We show that the optimal packing of hard spheres in an infinitely long cylinder yields structures characterised by a screw symmetry. Each packing can be assembled by stacking a basic unit cell ad infinitum along the length of the cylinder…

Willmore surfaces are the extremals of the Willmore functional (possibly under a constraint on the conformal structure). With the characterization of Willmore surfaces by the (possibly perturbed) harmonicity of the mean curvature sphere…
We argue that the standard classification of isometric deformations into infinitesimal v.s. finite is inadequate for the study of compliant shell mechanisms. Indeed, many compliant shells, particularly ones that are periodically corrugated,…
