A Hausdorff topological group is called minimal if it does not admit a strictly coarser Hausdorff group topology. This paper mostly deals with the topological group $H_+(X)$ of order-preserving homeomorphisms of a compact linearly ordered…

In 1985, Bryant stated that a flat $2$-torus admits a minimal isometric immersion into some round sphere if and only if a certain rationality condition is satisfied. We show that the rationality criterion is no longer a necessary, but a…

We study a variety of natural constructions from topological combinatorics, including matching complexes as well as other graph complexes, from the perspective of the graph minor category of \parencite{MiProRa}. We prove that these…

We give a description of the structure of finite Morse index solutions to two free boundary problems in $\mathbb{R}^2$. These free boundary problems are models of phase transition and they are closely related to minimal hypersurfaces. We…

We find various lower and upper bounds for the index of Wente tori that contain a continuous family of planar principal curves. We then prove a result that gives an algorithm for computing the index sharply.

We establish new obstruction results to the existence of Riemannian metrics on tori satisfying mixed bounds on both their sectional and Ricci curvatures. More precisely, from Lohkamp's theorem, every torus of dimension at least three admits…

We prove a lower bound on the number of maximally broken trajectories of the negative gradient flow of a Morse-Smale function on a closed aspherical manifold in terms of integral (torsion) homology.

We study the min-max optimization problem where each function contributing to the max operation is strongly-convex and smooth with bounded gradient in the search domain. By smoothing the max operator, we show the ability to achieve an…

We study sets of $N$ points on the $d-$dimensional torus $\mathbb{T}^d$ minimizing interaction functionals of the type \[ \sum_{i, j =1 \atop i \neq j}^{N}{ f(x_i - x_j)}. \] The main result states that for a class of functions $f$ that…

The support of minimizing measures of the causal variational principle on the sphere is analyzed. It is proven that in the case $\tau>\sqrt{3}$, the support of every minimizing measure is contained in a finite number of real analytic curves…

In this note, we study compactness and regularity theory of minimizing intrinsic fractional harmonic mappings introduced by Moser and Roberts. Based on the partial regularity theory of Moser and Roberts, we first use the modified Luckhaus…

Motivated by the construction of time-periodic solutions for the three-dimensional Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation in the case of soft and small ferromagnetic particles, we investigate the regularity properties of minimizers of the…

On any surface we give an example of a metric that contains simple closed geodesics with arbitrary high Morse index. Similarly, on any 3-manifold we give an example of a metric that contains embedded minimal tori with arbitrary high Morse…

We construct embedded Willmore tori with small area constraint in Riemannian three-manifolds under some curvature condition used to prevent M\"obius degeneration. The construction relies on a Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction; to this aim we…

We develop a min-max theory for the construction of capillary surfaces in 3-manifolds with smooth boundary. In particular, for a generic set of ambient metrics, we prove the existence of nontrivial, smooth, almost properly embedded surfaces…

This paper studies the logarithmic moments of the smallest denominator of all rationals in a shrinking interval with random center. Convergence follows from the more general results in [arXiv:2310.11251, Bull. Lond. Math. Soc., to appear],…

Two years ago, F.C. Marques and A.A. Neves implemented, in the framework of closed rectifiable 2-dimensional currents of the 3-dimensional sphere, a min-max method in geometric measure theory due to F. Almgren and J. Pitts. Using this…

Harmonic mappings have long intrigued researchers due to their intrinsic connection with minimal surfaces. In this paper, we investigate shearing of two distinct classes of univalent conformal mappings which are convex in horizontal…

We study the indices of the geodesic central configurations on $\H^2$. We then show that central configurations are bounded away from the singularity set. With Morse's inequality, we get a lower bound for the number of central…

We establish a majorization-based theory for bounding observables of waves with varied coherence. For any measurement, exact bounds are attained by the maximal and minimal elements in the set of input coherence spectra. The set's supremum…
