Discrete differential geometry of fluvial landscapes [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics
Geomorphology as a discipline is defined by the use of topographic form to understand surface processes on Earth and other planets. In practice this requires drawing connections between quantitative metrics of surface geometry and rates of erosion and ...

Heat Kernel Embeddings, Differential Geometry and Graph Structure

open access: yesAxioms, 2015
In this paper, we investigate the heat kernel embedding as a route to graph representation. The heat kernel of the graph encapsulates information concerning the distribution of path lengths and, hence, node affinities on the graph; and is found by ...

Intrinsic Curvatures of Atomic Orbitals for Hydrogen-Like Atoms [PDF]

open access: yesINCAS Bulletin
Within the quantum model for the hydrogen-like atom and taking into account the concepts of differential geometry, we calculate the intrinsic curvature of several types of atomic orbitals. Based on this concept of intrinsic curvature, a classification of

Differential Cohomology and Gerbes: An Introduction to Higher Differential Geometry

open access: yesAxioms
Differential cohomology is a topic that has been attracting considerable interest. Many interesting applications in mathematics and physics have been known, including the description of WZW terms, string structures, the study of conformal immersions, and

A Unified Superelliptic Framework for the Differential Geometry of Gielis Transformations

open access: yesAxioms
The Gielis superformula is a powerful parametric tool that generates an infinite variety of natural and organic curves and surfaces through a compact set of parameters. However, classical differential geometry has lacked a unified framework for analyzing

Solving p-Laplacian equations on complete manifolds

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2006
Using a reduced version of the sub and super-solutions method, we prove that the equation $Delta _{p}u+ku^{p-1}-Ku^{p^{ast }-1}=0$ has a positive solution on a complete Riemannian manifold for appropriate functions $k,K:Mo mathbb{R}$.

Ordinary differential equations in affine geometry

open access: yesLe Matematiche, 1996
The method of qualitative analysis is used, as applied to a class of fourth order, nonlinear ordinary differential equations, in order to classify, both locally and globally, two classes of hypersurfaces of decomposable type in affine geometry: those ...
