Randomized smoothing is a widely adopted technique for optimizing nonsmooth objective functions. However, its efficiency analysis typically relies on global Lipschitz continuity, a condition rarely met in practical applications. To address…

We examine some common features of minimal surfaces, nonzero constant mean curvature surfaces and marginally outer trapped surfaces, concerning their stability and rigidity, and consider some applications to Riemannian geometry and general…

Here we consider degenerations of stable spin curves for a fixed smoothing of a non-stable curve: we are able to give enumerative results and a description of limits of stable spin curves. We give a geometrically meaningful definition of…

We construct a simply connected minimal complex surface of general type with $p_g=0$ and $K^2=2$ which has an involution such that the minimal resolution of the quotient by the involution is a simply connected minimal complex surface of…

It is shown that time-harmonic motions of spherical and toroidal surfaces can be deformed non-locally without loosing the existence of infinitely many constants of the motion.

We study normal finite abelian covers of smooth varieties. In particular we establish combinatorial conditions so that a normal finite abelian cover of a smooth variety is Gorenstein or locally complete intersection.

In [4] Bierstone and Parusinski proved the existence of global smoothings for closed subanalytic sets, both in an embedded and a non-embedded sense. In particular, in the non-embedded desingularization procedure the authors construct…

This paper concerns with deformations of noncompact complex hyperbolic manifolds (with locally Bergman metric), varieties of discrete representations of their fundamental groups into $PU(n,1)$ and the problem of (quasiconformal) stability…

We explicitly construct a $V$-normal crossing Gorenstein canonical model of the relative symmetric products of a local semistable degeneration of surfaces without a triple point by means of toric geometry. Using this model, we calculate the…

We study properties of stable, strictly stable and locally outermost marginally outer trapped surfaces in spacelike hypersurfaces of spacetimes possessing certain symmetries such as isometries, homotheties and conformal Killings. We first…

One primary objective in submanifold geometry is to discover fascinating and significant classical examples of $H_1$. In this paper which relies on the theory we established in [Adv. Math. 405 (2022), 08514, 50 pages, arXiv:2101.11780] and…

Einstein equations are addressed with the energy-momentum tensor that appears if the equations under discussion are required to possess conformal invariance. It is proved that thus derived equations (equations of conformally invariant…

Minimal surfaces are ubiquitous in nature. Here they are considered as geometric objects that bear a deformation content. By refining the resolution of the surface deformation gradient afforded by the polar decomposition theorem, we…

We consider a quantum particle constrained to a curved layer of a constant width built over an infinite smooth surface. We suppose that the latter is a locally deformed plane and that the layer has the hard-wall boundary. Under this…

In this paper, we investigate the geometric invariant properties of a normal curve on a smooth immersed surface under conformal transformation. We obtain an invariant-sufficient condition for the conformal image of a normal curve. We also…

We discuss the evidence for and implications of a conjecture that the universal abelian cover of a Q-Gorenstein surface singularity with finite local homology (i.e., the singularity link is a Q-homology sphere) is a complete intersection…

This note gives a generalization of spherical twists, and describe the autoequivalences associated to certain non-spherical objects. Typically these are obtained by deforming the structure sheaves of (0,-2)-curves on threefolds, or…

We develop a global theory for complete hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ whose mean curvature is given as a prescribed function of its Gauss map. This theory extends the usual one of constant mean curvature hypersurfaces in…

The only restriction on the values of the elasticity parameters is the stability condition. Within this condition, we examine Christoffel equation for nondetached $qP$ slowness surfaces in transversely isotropic media. If the $qP$ slowness…

The first part of this paper considers higher order CR invariants of three dimensional hypersurfaces of finite type. Using a full normal form we give a complete characterization of hypersurfaces with trivial local automorphism group, and…
