We discuss geometric properties of covers of closed hyperbolic manifolds of dimension $n\geq 3$, branched along a totally geodesic codimension two submanifold $\Sigma$. The results are mostly known to the experts but hard to find in the…
The conformational complexity of linear polymers far exceeds that of point-like atoms and molecules. Polymers can bend, twist, even become knotted. Thus they may also display a much richer phase structure than point particles. But it is not…
Lattice-field calculations are performed on a Gaussian polymer chain confined to move within the region defined by two fused spheres. The results of the calculations are in accord with recent experimental measurements and computer…
In the paper, the planar polynomial geometric interpolation of data points is revisited. Simple sufficient geometric conditions that imply the existence of the interpolant are derived in general. They require data points to be convex in a…
For a given branched covering between closed connected surfaces, there are several easy relations one can establish between the Euler characteristics of the surfaces, their orientability, the total degree, and the local degrees at the…
We confirm, in dimension two, Blocki's conjectures on sharp lower bounds for Bergman kernels of tube domains. To that end, we verify a broader class of $L^p$-Mahler conjectures due to Berndtsson and the authors, where $p=1$ are Blocki's…
In this paper, we investigate the dimension theory of the one parameter family of Okamoto's function. We compute the Hausdorff, box-counting and Assouad dimensions of the graph for a typical choice of parameter. Furthermore, we study the…
This is the last part of a series of five articles published in Journal of Rheology (Maier et al. (1998), Thimm et al. (1999a), Thimm et al. (2000a), Thimm et al. (2000c)) in which progress on the determination of binary molecular weight…
For directed polymers, the shape function computes the limiting average energy accrued by paths with a given average slope. We prove that, for a large family of directed polymer models in discrete time and continuous space in dimension…
We prove an analogue of Thurston's h-principle for $2$-dimensional foliations on manifolds of dimension bigger or equal to $4$, in the presence of a fiber-wise non-degenerate $2$-form. This helps us understand the flexibility of rank $2$…
In this article we introduce the topological study of codimension-1 foliations which admit contact or symplectic structures on the leaves. A parametric existence h-principle for foliated contact structures is provided for any cooriented…
Conformational properties of regular dendrimers and more general hyperbranched polymer stars with Gaussian statistics for the spacer chains between branching points are revisited numerically. We investigate the scaling for asymptotically…
For one parameter subgroup action on a finite volume homogeneous space, we consider the set of points admitting divergent on average trajectories. We show that the Hausdorff dimension of this set is strictly less than the manifold dimension…
Performing both right and left multiplication operations using general regular matrix polynomials, which need not be monic and may possess leading coefficients of arbitrary rank, on a rectangular matrix of measures associated with mixed…
In this article, we prove a Kahler extension theorem for real Kahler submanifolds of codimension 4 and rank at least 5. Our main theorem states that such a manifold is a holomorphic hypersurface in another real Kahler submanifold of…
This paper demonstrates a duality between the non-robustness of polynomial time dimension and the existence of one-way functions. Polynomial-time dimension (denoted $\mathrm{cdim}_\mathrm{P}$) quantifies the density of information of…
Let $p$ and $q$ be anisotropic quadratic forms of dimension $\geq 2$ over a field $F$. In a recent article, we formulated a conjecture describing the general constraints which the dimensions of $p$ and $q$ impose on the isotropy index of…
We introduce a model for particles that are extremely polydisperse in size compared to monodisperse and bidisperse systems. In two dimensions (2D), size polydispersity inhibits crystallization and increases packing fraction at jamming…
We continue the study initiated by H. S. Shapiro on Fischer decompositions of entire functions, showing that such decomposition exist in a weak sense (we do not prove uniqueness) under hypotheses regarding the order of the entire function…
A simple heuristic argument to understand the existence of branch points in the unphysical sheet for pi-N scattering amplitude is presented. It is based on a hypothesis that the singularity structure of the pi-N scattering amplitude is a…
