It is proved that if there exists a positive and continuous function $f$ on an $n$-dimensional complex manifold $X$, $q$-convex with corners outside a compact set $K\subset X$ and which exhausts $X$ from below, then…

We develop the theory of probabilistic variants of the one-category and diagonal topological complexity, which bound the classical LS-category and topological complexity from below. Unlike any other classical or probabilistic invariants,…

The bounded proper forcing axiom BPFA is the statement that for any family of aleph_1 many maximal antichains of a proper forcing notion, each of size aleph_1, there is a directed set meeting all these antichains. A regular cardinal kappa…

We prove the existence of smooth closed hypersurfaces of prescribed mean curvature homeomorphic to $S^n$ for small $n, n\le6$, provided there are barriers.

We show that there exist infinite-dimensional quasi-flats in the compactly supported Hamiltonian diffeomorphism group of the Liouville domain, with respect to the spectral norm, if and only if the symplectic cohomology of this Liouville…

Let (M,g,J) be a compact Hermitian manifold with a smooth boundary. Let $\Delta_p$ and $D_p$ be the realizations of the real and complex Laplacians on p forms with either Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions. We generalize previous…

Given a fixed-point free compact holomorphic self-map $f$ on a bounded symmetric domain $D$, which may be infinite dimensional, we establish the existence of a family $\{H(\xi, \lambda)\}_{\lambda >0}$ of convex $f$-invariant domains at a…

We study the local classification problem for differential Pfaffian forms on a supermanifold $M$ that are homogeneous with respect to a given homogeneity structure on $M$. The most familiar examples of homogeneity structures are those…

Let $G$ be a locally compact abelian topological group. For locally bounded measurable functions $\varphi: G\to\Bbb {C}$ we discuss notions of spectra for $\varphi$ relative to subalgebras of $L^{1}(G)$. In particular we study polynomials…

By virtue of barrier arguments we prove $C^\alpha$-regularity up to the boundary for the weak solutions of a non-local nonlinear problem driven by the fractional $p$-Laplacian operator. The equation is boundedly inhomogeneous and the…

We use spectral invariants in Lagrangian Floer theory in order to show that there exist \emph{isometric} embeddings of normed linear spaces (finite or infinite dimensional, depending on the case) into the space of Hamiltonian deformations…

We study the topology of a Ricci limit space $(X,p)$, which is the Gromov-Hausdorff limit of a sequence of complete $n$-manifolds $(M_i, p_i)$ with $\mathrm{Ric}\ge -(n-1)$. Our first result shows that, if $M_i$ has Ricci bounded covering…

Let $\Omega$ be a connected bounded domain on the complex plane, $S$ be its boundary, which is closed, star-shaped, $C^1$-smooth, and $H(\Omega)$ is the set of analytic (holomorphic) in $\Omega$ functions. The aim of this paper is to prove…

We analyze the limit of the p-form Laplacian under a collapse, with bounded sectional curvature and bounded diameter, to a smooth limit space. As an application, we characterize when the p-form Laplacian has small positive eigenvalues in a…

In this paper we study $L_p$-norm spherical copulas for arbitrary $p \in [1,\infty]$ and arbitrary dimensions. The study is motivated by a conjecture that these distributions lead to a sharp bound for the value of a certain generalized mean…

Let $M, M'$ be smooth, real analytic hypersurfaces of finite type in ${\mbf C^n}$ and $\h f$ a holomorphic correspondence (not necessarily proper) that is defined on one side of $M$, extends continuously up to $M$ and maps $M$ to $M'$. It…

Circles of a single size can pack together densely in a hexagonal lattice, but adding in size variety disrupts the order of those packings. We conduct simulations which generate dense random packings of circles with specified size…

Let (M,g) be a compact Einstein manifold with smooth boundary. We consider the spectrum of the p form valued Laplacian with respect to a suitable boundary condition. We show that certain geometric properties of the boundary may be…

We introduce a new map between configuration spaces of points in a background manifold - the replication map - and prove that it is a homology isomorphism in a range with certain coefficients. This is particularly of interest when the…
