We consider curvature flows in hyperbolic space with a monotone, symmetric, homogeneous of degree 1 curvature function F. Furthermore we assume F to be either concave and inverse concave or convex. For compact initial hypersurfaces, which…

In this paper we highlight the fact that the physical content of hyperbolic theories of relativistic dissipative fluids is, in general, much broader than that of the parabolic ones. This is substantiated by presenting an ample range of…

We show that a conceptually simple covering technique has surprisingly rich applications to density theorems and conjectures on patterns in sets involving set differences. These applications fall into three categories: (i) analogues of…

We prove the existence of closed hypersurfaces of prescribed scalar curvature in globally hyperbolic Lorentzian manifolds provided there are barriers.

We show that the class of groups satisfying the K- and L-theoretic Farrell-Jones conjecture is closed under taking graph products of groups.

We show that contracting self-similar groups satisfy the Farrell-Jones conjectures as soon as their universal contracting cover is non-positively curved. This applies in particular to bounded self-similar groups. We define, along the way, a…

We give an elementary construction of polyhedra whose links are connected bipartite graphs, which are not necessarily isomorphic pairwise. We show, that the fundamental groups of some of our polyhedra contain surface groups. In particular,…

We present a realistic phenomenological description of liquid transport through defective, layered membranes. We derive general expressions based on conventional models of laminar flow and extend the formalism to accommodate slip flow. We…

The aim of this short note is to provide a proof of the decidability of the generalized membership problem for relatively quasi-convex subgroups of finitely presented relatively hyperbolic groups, under some reasonably mild conditions on…

This paper investigates some actions "\`a la Johnson" on the set, denoted by ${\cal E}$, of Spin-structures which are interpreted as special double-coverings of a trivial $S^1-$fibration over a non-orientable surface $N_{g+1}$. The group…

We incorporate nonlinear covers of quasisplit reductive groups into the Langlands program, defining an L-group associated to such a cover. This L-group is an extension of the absolute Galois group of a local or global field $F$ by a complex…

Let N be a (n+1)-dimensional globally hyperbolic Lorentzian manifold with a compact Cauchy hypersurface. We consider curvature flows in N with different curvature functions F (including the mean curvature, the gauss curvature and the second…

We prove the Taylor-Kubo formula for a class of isotropic, non-mixing flows with long-range correlation. For the proof, we develop the method of high order correctors expansion.

Using a recent result of Bartels and Lueck (arXiv:0901.0442) we deduce that the Farrell-Jones Fibered Isomorphism conjecture in L-theory is true for any group which contains a finite index strongly poly-free normal subgroup, in particular,…

We prove the following: 1. Let epsilon>0 and let S_1,S_2 be two closed hyperbolic surfaces. Then there exists locally-isometric covers S'_i of S_i (for i=1,2) such that there is a (1+\epsilon) bi-Lipschitz homeomorphism between S'_1 and…
