The theory of Lambda-rings, in the sense of Grothendieck's Riemann-Roch theory, is an enrichment of the theory of commutative rings. In the same way, we can enrich usual algebraic geometry over the ring Z of integers to produce…

We study measures associated to Brownian motions on infinite-dimensional Heisenberg-like groups. In particular, we prove that the associated path space measure and heat kernel measure satisfy a strong definition of smoothness.

We outline a reduction scheme for a class of Brownian dynamics which leads to meaningful corrections to the Smoluchowski equation in the overdamped regime. The mobility coefficient of the reduced dynamics is obtained by exploiting the…

We consider the heat equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions on the tubular neighborhood of a closed Riemannian submanifold. We show that, as the tube radius decreases, the semigroup of a suitably rescaled and renormalized generator can…

Recent work on Abelian topological phases with rotational symmetry has raised the question of whether rotational symmetry can protect gapless propagating edge modes. Here we address this issue by considering the coupling of topological…

We prove a tubular neighborhood theorem for an embedded complex geodesic surface in a complex hyperbolic 2-manifold where the width of the tube depends only on the Euler characteristic of the embedded surface. We give an explicit estimate…

We study random perturbations of Riemannian manifolds $(\mathsf{M},\mathsf{g})$ by means of so-called Fractional Gaussian Fields, which are defined intrinsically by the given manifold. The fields $h^\bullet: \omega\mapsto h^\omega$ will act…

This paper proposes a novel framework for manifold-valued regression and establishes its consistency as well as its contraction rate. It assumes a predictor with values in the interval $[0,1]$ and response with values in a compact…

The lack of a uniformization theorem in several complex variables leads to a desire to classify all of the simply connected domains. We use established computational methods and a localization technique to generalize a recently-published…

Representing graphs as sets of node embeddings in certain curved Riemannian manifolds has recently gained momentum in machine learning due to their desirable geometric inductive biases, e.g., hierarchical structures benefit from hyperbolic…
