over the non-trivial zeros of $\zeta(s)$ for every positive integer k. Our bounds are nearly as sharp as…

In this article, we give a proof for positive mass theorem of asymptotically flat manifolds with arbitrary ends when the dimension is no greater than seven. As an application, we also show a positive mass theorem for asymptotically locally…

We verify the three-dimensional Glassey conjecture for exterior domain (M, g), where the metric g is asymptotically Euclidean, provided that certain local energy assumption is satisfied. The radial Glassey conjecture exterior to a ball is…

We show that the 2-jet bundle of local Riemannian metrics on an arbitrary differentiable manifold admits a section which pointwise fulfills the curvature relation sec(g)=a for any real number a. It follows by Gromov's h-principle for open,…

Within gauge/gravity duality, we consider the AdS-Schwarzschild metric in arbitrary dimensions. We obtain analytical closed-form results for the two-point function, Wilson loop and entanglement entropy for strip geometries in the…

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…

We show explicitly how a strongly coupled fixed point can be constructed in scalar $g\varphi^4$ theory from the solutions to a non-linear eigenvalue problem. The fixed point exists only for $d< 4$, is unstable and characterized by $\nu=2/d$…

We fully characterize the eigenvalues (flat bands) of the maximal abelian cover of a finite multi-graph in terms of the combinatorics of the base graph. This solves a problem of Higuchi and Nomura (2009, Problem 6.11). We use our new…

The emergence of trapped surfaces in solutions to the Einstein field equations is intimately tied to the well-posedness properties of the corresponding Cauchy problem in the low regularity regime. In this paper, we study the question of…

We prove several analogs of Gromov's macroscopic dimension conjecture with extra curvature assumptions. More explicitly, we show that for an open Riemannian $n$-manifold $(M,g)$ of nonnegative Ricci (resp. sectional) curvature, if it has…
