Abstract:
The paper establishes the form of the Gaussian curvature functional defined on the class of infinitely differentiable horizontal surfaces of positive Gaussian curvature. With respect to admissible surfaces, it is assumed that they admit a global semi-geodetic parametrization. The paper proves that the first variation of the functional on the class of variations of admissible surfaces admitting connections between the coefficients of the first quadratic form and their geodesic lines similar to the axisymmetric case is determined by the Gaussian curvature of the varied surface.

AbstractOne of the most successful method in quantifying the structures in the Cosmic Web is the Minkowski Functionals. In 3D, there are four minkowski Functionals: Area, Volume, Integrated Mean Curvature and the Integrated Gaussian Curvature. For defining the Minkowski Functionals one should define a surface. We have developed a method based on Marching cube 33 algorithm to generate a surface from a discrete data sets. Next we calculate the Minkowski Functionals and Shapefinder from the triangulated polyhedral surface. Applying this methodology to different data sets , we obtain interesting r

Abstract:
Migration velocity can be estimated from seismic data by analyzing, focusing, and defocusing of residual-migrated images. The accuracy of these velocity estimates is limited by the inherent ambiguity between velocity and reflector curvature. However, velocity resolution improves when reflectors with different curvatures are present. Image focusing is measured by evaluating coherency across structural dips, in addition to coherency across aperture/azimuth angles. The inherent ambiguity between velocity and reflector curvature is directly tackled by introducing a curvature correction into the co

AbstractChern and Hamilton considered the integral of the Webster scalar curvature as a functional on the set of CR-structures on a compact 3-dimensional contact manifold. Critical points of this functional can be viewed as Riemannian metrics associated to the contact structure for which the characteristic vector field generates a 1-parameter group of isometries i.e. K-contact metrics. Tanno defined a higher dimensional generalization of the Webster scalar curvature, computed the critical point condition of the corresponding integral functional and found that it is not the K-contact condition.

Abstract:
An anisotropic area functional is often used as a model for the free energy of a crystal surface. For models of faceting, the anisotropy is typically such that the functional becomes non-convex, and then it may be appropriate to regularize it with an additional term involving curvature. When the weight of the curvature term tends to zero, this gives rise to a singular perturbation problem.The structure of this problem is comparable to the theory of phase transitions studied first by Modica and Mortola. Their ideas are also useful in this context, but they have to be combined with adequate geom

AbstractIn this paper, we study, using critical point theory for strongly indefinite functionals, the Neumann problem associated to some prescribed mean curvature problems in a FLRW spacetime with one spatial dimension. We assume that the warping function is even and positive and the prescribed mean curvature function is odd and sublinear. Then, we show that our problem has infinitely many solutions. The keypoint is that our problem has a Hamiltonian formulation. The main tool is an abstract result of Clark type for strongly indefinite functionals.

Abstract It is a fundamental unsolved question in general relativity how to unambiguously characterize the effective collective dynamics of an ensemble of fluid elements sourcing the local geometry, in the absence of exact symmetries. In a cosmological context this is sometimes referred to as the averaging problem. At the heart of this problem in relativity is the non-uniqueness of the choice of foliation within which the statistical properties of the local spacetime are quantified, which can lead to ambiguity in the formulated average theory. This has led to debate in the literature on how to

Abstract:
Equations of motion and energy functionals are derived for a three-dimensional coordinate system especially useful for analyzing the static and dynamic behavior of arbitrarily thick shells of revolution having variable thickness. The field equations are utilized to express them in terms of displacement components.

AbstractThis survey is a presentation of the five lectures on Riemannian contact geometry that the author gave at the conference “RIEMain in Contact”, 18-22 June 2018 in Cagliari, Sardinia. The author was particularly pleased to be asked to give this presentation and appreciated the organizers’ kindness in dedicating the conference to him. Georges Reeb once made the comment that the mere existence of a contact form on a manifold should in some sense “tighten up” the manifold. The statement seemed quite pertinent for a conference that brought together both geometers and topologists working on c
