We present an explicit piecewise linear map from a flat Klein bottle (i.e. one that is locally isometric to the Euclidean plane) into Euclidean 3-space an that is an isometric immersion -- a path isometry that is locally injective. The…

We introduce a general framework for training flow matching models on Riemannian symmetric spaces, a large class of manifolds that includes the sphere, hyperbolic space and Grassmannians. We exploit their algebraic structure to reformulate…

Harmonic maps from S^2 to S^2 are all weakly conformal, and so are represented by rational maps. This paper presents a study of the L^2 metric gamma on M_n, the space of degree n harmonic maps S^2 -> S^2, or equivalently, the space of…

We prove that for any open orientable surface $S$ of finite topology, there exist a Riemann surface $\mathcal{M},$ a relatively compact domain $M\subset\mathcal{M}$ and a continuous map $X:\bar{M}\to\mathbb{C}^3$ such that: $\mathcal{M}$…

Let L->M be a Hermitian line bundle over a compact manifold. Write S for the space of all unitary connections in L whose curvatures define symplectic forms on M and G for the group of unitary bundle isometries of L, which acts on S by…

Rotation minimizing vector fields and frames were introduced by Bishop as an alternative to the Frenet frame. They are used in CAGD because they can be defined even the curvature vanishes. Nevertheless, many other geometric properties have…

Let $L_0,L_1,L_2 \subset M$ be exact Lagrangian spheres in a Liouville domain $M$ with $2c_1(M)=0$. If $L_0,L_1,L_2$ form an $A_3$-configuration, we show that $\mathscr{L}(L_0)$ and $\mathscr{L}(L_2)$ endowed with the Hofer metric contain…

We study function theory and K\"ahler geometry on total spaces of vector bundles on an elliptic curve. For rank two vector bundles of degree zero, we show that any two total spaces are biholomorphic if and only if the corresponding vector…

Let $f\colon M^{2n}\to\mathbb{R}^{2n+4}$ be an isometric immersion of a Kaehler manifold of complex dimension $n\geq 5$ into Euclidean space with complex rank at least $5$ everywhere. Our main result is that, along each connected component…

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…

We show that if $M$ is an Einstein hypersurface in an irreducible Riemannian symmetric space $\overline{M}$ of rank greater than $1$ (the classification in the rank-one case was previously known), then either $\overline{M}$ is of noncompact…

Given a 2-manifold, a fundamental question to ask is which groups can be realized as the isometry group of a Riemannan metric of constant curvature on the manifold. In this paper, we give a nearly complete classification of such groups for…
