Abstract:By introducing a concept generalising several convexity notions we obtain a new Omori-Yaumaximum principle for harmonic maps defined on a stochastically complete manifold. Some of theapplications of this new maximum principle include conformal harmonic maps. an adaptation of aconiecture of Calabi, harmonic immersions with certain energy bounds, wedge theorems forminimal submanifolds o...
A number theory problem arising in quantum information theoryAbstractA maximal regular simplex inscribed in the set of quantum states has some engineering applications --- if it exists. Attempts to prove that it does, in all finite dimensional Hilbert spaces, have revealed an unexpected connection to an open problem in algebraic number theory. The whole story is quite new, and it it may have ra...
