A finite volume symplectic manifold is said to have "packing stability" if the only obstruction to symplectically embedding sufficiently small balls is the volume obstruction. Packing stability has been shown in a variety of cases and it…

We discuss an M-dimensional phantom elastic manifold of linear size L crushed into a small sphere of radius R << L in N-dimensional space. We investigate the low elastic energy states of 2-sheets (M=2) and 3-sheets (M=3) using analytic…

In the density estimation model, we investigate the problem of constructing adaptive honest confidence sets with radius measured in Wasserstein distance $W_p$, $p\geq1$, and for densities with unknown regularity measured on a Besov scale.…

We study the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map for the stationary linear equation of elasticity in a bounded domain in R d , d $\ge$ 2, with smooth boundary. We show that it can be approximated by a pseudodifferential operator on the boundary with a…

We show that an $n$-dimensional surface whose entropy is close to that of an $n$-dimensional plane is close in Hausdorff distance to some $n$-dimensional plane at every scale. Moreover we show that self-expanders of low entropy converge in…

We consider the question of the largest possible combinatorial diameter among $(d-1)$-dimensional simplicial complexes on $n$ vertices, denoted $H_s(n, d)$. Using a probabilistic construction we give a new lower bound on $H_s(n, d)$ that is…

A Riemannian n-manifold M has k-dimensional Uryson width bounded by a constant c >0 if there exists a continuous map f from M to an k-dimensional polyhedral space P, such that the pullbacks f^{-1}(p) of all points p in P have diameters…

We consider the minimization problem of an anisotropic energy in classes of $d$-rectifiable varifolds in $\mathbb R^n$, closed under Lipschitz deformations and encoding a suitable notion of boundary. We prove that any minimizing sequence…

When a thin elastic sheet is confined to a region much smaller than its size the morphology of the resulting crumpled membrane is a network of straight ridges or folds that meet at sharp vertices. A virial theorem predicts the ratio of the…

We prove an exponential size separation between depth 2 and depth 3 neural networks (with real inputs), when approximating a $\mathcal{O}(1)$-Lipschitz target function to constant accuracy, with respect to a distribution with support in the…

We study the complexity of geometric problems on spaces of low fractal dimension. It was recently shown by [Sidiropoulos & Sridhar, SoCG 2017] that several problems admit improved solutions when the input is a pointset in Euclidean space…

In this paper, Neumann cracks in elastic bodies are considered. We establish a rigorous asymptotic expansion for the boundary perturbations of the displacement (and traction) vectors that are due to the presence of a small elastic linear…

We study coassociative 4-folds N in R^7 which are asymptotically conical to a cone C with rate lambda<1. If lambda is in the interval [-2,1) and generic, we show that the moduli space of coassociative deformations of N which are also…

This article will review recent results on dimensional reduction for branched polymers, and discuss implications for critical phenomena. Parisi and Sourlas argued in 1981 that branched polymers fall into the universality class of the…

We prove that the packing dimension of any mean porous Radon measure on $\mathbb R^d$ may be estimated from above by a function which depends on mean porosity. The upper bound tends to $d-1$ as mean porosity tends to its maximum value. This…

Elastic ribbons, slender structures whose length ($L$), width ($W$), and thickness ($b$) satisfy $L \gg W \gg b$, exhibit mechanical behaviors intermediate between one-dimensional rods ($L \gg W, b$) and two-dimensional plates ($L, W \gg…

We study orientability in spaces with Ricci curvature bounded below. Building on the theory developed by Honda, we establish equivalent characterizations of orientability for Ricci limit and RCD spaces in terms of the orientability of their…

This thesis consists of five papers about reduced spherical convex bodies and in particular spherical bodies of constant width on the $d$-dimensional sphere $S^d$. In paper I we present some facts describing the shape of reduced bodies of…

In this work we consider a dissipative reaction-diffusion equation in a $d$-dimensional thin domain shrinking to a one dimensional segment and obtain good rates for the convergence of the attractors. To accomplish this, we use estimates on…

We study the elastic behaviour of a supercoiled DNA molecule. The simplest model is that of a rod like chain, involving two elastic constants, the bending and the twist rigidities. We show that this model is singular and needs a small…
