Using Heisenberg's uncertainty principle it is shown that the gravitational stability condition for a crystalline vacuum cosmic space implies to obtain an equation formally equivalent to the relation first used by Gamow to predict the…

The nucleation of vapor bubbles within a superheated fluid is studied using density functional theory. The nudged elastic band technique is used to find the minimum energy pathway from the metastable uniform liquid to the stable uniform gas…

Let $M$ be an $n$-dimensional Alexandrov space with curvature $\geq 1$, and let $\{q_1,\cdots,q_k\}$ be any $\frac\pi2$-separated subset in $M$ (i.e. the distance $|q_iq_j|\geq\frac{\pi}{2}$ for any $i\neq j$). Under the additional…

In many industrial processes, such as pouring a liquid or coating a rotating cylinder, air bubbles are entrapped inside the liquid. We propose a novel mechanism for this phenomenon, based on the instability of cusp singularities that…

Recent work has shown that a M\"obius strip soap film rendered unstable by deforming its frame changes topology to that of a disk through a 'neck-pinching' boundary singularity. This behavior is unlike that of the catenoid, which…

We prove a rigidity result in the sphere which allows us to generalize a result about smooth convex hypersurfaces in the sphere by Do Carmo-Warner to convex $C^2$-hypersurfaces. We apply these results to prove $C^{1,\beta}$-convergence of…
