In this paper we analyse the Euler implicit scheme for the volume preserving mean curvature flow. We prove the exponential convergence of the scheme to a finite union of disjoint balls with equal volume for any bounded initial set with…
We compute the Euler characteristics of the recently discovered series of Gothic Teichm\"{u}ller curves. The main tool is the construction of 'Gothic' Hilbert modular forms vanishing at the images of these Teichm\"{u}ller curves. Contrary…
A soft random graph $G(n,r,p)$ can be obtained from the random geometric graph $G(n,r)$ by keeping every edge in $G(n,r)$ with probability $p$. The soft random simplicial complexes is a model for random simplicial complexes built over the…

We define the characteristic cycle of a constructible sheaf on a smooth surface in the cotangent bundle. We prove that the intersection number with the 0-section equals the Euler number and that the total dimension of vanishing cycles at an…
We introduce Lipschitz-Killing curvature (LKC) regression, a new method to produce $(1-\alpha)$ thresholds for signal detection in random fields that does not require knowledge of the spatial correlation structure. The idea is to fit…
We study the geometric and combinatorial effect of smoothing an intersection point in a collection of arcs or curves on a surface. We prove that all taut arcs with fixed endpoints and all taut 1-manifolds with at least two non-disjoint…

We propose a geometric approach for bounding average stopping times for stopped random walks in discrete and continuous time. We consider stopping times in the hyperspace of time indexes and stochastic processes. Our techniques relies on…
We show short time existence and uniqueness of $\C^{1,1}$ solutions to the mean curvature flow with obstacles, when the obstacles are of class $\C^{1,1}$. If the initial interface is a periodic graph we show long time existence of the…
In this article, using the generalized Newton transformation, we define higher order mean curvatures of distributions of arbitrary codimension and we show that they agree with the ones from Brito and Naveira (Ann. Global Anal. Geom. 18,…
The phenomenom of emerging regular spectral features from random interactions is addressed in the context of the vibron model. A mean-field analysis links different regions of the parameter space with definite geometric shapes. The results…
For every closed set $K \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ and every $m \geq 2$, we construct a mean-convex ancient solution to mean curvature flow of hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^{m+n}$, with respect to a smooth Riemannian metric arbitrarily…
We consider a family of embedded, mean convex hypersurfaces in a Riemannian manifold which evolve by the mean curvature flow. We show that, given any number $T>0$ and any $\delta>0$, we can find a constant $C_0$ with the following property:…
We determine all the equivariant Euler characteristics of the building for the general unitary group over a finite field.
We discuss a set of relations, set in the form of results, conjectures and problems, between the L^{2}-norm of the Ricci curvature of a 3-manifold, the scalar curvature and the volume radius. We illustrate the scope of these relations with…
Given a closed, oriented surface M, the algebraic intersection of closed curves induces a symplectic form Int(.,.) on the first homology group of M. If M is equipped with a Riemannian metric g, the first homology group of M inherits a norm,…
We study the variational behavior of the total inverse mean curvature of curves with prescribed boundary in the half-plane. We characterize the existence of critical points with prescribed area. We show that such critical points are…
A rather natural construction for a smooth random surface in space is the level surface of value zero, or 'nodal' surface f(x,y,z)=0, of a (real) random function f; the interface between positive and negative regions of the function. A…
