For a class of functions (called minimal Rad\'o functions) that arise naturally in minimal surface theory, we bound the number of interior critical points (counting multiplicity) in terms of the boundary data and the Euler characteristic of…

Clustering evaluation measures are frequently used to evaluate the performance of algorithms. However, most measures are not properly normalized and ignore some information in the inherent structure of clusterings. We model the relation…

The dense amalgam is an operation (introduced in arXiv:1410.4989) which to any finite collection of metrizable compacta associates canonically some new highly disconnected compact metrisable space in which embedded copies of the initial…

We prove a Central Limit Theorem for the Critical Points of Random Spherical Harmonics, in the High-Energy Limit. The result is a consequence of a deeper characterizations of the total number of critical points, which are shown to be…

We give explicit bounds on the intersection number between any curve on a tight multigeodesic and the two ending curves. We use this to construct all tight multigeodesics and so conclude that distances in the curve graph are computable. The…

In this paper, we study asymptotic behavior arising in inverse limit spaces of dendrites. In particular, the inverse limit is constructed with a single unimodal bonding map, for which points have unique itineraries and the critical point is…

We establish generalised fractional boundary Hardy-type inequality, in the spirit of Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequality for different values of $s$ and $p$ on various domains in $\mathbb{R}^d, ~ d \geq 1$. In particular, for Lipschitz…

Using critical point theory methods we undertake the existence and multiplicity of solutions for discrete anisotropic two-point boundary value problems.

We study the variational behavior of the total inverse mean curvature of curves with prescribed boundary in the half-plane. We characterize the existence of critical points with prescribed area. We show that such critical points are…

We prove a Morse index theorem for action functionals on paths that are allowed to reflect at a hypersurface (either in the interior or at the boundary of a manifold). Both fixed and periodic boundary conditions are treated.

We present some partial results on the general infrared behavior of bulk-critical 1-d quantum systems with boundary. We investigate whether the boundary entropy, s(T), is always bounded below as the temperature T decreases towards 0, and…

A Morse 2-function is a generic smooth map from a manifold M of arbitrary finite dimension to a surface B. Its critical set maps to an immersed collection of cusped arcs in B. The aim of this paper is to explain exactly when it is possible…

The existence of two geometrically distinct closed geodesics on an $n$-dimensional sphere $S^n$ with a non-reversible and bumpy Finsler metric was shown independently by Duan--Long [7] and the author [27]. We simplify the proof of this…

We show that the Riemann zeta function \zeta\ has only countably many self-intersections on the critical line, i.e., for all but countably many z in C the equation \zeta(1/2+it)=z has at most one solution t in R. More generally, we prove…

We prove up-to-constants bounds on the two-point function (i.e., point-to-point connection probabilities) for critical long-range percolation on the $d$-dimensional hierarchical lattice. More precisely, we prove that if we connect each pair…

The spatial suppression of order parameter fluctuations in a critical media produces Critical Casimir forces acting on confining surfaces. This scenario is realized in a critical binary mixture near the demixing transition point that…

Phenomenological theory of the Mott transition is presented. When the critical temperature of the Mott transition is much higher than the quantum degeneracy temperature, the transition is essentially described by the Ising universality…

We describe an elementary method for bounding a one-dimensional oscillatory integral in terms of an associated non-oscillatory integral. The bounds obtained are efficient in an appropriate sense and behave well under perturbations of the…

We propose a "decomposition method" to prove non-asymptotic bound for the convergence of empirical measures in various dual norms. The main point is to show that if one measures convergence in duality with sufficiently regular observables,…
