We consider the existence and stability of static configurations of a scalar field in a five dimensional spacetime in which the extra spatial dimension is compactified on an $S^1/Z_2$ orbifold. For a wide class of potentials with multiple…

The aim of this paper is to prove two results concerning the rigidity of complete, immersed, orientable, stable minimal hypersurfaces: we show that they are hyperplane in $\mathbb{R}^4$, while they do not exist in positively curved closed…

We have identified some necessary conditions for the existence of rigid sphere designs. In particular, we have successfully resolved the conjecture proposed by [Ban87]; Given fixed positive integers t and d, we show that there exist only…

Consider an arrangement of $n$ congruent zones on the $d$-dimensional unit sphere $S^{d-1}$, where a zone is the intersection of an origin symmetric Euclidean plank with $S^{d-1}$. We prove that, for sufficiently large $n$, it is possible…

This paper investigates the existence and properties of spherical $5$-designs of minimal type. We focus on two cases: tight spherical $5$-designs and antipodal spherical $4$-distance $5$-designs. We prove that a tight spherical $5$-design…

We study the holomorphic embedding problem from a compact strongly pseudoconvex real algebraic hypersurface into a sphere of higher dimension. We construct a family of compact strongly pseudoconvex hypersurfaces $M_{\epsilon}$ in…

We consider static configurations of bulk scalar fields in extra dimensional models in which the fifth dimension is an $S^1/Z_2$ orbifold. There may exist a finite number of such configurations, with total number depending on the size of…

Let $(M^m,g)$ be an $m$-dimensional closed Riemannian manifold with non-negative sectional curvatures, $m\ge 3$. We define a conformal invariant and prove that, if the conformal invariant is bounded from above by a constant depending only…

To describe a massive particle with fixed, but arbitrary, spin on $d=4$ anti-de Sitter space $M^4$, we propose the point-particle model with configuration space ${\cal M}^6 = M^{4}\times S^{2}$, where the sphere $S^2$ corresponds to the…

Let $n$ points be in crescent configurations in $\mathbb{R}^d$ if they lie in general position in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and determine $n-1$ distinct distances, such that for every $1 \leq i \leq n-1$ there is a distance that occurs exactly $i$…

For each N>=c_d*n^{2d*(d+1)/(d+2)} we prove the existence of a spherical n-design on S^d consisting of N points, where c_d is a constant depending only on $d$.

We study the Disc-structure space $S^{\rm Disc}_\partial(M)$ of a compact smooth manifold $M$. Informally speaking, this space measures the difference between $M$, together with its diffeomorphisms, and the diagram of ordered framed…

We find the set of all universal minimum points of the potential of the $16$-point sharp code on $S^4$ and (more generally) of the demihypercube on $S^d$, $d\geq 5$, as well as of the $2_{41}$ polytope on $S^7$. We also extend known results…

In this note we show that there are no real configurations of $d\geq 4$ lines in the projective plane such that the associated Kummer covers of order $3^{d-1}$ are ball-quotients and there are no configurations of $d\geq 4$ lines such that…

It is widely recognized that no tractable necessary and sufficient conditions exist for determining whether a system is, in general, differentially flat. However, specific cases do provide such conditions. For instance, driftless systems…

For each $N\ge C_dt^d$ we prove the existence of a well separated spherical $t$-design in the sphere $S^d$ consisting of $N$ points, where $C_d$ is a constant depending only on $d$.

Packing problems, which ask how to arrange a collection of objects in space to meet certain criteria, are important in a great many physical and biological systems, where geometrical arrangements at small scales control behaviour at larger…

In this paper, we prove the existence of a spherical $t$-design formed by adding extra points to an arbitrarily given point set on the sphere and, subsequently, deduce the existence of nested spherical designs. Estimates on the number of…

A rigidity theory is developed for bar-joint frameworks in $\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$ whose vertices are constrained to lie on concentric $d$-spheres with independently variable radii. In particular, combinatorial characterisations are established…

We prove some rigidity theorems for configurations of closed disks. First, fix two collections $\mathcal{C}$ and $\tilde{\mathcal{C}}$ of closed disks in the Riemann sphere $\hat{\mathbb{C}}$, sharing a contact graph which…
