We investigate scalar field theories in the multifield scenario, focusing mainly on the possibility to smoothly build internal structure and asymmetry for kinks and domain walls. The procedure requires the inclusion of an extra field which…

The skin effect, which is unique to non-Hermitian systems, can generate an extensive number of eigenstates localized near the boundary in an open geometry. Here we propose that in 2D and 3D other quantities besides charge density are…

A notion of dual curve for pseudoholomorphic curves in 4--manifolds turns out to be possible only if the notion of almost complex structure structure is slightly generalized. The resulting structure is as easy (perhaps easier) to work with,…

We study complete non-compact manifolds of positive scalar curvature, with a focus on how curvature decay is constrained by topology at infinity. Our first main result shows that topological linking at infinity forces polynomial decay of…

The principles behind the sharp, singular structures in a crumpled sheet are well understood. Here we discuss more general ways of exploiting such sharp structures to control the shape of a sheet by deforming or forcing it elsewhere. Often,…

We give a generalization of Thurston's Bounded Image Theorem for skinning maps, which applies to pared 3-manifolds with incompressible boundary that are not necessarily acylindrical. Along the way we study properties of divergent sequences…

We develop the details of a surgery theory for contact manifolds of arbitrary dimension via convex structures, extending the 3-dimensional theory developed by Giroux. The theory is analogous to that of Weinstein manifolds in symplectic…

In this paper, we give a new proof of the splitting theorem on manifolds with nonnegative spectral Ricci curvature proved in [APX24, CMMR24, HW26]. Furthermore, by constructing weighted minimizing geodesics at infinity, we show that minimal…

We study SU(3)-structures induced on orientable hypersurfaces of seven-dimensional manifolds with G_2-structure. Taking Gray-Hervella types for both structures into account, we relate the type of SU(3)-structure and the type of…

We study the contraction of strictly convex, axially symmetric hypersurfaces by a non-symmetric, non-homogeneous, fully nonlinear function of curvature. Starting from axially symmetric hypersurfaces with even profile curves, we show…

This paper studies the obstructions to deforming a map from a complex variety to another variety which is an immersion of codimension one. We extend the classical notion of semiregularity of subvarieties to maps between varieties, and show…
