The uncertainty principle generally prohibits determination of certain pairs of quantum mechanical observables with arbitrary precision and forms the basis of indeterminacy in quantum mechanics. It was Heisenberg who used the famous…
In this paper, we study the rigidity and {\epsilon}-regularity theorems of Ricci shrinkers. First we prove the rigidity of the asymptotic volume ratio and local volume around a base point of a non-compact Ricci shrinker. Next we obtain some…
We study gradient Ricci solitons with maximal symmetry. First we show that there are no non-trivial homogeneous gradient Ricci solitons. Thus the most symmetry one can expect is an isometric cohomogeneity one group action. Many examples of…
We prove some boundary rigidity results for the hemisphere under a lower bound for Ricci curvature. The main result can be viewed as the Ricci version of a conjecture of Min-Oo.
We prove a quantitative stability result for the Heisenberg-Pauli-Weyl inequality. This yields next and next-to-next order correction terms, sharpening the inequality in all dimensions.
This paper studies a complete gradient Ricci soliton with an isoparametric potential function. Our first theorem asserts that, for the steady case, there is a critical level set of codimension greater than one. This is consistent with…
In this note, we consider the implications of the Heisenberg uncertainty principle (HUP) when computing uncertainties that affect the main dynamical quantities, from the perspective of special relativity. Using the well-known formula for…
We classify four-dimensional shrinking Ricci solitons satisfying $Sec \geq \frac{1}{24} R$, where $Sec$ and $R$ denote the sectional and the scalar curvature, respectively. They are isometric to either $\mathbb{R}^{4}$ (and quotients),…
In this paper, we study several properties of Sasaki-Ricci solitons as singularity models of the Sasaki-Ricci flow. First, we establish several fundamental equations for Sasaki-Ricci solitons, which enable us to derive potential estimates…
We show that for an $n$ dimensional complete non Ricci flat gradient steady Ricci soliton with potential function $f$ bounded above by a constant and curvature tensor $Rm$ satisfying $\overline{\lim}_{r\to \infty} r|Rm|<\frac{1}{5}$, then…
The Heisenberg-Robertson uncertainty relation quantitatively expresses the impossibility of jointly sharp preparation of incompatible observables. However it does not capture the concept of incompatible observables because it can be trivial…
In this paper, we establish the rigidity of the generalized cylinder $N^n \times \mathbb R^{m-n}$, or a quotient thereof, in the space of Ricci shrinkers equipped with the pointed-Gromov-Hausdorff topology. Here, $N$ is a stable Einstein…
In this paper, we provide the Heisenberg's inequality and the Hardy's theorem for the Clifford-Fourier transform on $\mathbb{R}^m$.
This paper studies gradient almost Ricci-harmonic soliton with respect to a fixed metric. We rely on analytic techniques to estabilish some basic elliptic and integral equations for the structure of almost Ricci-harmonic soliton which…
This is a sequel to our paper [24], in which we investigated the geometry of 4-dimensional gradient shrinking Ricci solitons with half positive (nonnegative) isotropic curvature. In this paper, we mainly focus on 4-dimensional gradient…
Heisenberg's uncertainty principle is usually taken to express a limitation of operational possibilities imposed by quantum mechanics. Here we demonstrate that the full content of this principle also includes its positive role as a…
In this paper, we prove the anisotropic Shannon inequality for the Renyi entropy with the best constant on Folland-Stein homogeneous Lie groups. As a consequence, we also prove the optimal Shannon inequality in the same setting. Using a…
We derive the sharp constants for the inequalities on the Heisenberg group H^n whose analogues on Euclidean space R^n are the well known Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequalities. Only one special case had been known previously, due to…
We prove that any gradient shrinking Ricci soliton has at most Euclidean volume growth. This improves a recent result of H.-D. Cao and D. Zhou by removing a condition on the growth of scalar curvature.
We provide a somewhat geometric proof of a rigidity theorem by M. Ledoux and C. Xia concerning complete manifolds with non-negative Ricci curvature supporting an Euclidean-type Sobolev inequality with (almost) best Sobolev constant. Using…
