A knot without triple bitangency
1997
It is proved that certain trefoil knot has not triple bitangency, answering thus in the negative a conjecture of S. Izumiya and W. L. Marar.
Equidistribution and Counting of Common Perpendiculars in Quotient Spaces
2019
In this chapter, we use the results of Chapter 11 to prove equidistribution and counting results in Riemannian manifolds (or good orbifolds) and in metric and simplicial graphs (of groups).
Braiding minimal sets of vector fields
2002
We extend a classical but fundamental theorem of knot and braid theories to describe the geometry of nonsingular minimal sets of 3-dimensional flows.
Complete weights andv-peak points of spaces of weighted holomorphic functions
2006
We examine the geometric theory of the weighted spaces of holomorphic functions on bounded open subsets ofC n ,C n ,H v (U) and\(H_{v_o } (U)\), by finding a lower bound for the set of weak*-exposed and weak*-strongly exposed points of the unit ball of\(H_{v_o } (U)'\) and give necessary and sufficient conditions for this set to be naturally homeomorphic toU. We apply these results to examine smoothness and strict convexity of\(H_{v_o } (U)\) and\(H_v (U)\). We also investigate whether\(H_{v_o } (U)\) is a dual space.
On the WGSC Property in Some Classes of Groups
2009
The property of quasi-simple filtration (or qsf) for groups has been introduced in literature more than 10 years ago by S. Brick. This is equivalent, for groups, to the weak geometric simple connectivity (or wgsc). The main interest of these notions is that there is still not known whether all finitely presented groups are wgsc (qsf) or not. The present note deals with the wgsc property for solvable groups and generalized FC-groups. Moreover, a relation between the almost-convexity condition and the Tucker property, which is related to the wgsc property, has been considered for 3-manifold groups.
Absolute continuity of mappings with finite geometric distortion
2015
Suppose that ⊂ R n is a domain with n ≥ 2. We show that a continuous, sense-preserving, open and discrete mapping of finite geometric outer distortion with KO(·,f) ∈ L 1/(n 1) loc () is absolutely continuous on almost every line parallel to the coordinate axes. Moreover, if U ⊂ is an open set with N(f,U) 0 depends only on n and on the maximum multiplicity N(f,U).
Computation of Yvon-Villarceau circles on Dupin cyclides and construction of circular edge right triangles on tori and Dupin cyclides
2014
Ring Dupin cyclides are non-spherical algebraic surfaces of degree four that can be defined as the image by inversion of a ring torus. They are interesting in geometric modeling because: (1) they have several families of circles embedded on them: parallel, meridian, and Yvon-Villarceau circles, and (2) they are characterized by one parametric equation and two equivalent implicit ones, allowing for better flexibility and easiness of use by adopting one representation or the other, according to the best suitability for a particular application. These facts motivate the construction of circular edge triangles lying on Dupin cyclides and exhibiting the aforementioned properties. Our first contr…
Efficient formulation of a two-noded geometrically exact curved beam element
2021
The article extends the formulation of a 2D geometrically exact beam element proposed by Jirasek et al. (2021) to curved elastic beams. This formulation is based on equilibrium equations in their integrated form, combined with the kinematic relations and sectional equations that link the internal forces to sectional deformation variables. The resulting first-order differential equations are approximated by the finite difference scheme and the boundary value problem is converted to an initial value problem using the shooting method. The article develops the theoretical framework based on the Navier-Bernoulli hypothesis, with a possible extension to shear-flexible beams. Numerical procedures …
Optimal rates of convergence for persistence diagrams in Topological Data Analysis
2013
Computational topology has recently known an important development toward data analysis, giving birth to the field of topological data analysis. Topological persistence, or persistent homology, appears as a fundamental tool in this field. In this paper, we study topological persistence in general metric spaces, with a statistical approach. We show that the use of persistent homology can be naturally considered in general statistical frameworks and persistence diagrams can be used as statistics with interesting convergence properties. Some numerical experiments are performed in various contexts to illustrate our results.
Improving Lossless Image Compression with Contextual Memory
2019
With the increased use of image acquisition devices, including cameras and medical imaging instruments, the amount of information ready for long term storage is also growing. In this paper we give a detailed description of the state-of-the-art lossless compression software PAQ8PX applied to grayscale image compression. We propose a new online learning algorithm for predicting the probability of bits from a stream. We then proceed to integrate the algorithm into PAQ8PX&rsquo
