Static manifolds with boundary: Their geometry and some uniqueness theorems
Static manifolds with boundary appear naturally in the context of the
prescribed scalar curvature problem on manifolds with boundary, when the mean
curvature of the boundary is also prescribed. They also arise in the setting of gen-
eral relativity: for example the time-slice of the photon sphere on the Riemannian
Schwarzschild manifold splits it into static manifolds with boundary. In this paper,
we prove a number of theorems that relate the topology and geometry of a given
static manifold with boundary to some properties of the zero-level set of its poten-
tial (such as connectedness and closedness). Also, we characterize the round ball
in Euclidean 3-space with standard potential as the only scalar-flat static manifold
with mean-convex boundary whose zero-level set of the potential has Morse index
one. This result follows from a general isoperimetric inequality for 3-dimensional
static manifolds with boundary, whose zero-level set of the potential has Morse in-
dex one. Finally, we prove some uniqueness theorems for the domains bounded by
the photon sphere on the Riemannian Schwarzschild manifold.

In this paper, new numerical invariants of structurally unstable vector fields in the plane
are found. One of the main tools is an improved asymptotics of sparkling saddle connections that
occur when a separatrix loop of a hyperbolic saddle breaks. Another main tool is a new topological
invariant of two arithmetic progressions, both perturbed and unperturbed, on the ...

The regular graph of the space of n × m matrices over a field F is defined as the undirected graph whose vertices are matrices of rank min(n, m), and distinct matrices A and B are connected by an edge if and only if rk(A + B) < min(n, m). In this paper, for |F| ...

AI errors pose a significant challenge, hindering real-world applications. This work introduces a novel approach to cope with AI errors using weakly supervised error correctors that guarantee a specific level of error reduction. Our correctors have low computational cost and can be used to decide whether to abstain from making an unsafe classification. We provide ...

High-dimensional tabular data are common in biomedical and clinical research, yet conventional machine learning methods often struggle in such settings due to data scarcity, feature redundancy, and limited generalization. In this study, we systematically evaluate Synolitic Graph Neural Networks (SGNNs), a framework that transforms high-dimensional samples into sample-specific graphs by training ensembles of low-dimensional pairwise ...

This study presents on-the-fly identification and multi-step prediction of nonlinear systems with delayed inputs using a dynamic neural network combined with a smooth projection onto ellipsoids. The projection enforces parameter constraints that guarantee stability, while a Lyapunov–Krasovskii analysis yields computable ultimate error bounds. Riccati-type matrix inequalities are derived, providing an efficient vectorization–projection–devectorization implementation suitable for ...

The approximation of tensors in a low-para metric format is a crucial component in many mathematical modelling and data analysis tasks. Among the widely used low-parametric representations, the canonical polyadic (CP) decomposition is known to be very efficient. Nowadays, most algorithms for CP approximation aim to construct the approximation in the Frobenius norm; however, some ...

A B-facet is a lattice -dimensional polytope in the positive octant with a positive normal covector, such that every -dimensional simplex with vertices in it is a B-simplex (i.e., a pyramid of height one with base on a coordinate hyperplane). B-facets were introduced in [2] in the context of the monodromy conjecture. In this paper, we complete the ...

The Vickrey-Clarke-Groves (VCG) mechanism is one of the most compelling constructs in mechanism design, but the presence of complementary goods creates the possibility of non-core and even zero-revenue outcomes. In this article, we show that joint feasibility constraints on allocations offer a second pathway to ill-behaved outcomes in the VCG mechanism, even when all bidders ...

We provide examples of smooth three-dimensional Fano complete intersections of degree 2, 4, 6, and 8 that have absolute coregularity 0. Considering the main theorem of Avilov, Loginov, and Przyjalkowski (CNTP 18:506–577, 2024) on the remaining 101 families of smooth Fano threefolds, our result implies that each family of smooth Fano threefolds has an element of absolute ...

In this paper, we consider a class of gradient-like ows without heteroclinic
intersections, dened on closed manifolds of dimension four. We show that for
such ows, the problem of complete topological classication can be reduced to
the combinatorial problem of distinguishing special framed graphs describing
the mutual arrangement of invariant manifolds and the action of the ow on a

We show that bifurcations of four-dimensional symplectic diffeomorphisms with a quadratic homoclinic tangency to a saddle periodic orbit with real multipliers produce 2-elliptic periodic orbits if the tangency is not partially hyperbolic. We show that a normal form for the rescaled first-return maps near such tangency is given by a four-dimensional symplectic H´enonlike map and study bifurcations of the ...

The book contains new models of bibliometric analysis based on centrality measures in network analysis, pattern analysis and stability analysis. A distinctive feature of these centrality measures is that they account for the parameters of vertices and group influence of vertices to a vertex. This reveals specific groups of publications, authors, terms, journals and affiliations ...

We develop a machine-learning approach to reproduce the behavior of two versions of the van der Pol oscillator exhibiting a subcritical Andronov–Hopf bifurcation, with or without a codimension-2 Bautin point. We construct a neural-network model that functions as a recur rent map and train it on short segments of oscillator trajectories. The results show that, ...

In this paper the structural stability of generic families of vector fields of the PC-HC class on the two-dimensional sphere is proved. A classification of these families up to moderate equivalence in neighborhoods of their large bifurcation supports is presented, based on such invariants as the configuration and the characteristic set.

It is known that for every continuous real-valued
function $f$ on the circle $\mathbb T=\mathbb R/2\pi\mathbb Z$ there exists a
change of variable, i.e., a self-homeomorphism $h$ of $\mathbb T$, such that
the superposition $f\circ h$ is in the Sobolev space $W_2^{1/2}(\mathbb T)$.
We obtain new results on simultaneous improvement of functions by a single

We investigate the interplay between the dimension of the space of static potentials and the geometric and topological structure of the underlying static three-manifold. A partial classification of boundaryless static manifolds is obtained in terms of this dimension. We also treat the case of static manifolds with boundary. In particular, we prove that if a ...
