Do and Norbury found a so-called differential relation which relates the volume of the moduli space of singular surface with a cone point to that of a smooth surface obtained by forgetting the cone point. Their procedure is valid for cone…

We establish the result of the title. In combinatorial terms this has the implication that for sufficiently small eps > 0, for all n, any marking of an eps fraction of the vertices of the n-dimensional hypercube necessarily leaves a vertex…

We develop a general Minmax procedure in Euclidian spaces for constructing Willmore surfaces of non zero indices. We implement this procedure to the Willmore Minmax Sphere Eversion in the 3 dimensional euclidian space. We compute the cost…

We use a new approach that we call unification to prove that standard weighted double bubbles in $n$-dimensional Euclidean space minimize immiscible fluid surface energy, that is, surface area weighted by constants. The result is new for…

We study here the behaviour of solutions for conjugated (antipodal) points in the $2$-body problem on the two-dimensional sphere $\mathbb{M}^2_R$. We use a slight modification of the classical potential used commonly in \cite{Borisov},…

We re-examine positivity bounds on the $2\to2$ scattering of identical massless real scalars with a novel perspective on how these bounds can be used to constrain the spectrum of UV theories. We propose that the entire space of consistent…

We have investigated the unitarity violation scale of a non-minimally coupled scalar field with quartic self-coupling. This model is widely studied in the literature but the estimation of the unitarity violation scale has not been…

In this paper, based on the theory of surfaces in the four-dimensional Euclidean space which generalizes the theory of surfaces in three-dimensional Euclidean space, beside other results, we will give a characterization of points on…

We study configurations of points on the unit sphere that minimize potential energy for a broad class of potential functions (viewed as functions of the squared Euclidean distance between points). Call a configuration sharp if there are m…

We consider the singularly perturbed problem $F_\varepsilon (u,\Omega):=\int_\Omega \varepsilon |\nabla^2u| + \varepsilon^{-1}|1-|\nabla u|^2|^2$ on bounded domains $\Omega \subset\mathbb{R}^2$. Under appropriate boundary conditions, we…

We consider a projection from the center of the unit sphere to a tangent space of it, the central projection, and study two area minimizing problems of the image of a closed subset in the sphere. One of the problems is the uniqueness of the…
