We provide sharp stability estimates for the Alexandrov Soap Bubble Theorem in the hyperbolic space. The closeness to a single sphere is quantified in terms of the dimension, the measure of the hypersurface and the radius of the touching…
We study the double bubble problem with perimeter taken with respect to the $\ell_1$ norm on $\mathbb{R}^2$. We give an elementary proof for the existence of minimizing sets for any volume ratio parameter $0<\alpha\le1$ by direct comparison…
The bellows conjecture claims that the volume of any flexible polyhedron of dimension 3 or higher is constant during the flexion. The bellows conjecture was proved for flexible polyhedra in the Euclidean spaces of dimensions 3 and higher,…
Regular polygons are characterized as area-constrained critical points of the perimeter functional with respect to particular families of perturbations in the class of polygons with a fixed number of sides. We also review recent results in…
A very fundamental geometric problem on finite systems of spheres was independently phrased by Kneser (1955) and Poulsen (1954). According to their well-known conjecture if a finite set of balls in Euclidean space is repositioned so that…
We study the double bubble problem where the perimeter is taken with respect to the hexagonal norm, i.e. the norm whose unit circle in $\mathbb{R}^2$ is the regular hexagon. We provide an elementary proof for the existence of minimizing…
We utilize total-internal reflection to isolate the two-dimensional `surface foam' formed at the planar boundary of a three-dimensional sample. The resulting images of surface Plateau borders are consistent with Plateau's laws for a truly…
Let M be a closed minimal hypersurface in 5-dimensional Euclidean sphere with constant nonnegative scalar curvature. We prove that, if the sum of the cubes of all principal curvatures and the number of distinct principal curvatures are…
We propose a 'geometric Chevalley-Warning' conjecture, that is a motivic extension of the Chevalley-Warning theorem in number theory. It is equivalent to a particular case of a recent conjecture of F. Brown and O.Schnetz. In this paper, we…
We have studied the quantum Liouville theory on the Riemann sphere with n>3 punctures. While considering the theory on the Riemann surfaces with n=4 punctures, the quantum theory near an arbitrary but fixed puncture can be obtained via…
In 1993 Foisy et al. proved that the optimal Euclidean planar double bubble---the least-perimeter way to enclose and separate two given areas---is three circular arcs meeting at 120 degrees. We consider the plane with density $r^p$, joining…
In this paper, we proved the Normal Scalar Curvature Conjecture and the Bottcher-Wenzel Conjecture. We also established some new pinching theorems for minimal submanifolds in spheres.
Numerical simulation of bubble dynamics and cavitation is challenging; even the seemingly simple problem of a collapsing spherical bubble is difficult to compute accurately with a general, three-dimensional, compressible, multicomponent…
The Alexandrov Soap Bubble Theorem asserts that the distance spheres are the only embedded closed connected hypersurfaces in space forms having constant mean curvature. The theorem can be extended to more general functions of the principal…
Bubbles are point-like regular solutions of the higher-dimensional Kaluza-Klein equations that appear as naked singularities in four dimensions. We analyze all such possible solutions in 5D Kaluza-Klein theory that are static and…
In 1982, S.-T. Yau conjectured that there exist four distinct embedded minimal two-spheres in any manifold diffeomorphic to $S^3$. Wang-Zhou confirmed this conjecture for Riemannian three-spheres when the metric is bumpy or has positive…
We discuss various scattering properties of non-topological solitons, Q-balls, on potential obstructions in (1+1) and (2+1) dimensions. These obstructions, barriers and holes, are inserted into the potential of the theory via the coupling…
We prove that the four-dimensional round sphere contains a minimally embedded hypertorus, as well as infinitely many, pairwise non-isometric, immersed ones. Our analysis also yields infinitely many, pairwise non-isometric, minimally…
We prove a Tb theorem on quasimetric spaces equipped with what we call an upper doubling measure. This is a property that encompasses both the doubling measures and those satisfying the upper power bound \mu(B(x,r)) \le Cr^d. Our spaces are…
The $n$-dimensional hypercube graph $Q_n$ has as vertices all subsets of $\{1, \ldots, n\}$, and an edge between any two sets that differ in a single element. The Ruskey-Savage conjecture states that every matching of the $n$-dimensional…
