We view conformal surfaces in the 4--sphere as quaternionic holomorphic curves in quaternionic projective space. By constructing enveloping and osculating curves, we obtain new holomorphic curves in quaternionic projective space and thus…

Pressure-imposed rheometry is used to examine the influence of surface roughness on the rheology of immersed and dry frictional spheres in the dense regime. The quasi-static value of the effective friction coefficient is not significantly…

We study integration and $L_2$-approximation on countable tensor products of function spaces of increasing smoothness. We obtain upper and lower bounds for the minimal errors, which are sharp in many cases including, e.g., Korobov, Walsh,…

We establish a rigidity theorem for Brendle and Hung's recent systolic inequality, which involves Gromov's notion of \(T^{\rtimes}\)-stabilized scalar curvature. Our primary technique is the construction of foliations by free boundary…

For a closed, strictly convex projective manifold of dimension $n\geq 3$ that admits a hyperbolic structure, we show that the ratio of Hilbert volume to hyperbolic volume is bounded below by a constant that depends only on dimension. We…

In this paper we study the local regularity of closed surfaces immersed in a Riemannian 3-manifold flowing by Willmore flow. We establish a pair of concentration-compactness alternatives for the flow, giving a lower bound on the maximal…

We establish two classification theorems for Willmore surfaces in $\mathbb{S}^2 \times \mathbb{S}^2$. Firstly, we prove that a Willmore surface which is also minimal must be either a special complex curve given by a slice or a diagonal; or,…

We show that a master integrand basis exists for all planar, two-loop amplitudes in massless four-dimensional theories which is fully stratified by rigidity -- with each integrand being either pure and strictly polylogarithmic or (pure and)…
