Let $(X,g)$ be a compact $n$-dimensional smooth Riemannian manifold with a lower bound on the average of the lowest $n-p$ eigenvalues of the curvature operator and the diameter of $X$ is bounded above by $D>0$. In this article, we…

We study some aspects of 2d supersymmetric sigma models on orbifolds. It turns out that independently of whether the 2d QFT is conformal the operator products of twist operators are non-singular, suggesting that massive (non-conformal)…

We construct the first examples of manifolds, the simplest one being the product of S^3, S^4, and R^5, which admit infinitely many complete nonnegatively curved metrics with pairwise nonhomeomorphic souls.

In this note we prove that a four-dimensional compact oriented half-confor\-mally flat Riemannian manifold $M^4$ is topologically $\mathbb{S}^{4}$ or $\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^{2},$ provided that the sectional curvatures all lie in the interval…

We prove the following results: An almost Hermitian manifold of indefinite metric is of pointwise constant holomorphic sectional curvature if the holomorphic sectional curvature is bounded from above and from below. If the antiholomorphic…

We establish coupled fixed point theorems for contraction involving rational expressions in partially ordered metric spaces.

We obtain new optimal estimates for the $L^2(M)\to L^q(M)$, $q\in (2,q_c]$, $q_c=2(n+1)/(n-1)$, operator norms of spectral projection operators associated with spectral windows $[\lambda,\lambda+\delta(\lambda)]$, with…

Brain representations of curvature may be formed on the basis of either vision or touch. Experimental and theoretical work by the author and her colleagues has shown that the processing underlying such representations directly depends on…

In the geometric approach to define complexity, operator complexity is defined as the distance on the operator space. In this paper, based on the analogy with the circuit complexity, the operator size is adopted as the metric of the…

We show that although closed $\widetilde{\Bbb{SL}}\times\Bbb{E}^n$-manifolds do not admit metrics of nonpositive sectional curvature, the arguments of Farrell and Jones can be extended to show that such manifolds are topologically rigid, if…

Function space topologies are developed for EC(Y,Z), the class of equi-continuous mappings from a topological space Y to a uniform space Z. Properties such as splittingness, admissibility etc. are defined for such spaces. The net theoretic…

We establish a link between rational homotopy theory and the problem which vector bundles admit complete Riemannian metric of nonnegative sectional curvature. As an application, we show for a large class of simply-connected nonnegatively…

We construct the differential geometry of smooth manifolds equipped with an algebraic curvature map acting as an area measure. Area metric geometry provides a spacetime structure suitable for the discussion of gauge theories and strings,…

The analysis of mathematical structure of the method of operator manifold guides our discussion. The latter is a still wider generalization of the method of secondary quantization with appropriate expansion over the geometric objects. The…

The reduction algorithms for functional determinants of differential operators on spacetime manifolds of different topological types are presented, which were recently used for the calculation of the no-boundary wavefunction and the…

In this paper, we prove two Kastler-Kalau-Walze type theorems for conformal perturbations of twisted Dirac operators and conformal perturbations of twisted signature operators on four-dimensional manifolds with (resp. without) boundary.

By replacing the torus with an elementary abelian two-group, we generalize the maximal symmetry result of Grove and Searle and the half-maximal symmetry result of Wilking for positively curved manifolds with an isometric torus action.

Non-commutative versions of Arveson's curvature invariant and Euler characteristic for a commuting $n$-tuple of operators are introduced. The non-commutative curvature invariant is sensitive enough to determine if an $n$-tuple is free. In…

We present two versions of the Egorov theorem for orbifolds. The first one is a straightforward extension of the classical theorem for smooth manifolds. The second one considers an orbifold as a singular manifold, the orbit space of a Lie…

In this work, we explore the use of operator splitting algorithms for solving regularized structural topology optimization problems. The context is the classical structural design problems (e.g., compliance minimization and compliant…
