We first show that existence results due to Kazdan-Warner and Cruz-Vit\'orio can be extended to the category of manifolds with an isolated conical singularity. More precisely, we check that, under suitable conditions on the link manifold,…

We show that a capillary surface in a solid cone, that is, a surface that has constant mean curvature and the boundary of surface meets the boundary of the cone with a constant angle, is radially graphical if the mean curvature is…

We discuss upper bounds on the mutual information for disjoint spherical regions of the CFT vacuum. To prove our bounds, we utilize the modular nuclearity condition, which is in turn related to finiteness of the thermal partition function…

We prove that the boundary of an orbit space or more generally a leaf space of a singular Riemannian foliation is an Alexandrov space in its intrinsic metric, and that its lower curvature bound is that of the leaf space. A rigidity theorem…

We introduce a capillary Chambolle type scheme for mean curvature flow with prescribed contact angle. Our scheme includes a capillary functional instead of just the total variation. We show that the scheme is well-defined and has…

We study the Morse index of self-shrinkers for the mean curvature flow and, more generally, of $f$-minimal hypersurfaces in a weighted Euclidean space endowed with a convex weight. When the hypersurface is compact, we show that the index is…
