Degree theory for 4‐dimensional asymptotically conical gradient expanding solitons
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/\

Isoperimetric inequalities on slabs with applications to cubes and Gaussian slabs
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

Abstract String theory has strong implications for cosmology, implying the absence of a cosmological constant, ruling out single‐field slow‐roll inflation, and that black holes decay. The origins of these statements are elucidated within the string‐theoretical swampland programme.

Collaborative Multiagent Closed‐Loop Motion Planning for Multimanipulator Systems
This work presents a hierarchical multi‐manipulator planner, emphasizing highly overlapping space. The proposed method leverages an enhanced Dynamic Movement Primitive based planner along with an improvised Multi‐Agent Reinforcement Learning approach to ensure regulatory and mediatory control while ensuring low‐level autonomy. Experiments across varied

Abstract INTRODUCTION Polygenic risk scores (PRSs) for Alzheimer's disease (AD) capture an individual's genetic susceptibility to AD. Although thoroughly studied in older populations, there exists a notable gap in comprehensively exploring the association of AD PRS with early brain development.

Quasi‐Fuchsian flows and the coupled vortex equations
Abstract We provide an alternative construction of the quasi‐Fuchsian flows introduced by Ghys. Our approach is based on the coupled vortex equations that allows to see these flows as thermostats on the unit tangent bundle of the Blaschke metric, uniquely determined by a conformal class and a holomorphic quadratic differential.

Toral symmetries of collapsed ancient solutions to the homogeneous Ricci flow
Abstract Collapsed ancient solutions to the homogeneous Ricci flow on compact manifolds occur only on the total space of principal torus bundles. Under an algebraic assumption that guarantees flowing through diagonal metrics and a tameness assumption on the collapsing directions, we prove that such solutions have additional symmetries, that is, they ...

Critically fixed Thurston maps: classification, recognition, and twisting
Abstract An orientation‐preserving branched covering map f:S2→S2$f\colon S^2\rightarrow S^2$ is called a critically fixed Thurston map if f$f$ fixes each of its critical points. It was recently shown that there is an explicit one‐to‐one correspondence between Möbius conjugacy classes of critically fixed rational maps and isomorphism classes of planar ...

Harmonic maps to the circle with higher dimensional singular set
Abstract In a closed, oriented ambient manifold (Mn,g)$(M^n,g)$ we consider the problem of finding S1$\mathbb {S}^1$‐valued harmonic maps with prescribed singular set. We show that the boundary of any oriented (n−1)$(n-1)$‐submanifold can be realised as the singular set of an S1$\mathbb {S}^1$‐valued map, which is classically harmonic away from the ...
