The Seiberg-Witten equations on 3-manifolds with boundary [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The Seiberg-Witten equations have proved to be quite powerful in studying smooth 4-manifolds since their landing in 1994. The corresponding Seiberg-Witten theory on closed 3-manifolds can either be obtained by a dimension reduction from the four ...

Optimization of 3D‐Printed Structured Packings—Current State and Future Developments

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
This paper gives an overview about structured packing development for distillation, surveying heuristic development cycles, computational fluid dynamics simulations, and additive manufacturing techniques. The emerging application of shape optimization to improve packings is emphasized, and its benefits, impact, and limitations are discussed.

A twistor construction of Kaehler submanifolds of a quaternionic Kaehler manifold [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
. A class of minimal almost complex submanifolds of a Riemannian manifold M ̃ 4n with a parallel quaternionic structure Q, in particular of a 4-dimensional oriented Riemannian manifold, is studied. A notion of Kähler submanifold is defined.

SDFs from Unoriented Point Clouds using Neural Variational Heat Distances

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We propose a novel variational approach for computing neural Signed Distance Fields (SDF) from unoriented point clouds. We first compute a small time step of heat flow (middle) and then use its gradient directions to solve for a neural SDF (right). Abstract We propose a novel variational approach for computing neural Signed Distance Fields (SDF) from ...

Non‐Rigid 3D Shape Correspondences: From Foundations to Open Challenges and Opportunities

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Estimating correspondences between deformed shape instances is a long‐standing problem in computer graphics; numerous applications, from texture transfer to statistical modelling, rely on recovering an accurate correspondence map. Many methods have thus been proposed to tackle this challenging problem from varying perspectives, depending on ...

Geometric structures on loop and path spaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The loop Space associated to a Riemannian manifold admits a quasi-symplectic structure (that is, a closed 2-form which is non-degenerate up to a finite-dimensional kernel). We show how to construct a compatible almost-complex structure.

Establishing Shape Correspondences: A Survey

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Shape correspondence between surfaces in 3D is a central problem in geometry processing, concerned with establishing meaningful relations between surfaces. While all correspondence problems share this goal, specific formulations can differ significantly: Downstream applications require certain properties that correspondences must satisfy ...

New hyper-Käahler structures on tangent bundles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
summary:Let $(M,g,J)$ be an almost Hermitian manifold, then the tangent bundle $TM$ carries a class of naturally defined almost hyper-Hermitian structures $(G,J_1,J_2,J_3)$.

Predicting Crack Propagation in Brittle TPMS Under Uniaxial Loading: A Dual Concept Approach via Geodesic Lines and Cross‐Sectional Analysis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Ceramic Engineering &Science, Volume 8, Issue 4, July 2026.
Cracking in brittle TPMS structures is governed by their geometry, with cracks propagating along geodesic paths determined by the initial crack orientation. Regions with small cross‐sections and abrupt area transitions identify critical damage regions and explain the differences in compressive strength among Primitive, Gyroid, Neovius, and IWP designs.

Coulomb branch algebras via symplectic cohomology

open access: yesJournal of Topology, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Let (M¯,ω)$(\bar{M}, \omega)$ be a compact symplectic manifold with convex boundary and c1(TM¯)=0$c_1(T\bar{M})=0$. Suppose that (M¯,ω)$(\bar{M}, \omega)$ is equipped with a convex Hamiltonian G$G$‐action for some connected, compact Lie group G$G$.
