Degree theory for 4‐dimensional asymptotically conical gradient expanding solitons

open access: yesCommunications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, Volume 79, Issue 5, Page 1151-1298, May 2026.
Abstract We develop a new degree theory for 4‐dimensional, asymptotically conical gradient expanding solitons. Our theory implies the existence of gradient expanding solitons that are asymptotic to any given cone over S3$S^3$ with non‐negative scalar curvature. We also obtain a similar existence result for cones whose link is diffeomorphic to S3/Γ$S^3/\

The civitas sine urbe: characteristics and examples in Roman Spain of an urban implantation without cities. Egara and Caldes de Montbui [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
En este trabajo plantearemos algunos elementos relacionados con la implantación del modelo de civitas en la Hispania romana. Así, partiremos del mismo concepto de civitas y su papel como factor de integración de los territorios provinciales, para acabar ...

Isoperimetric inequalities on slabs with applications to cubes and Gaussian slabs

open access: yesCommunications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, Volume 79, Issue 4, Page 1012-1072, April 2026.
Abstract We study isoperimetric inequalities on “slabs”, namely weighted Riemannian manifolds obtained as the product of the uniform measure on a finite length interval with a codimension‐one base. As our two main applications, we consider the case when the base is the flat torus R2/2Z2$\mathbb {R}^2 / 2 \mathbb {Z}^2$ and the standard Gaussian measure

Toward Dynamic Phase‐Field Fracture at Finite Strains

open access: yesProceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT We investigate the evolution of dynamic phase‐field fracture in the finite‐strain setting, extending our previous work in the small‐strain viscoelastodynamic regime. The elastodynamic equations are coupled with a dissipative damage evolution for the phase‐field variable z$z$.

Numerical and Analytical Study of Elastic Parameters in Linearized Micropolar Elasticity

open access: yesProceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 26, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The effect of elastic parameters in the linearized theory of micropolar elasticity on observable deformation is analyzed analytically and numerically. Specifically, a shear deformation boundary value problem is studied to explore the physical implications of a micropolar formulation. Our new analytical solution for the two‐dimensional shearing

A Re‐Examination of Foundational Elements of Cosmology

open access: yesFortschritte der Physik, Volume 74, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper undertakes a conceptual re‐examination of several foundational elements of cosmology through the lens of spacetime symmetries. A new derivation of the Friedmann–Lemaître–Robertson–Walker metric is obtained by a careful conceptual examination of rotations and translations on generic manifolds, followed by solving the rotational and ...
