We introduce a family of variational functionals for spinor fields on a compact Riemann surface $M$ that can be used to find close-to-conformal immersions of $M$ into $\mathbb{R}^3$ in a prescribed regular homotopy class. Numerical…

Aim of this short note is to show that a dimension-free Harnack inequality on an infinitesimally Hilbertian metric measure space where the heat semigroup admits an integral representation in terms of a kernel is suffcient to deduce a sharp…

A fundamental problem in differential geometry is to characterize intrinsic metrics on a two-dimensional Riemannian manifold ${\mathcal M}^2$ which can be realized as isometric immersions into $\R^3$. This problem can be formulated as…

We investigate the second principal term in the expansion of metrics $c(n)t^{(n+2)/2}g_t$ induced by heat kernel embedding into $L^2$ on a compact $RCD(K, N)$ space. We prove that the divergence free property of this term in the weak,…

Computing a consensus object from a set of given objects is a core problem in machine learning and pattern recognition. One popular approach is to formulate it as an optimization problem using the generalized median. Previous methods like…

The paper is devoted to a local heat kernel, which is a special part of the standard heat kernel. Locality means that all considerations are produced in an open convex set of a smooth Riemannian manifold. We study such properties and…
