We develop a simple framework for implementing a type of path integral "surgery" via correlated averaging over codimension-one defects/extended operators. This technique is used to construct replica manifolds by effectively cutting and…

Given a Riemannian manifold $N^n$ and ${\cal Z}\in \mathfrak{X}(N)$, an isometric immersion $f\colon M^m\to N^n$ is said to have the \emph{constant ratio property with respect to ${\cal Z}$} either if the tangent component ${\cal Z}^T_f$ of…

Let $F:\Sigma^n \times [0,T)\to \R^{n+m}$ be a family of compact immersed submanifolds moving by their mean curvature vectors. We show the Gauss maps $\gamma:(\Sigma^n, g_t)\to G(n, m)$ form a harmonic heat flow with respect to the…

We propose a structure-preserving parametric finite element method (SP-PFEM) for discretizing the surface diffusion of a closed curve in two dimensions (2D) or surface in three dimensions (3D). Here the "structure-preserving" refers to…
