We prove a structural theorem that provides a precise local picture of how a sequence of closed embedded minimal hypersurfaces with uniformly bounded index (and volume if the ambient dimension is greater than three) in a Riemannian manifold…

In this paper, we consider locally wedge-shaped manifolds, which are Riemannian manifolds that are allowed to have both boundary and certain types of edges. We define and study the properties of free boundary minimal hypersurfaces inside…

If a variational problem comes with no boundary conditions prescribed beforehand, and yet these arise as a consequence of the variation process itself, we speak of a free boundary values variational problem. Such is, for instance, the…

Let $A$ be a finite-dimensional local commutative algebra over $R$, $\dim_RA=n$. In this work we consider compact manifolds over $A$, and prove that the real part of an $A$-differentiable function is constant. Also we find estimates for the…

This is a continuation of the paper 'Symmetry breaking and other phenomena in the optimization of eigenvalues for composite membranes' by S. Chanillo, D. Grieser, M. Imai, K. Kurata, and I. Ohnishi. Again, we consider the following…

This paper provides necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of free boundaries in overdetermined value-problems (ODVP) for the Laplacian, and sufficient conditions for the bi-Laplacian, when the overdetermined boundary…

This paper gives a framework to produce the lower bound of eigenvalues defined in a Hilbert space by the eigenvalues defined in another Hilbert space. The method is based on using the max-min principle for the eigenvalue problems.

Starting with a quantum particle on a closed manifold without boundary, we consider the process of generating boundaries by modding out by a group action with fixed points, and we study the emergent quantum dynamics on the quotient…

We obtain tight bounds for the minimal number of generators of an ideal with bounded-degree generators in a polynomial ring $K[X_1,\dots,X_n],$ as well as a sharp quantification of the maximum possible size of a minimal generating set of…

We present a new duality theory for non-convex variational problems, under possibly mixed Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions. The dual problem reads nicely as a linear programming problem, and our main result states that there is no…

In this note we consider the Liouville type theorem for a properly immersed submanifold $M$ in a complete Riemmanian manifold $N$. Assume that the sectional curvature $K^N$ of $N$ satisfies…

Let $(M, g)$ be an $n$-dimensional complete Riemannian manifold with $Ric(M)\geq-(n-1)Q$, where $Q\geq0$ is a constant. We obtain an interior gradient bound for minimal graphs in $M\times R$ under some technical assumptions. For details,…

This paper investigates the link between the Maximum Principle and the sign of the (generalized) principal eigenvalue for elliptic operators in unbounded domains. Our approach covers the cases of Dirichlet, Neumann, and (indefinite) Robin…

For each integer $g\geq 1$ we use variational methods to construct in the unit $3$-ball $B$ a free boundary minimal surface $\Sigma_g$ of symmetry group $\mathbb{D}_{g+1}$. For $g$ large, $\Sigma_g$ has three boundary components and genus…

This paper is about the influence of Geometry on the qualitative behaviour of solutions of quasilinear PDEs on Riemannian manifolds. Motivated by examples arising, among others, from the theory of submanifolds, in particular by the study of…

In this paper, we propose nonlocal diffusion models with Dirichlet boundary. These nonlocal diffusion models preserve the maximum principle and also have corresponding variational form. With these good properties, we can prove the…

In this paper, we prove that for any closed 4-dimensional Riemannian manifold $M$ with trivial first homology group, if the Ricci curvature $|Ric|\leq3$, the diameter $diam(M)\leq D$ and the volume $vol(M)>v>0$, then the area of a smallest…

Maximum Variance Unfolding is one of the main methods for (nonlinear) dimensionality reduction. We study its large sample limit, providing specific rates of convergence under standard assumptions. We find that it is consistent when the…

Given any admissible $k$-dimensional family of immersions of a given closed oriented surface into an arbitrary closed Riemannian manifold, we prove that the corresponding min-max width for the area is achieved by a smooth (possibly…

We establish an explicit maximum principle for the Dirichlet problem associated with the $p$-Laplacian ($p>1$), where the constant depends on both $p$ and the geometry of the domain. From this result we derive two main applications. First,…
