A type I conjecture and boundary representations of hyperbolic groups

Nicolas Monod

We establish new results on the weak containment of quasi-regular and Koopman representations of a second countable locally compact group G

G

associated with nonsingular G

-spaces. We deduce that any two boundary representations of a hyperbolic locally ...

WILEY2023

This thesis is a study of the global well-posedness of the Cauchy problems for half-wave maps from the Minkowski space of dimension n+1 to the 2-dimensional sphere and the hyperbolic plane. The work is mainly based on the results from Krieger-Sire 17' in ...

EPFL2023

The work is about the study of group representations in the group of isometries of a separable complex hyperbolic space. The main part is the classification of the representations of the group of isometries of a finite dimensional complex hyperbolic spa ...

T-5 configurations and hyperbolic systems

Carl Johan Peter Johansson, Riccardo Tione

In this paper, we study the rank-one convex hull of a differential inclusion associated to entropy solutions of a hyperbolic system of conservation laws. This was introduced in [B. Kirchheim, S. Muller and V. S(sic)ver & aacute;k, Studying Nonlinear PDE by ...

Comparing the Buckling Strength of Spherical Shells With Dimpled Versus Bumpy Defects

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis, Fani Derveni, Arefeh Abbasi

We investigate the effect of defect geometry in dictating the sensitivity of the critical buckling conditions of spherical shells under external pressure loading. Specifically, we perform a comparative study between shells containing dimpled (inward) versu ...

We present a study on the pressure buckling of thin, elastic spherical shells containing a thickness defect. Methodologically, we combine precision model experiments, finite element simulations, and a reduced axisymmetric shell model. We observe qualitativ ...

Hyperbolicity as an obstruction to smoothability for one-dimensional actions

Yash Lodha

Ghys and Sergiescu proved in the 1980s that Thompson's group T, and hence F, admits actions by C-infinity diffeomorphisms of the circle. They proved that the standard actions of these groups are topologically conjugate to a group of C-infinity diffeomorphi ...

GEOMETRY & TOPOLOGY PUBLICATIONS2019

In this paper we develop new methods for studying the convergence problem for the heat flow on negatively curved spaces and prove that any quasiconformal map of the sphere Sn−1,n≥3, can be extended to the n-dimensional hyperbolic space such that the heat f ...

An isogeometric boundary element method for electromagnetic scattering with compatible B-spline discretizations

Rafael Vazquez Hernandez

We outline the construction of compatible B-splines on 3D surfaces that satisfy the continuity requirements for electromagnetic scattering analysis with the boundary element method (method of moments). Our approach makes use of Non-Uniform Rational B-splin ...
