Bilaplacian on a Riemannian manifold and Levi-Civita connection
We generalize for the Bilaplacian the Eells-Elworthy- Malliavin construction of the Brownian motion on a Riemannian manifold.

Red Blood Cell Membrane Mechanics Using Discrete Exterior Calculus (DEC) and Optimization
We present a novel DEC approach for calculating RBC shapes applicable to other cell types and membrane problems. We derive an energy minimization equation that can be solved semi‐implicitly, and a Lie derivative method to control node spacing. This novel work should aid computational modeling in many biological situations.

Gravitational interpretation of the Hitchin equations
By referring to theorems of Donaldson and Hitchin, we exhibit a rigorous AdS/CFT-type correspondence between classical 2+1 dimensional vacuum general relativity theory on S x R and SO(3) Hitchin theory (regarded as a classical conformal field theory) on ...

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

In this paper we make the first steps to a classification of (pseudo-) Riemannian manifolds which are not locally homogeneous but their Levi–Civita connections are homogeneous. The full classification is given for dimension n = 2; in higher dimensions we prove some substantial partial results.

A Miyaoka–Yau inequality for hyperplane arrangements in CPn$\mathbb {CP}^n$
Abstract Let H$\mathcal {H}$ be a hyperplane arrangement in CPn$\mathbb {CP}^n$. We define a quadratic form Q$Q$ on RH$\mathbb {R}^{\mathcal {H}}$ that is entirely determined by the intersection poset of H$\mathcal {H}$. Using the Bogomolov–Gieseker inequality for parabolic bundles, we show that if a∈RH$\mathbf {a}\in \mathbb {R}^{\mathcal {H}}$ is ...

Almost contact B-metric manifolds with curvature tensors of K\"ahler type [PDF]
On 5-dimensional almost contact B-metric manifolds, the form of any K\"ahler-type tensor (i.e. a tensor satisfying the properties of the curvature tensor of the Levi-Civita connection in the special class of the parallel structures on the manifold) is ...

Diffeological Levi-Civita connections
A diffeological connection on a diffeological vector pseudo-bundle is defined just the usual one on a smooth vector bundle; this is possible to do, because there is a standard diffeological counterpart of the cotangent bundle. On the other hand, there is not yet a standard theory of tangent bundles, although there are many suggested and promising ...
