TOTAL SCALAR CURVATURE AND HARMONIC CURVATURE

open access: yesTaiwanese Journal of Mathematics, 2014
On a compact n-dimensional manifold, it has been conjectured that a critical point metric of the total scalar curvature, restricted to the space of metrics with constant scalar curvature of unit volume, will be Einstein. This conjecture was proposed in 1984 by Besse, but has yet to be proved.

Curvature-induced expulsion of actomyosin bundles during cytokinetic ring contraction

open access: yeseLife, 2016
Many eukaryotes assemble a ring-shaped actomyosin network that contracts to drive cytokinesis. Unlike actomyosin in sarcomeres, which cycles through contraction and relaxation, the cytokinetic ring disassembles during contraction through an unknown ...

Emergent Differential Organization of Airway Smooth Muscle Cells on Concave and Convex Tubular Surface

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021
Airway smooth muscle cells (ASMCs) exist in a form of helical winding bundles within the bronchial airway wall. Such tubular tissue provides cells with considerable curvature as a physical constraint, which is widely thought as an important determinant ...

Yang-Mills equations on conformally connected torsion-free 4-manifolds with different signatures

open access: yesVestnik Samarskogo Gosudarstvennogo Tehničeskogo Universiteta. Seriâ: Fiziko-Matematičeskie Nauki, 2017
In this paper we study spaces of conformal torsion-free connection of dimension 4 whose connection matrix satisfies the Yang-Mills equations. Here we generalize and strengthen the results obtained by us in previous articles, where the angular metric of ...

Hollow Core Bragg Fiber-Based Sensor for Simultaneous Measurement of Curvature and Temperature

open access: yesSensors, 2021
In this paper, the hollow core Bragg fiber (HCBF)-based sensor based on anti-resonant reflecting optical waveguide (ARROW) model is proposed and experimentally demonstrated for simultaneous measurement of curvature and temperature by simply sandwiching a

The Graph Curvature Calculator and the Curvatures of Cubic Graphs [PDF]

open access: yesExperimental Mathematics, 2019
We classify all cubic graphs with either non-negative Ollivier-Ricci curvature or non-negative Bakry-Émery curvature everywhere. We show in both curvature notions that the non-negatively curved graphs are the prism graphs and the Möbius ladders. We also highlight an online tool for calculating the curvature of graphs under several variants of these ...

Curvature-Adjustable Polymeric Nanolens Fabrication Using UV-Controlled Nanoimprint Lithography

open access: yesMicromachines, 2022
Nanolenses are gaining importance in nanotechnology, but their challenging fabrication is thwarting their wider adoption. Of particular challenge is facile control of the lens’ curvature.

Nonnegative curvature and conullity of the curvature tensor [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Global Analysis and Geometry, 2019
The conullity of a curvature tensor is the codimension of its kernel. We consider the cases of conullity two in any dimension and conullity three in dimension four. We show that these conditions are compatible with non-negative sectional curvature only if either the manifold is diffeomorphic to $\mathbb{R}^n$ or the universal cover is an isometric ...

Linear Tool Path-Smoothing Method in High-Speed Machining Based on Error Feasible Area and Curvature Optimization

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Linear tool path is widely used in high-speed NC machining. However, the geometrical discontinuity of the corner between the linear tool paths will lead to fluctuations in speed, acceleration and jerk, which can excite machinery vibration and reduce the ...
