Interlacing of the Volume and Half-Volume Spectra

We give a direct proof of the weak interlacing inequalities \[ω_p\leq\widetildeω_p\leqω_{p+1}\] between the volume and half-volume spectra of a closed connected Riemannian manifold $M^{n+1}$, $n+1\geq3$. We also prove that, for a residual set of smooth metrics, the area of every smooth embedded half-volume CMC boundary lies outside the rational span of the areas of smooth closed embedded minimal hypersurfaces. For dimensions $3\le n+1\le 5$, these results yield strict interlacing for generic metrics and a lower bound of order $A^{n+1}$ for the number of distinct half-volume CMC boundaries with area at most $A$.

Local Variational Properties of Non-degenerate Free Boundary Minimal Hypersurfaces

We establish local variational characterizations of non-degenerate free-boundary minimal hypersurfaces in compact Riemannian manifolds with boundary. For a two-sided strictly stable hypersurface, we show that it is the unique mass minimizer in its relative homology class, both in a small tubular and flat-neighborhood. As an application, for generic metrics in dimensions $3\le n+1\le 7$, we show that the first free-boundary width is realized by a multiplicity-one hypersurface of Morse index one. For an orientable non-degenerate free-boundary hypersurface of Morse index $k>0$, we construct a canonical local $k$-parameter family and obtain a local min--max characterization.

Barycentric Cuts at Maximal Depth and a Five-Cut Theorem

We determine the sharp number and the complete finite spectrum of barycentric hyperplanes through the Tukey median. We further prove that every convex body in $\mathbb R^n$, $n\ge3$, contains an interior point incident with at least five barycentric hyperplanes. In particular, this settles Grünbaum's original conjecture in dimension four.
