We present several rigidity results for Riemannian manifolds $(M^n,g)$ with scalar curvature $S \ge -n(n-1)$ (or $S\ge 0$), and having compact boundary $N$ satisfying a related mean curvature inequality. The proofs make use of results on…

Assuming the Generalised Riemann Hypothesis (GRH), we show that for all k, there exist polynomials with coefficients in $\MA$ having no arithmetic circuits of size O(n^k) over the complex field (allowing any complex constant). We also build…
Many real-world datasets live on high-dimensional Stiefel and Grassmannian manifolds, $V_k(\mathbb{R}^N)$ and $Gr(k, \mathbb{R}^N)$ respectively, and benefit from projection onto lower-dimensional Stiefel and Grassmannian manifolds. In this…

Computations on a manifold often involve constructing an operator on the tangent space and computing its inverse, which can be time-consuming in many applications. In order to reduce the computational costs and preserve the benign…
Let $\mathcal{F}_h^i(k,n)$ be the $i$th ordered configuration space of all distinct points $H_1,\ldots,H_h$ in the Grassmannian $Gr(k,n)$ of $k$-dimensional subspaces of $\mc^n$, whose sum is a subspace of dimension $i$. We prove that…
We study the standard quadratic optimization problem over the simplex when the objective matrix is drawn from the Gaussian Orthogonal Ensemble (GOE). Let \(\kappa_n\) denote the support size of the almost surely unique global optimizer. We…

The symplectic Stiefel manifold, denoted by $\mathrm{Sp}(2p,2n)$, is the set of linear symplectic maps between the standard symplectic spaces $\mathbb{R}^{2p}$ and $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$. When $p=n$, it reduces to the well-known set of $2n\times…
