Browder was known to his colleagues as a leading topologist and one of the inventors of surgery theory, which unifies methods and techniques from several branches of topology and brings them to bear ...

The class of univariate elliptic distributions provides insight into the ideas on statistical manifolds of Amari (1985) and Lauritzen (1984). Conditions for conjugate symmetry and flatness are derived ...

CAST also announced China's top 10 industrial technology issues, which require a focus on overcoming critical manufacturing ...

Current Projects • CRC 1442: Geometry: Deformation and Rigidity - B01: Curvature and Symmetry The question of how far geometric properties of a manifold determine its global topology is a classical ...

We give a sufficient condition in order that a harmonic map from a compact Kähler manifold with negative first Chern class to a compact hyperbolic Riemann surface be $\pm$ holomorphic. The above ...
