Leibniz rule on higher pages of unstable spectral sequences

A natural composition $\odot$ on all pages of the lower central series spectral sequence for spheres is defined. Moreover, it is defined for $p$-lower central series spectral sequence of a simplicial group. It is proved that $r$th differential satisfies a "Leibiz rule with suspension": $d^r(a\odot σb)=\pm d^ra\odot b+a\odot d^rσb,$ where $σ$ is the suspension homomorphism.

A combinatorial approach to the exponents of Moore spaces

In this article, we give a combinatorial approach to the exponents of the Moore spaces. Our result states that the projection of the $p^{r+1}$-th power map of the loop space of the $(2n+1)$-dimensional mod $p^r$ Moore space to its atomic piece containing the bottom cell $T^{2n+1}\{p^r\}$ is null homotopic for $n>1$, $p>3$ and $r>1$. This result strengthens the classical result that $ΩT^{2n+1}\{p^r\}$ has an exponent $p^{r+1}$.

On the metastable homotopy of mod 2 Moore spaces

In this article, we study the exponents of metastable homotopy of mod $2$ Moore spaces. Our result gives that the double loop space of $4n$-dimensional mod $2$ Moore spaces has a multiplicative exponent $4$ below the range of $4$ times the connectivity. As a consequence, the homotopy groups of $4n$-dimensional mod $2$ Moore spaces have an exponent $4$ below the range of $4$ times the connectivity.

Some Problems on Knots, Braids, and Automorphism Groups

We present and discuss some open problems formulated by participants of the International Workshop "Knots, Braids, and Auto\-mor\-phism Groups" held in Novosibirsk, 2014. Problems are related to palindromic and commutator widths of groups; properties of Brunnian braids and two-colored braids, corresponding to an amalgamation of groups; extreme properties of hyperbolic 3-orbifold groups, relations between inner and quasi-inner automorphisms of groups; and Staic's construction of symmetric cohomology of groups.

Loop homological invariants associated to real projective spaces

Let A be a based subspace of Y. Under the assumptions that Y is path-connected and that the reduced diagonal map of A induces the zero map in all mod 2 reduced homology groups, we compute a formula for the mod 2 reduced Poincaré series of the loop space $Ω((A \wedge \mathbb{RP}^\infty) \cup_{A \wedge \mathbb{RP}^1} (Y \wedge \mathbb{RP}^1))$. Here $\mathbb{RP}^\infty$ and $\mathbb{RP}^1$ denote the infinite real projective space and the real projective line respectively.

Asymptotically-Optimal Incentive-Based En-Route Caching Scheme

Content caching at intermediate nodes is a very effective way to optimize the operations of Computer networks, so that future requests can be served without going back to the origin of the content. Several caching techniques have been proposed since the emergence of the concept, including techniques that require major changes to the Internet architecture such as Content Centric Networking. Few of these techniques consider providing caching incentives for the nodes or quality of service guarantees for content owners. In this work, we present a low complexity, distributed, and online algorithm for making caching decisions based on content popularity, while taking into account the aforementioned issues. Our algorithm performs en-route caching. Therefore, it can be integrated with the current TCP/IP model. In order to measure the performance of any online caching algorithm, we define the competitive ratio as the ratio of the performance of the online algorithm in terms of traffic savings to the performance of the optimal offline algorithm that has a complete knowledge of the future. We show that under our settings, no online algorithm can achieve a better competitive ratio than $Ω(\log n)$, where $n$ is the number of nodes in the network. Furthermore, we show that under realistic scenarios, our algorithm has an asymptotically optimal competitive ratio in terms of the number of nodes in the network. We also study an extension to the basic algorithm and show its effectiveness through extensive simulations.

Kinematics of Clustering

The dynamical system for inertial particles in fluid flow has both attracting and repelling regions, the interplay of which can localize particles. In laminar flow experiments we find that particles, initially moving throughout the fluid domain, can undergo an instability and cluster into subdomains of the fluid when the flow Reynolds number exceeds a critical value that depends on particle and fluid inertia. We derive an expression for the instability boundary and for a universal curve that describes the clustering rate for all particles.

Homotopy types of moment-angle complexes for flag complexes

We study the homotopy types of moment-angle complexes, or equivalently, of complements of coordinate subspace arrangements. The overall aim is to identify the simplicial complexes K for which the corresponding moment-angle complex Z_K has the homotopy type of a wedge of spheres or a connected sum of sphere products. When K is flag, we identify in algebraic and combinatorial terms those K for which Z_K is homotopy equivalent to a wedge of spheres, and give a combinatorial formula for the number of spheres in the wedge. This extends results of Berglund and Joellenbeck on Golod rings and homotopy theoretical results of the first and third authors. We also establish a connection between minimally non-Golod rings and moment-angle complexes Z_K which are homotopy equivalent to a connected sum of sphere products. We go on to show that for any flag complex K the loop spaces of Z_K and DJ(K) are homotopy equivalent to a product of spheres and loops on spheres when localised rationally or at any odd prime.

