Topology and nonlinearity are deeply connected. However, whether topological effects can arise solely from the structure of nonlinear interaction terms, and the nature of the resulting topological phases, remain to large extent open…
The manifold hypothesis, which assumes that data lies on or close to an unknown manifold of low intrinsic dimension, is a staple of modern machine learning research. However, recent work has shown that real-world data exhibits distinct…
This is an expanded and revised version of our geometrical analysis of the strong coupling phase of 4D simplicial quantum gravity. The main differences with respect to the former version is a full discussion of singular triangulations with…
We study finite-energy blow-ups for prescribed Morse scalar curvatures in both the subcritical and the critical regime. After general considerations on Palais-Smale sequences we determine precise blow up rates for subcritical solutions: in…
In this work, we consider the singular set in the thin obstacle problem with weight $|x_{n+1}|^a$ for $a\in (-1, 1)$, which arises as the local extension of the obstacle problem for the fractional Laplacian (a non-local problem). We develop…
In characteristic zero, we construct logarithmic resolution of singularities, with simple normal crossings exceptional divisor, using weighted blow-ups.
The present paper aims at representing an improvement of the result in [2], where a strong unique continuation property and a description of the local behaviour around the edge of a crack for solutions to an elliptic problem are…
We investigate plane curves intersecting in at most two unibranched points to study the algebraic exceptional set appearing in standard conjectures of diophantine and hyperbolic geometry. Our first result compares the local geometry of two…
Heterotic orbifold models are promising candidates for models with MSSM like spectra. But orbifolds only correspond to a special place in moduli space, the bigger picture is described by the moduli space of Calabi-Yau spaces. In this talk…
Topological defects are singularities in material fields that play a vital role across a range of systems: from cosmic microwave background polarization to superconductors, and biological materials. Although topological defects and their…
We study the notion of singular tropical hypersurfaces of any dimension. We characterize the singular points in terms of tropical Euler derivatives and we give an algorithm to compute all singular points. We also describe non-transversal…
Let $C$ be a compact complex curve included in a non-singular complex surface such that the normal bundle is topologically trivial. Ueda studied complex analytic properties of a neighborhood of $C$ when $C$ is non-singular or is a rational…
By applying a singular perturbation approach, canard limit cycles exhibited by a general family of singularly perturbed planar piecewise linear (PWL) differential systems are analyzed. The performed study involves both hyperbolic and…
Boundary equilibria bifurcation (BEB) arises in piecewise-smooth systems when an equilibrium collides with a discontinuity set under parameter variation. Singularly perturbed BEB refers to a bifurcation arising in singular perturbation…
We derive local asymptotics of solutions to second order elliptic equations at the edge of a $(N-1)$-dimensional crack, with homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions prescribed on both sides of the crack. A combination of blow-up analysis…
Our previous papers introduce topological notions of normal crossings symplectic divisor and variety, show that they are equivalent, in a suitable sense, to the corresponding geometric notions, and establish a topological smoothability…
The symmetry-constrained topological invariant fails to explain the emergence of the special edge modes when system does not preserve discrete symmetries. The inversion or chiral symmetry broken SSH model is an example of one such system…
we investigate developable cones (d-cones) topology and mechanical properties. We found that for a sample of a finite thickness the singularity is never pointlike but has a spatial extension in form of a crescent. The variations of the…
Blowing up a point p in a manifold M builds a new manifold M' in which p is replaced by the projectivization of the tangent space of M at p. This well-known operation also applies to fixed points of diffeomorphisms, yielding continuous…
We investigate the interaction between two cracks propagating in a thin sheet. Two different experimental geometries allow us to tear sheets by imposing an out-of-plane shear loading. We find that two tears converge along self-similar paths…
