Every smooth fiber bundle admits a complete (Ehresmann) connection. This result appears in several references, with a proof on which we have found a gap, that does not seem possible to remedy. In this note we provide a definite proof for…

Given a finite-dimensional real inner product space V and a finite subgroup G of linear isometries, max filtering affords a bilipschitz Euclidean embedding of the orbit space V/G. We identify the max filtering maps of minimum distortion in…

We classify closed, simply-connected non-negatively curved 5-manifolds admitting an (almost) effective, isometric $T^3$ or $T^2$ action. As a direct consequence, we show that for any manifold, of dimensions up to and including 9 under the…

Let $M$ be an $n \times m$ matrix of independent Rademacher ($\pm 1$) random variables. It is well known that if $n \leq m$, then $M$ is of full rank with high probability. We show that this property is resilient to adversarial changes to…

We prove a rigidity theorem that shows that, under many circumstances, quasi-isometric embeddings of equal rank, higher rank symmetric spaces are close to isometric embeddings. We also produce some surprising examples of quasi-isometric…

A Riemannian manifold $M$ has higher hyperbolic rank if every geodesic has a perpendicular Jacobi field making sectional curvature -1 with the geodesic. If in addition, the sectional curvatures of $M$ lie in the interval $[-1,-\frac14]$,…

For a topological space $X$ we study continuous maps $f : X\to \mathbb R^m$ such that images of every pairwise distinct $k$ points are affinely (linearly) independent. Such maps are called affinely (linearly) $k$-regular embeddings. We…

Let $X$ be an elliptic K3 surface endowed with two distinct Jacobian elliptic fibrations $\pi_i$, $i=1,2$, defined over a number field $k$. We prove that there is an elliptic curve $C\subset X$ such that the generic rank over $k$ of $X$…

We investigate a version of Alberti's rank one theorem in Ahlfors regular metric spaces, as well as a connection with quasiconformal mappings. More precisely, we give a proof of the rank one theorem that partially follows along the usual…

Around 1960, R. Palais and J. Cerf proved a fundamental result relating spaces of diffeomorphisms and imbeddings of manifolds: If V is a submanifold of M, then the map from Diff(M) to Imb(V,M) that takes f to its restriction to V is locally…

Let $S$ be a closed surface of genus at least $2$. For each maximal representation $\rho: \pi_1(S)\rightarrow\mathsf{Sp}(4,\mathbb{R})$ in one of the $2g-3$ exceptional connected components, we prove there is a unique conformal structure on…

A relevant property of equifocal submanifolds is that their parallel sets are still immersed submanifolds, which makes them a natural generalization of the so-called isoparametric submanifolds. In this paper, we prove that the regular…

We consider the multi-view data completion problem, i.e., to complete a matrix $\mathbf{U}=[\mathbf{U}_1|\mathbf{U}_2]$ where the ranks of $\mathbf{U},\mathbf{U}_1$, and $\mathbf{U}_2$ are given. In particular, we investigate the…

For compact Riemannian manifolds with convex boundary, B.White proved the following alternative: Either there is an isoperimetric inequality for minimal hypersurfaces or there exists a closed minimal hypersurface, possibly with a small…

Matrix rank and inertia optimization problems are a class of discontinuous optimization problems, in which the decision variables are matrices running over certain feasible matrix sets, while the ranks and inertias of the variable matrices…

Suppose $X$ is a smooth quasiprojective variety over $\cc$ and $\rho : \pi _1(X,x) \to SL(2,\cc)$ is a Zariski-dense representation with quasiunipotent monodromy at infinity. Then $\rho$ factors through a map $X\to Y$ with $Y$ either a…

We prove that polyharmonic maps of arbitrary order from complete nonparabolic Riemannian manifolds to arbitrary Riemannian manifolds must be harmonic if certain smallness and integrability conditions hold.

We give a sufficient criterion, which we call stability, for a coarse Lipschitz map $f$ from a complete manifold $X$ with Ricci curvature bounded below to a proper Hadamard space $Y$ to be within bounded distance of a harmonic map. We prove…

Let E be a rank two vector bundle on a scheme X. The following three structures are shown to be equivalent : a) A primitive quadratic map q: E --> L, with values in an invertible module L. b) A double covering f: Y --> X endowed with an…

Let X/C be a non iso-trivial family of K3 surfaces over a curve C defined over characteristic p > 2 field. We show that if X avoids a necessary and structural obstruction coming from Frobenius, and satisfies a big monodromy condition, then…
