Using the electrostatic potential $u$ due to a uniformly charged body $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$, $n\geq 3$, we introduce a family of monotone quantities associated with the level set flow of $u$. The derived monotonicity formulas are…

In this paper we first establish an optimal Sobolev type inequality for hypersurfaces in $\H^n$(see Theorem \ref{mainthm1}). As an application we obtain hyperbolic Alexandrov-Fenchel inequalities for curvature integrals and…

This paper aims to provide a description of totally isotropic Willmore two-spheres and their adjoint transforms. We first recall the isotropic harmonic maps which are introduced by H\'elein, Xia-Shen and Ma for the study of Willmore…

We consider the helical reduction of the wave equation with an arbitrary source on $(n+1)$-dimensional Minkowski space, $n\geq2$. The reduced equation is of mixed elliptic-hyperbolic type on ${\bf R}^n$. We obtain a uniqueness theorem for…

For a variety of diffeomorphism-invariant field theories describing hypersurface motions (such as relativistic M-branes in space-time dimension M+2) we perform a Hamiltonian reduction ``at level 0'', showing that a simple algebraic function…

We study large $N$ limits of the hyperbolic $O(N)$ linear sigma model ($\text{HLSM}_N$) on the two-dimensional torus $\mathbb T^2$, namely, a system of $N$ interacting stochastic damped nonlinear wave equations (SdNLW) with coupled cubic…

Let $\Sigma$ be a $k$-dimensional complete proper minimal submanifold in the Poincar\'{e} ball model $B^n$ of hyperbolic geometry. If we consider $\Sigma$ as a subset of the unit ball $B^n$ in Euclidean space, we can measure the Euclidean…

Let $M$ be a 5 dimensional Riemannian manifold with $Sec_M\in[0,1]$, $\Sigma$ be a locally conformally flat hypersphere in $M$ with mean curvature $H$. We prove that, there exists $\varepsilon_0>0$, such that $\int_\Sigma (1+H^2)^2 \ge…

In this paper we focus on different -- global, semi-local and local -- versions of Hoffman type inequalities expressed in a variational form. In a first stage our analysis is developed for generic multifunctions between metric spaces and we…

For any $\varepsilon>0$, we construct a closed hyperbolic surface of genus $g=g(\varepsilon)$ with a set of at most $\varepsilon g$ systoles that fill, meaning that each component of the complement of their union is contractible. This…

We discover new monotonicity formulae for minimal submanifolds in space forms, which imply the sharp area bound for minimal submanifolds through a prescribed point in a geodesic ball. These monotonicity formulae involve an energy-like…

This paper considers the time-harmonic Maxwell equations with impedance boundary condition.We present $H^2$-norm bound and other high-order norm bounds for strong solutions. The $H^2$-estimate have been derived in [M. Dauge, M. Costabel and…

We prove the existence of critical points of vortex type Hamiltonians \[ H(p_1,\ldots, p_N) = \sum_{{i,j=1},{i\ne j}}^N \Gamma_i\Gamma_jG(p_i,p_j)+\psi(p_1,\dots,p_N) \] on a closed Riemannian surface $(\Sigma,g)$ which is not homeomorphic…

For a bounded smooth domain in the plane and smooth boundary data we consider the minimisation of the Willmore functional for graphs subject to Dirichlet or Navier boundary conditions. For $H^2$-regular graphs we show that bounds for the…

The Hamiltonian formulation of Horava gravity is derived. In a closed universe the Hamiltonian is a sum of generators of gauge symmetries, the foliation-preserving diffeomorphisms, and vanishes on shell. The scalar constraint is second…

We use algebraic techniques to study homological filling functions of groups and their subgroups. If $G$ is a group admitting a finite $(n+1)$--dimensional $K(G,1)$ and $H \leq G$ is of type $F_{n+1}$, then the $n^{th}$--homological filling…

Let $k\ge 2$ be a fixed integer. We consider sums of type $\sum_{n_1\cdots n_k\le x} F(n_1,\ldots,n_k)$, taken over the hyperbolic region $\{(n_1,\ldots,n_k)\in {\Bbb N}^k: n_1\cdots n_k\le x\}$, where $F:{\Bbb N}^k\to {\Bbb C}$ is a given…

Let $\Omega$ be a compact and mean-convex domain with smooth boundary $\Sigma:=\partial\Omega$, in an initial data set $(M^3,g,K)$, which has no apparent horizon in its interior. If $\Sigma$ is spacelike in a spacetime $(\E^4,g\_\E)$ with…
