Given an RCD$(K,N)$ space $({X},\mathsf{d},\mathfrak{m})$, one can use its heat kernel $\rho$ to map it into the $L^2$ space by a locally Lipschitz map $\Phi_t(x):=\rho(x,\cdot,t)$. The space $(X,\mathsf{d},\mathfrak{m})$ is said to be an…

The phase space of general relativity in a finite subregion is characterized by edge modes localized at the codimension-2 boundary, transforming under an infinite-dimensional group of symmetries. The quantization of this symmetry algebra is…

We prove that under some assumptions on the mean curvature the set of umbilical points of an immersed surface in a $3$-dimensional space form has positive measure. In case of an immersed sphere our result can be seen as a generalization of…

Let $M$ be a compact connected oriented $n-1$ dimensional manifold without boundary. In this work, shape space is the orbifold of unparametrized immersions from $M$ to $\mathbb R^n$. The results of \cite{Michor118}, where mean curvature…

We study closures of GL_2(R)-orbits on the total space of the Hodge bundle over the moduli space of curves under the assumption that they are algebraic manifolds. We show that, in the generic stratum, such manifolds are the whole stratum,…

A {\it wrinkled embedding} $f:V^n\to W^m$ is a topological embedding which is a smooth embedding everywhere on $V$ except a set of $(n-1)$-dimensional spheres, where $f$ has cuspidal corners. In this paper we prove that any rotation of the…

Let $A\subseteq\mathbb C$ be a starlike set with a center $a$. We prove that every tangent space to $A$ at the point $a$ is isometric to the smallest closed cone, with the vertex $a$, which includes $A$. A partial converse to this result is…

In this survey article we introduce the notion of frontals, which provides a class of generalised submanifolds with singularities but with well-defined tangent spaces. We present a review of basic theory and known studies on frontals in…
