In this paper, we study the Calabi-Yau conjectures for complete minimal hypersurfaces $\Sigma^{n}\subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ in dimensions $n\ge 3$. These conjectures ask whether a complete minimal hypersurface must be unbounded, and more…
We study topologically massive (B \wedge F) Abelian and non-Abelian gauge theories in four dimensions, and reduce them to three dimensions by assuming that the fields do not propagate in one of the spatial directions. For certain gauge…
After Chern's conjecture on the discreteness of the constant scalar curvatures of compact minimal submanifolds $M^n$ in unit spheres $\mathbb{S}^{n+q}$, Z. Q. Lu proposed a conjecture regarding the second gap, based on his ingenious…
This paper is a short survey of the recent results on examples of periodic two-dimensional continued fractions (in Klein's model). In the last part of this paper we formulate some questions, problems and conjectures on geometrical…
Abelian sandpile models, both deterministic, such as the Bak, Tang, Wiesenfeld (BTW) model [P. Bak, C. Tang and K. Wiesenfeld, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 59}, 381 (1987)], and stochastic, such as the Manna model [S.S. Manna, J. Phys. A {\bf 24},…
In [15] the authors proved the Pugh-Shub conjecture for partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms with 1-dimensional center, i.e. stable ergodic diffeomorphism are dense among the partially hyperbolic ones. In this work we address the issue of…
We define regularity scales to study the behavior of the Calabi flow. Based on estimates of the regularity scales, we obtain convergence theorems of the Calabi flow on extremal Kahler surfaces, under the assumption of global existence of…
This is the second paper of our series of papers on one dimensional conformal metric flows. In this paper we continue our studies of the one dimensional conformal metric flows, which were introduced in math.AP/0611254. We prove the global…
In this paper we study the common distance between points and the behavior of a constant length step discrete random walk on finite area hyperbolic surfaces. We show that if the second smallest eigenvalue of the Laplacian is at least 1/4,…
We propose to characterize the shapes of flat pebbles in terms of the statistical distribution of curvatures measured along the pebble contour. This is demonstrated for the erosion of clay pebbles in a controlled laboratory apparatus.…
It is shown that the descending plane partitions of Andrews can be geometrically realized as cyclically symmetric rhombus tilings of a certain hexagon where an equilateral triangle of side length 2 has been removed from its centre. Thus,…
Given a graph G and a configuration C of pebbles on the vertices of G, a pebbling step removes two pebbles from one vertex and places one pebble on an adjacent vertex. The cover pebbling number g=g(G) is the minimum number so that every…
Poonen and Slavov recently developed a novel approach to Bertini irreducibility theorems over an arbitrary field, based on random hyperplane slicing. In this paper, we extend their work by proving an analogous bound for the dimension of the…
Twisted symmetries, widely studied in the last decade, proved to be as effective as standard ones in the analysis and reduction of nonlinear equations. We explain this effectiveness in terms of a Lie-Frobenius reduction; this requires to…
We prove that self-similar measures on the real line are absolutely continuous for almost all parameters in the super-critical region, in particular confirming a conjecture of S-M. Ngai and Y. Wang. While recently there has been much…
Observing a linear superposition principle, a family of new minimal hypersurfaces in Euclidean space is found, as well as that linear combinations of generalized helicoids induce new algebraic minimal cones of arbitrarily high degree.
We consider cycle decompositions of even, $2an$-dimensional hypercubes $Q_{2an},$ where $a \geq 3$ is odd and $n \geq 1.$ Prior work done by Axenovich, Offner, and Tompkins focused on obtaining the existence of cycle decompositions for…
O. H. Keller conjectured in 1930 that in any tiling of $\Bbb R^n$ by unit $n$-cubes there exist two of them having a complete facet in common. O. Perron proved this conjecture for $n\le 6$. We show that for all $n\ge 10$ there exists a…
We prove a decomposition formula for the dimensional reduction of an extended topological field theory that arises as an orbifold of an equivariant topological field theory. Our decomposition formula can be expressed in terms of a…
Quantised random embeddings are an efficient dimensionality reduction technique which preserves the distances of low-complexity signals up to some controllable additive and multiplicative distortions. In this work, we instead focus on…
