We extend vector configurations to more general objects that have nicer combinatorial and topological properties, called weighted pseudosphere arrangements. These are defined as a weighted variant of arrangements of pseudospheres, as in the…

Tubular neighborhoods play an important role in differential topology. We have applied these constructions to geometry of almost Hermitian manifolds. At first, we consider deformations of tensor structures on a normal tubular neighborhood…

In this paper, we consider a fixed metric space (possibly an oriented Riemannian manifold with boundary) with an increasing sequence of distance functions and a uniform upper bound on diameter. When the metric space endowed with the…

Let $M=\Sigma_1\times \Sigma_2$ be the product of two compact Riemannian manifolds of dimension $n\geq 2 $ and two, respectively. Let $\Sigma$ be the graph of a smooth map $f:\Sigma_1\mapsto \Sigma_2$, then $\Sigma$ is an $n$-dimensional…

Associated to every closed, embedded submanifold $N$ in a connected Riemannian manifold $M$, there is the distance function $d_N$ which measures the distance of a point in $M$ from $N$. We analyze the square of this function and show that…

Representing graphs as sets of node embeddings in certain curved Riemannian manifolds has recently gained momentum in machine learning due to their desirable geometric inductive biases, e.g., hierarchical structures benefit from hyperbolic…

The fundamental idea of embedding a network in a metric space is rooted in the principle of proximity preservation. Nodes are mapped into points of the space with pairwise distance that reflects their proximity in the network. Popular…

Learning faithful graph representations as sets of vertex embeddings has become a fundamental intermediary step in a wide range of machine learning applications. The quality of the embeddings is usually determined by how well the geometry…

The main point of this paper is that, under suitable conditions on the mean curvature and the Ricci curvature of the ambient space, we can extend Choi-Schoen's Compactness Theorem to compact embedded minimal surfaces to simple immersed…

Let $Z$ be a smooth compact $(n+1)$-manifold. We study smooth embeddings and immersions $\beta: M \to Z$ of compact or closed $n$-manifolds $M$ such that the normal line bundle $\nu^\beta$ is trivialized. For a fixed $Z$, we introduce an…

For any compact Lie group $G$ and any $n$ we construct a smooth $G$-manifold $U_n(G)$ such that any smooth $n$-dimensional $G$-manifold can be embedded in $U_n(G)$ with a trivial normal bundle. Furthermore, we show that such embeddings are…
