Topological optimization of hybrid quantum key distribution networks

With the growing complexity of quantum key distribution (QKD) network structures, aforehand topology design is of great significance to support a large-number of nodes over a large-spatial area. However, the exclusivity of quantum channels, the limitation of key generation capabilities, the variety of QKD protocols and the necessity of untrusted-relay selection, make the optimal topology design a very complicated task. In this research, a hybrid QKD network is studied for the first time from the perspective of topology, by analyzing the topological differences of various QKD protocols. In addition, to make full use of hybrid networking, an analytical model for optimal topology calculation is proposed, to reach the goal of best secure communication service by optimizing the deployment of various QKD devices and the selection of untrusted-relays under a given cost limit. Plentiful simulation results show that hybrid networking and untrusted-relay selection can bring great performance advantages, and then the universality and effectiveness of the proposed analytical model are verified.

New Developments in Mean Curvature Flow of Arbitrary Codimension Inspired By Yau Rigidity Theory

In this survey, we will focus on the mean curvature flow theory with sphere theorems, and discuss the recent developments on the convergence theorems for the mean curvature flow of arbitrary codimension inspired by the Yau rigidity theory of submanifolds. Several new differentiable sphere theorems for submanifolds are obtained as consequences of the convergence theorems for the mean curvature flow. It should be emphasized that Theorem 4.1 is an optimal convergence theorem for the mean curvature flow of arbitrary codimension, which implies the first optimal differentiable sphere theorem for submanifolds with positive Ricci curvature. Finally, we present a list of unsolved problems in this area.

Topological and differentiable rigidity of submanifolds in space forms

Let $F^{n+p}(c)$ be an $(n+p)$-dimensional simply connected space form with nonnegative constant curvature $c$. We prove that if $M^n(n\geq4)$ is a compact submanifold in $F^{n+p}(c)$, and if $Ric_M>(n-2)(c+H^2),$ where $H$ is the mean curvature of $M$, then $M$ is homeomorphic to a sphere. We also show that the pinching condition above is sharp. Moreover, we obtain a new differentiable sphere theorem for submanifolds with positive Ricci curvature.

Rigidity of submanifolds with parallel mean curvature in space froms

Let $M$ be an $n(\geq3)$-dimensional oriented compact submanifold with parallel mean curvature in the simply connected space form $F^{n+p}(c)$ with $c+H^2>0$, where $H$ is the mean curvature of $M$. We prove that if the Ricci curvature of $M$ satisfies $Ric_{M}\geq(n-2)(c+H^2),$ then $M$ is either a totally umbilic sphere, the Clifford hypersurface $S^{m}\big(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2(c+H^2)}}\big)\times S^{m}\big(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2(c+H^2)}}\big)$ in $S^{n+1}(\frac{1}{\sqrt{c+H^2}})$ with $n=2m$, or $\mathbb{C}P^{2}(4/3(c+H^2))$ in $S^7(\frac{1}{\sqrt{c+H^2}})$. In particular, if $Ric_{M}>(n-2)(c+H^2),$ then $M$ is a totally umbilic sphere.

On Yau rigidity theorem for minimal submanifolds in spheres

In this note, we investigate the well-known Yau rigidity theorem for minimal submanifolds in spheres. Using the parameter method of Yau and the DDVV inequality verified by Lu, Ge and Tang, we prove that if $M$ is an $n$-dimensional oriented compact minimal submanifold in the unit sphere $S^{n+p}(1)$, and if $K_{M}\geq\frac{sgn(p-1)p}{2(p+1)},$ then $M$ is either a totally geodesic sphere, the standard immersion of the product of two spheres, or the Veronese surface in $S^4(1)$. Here $sgn(\cdot)$ is the standard sign function. We also extend the rigidity theorem above to the case where $M$ is a compact submanifold with parallel mean curvature in a space form.

The sphere theorems for manifolds with positive scalar curvature

Some new differentiable sphere theorems are obtained via the Ricci flow and stable currents. We prove that if $M^n$ is a compact manifold whose normalized scalar curvature and sectional curvature satisfy the pointwise pinching condition $R_0>σ_{n}K_{\max}$, where $σ_n\in (\frac{1}{4},1)$ is an explicit positive constant, then $M$ is diffeomorphic to a spherical space form. This gives a partial answer to Yau's conjecture on pinching theorem. Moreover, we prove that if $M^n(n\geq3)$ is a compact manifold whose $(n-2)$-th Ricci curvature and normalized scalar curvature satisfy the pointwise condition $Ric^{(n-2)}_{\min}>τ_n(n-2)R_0,$ where $τ_n\in (\frac{1}{4},1)$ is an explicit positive constant, then $M$ is diffeomorphic to a spherical space form. We then extend the sphere theorems above to submanifolds in a Riemannian manifold. Finally we give a classification of submanifolds with weakly pinched curvatures, which improves the differentiable pinching theorems due to Andrews, Baker and the authors.

The second pinching theorem for hypersurfaces with constant mean curvature in a sphere

We generalize the second pinching theorem for minimal hypersurfaces in a sphere due to Peng-Terng, Wei-Xu, Zhang, and Ding-Xin to the case of hypersurfaces with small constant mean curvature. Let $M^n$ be a compact hypersurface with constant mean curvature $H$ in $\mathbb{S}^{n+1}$. Denote by $S$ the squared norm of the second fundamental form of $M$. We prove that there exist two positive constants $γ(n)$ and $δ(n)$ depending only on $n$ such that if $|H|\leqγ(n)$ and $β(n,H)\leq S\leqβ(n,H)+δ(n)$, then $S\equivβ(n,H)$ and $M$ is one of the following cases: (i) $\mathbb{S}^{k}(\sqrt{\frac{k}{n}})\times \mathbb{S}^{n-k}(\sqrt{\frac{n-k}{n}})$, $\,1\le k\le n-1$; (ii) $\mathbb{S}^{1}(\frac{1}{\sqrt{1+μ^2}})\times \mathbb{S}^{n-1}(\fracμ{\sqrt{1+μ^2}})$. Here $β(n,H)=n+\frac{n^3}{2(n-1)}H^2+\frac{n(n-2)}{2(n-1)}\sqrt{n^2H^4+4(n-1)H^2}$ and $μ=\frac{n|H|+\sqrt{n^2H^2+4(n-1)}}{2}$.

An Optimal Differentiable Sphere Theorem for Complete Manifolds

A new differentiable sphere theorem is obtained from the view of submanifold geometry. An important scalar is defined by the scalar curvature and the mean curvature of an oriented complete submanifold $M^n$ in a space form $F^{n+p}(c)$ with $c\ge0$. Making use of the Hamilton-Brendle-Schoen convergence result for Ricci flow and the Lawson-Simons-Xin formula for the nonexistence of stable currents, we prove that if the infimum of this scalar is positive, then $M$ is diffeomorphic to $S^n$. We then introduce an intrinsic invariant $I(M)$ for oriented complete Riemannian $n$-manifold $M$ via the scalar, and prove that if $I(M)>0$, then $M$ is diffeomorphic to $S^n$. It should be emphasized that our differentiable sphere theorem is optimal for arbitrary $n(\ge2)$.

Extend Mean Curvature Flow with Finite Integral Curvature

In this note, we first prove that the solution of mean curvature flow on a finite time interval $[0,T)$ can be extended over time $T$ if the space-time integration of the norm of the second fundamental form is finite. Secondly, we prove that the solution of certain mean curvature flow on a finite time interval $[0,T)$ can be extended over time $T$ if the space-time integration of the mean curvature is finite. Moreover, we show that these conditions are optimal in some sense.
