In this article parametric versions of Wilson's plug and Kuperberg's plug are discussed. We show that there is a weak homotopy equivalence induced by the inclusion between the space of non-singular vector fields tangent to a foliation and…
We consider perturbations of Hamiltonians whose Fourier symbol attains its minimum along a hypersurface. Such operators arise in several domains, like spintronics, theory of supercondictivity, or theory of superfluidity. Variational…
In this short note we prove that the degree of the Gauss map {\nu} of a closed 3-dimensional hypersurface of the Euclidean space is a lower bound for the total bending functional B, introduced by G. Wiegmink. Consequently, the energy…
We prove the theorem mentioned in the title, for ${\mathbb{R}}^n$, where $n \ge 3$. The case of the simplex was known previously. Also, the case $n=2$ was settled, but there the infimum was some well-defined function of the side lengths. We…
We investigate projection constants within classes of multivariate polynomials over finite-dimensional real Hilbert spaces. Specifically, we consider the projection constant for spaces of spherical harmonics and spaces of homogeneous…
The existence of a vector field on a compact Kaehler manifold with nonempty zero locus and the properties of this zero locus strongly influence the geometry of the manifold. For example, J. Wahl proved that the existence of a vector field…
We prove that for every three-dimensional vector field, either it can be accumulated by Morse-Smale ones, or it can be accumulated by ones with a transverse homoclinic intersection of some hyperbolic periodic orbit in the $C^1$ topology.
We study a correspondence between smooth spacelike surfaces in Half-Pipe space $\mathbb{HP}^3$ and divergence-free vector fields on the hyperbolic plane $\mathbb{H}^2$. We show that a particular case involves harmonic Lagrangian vector…
The representations of the observable algebra of a low dimensional quantum field theory form the objects of a braided tensor category. The search for gauge symmetry in the theory amounts to finding an algebra which has the same…
It is shown using a space-time curvature classification and decomposition that for certain holonomy types of a space-time, proper projective vector fields cannot exist. Existence is confirmed, by example, for the remaining holonomy types.…
Vector beams are inhomogeneously polarized optical fields with nonseparable, quantum-like correlations between their polarisation and spatial components, and hold tremendous promise for classical and quantum communication across various…
The Poincar\'e-Hopf Theorem is a conservation law for real-analytic vector fields, which are tangential to a closed surface (such as a torus or a sphere). The theorem also governs real-analytic vector fields, which are tangential to…
We consider a family of vector fields defined in some bounded domain of R^p, and we assume that they satisfy Hormander's rank condition of some step r, and that their coefficients have r-1 continuous derivatives. We extend to this nonsmooth…
The semirelativistic Hamiltonian H = \beta\sqrt{m^2 + p^2} + V(r), where V(r) is a central potential in R^3, is concave in p^2 and convex in p. This fact enables us to obtain complementary energy bounds for the discrete spectrum of H. By…
Root systems are sets with remarkable symmetries and therefore they appear in many situations in mathematics. Among others, denominator formulae of root systems are very beautiful and mysterious equations which have several meanings from a…
In this paper, we make several contributions to the theory of asymptotically sectional-hyperbolic (ASH) flows. First, we prove that every star ASH attractor for a $C^2$ vector field is, in fact, sectional-hyperbolic (SH). Second, we…
We give the sharp lower bound of the volume product of three dimensional convex bodies which are invariant under two kinds of discrete subgroups of $O(3)$ of order four. We also characterize the convex bodies with the minimal volume product…
We study extremal properties of spherical random polytopes, the convex hull of random points chosen from the unit Euclidean sphere in $\mathbb{R}^n$. The extremal properties of interest are the expected values of the maximum and minimum…
Stewart has presented a position-space derivation of the identity for the volume integral of a product of two vector fields noted by Gubarev, Stodolsky, and Zakharov, and applied the results to classical electromagnetic theory. I present a…
We consider QCD_3 with an odd number of flavors in the mesoscopic scaling region where the field theory finite-volume partition function is equivalent to a random matrix theory partition function. We argue that the theory is parity…
