A collection C of subgroups of a finite group G can give rise to three different standard formulas for the cohomology of G in terms of either: the subgroups in C; or their centralizers; or their normalizers. We give a short but systematic…
We generalise the formula expressing the matrix trace of a given square matrix as the integral of the numerical values of $A$ over the Euclidean sphere to the unit spheres of finite-dimensional normed spaces that have a 1-symmetric basis.…
We give an explicit characterization for group extensions that correspond to elements of the symmetric cohomology $HS^2(G,A)$. We also give conditions for the map $HS^n(G,A)\to H^n(G,A)$ to be injective.
The work develops further the theory of the following inversion problem, which plays the central role in the rapidly developing area of thermoacoustic tomography and has intimate connections with PDEs and integral geometry: {\it Reconstruct…
In this paper, we establish symmetry results for solutions of the mean field equation \[ \frac{\alpha}{2} \Delta u + e^u - 1 = 0 \] on \( \mathbb{S}^2 \) for $\frac{1}{3}\leq \alpha < \frac{1}{2}$.The proofs utilize the Sphere Covering…
Given a metric $\gamma$ of nonnegative Gauss curvature and a positive function $H$ on a $2$-sphere $\Sigma$, we estimate the Bartnik quasi-local mass of $(\Sigma, \gamma, H)$ in terms of the area, the total mean curvature, and a quantity…
The symplectic group Sp(2g,Z) is a subgroup of the linear group SL(2g,Z) and admits a faithful action on the sphere S^(2g-1), induced from its linear action on Euclidean space R^(2g). Generalizing corresponding results for linear groups, we…
A classical theorem, mainly due to Aleksandrov and Pogorelov, states that any Riemannian metric on $S^2$ with curvature $K>-1$ is induced on a unique convex surface in $H^3$. A similar result holds with the induced metric replaced by the…
In this paper, we prove gap results for constant mean curvature (CMC) surfaces. Firstly, we find a natural inequality for CMC surfaces which imply convexity for distance function. We then show that if $\Sigma$ is a complete, properly…
Measurements of the linear diameters of 12 nearby spiral galaxies with distances determined from primary indicators suggest that both the Milky Way Galaxy and M31 are in the middle of the range of sizes for such galaxies. By comparing the…
We introduce the moduli space of spectral curves of constant mean curvature (\cmc\hspace{-5pt}) cylinders of finite type in the round unit 3-sphere. The subset of spectral curves of mean-convex Alexandrov embedded cylinders is explicitly…
See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izbGXdjvK_I for a YouTube video showing part of the results in this paper.We will consider surfaces whose mean curvature at a point is a linear function of the square of the distance from that point to the…
If the n-dimensional unit sphere is covered by finitely many spherically convex bodies, then the sum of the inradii of these bodies is at least {\pi}. This bound is sharp, and the equality case is characterized.
An explicit formula for the generalized hyperbolic metric on the thrice--punctured sphere $\P \backslash \{z_1, z_2, z_3\}$ with singularities of order $\alpha_j \le 1$ at $z_j$ is obtained in all possible cases $\alpha_1+\alpha_2+\alpha_3…
We construct families of smooth functions $H\colon\mathbb{R}^{n+1}\to\mathbb{R}$ such that the Euclidean $(n+1)$-space is completely filled by not necessarily round hyperspheres of mean curvature $H$ at every point.
In 1966, P. G\"unther proved the following result: Given a continuous function $f$ on a compact surface $M$ of constant curvature -1 and its periodic lift $\tilde{f}$ to the universal covering, the hyperbolic plane, then the averages of the…
A classical result of A.D. Alexandrov states that a connected compact smooth $n-$dimensional manifold without boundary, embedded in $\Bbb R^{n+1}$, and such that its mean curvature is constant, is a sphere. Here we study the problem of…
We show scalar-mean curvature rigidity of warped products of round spheres of dimension at least 2 over compact intervals equipped with strictly log-concave warping functions. This generalizes earlier results of Cecchini-Zeidler to all…
