ABSTRACT We study the long‐term dynamics of followers that selectively follow one of multiple leaders on Riemannian manifolds, where the leaders interact through repulsive forces while remaining cohesively bounded. We propose a multileader–follower multiagent system defined on Riemannian manifolds. In our model, each follower chooses exactly one leader

Geometrical aspects of spinor and twistor analysis [PDF]
This work is concerned with two examples of the interactions between differential geometry and analysis, both related to spinors. The first example is the Dirac operator on conformal spin manifolds with boundary.

Geometry of sub-Riemannian diffusion processes
Sub-Riemannian geometry is the natural setting for studying dynamical systems, as noise often has a lower dimension than the dynamics it enters. This makes sub-Riemannian geometry an important field of study.

Spatial depth for data in metric spaces
Abstract We propose a novel measure of statistical depth, the metric spatial depth, for data residing in an arbitrary metric space. The measure assigns high (low) values for points located near (far away from) the bulk of the data distribution, allowing quantifying their centrality/outlyingness.

Analytic Extension of Riemannian Analytic Manifolds and Local Isometries
This article deals with a locally given Riemannian analytic manifold. One of the main tasks is to define its regular analytic extension in order to generalize the notion of completeness.

The public goods hypothesis for the evolution of life on Earth
It is becoming increasingly difficult to reconcile the observed extent of horizontal gene transfers with the central metaphor of a great tree uniting all evolving entities on the planet. In this manuscript we describe the Public Goods Hypothesis and show

On the tightness of left‐invariant contact structures
Abstract We prove that all left‐invariant contact structures on three‐dimensional Lie groups are tight. The argument is based on Riemannian methods and establishes a unique factorization property for any Lie group admitting a left‐invariant contact structure, other than SU(2)$\mathrm{SU}(2)$. We then make use of such factorization property to construct

Harmonic mappings between surfaces : some local and global properties [PDF]
We develop some local and global properties of a harmonic map f :M -> N between surfaces. Our first main result is a local description of the possible singularities of such a harmonic map - we find there are four types: degeneracy, general fold ...

Cohomogeneity‐one solitons in Laplacian flow: Local, smoothly‐closing and steady solitons
Abstract We initiate a systematic study of cohomogeneity‐one solitons in Bryant's Laplacian flow of closed G2$\text{G}_2$‐structures on a 7‐manifold, motivated by the problem of understanding finite‐time singularities of that flow. Here, we focus on solitons with symmetry groups Sp(2)${\rm Sp}(2)$ and SU(3)${\rm SU}(3)$; in both cases, we prove the ...

Maximal Graphs and Spacelike Mean Curvature Flows in Semi-Euclidean Spaces [PDF]
Two main results are proved. The first is for the maximal graph system in semi-Euclidean spaces. Existence of smooth solutions to the Dirichlet problem is proved, under certain assumptions on the boundary data.
