Handling curved $ A_\infty $-deformations is challenging and defining their derived categories seems impossible. In this paper, we show how to welcome the curvature and build derived categories despite the apparent difficulties. We…

The usual Gromoll-Meyer's generalized Morse lemma near degenerate critical points on Hilbert spaces, so called splitting lemma, is stated for at least $C^2$-smooth functionals. In this paper we establish a splitting theorem and a shifting…

We prove a version of the fundamental theorems of Morse Theory in the setting of finite spaces or partially ordered sets. By using these results we extend Forman's discrete Morse theory to more general cell complexes and derive the…

In this paper we prove a Morse Lemma for degenerate critical points of a function u which satisfies -\Delta u=f(u) in B_1, where B_1 is the unit ball of R^2 and f is a smooth nonlinearity. Other results on the nondegeneracy of the critical…

Fatou's lemma is a classic fact in real analysis that states that the limit inferior of integrals of functions is greater than or equal to the integral of the inferior limit. This paper introduces a stronger inequality that holds uniformly…

Fix a d-minimal expansion of an ordered field. We consider the space $\mathcal D^p(M)$ of definable $\mathcal C^p$ functions defined on a definable $\mathcal C^p$ submanifold $M$ equipped with definable $\mathcal C^p$ topology. The set of…

We express Witten's deformation of Morse functions using deformation to the normal cone and $C^*$-modules. This allows us to obtain asymptotics of the `large eigenvalues'. Our methods extend to Morse functions along a foliation. We…

The classic Fatou lemma states that the lower limit of a sequence of integrals of functions is greater or equal than the integral of the lower limit. It is known that Fatou's lemma for a sequence of weakly converging measures states a…

The goal of this article is to generalise the Witten deformation to even dimensional conic manifolds and a class of functions called admissible Morse functions.

We extend the notion of belief function to the case where the underlying structure is no more the Boolean lattice of subsets of some universal set, but any lattice, which we will endow with a minimal set of properties according to our…

In this paper, we present extensions of the classical Bonnet-Myers theorem for Riemannian manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature. Our results provide criteria for compactness and a method for estimating the diameter of such manifolds…

Easy lowering local minima, after introducing valley functions on smooth manifolds gives, without gluing technicities, "M. Morse's lemma's" canonical form, moving critical values and eliminating pair of critical points theorems, reducing…

In this paper, we give a necessary and sufficient condition that discrete Morse functions on a digraph can be extended to be Morse functions on its transitive closure, from this we can extend the Morse theory to digraphs by using…

In the present paper, we generalize the well-known Hensel's lifting lemma to any continuous function $f : \mathbb{Z}_p\rightarrow \mathbb{Z}_p$. This answers a question posed by Axelsson and Khrennikov (2016) who showed the validity of…

We show that local deformations, near closed subsets, of solutions to open partial differential relations can be extended to global deformations, provided all but the highest derivatives stay constant along the subset. The applicability of…

The Riemann-Lebesgue Lemma says that the Fourier transform of an absolutely integrable function on the real line tends to zero as the transform parameter tends to infinity. When the integral is allowed to converge conditionally, the…

We obtain a generalization of the DeGiorgi Lemma to the infinitely degenerate regime and apply it to obtain continuity of weak solutions to certain infinitely degenerate equations. This reproduces the continuity result obtained in…

Let $M$ be a compact oriented simply-connected manifold of dimension at least 8. Assume $M$ is equipped with a torsion-free semi-free circle action with isolated fixed points. We prove $M$ has a perfect invariant Morse-Smale function. The…

With a new proof approach we prove in a more general setting the classical convergence theorem that almost everywhere convergence of measurable functions on a finite measure space implies convergence in measure. Specifically, we generalize…

We study the resonant prescribed T-curvature problem on a compact 4-dimensional Riemannian manifold with boundary. We derive sharp energy and gradient estimates of the associated Euler-Lagrange functional to characterize the critical points…
