In analogy with Almgren's Theorem for area minimizing currents of general dimension and codimension, we prove that an $m$-dimensional semicalibrated current in a $(n+m)$-dimensional $C^{3,\varepsilon_0}$ manifold, semicalibrated by a…
The classical Arnold-Liouville theorem describes the geometry of an integrable Hamiltonian system near a regular level set of the moment map. Our results describe it near a nondegenerate singular level set: a tubular neighborhood of a…
We discuss a PL analogue of Morse theory for PL manifolds. There are several notions of regular and critical points. A point is homologically regular if the homology does not change when passing through its level, it is strongly regular if…
We prove that every mod 2 integral cycle $T$ in a Riemannian manifold $\mathcal{M}$ can be approximated in flat norm by a cycle which is a smooth submanifold $\Sigma$ of nearly the same area, up to a singular set of codimension 3; in…
We prove that every locally Hamiltonian graph with $n\ge 3$ vertices and possibly with multiple edges has at least $3n-6$ edges with equality if and only if it triangulates the sphere. As a consequence, every edge-maximal embedding of a…
We generalize the following result of White: Suppose $N$ is a compact, strictly convex domain in $\RR^3$ with smooth boundary. Let $\Sigma$ be a compact 2-manifold with boundary. Then a generic smooth curve $\Gamma\cong \partial\Sigma$ in…
This paper is concerned with the problem of constructing a smooth Levi-flat hypersurface locally or globally attached to a real codimension two submanifold in $\mathbb C^{n+1}$, or more generally in a Stein manifold, with elliptic CR…
Let $M$ be an $n$-dimensional complete simply connected Riemannian manifold with sectional curvature bounded above by a nonpositive constant $-\kappa^2$. Using the cone total curvature $TC(\Gamma)$ of a graph $\Gamma$ which was introduced…
In the material science literature we find two continuum models for crystalline defects: (i) A body with (finite) isolated defects is typically modeled as a Riemannian manifold with singularities, and (ii) a body with continuously…
In this paper, we will study the partial regularity theorem for stationary harmonic maps from a Riemannian manifold into a Lorentzian manifold. For a weakly stationary harmonic map $(u,v)$ from a smooth bounded open domain…
A theorem of David and Jerison asserts that harmonic measure is absolutely continuous with respect to surface measure in NTA domains with Ahlfors regular boundaries. We prove that this fails in high dimensions if we relax the Ahlfors…
We introduce a compactification of the space of simple positive divisors on a Riemann surface, as well as a compactification of the universal family of punctured surfaces above this space. These are real manifolds with corners. We then…
For any $Q\in\{\frac{3}{2},2,\frac{5}{2},3,\dotsc\}$, we establish a structure theory for the class $\mathcal{S}_Q$ of stable codimension 1 stationary integral varifolds admitting no classical singularities of density $<Q$. This theory…
We prove that for a residual (and hence dense) subset $\mathcal{G}$ of Riemannian metrics on $S^{n+1}$ in the $C^{3}$ topology, no area-minimizing integral $n$-current that is a boundary admits a singular tangent cone which is linearly…
We formulate a conjecture that arithmetic locally symmetric manifolds have simple homotopy type, and prove it for the non-compact case. More precisely, we show that, for any symmetric space S of non-compact type without Euclidean de Rham…
In this paper, we formulate and prove a general compactness theorem for harmonic maps using Deligne-Mumford moduli space and families of curves. The main theorem shows that given a sequence of harmonic maps over a sequence of complex…
We consider stable minimal surfaces of genus 1 in Euclidean space and in Riemannian manifolds. Under the condition of covering stability (all finite covers are stable) we show that a genus 1 finite total curvature minimal surface in…
We show that the upper bounds for the $L^2$-norms of $L^1$-normalized quasimodes that we obtained in [9] are always sharp on any compact space form. This allows us to characterize compact manifolds of constant sectional curvature using the…
We construct area-minimizing submanifolds with fractal singular sets on compact Riemannian manifolds. Thus, we settle a conjecture by Almgren and our answer is sharp dimensionwise. Furthermore, we can prescribe arbitrarily the strata in the…
We prove that 2 dimensional Integral currents (i.e. integer multiplicity 2 dimensional rectifiable currents) which are almost complex cycles in an almost complex manifold admitting locally a compatible symplectic form are smooth surfaces…