The Homotopy Type of a Poincaré Duality Complex after Looping

We answer a weaker version of the classification problem for the homotopy types of $(n-2)$-connected closed orientable $(2n-1)$-manifolds. Let $n\geq 6$ be an even integer, and $X$ be a $(n-2)$-connected finite orientable Poincaré $(2n-1)$-complex such that $H^{n-1}(X;\mathbb{Q})=0$ and $H^{n-1}(X;\mathbb{Z}_2)=0$. Then its loop space homotopy type is uniquely determined by the action of higher Bockstein operations on $H^{n-1}(X;\mathbb{Z}_p)$ for each odd prime $p$. A stronger result is obtained when localized at odd primes.

On Rigidity of hypersurfaces with constant curvature functions in warped product manifolds

In this paper, we first investigate several rigidity problems for hypersurfaces in the warped product manifolds with constant linear combinations of higher order mean curvatures as well as "weighted'' mean curvatures, which extend the work \cite{Mon, Brendle,BE} considering constant mean curvature functions. Secondly, we obtain the rigidity results for hypersurfaces in the space forms with constant linear combinations of intrinsic Gauss-Bonnet curvatures $L_k$. To achieve this, we develop some new kind of Newton-Maclaurin type inequalities on $L_k$ which may have independent interest.

Hypersurfaces with constant curvature quotients in warped product manifolds

In this paper, we study rigidity problems for hypersurfaces with constant curvature quotients $\frac{\mathcal{H}_{2k+1}}{\mathcal{H}_{2k}}$ in the warped product manifolds. Here $\mathcal{H}_{2k}$ is the $k$-th Gauss-Bonnet curvature and $\mathcal{H}_{2k+1}$ arises from the first variation of the total integration of $\mathcal{H}_{2k}$. Hence the quotients considered here are in general different from $\frac{σ_{2k+1}}{σ_{2k}}$, where $σ_k$ are the usual mean curvatures. We prove several rigidity and Bernstein type results for compact or non-compact hypersurfaces corresponding to such quotients.

On Cohen braids

For a general surface $M$ and an arbitrary braid $α$ from the surface braid group $B_{n-1}(M)$ we study the system of equations $d_1β=\cdots=d_{n}β=α, $ where operation $d_i$ is deleting of $i$-th strand. We obtain that if $M\not=S^2$ or $\mathbb RP^2$ this system of equations has a solution $β\in B_{n}(M)$ if and only if $d_1α=\ldots=d_nα. $ The set of braids satisfying the last system of equations we call Cohen braids. We also construct a set of generators for the groups of Cohen braids. In the cases of the sphere and the projective plane we give some examples for the small number of strands.

On Backward Uniqueness for the Heat Operator in Cones

Consider the system $|\partial_tu+Δu|\leq M(|u|+|\nabla u|)$, $|u(x,t)|\leq Me^{M|x|^2}$ in $\mathcal{C}_θ\times[0,T]$ and $u(x,0)=0$ in $\mathcal{C}_θ$, where $\mathcal{C}_θ$ is a cone with opening angle $θ$. L. Escauriaza constructed an example to show that such system has a nonzero bounded solution when $θ<90^\circ$, and it's conjectured that the system has only zero solution for $θ>90^\circ$. Recently Lu Li and V. Šverák \cite{LlS} proved that the claim is true for $θ>109.5^\circ$. Here we improve their result and prove that only zero solution exists for this system when $θ>99^\circ$ by exploring a new type of Carleman inequality, which is of independent interest.

A penrose inequality for graphs over Kottler space

In this work, we prove an optimal Penrose inequality for asymptotically locally hyperbolic manifolds which can be realized as graphs over Kottler space. Such inequality relies heavily on an optimal weighted Alexandrov-Fenchel inequality for the mean convex star shaped hypersurfaces in Kottler space.

The GBC mass for asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds

The paper consists of two parts. In the first part, by using the Gauss-Bonnet curvature, which is a natural generalization of the scalar curvature, we introduce a higher order mass, the Gauss-Bonnet-Chern mass $m^{\H}_k$, for asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds and show that it is a geometric invariant. Moreover, we prove a positive mass theorem for this new mass for asymptotically hyperbolic graphs and establish a relationship between the corresponding Penrose type inequality for this mass and weighted Alexandrov-Fenchel inequalities in the hyperbolic space $\H^n$. In the second part, we establish these weighted Alexandrov-Fenchel inequalities in $\H^n$ for any horospherical convex hypersurface $Σ$. As an application, we obtain an optimal Penrose type inequality for the new mass defined in the first part for asymptotically hyperbolic graphs with a horizon type boundary $Σ$, provided that a dominant energy condition $\tilde L_k\ge0$ holds. Both inequalities are optimal.
