In this paper, we prove the existence of energy minimizers in each free homotopy class of maps between polyhedra with target space without focal points. Our proof involves a careful study of some geometric properties of riemannian polhyedra…
Given a homogenous Poisson point process in the plane, we prove that it is possible to partition the plane into bounded connected cells of equal volume, in a translation-invariant way, with each point of the process contained in exactly one…
This paper provides the first variational proof of the existence of periodic nonlocal-CMC surfaces. These are nonlocal analogues of the classical Delaunay cylinders. More precisely, we show the existence of a set in $\mathbb{R}^n$ which is…
A class of exact membrane solutions is quantized.
We establish a comparison principle providing accurate upper bounds for the modulus of vector valued minimizers of an energy functional, associated when the potential is smooth, to elliptic gradient systems. Our assumptions are very mild:…
We consider the asymptotic behavior of properly embedded minimal surfaces in the product of the hyperbolic plane with the line, taking into account the fact that there is more than one natural compactification of this space. This provides a…
In this letter, elastic properties of highly anisotropic cellular poly(propylene) films are reported. The material shows peculiar elastic properties compared to other foams in the literature. The data is displayed as the relative Young's…
In (the surface of) a convex polytope P^n in R^n+1, for small prescribed volume, geodesic balls about some vertex minimize perimeter. This revision corrects a mistake in the mass bound argument in the proof of Theorem 3.8.
Let $(M,g)$ be an asymptotically flat $3$-manifold containing no closed embedded minimal surfaces. We prove that for every point $p\in M$ there exists a complete properly embedded minimal plane in $M$ containing $p$.
We prove the existence of global minimal models for rational morphisms $\phi:{\mathbb P}^N\rightarrow{\mathbb P}^N$ of projective space defined over the field of fractions of a principal ideal domain.
The aim of this note is twofold: to give a short proof of the results in [S. Larson, A bound for the perimeter of inner parallel bodies, J. Funct. Anal. 271 (2016), 610-619] and [G. Domokos and Z. L\'angi, The isoperimetric quotient of a…
We establish isosystolic inequalities for a class of manifolds which includes the aspherical manifolds. In particular, we relate the systolic volume of aspherical manifolds first to their minimal entropy, then to the algebraic entropy of…
We show existence of solutions to the least gradient problem on the plane for boundary data in $BV(\partial\Omega)$. We also provide an example of a function $f \in L^1(\partial\Omega) \backslash (C(\partial\Omega) \cup…
An approximate model of a spacetime foam is presented. It is supposed that in the spacetime foam each quantum handle is like to an electric dipole and therefore the spacetime foam is similar to a dielectric. If we neglect of linear sizes of…
We give an explicit formula for the membrane potential of cells in terms of the intracellular and extracellular ionic concentrations, and derive equations for the ionic currents that flow through channels, exchangers and electrogenic pumps…
We prove that every sectional Anosov flow (or, equivalently, every sectional-hyperbolic attracting set of a flow) on a compact manifold has a periodic orbit. This extends the previous three-dimensional result obtained in [Existence of…
We introduce a local version of contact homology for an isolated periodic orbit of the Reeb flow and prove that its rank is uniformly bounded for isolated iterations. Several applications are obtained, including a generalization of…
We study the equilibrium shape of liquid drops minimizing the fractional perimeter under the action of a potential energy. We prove, with a quantitative estimate, that the small volume minimizers are convex and uniformly close to a ball.
In this paper, we develop a general existence theory for properly embedded minimal surfaces with free boundary in any compact Riemannian 3-manifold $M$ with boundary $\partial M$. The main feature of our result is that no convexity…
Closed hyperbolic manifolds are proven to minimize volume over all Alexandrov spaces with curvature bounded below by -1 in the same bilipschitz class. As a corollary compact convex cores with totally geodesic boundary are proven to minimize…
