A unified treatment is given of some results of H. Donnelly-P. Li and L. Schwartz concerning the behaviour of heat semigroups on open manifolds with given compactifications, on one hand, and the relationship with the behaviour at infinity…
As explained in detail in the prologue to this manuscript, boundedness of weak solutions for general classes of elliptic equations in divergence form is a classic tool for achieving higher regularity. We propose here some global boundedness…
Consider a Yang-Mills connection over a Riemann manifold $M=M^n$, $n\ge 3$, where $M$ may be compact or complete. Then its energy must be bounded from below by some positive constant, if $M$ satisfies certain conditions, unless the…
In this note we discuss how several results characterizing the qualitative behavior of solutions to the nonlinear Poisson equation can be generalized to harmonic maps with potential between complete Riemannian manifolds. This includes…
We present a generalization of a family of points on $\mathbb{S}^2$, the Diamond ensemble, containing collections of $N$ points on $\mathbb{S}^2$ with very small logarithmic energy for all $N\in\mathbb{N}$. We extend this construction to…
We prove that Riemannian foliations on complete contractible manifolds have a closed leaf, and that all leaves are closed if one closed leaf has a finitely generated fundamental group. Under additional topological or geometric assumptions…
We describe generating functions for arbitrary-genus Gromov-Witten invariants of the projective space with any number of marked points explicitly. The structural portion of this description gives rise to uniform energy bounds and vanishing…
We investigate a generalization of cubic splines to Riemannian manifolds. Spline curves are defined as minimizers of the spline energy - a combination of the Riemannian path energy and the time integral of the squared covariant derivative…
In this note we give upper bounds for the free energy of discrete polymers in random media. The bounds are given by the so-called generalized multiplicative cascades from the statistical theory of turbulence. For the polymer model, we…
We present a simple derivation of the energy formula found by Tan, relative to the single channel hamiltonian relevant for ultracold Fermi gases. This derivation is generalized to particles with different masses, to arbitrary mixtures, and…
We study the decay of the global energy for the damped Klein-Gordon equation on non-compact manifolds with finitely many cylindrical and subconic ends up to bounded perturbation. We prove that under the Geometric Control Condition, the…
The present article is a study of germs of regular foliations transverse to an embedded strongly exceptional submanifold of a complex manifold. Cohomological conditions are given on this embedding for the existence of these foliations and…
We consider general five-dimensional gauge theories compactified on on an orbifold S1/Z2 with all fields propagating in the bulk. We propose a generalized set of boundary conditions and derive the general features of the low…
Consider a singular Riemannian foliation (s.r.f for short) on a compact manifold. By successive blow-ups along the strata, we construct a regular Riemannian foliation on another compact Riemannian manifold and a desingularization map that…
We study minimal energy problems for strongly singular Riesz kernels on a manifold. Based on the spatial energy of harmonic double layer potentials, we are motivated to formulate the natural regularization of such problems by switching to…
We consider the varifold associated to the Allen--Cahn phase transition problem in $\mathbb R^{n+1}$(or $n+1$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds with bounded curvature) with integral $L^{q_0}$ bounds on the Allen--Cahn mean curvature (first…
We introduce generalized energies for a class of U_q(D^{(1)}_n) crystals by using the piecewise linear functions that are building blocks of the combinatorial R. They include the conventional energy in the theory of affine crystals as a…
We prove a Slice Theorem around closed leaves in a singular Riemannian foliation, and we use it to study the $C^\infty$-algebra of smooth basic functions, generalizing to the inhomogeneous setting a number of results by G.~Schwarz. In…
Let $A$ be a compact $d$-rectifiable set embedded in Euclidean space $\RR^p$, $d\le p$. For a given continuous distribution $\sigma(x)$ with respect to $d$-dimensional Hausdorff measure on $A$, our earlier results provided a method for…
A singular riemannian foliation on a complete riemannian manifold is said to be riemannian if each geodesic that is perpendicular at one point to a leaf remains perpendicular to every leaf it meets. The singular foliation is said to admit…
