We consider the 1D cubic NLS on $\mathbb R$ and prove a blow-up result for functions that are of borderline regularity, i.e. $H^s$ for any $s<-\frac 12$ for the Sobolev scale and $\mathcal F L^\infty$ for the Fourier-Lebesgue scale. This is…

Many geometry processing pipelines implicitly assume their input data is a manifold, or is sampled from one, with a unique tangent plane at every point. Geometric data, however, routinely contains sharp features like edges, corners,…
