The Ricci Curvature on Simplicial Complexes

open access: yesTheory and Applications of Graphs, 2023
We define the Ricci curvature on simplicial complexes by modifying the definition of the Ricci curvature on graphs, and we prove the upper and lower bounds of the Ricci curvature. These properties are generalizations of previous studies. Moreover, we obtain an estimate of the eigenvalues of the Laplacian on simplicial complexes using the Ricci ...

The Hall Effects of Vortex Light in Optical Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Photonics Research, EarlyView.
This article models optical materials as curved spacetime to investigate light propagation, finding that the deflection angle for light with spin σ and intrinsic orbital angular momentum ℓ follows ϑ ∝ 2σ + ℓ$\vartheta \propto 2 \text{&sgr; } + ℓ$.

A New Transport Distance and Its Associated Ricci Curvature of Hypergraphs

open access: yesAnalysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces, 2022
The coarse Ricci curvature of graphs introduced by Ollivier as well as its modification by Lin–Lu– Yau have been studied from various aspects. In this paper, we propose a new transport distance appropriate for hypergraphs and study a generalization of ...

Ricci curvature for parametric statistics via optimal transport [PDF]

open access: yesInformation Geometry, 2018
We define the notion of a Ricci curvature lower bound for parametrized statistical models. Following the seminal ideas of Lott–Sturm–Villani, we define this notion based on the geodesic convexity of the Kullback–Leibler divergence in a Wasserstein ...

Auditory Hair Cell Mechanotransduction Channels Dynamically Shape the Mechanical Properties of Their Membrane Environment

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work shows, for the first time, that the stereocilia membrane in cochlear hair cells is dynamically regulated by the mechanotransduction channel to impact the membrane mechanical properties. This work provides direct evidence that the opening and closing associated with the MET channel is regulating the membrane viscosity suggesting that the MET ...

An axially symmetric spacetime with causality violation in Ricci-inverse gravity

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023
In this paper, Ricci-inverse gravity is investigated. It is an alternative theory of gravity that introduces into the Einstein–Hilbert action an anti-curvature scalar that is obtained from the anti-curvature tensor which is the inverse of the Ricci ...

Kropina Metrics with Isotropic Scalar Curvature

open access: yesAxioms, 2023
In this paper, we study Kropina metrics with isotropic scalar curvature. First, we obtain the expressions of Ricci curvature tensor and scalar curvature. Then, we characterize the Kropina metrics with isotropic scalar curvature on by tensor analysis.

Geometric realizations of generalized algebraic curvature operators

open access: yes, 2008
We study the 8 natural GL equivariant geometric realization questions for the space of generalized algebraic curvature tensors. All but one of them is solvable; a non-zero projectively flat Ricci antisymmetric generalized algebraic curvature is not ...

Investigation of Mechanical and Thermal Properties of Modified Silica Aerogels/Epoxy/Aramid Composites

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Production process of amine‐modified silica aerogel reinforced aramid/epoxy composite (EAFS). ABSTRACT Due to its high pore size and low density, amine‐modified silica aerogel (XSA) is an excellent candidate for the secondary reinforcement material of polymer matrix composites.
