Morphing is the process of changing one figure into another. Some numerical methods of 3D surface morphing by deformable modeling and conformal mapping are shown in this study. It is well known that there exists a unique Riemann conformal…
In this work, we study the simplest example of the landscape of conformal field theories: one-dimensional CFTs with finite-dimensional state space. Following the definition of quantum field theory given by G. Segal, we formulate the…
The conformal properties of metrics are meaningful in Riemannian and Finsler geometry, and cubic metrics are useful in physics and biology. In this paper, we study the conformally flat cubic metrics with weakly isotropic scalar curvature.…
We find analogues of the Willmore functional for each of the Thurston geometries with 4-dimensional isometry group such that the CMC-spheres in these geometries are critical points of these functionals.
In this paper, we establish some modified defect relations for the Gauss map $g$ of a complete minimal surface $S\subset\mathbb R^m$ into $\mathbb P^n(\mathbb C)\ (n=m-1)$ with only a single Fermat hypersurface $Q$ of $\mathbb P^n(\mathbb…
As is well known, constant mean curvature (CMC) spacelike hypersurfaces play an important role in solving the Einstein equations, both in solving the contraints and the evolution equations. In this paper we review the CMC existence result…
We perform a systematic study of the image of the Gauss map for complete minimal surfaces in Euclidean four-space. In particular, we give a geometric interpretation of the maximal number of exceptional values of the Gauss map of a complete…
We study conformal field theories (CFTs) on curved spaces including both orientable and unorientable manifolds possibly with boundaries. We first review conformal transformations on curved manifolds. We then compute the identity components…
We found a new formulation to the Euler-Lagrange equation of the Willmore functional for immersed surfaces in ${\R}^m$. This new formulation of Willmore equation appears to be of divergence form, moreover, the non-linearities are made of…
This paper presents a new version of boundary on coarse spaces. The space of ends functor maps coarse metric spaces to uniform topological spaces and coarse maps to uniformly continuous maps.
In this article, we propose some conditions on the modified defect relations of the Gauss map of a complete minimal surface $M$ to show that $M$ has finite total curvature.
Here we follow the mainstream of thinking about physical equivalence of different representations of a theory, regarded as the consequence of invariance of the laws of physics -- represented by an action principle and the derived motion…
To definite and compute differential invariants, like curvatures, for triangular meshes (or polyhedral surfaces) is a key problem in CAGD and the computer vision. The Gaussian curvature and the mean curvature are determined by the…
The Gauss map $g$ of a surface $\Sigma$ in $\mathbb{R}^4$ takes its values in the Grassmannian of oriented 2-planes of $\mathbb{R}^4$: $G^+(2,4)$. We give geometric criteria of stability for minimal surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^4$ in terms of…
We present a scale-invariant theory, conformal gravity, which closely resembles the geometrodynamical formulation of general relativity (GR). While previous attempts to create scale-invariant theories of gravity have been based on Weyl's…
We study ends of an oriented, immersed, non-compact, complete Willmore surfaces, which are critical points of the integral of the square of the mean curvature, in asymptotically flat spaces of any dimension; assuming the surface has…
We propose a weighted common subgraph (WCS) matching algorithm to find the most similar subgraphs in two labeled weighted graphs. WCS matching, as a natural generalization of the equal-sized graph matching or subgraph matching, finds wide…
In this paper, we define a new conformal invariant on complete non-compact hyperbolic surfaces that can be conformally compactified to bounded domains in $\mathbb{C}$. We study and compute this invariant up to one-connected surfaces. Our…
A classical approach for surface classification is to find a compact algebraic representation for each surface that would be similar for objects within the same class and preserve dissimilarities between classes. We introduce Self…
Roughly speaking, let us say that a map between metric spaces is large scale conformal if it maps packings by large balls to large quasi-balls with limited overlaps. This quasi-isometry invariant notion makes sense for finitely generated…
