The aim of this study is to provide a perspective to help understand the singular average operator over polynomial hypersurfaces. In particular, this perspective will provide brevity and the possibility of generalizing previous results…
A horospherical torus about a cusp of a hyperbolic manifold inherits a Euclidean similarity structure, called a cusp shape. We bound the change in cusp shape when the hyperbolic structure of the manifold is deformed via cone deformation…
This paper is devoted to the study of mechanical systems subjected to external forces in the framework of symplectic geometry. We obtain a Noether's theorem for Lagrangian systems with external forces, among other results regarding…
Confined electronic states and optical transitions in 3D topological insulator nanoparticles have been studied in the literature, assuming idealized geometries such as spheres or infinitely long cylinders, that allow to obtain analytical…
We develop a unified geometric framework for dissipative mechanical systems based on uniform $q$-contact manifolds, which provide an extended phase space equipped with multiple contact $1$-forms. Within this setting, we construct both…
We define a norm on the homology of a foliated manifold, which refines and majorizes the usual Gromov norm on homology. This norm depends in an upper semi-continuous way on the underlying foliation, in the geometric topology, and can…
For a compact, orientable, irreducible 3-manifold with toroidal boundary that is not the product of a torus and an interval or a cable space, each boundary torus has a finite set of slopes such that, if avoided, the Thurston norm of a Dehn…
We establish a general slice theorem for the action of a locally convex Lie group on a locally convex manifold, which generalizes the classical slice theorem of Palais to infinite dimensions. We discuss two important settings under which…
We study the topology of polynomial functions by deforming them generically. We explain how the non-conservation of the total ``quantity'' of singularity in the neighbourhood of infinity is related to the variation of topology in certain…
We give a criterion to test geometric properties such as Whitney equisingularity and Thom's $a_f$ condition for new families of (possibly non-isolated) hypersurface singularities that "behave well" with respect to their Newton diagrams. As…
We consider natural algebraic differential operations acting on geometric quantities over smooth manifolds. We introduce a method of study and classification of such operations, called IT-reduction. It reduces the study of natural…
The special geometry ($(t,{\bar t})$-equations) for twisted $N=2$ strings are derived as consistency conditions of a new contact term algebra. The dilaton appears in the contact terms of topological and antitopological operators. The…
We introduce a polynomial invariant of graphs on surfaces, $P_G$, generalizing the classical Tutte polynomial. Topological duality on surfaces gives rise to a natural duality result for $P_G$, analogous to the duality for the Tutte…
It is conjectured that every cusped hyperbolic 3-manifold admits a geometric triangulation, i.e. it is decomposed into positive volume ideal hyperbolic tetrahedra. Here, we show that sufficiently highly twisted knots admit a geometric…
This paper contains a purely topological theorem and a geometric application. The topological theorem states that if M is a simple closed orientable 3-manifold such that \pi_1(M) contains a genus g surface group and H_1(M;Z/2Z) has rank at…
A fundamental task of statistical physics is to predict the system's statistical properties and compare them with observable data. We formulate the theory of dipolaron solutions and analyze the screening effects for permanent and…
Polynomials which afford nonnegative, real-rooted symmetric decompositions have been investigated recently in algebraic, enumerative and geometric combinatorics. Br\"and\'en and Solus have given sufficient conditions under which the image…
Efficient approximation of geodesics is crucial for practical algorithms on manifolds. Here we introduce a class of retractions on submanifolds, induced by a foliation of the ambient manifold. They match the projective retraction to the…
We use a variational principle to prove an existence and uniqueness theorem for planar weighted Delaunay triangulations (with non-intersecting site-circles) with prescribed combinatorial type and circle intersection angles. Such weighted…
The van der Waerden's theorem reads that an equilateral pentagon in Euclidean 3-space $\Bbb E^3$ with all diagonals of the same length is necessarily planar and its vertex set coincides with the vertex set of some convex regular pentagon.…
