We prove that certain asymptotically flat initial data sets with nontrivial topology and/or differentiable structure collapse to form singularities. The class of such initial data sets is characterized by a new smooth invariant, the maximal…
In this work, we study the convergence of the normalized Yamabe flow with positive Yamabe constant on a class of pseudo-manifolds that includes stratified spaces with iterated cone-edge metrics. We establish convergence under a low energy…
This paper studies the combinatorial Yamabe flow on hyperbolic surfaces with boundary. It is proved by applying a variational principle that the length of boundary components is uniquely determined by the combinatorial conformal factor. The…
Over-/under-break excavation is a common phenomenon in shallow tunnelling, which is nonetheless not generally considered in existing complex variable solutions. In this paper, a new equilibrium mechanical model on over-/under-break shallow…
We introduce certain energy functionals to the complex Monge-Ampere equation over a bounded domain with inhomogeneous boundary condition, and use these functionals to show the convergence of the solution to the parabolic Monge-Ampere…
We describe some general constructions on a real smooth projective 4-quadric which provide analogues of the Willmore functional and conformal Gauss map in both Lie sphere and projective differential geometry. Extrema of these functionals…

Two solvable Hamiltonians for describing the dynamic gamma deformation, are proposed. The limiting case of each of them is the X(5) Hamiltonian. Analytical solutions for both energies and wave functions, which are periodic in $\gamma$, are…

In this paper, we investigate the prescribed scalar curvature problem on a non-compact Riemannian manifold $(M, \langle \, , \, \rangle)$, namely the existence of a conformal deformation of the metric $\langle \, , \, \rangle$ realizing a…
We present a novel and comprehensive approach to the study of the parametric Plateau problem for locally strictly convex (LSC) hypersurfaces of prescribed curvature for general convex curvature functions inside general Riemannian manifolds.…
We continue to develop our method for effectively computating the special K\"ahler geometry on the moduli space of Calabi-Yau manifolds. We generalize it to all polynomial deformations of Fermat hypersurfaces.
Integrals of characteristic classes of tautological sheaves on the Hilbert scheme of points on a surface frequently arise in enumerative problems. We use the K-theoretic Donaldson-Thomas theory of certain toric Calabi-Yau threefolds to…
In this article we study the cohomological and homological (due to Jannsen) Hodge conjecture for singular varieties. The motivation for studying singular varieties comes from the fact that any smooth projective variety X is birational to a…
We give some a priori estimates of type sup*inf for Yamabe and prescribed scalar curvature type equations on Riemannian manifolds of dimension >2. The product sup*inf is caracteristic of those equations, like the usual Harnack inequalities…
Let $X$ be a complex four-dimensional compact Calabi-Yau manifold equipped with a K\"ahler form $\omega$ and a holomorphic four-form $\Omega$. Under certain assumptions, we define Donaldson-Thomas type deformation invariants by studying the…
A Green's function method is developed for solving strongly-coupled gravity and matter in the semiclassical limit. In the strong-coupling limit, one assumes that Newton's constant approaches infinity. As a result, one may neglect second…
