Abstract We define a type of modulus$$\operatorname {dMod}_p$$ for Lipschitz surfaces based on$$L^p$$ -integrable measurable differential forms, generalizing the vector modulus of Aikawa and Ohtsuka. We show that this modulus satisfies a homological duality theorem, where for Hölder conjugate exponents$$p, q \in (1, \infty )$$ , every relative Lipschitzk-homology classchas a unique dual Lipschitz$$(n-k)$$ -homology class$$c'$$ such that$$\operatorname {dMod}_p^{1/p}(c) \operatorname {dMod}_q^{1/q}(c') = 1$$ and the Poincaré dual ofcmaps$$c'$$ to 1. As$$\operatorname {dMod}_p$$ is larger than the classical surface modulus$$\operatorname {Mod}_p$$ , we immediately recover a more general version of the estimate$$\operatorname {Mod}_p^{1/p}(c) \operatorname {Mod}_q^{1/q}(c') \le 1$$ , which appears in works by Freedman and He and by Lohvansuu. Our theory is formulated in the general setting of Lipschitz Riemannian manifolds, though our results appear new in the smooth setting as well. We also provide a characterization of closed and exact Sobolev forms on Lipschitz manifolds based on integration over Lipschitzk-chains.

Curvature and sharp growth rates of log-quasimodes on compact manifolds
Abstract We obtain new optimal estimates for the$$L^{2}(M)\to L^{q}(M)$$ ,$$q\in (2,q_{c}]$$ ,$$q_{c}=2(n+1)/(n-1)$$ , operator norms of spectral projection operators associated with spectral windows$$[\lambda ,\lambda +\delta (\lambda )]$$ , with$$\delta (\lambda )=O((\log \lambda )^{-1})$$ on compact Riemannian manifolds$$(M,g)$$ of dimension$$n\ge 2$$ all of whose sectional curvatures are nonpositive or negative. We show that these two different types of estimates are saturated on flat manifolds or manifolds all of whose sectional curvatures are negative. This allows us to classify compact space forms in terms of the size of$$L^{q}$$ -norms of quasimodes for each Lebesgue exponent$$q\in (2,q_{c}]$$ , even though it is impossible to distinguish between ones of negative or zero curvature sectional curvature for any$$q>q_{c}$$ .

A<sc>bstract</sc> In this paper we explorepp→W±(ℓ±ν)γto$$ \mathcal{O}\left(1/{\Lambda}^4\right) $$ in the SMEFT expansion. Calculations to this order are necessary to properly capture SMEFT contributions that grow with energy, as the interference between energy-enhanced SMEFT effects at$$ \mathcal{O}\left(1/{\Lambda}^2\right) $$ and the Standard Model is suppressed. We find that there are several dimension eight operators that interfere with the Standard Model and lead to the same energy growth, ~$$ \mathcal{O}\left({E}^4/{\Lambda}^4\right) $$ , as dimension six squared. While energy-enhanced SMEFT contributions are a main focus, our calculation includes the complete set of$$ \mathcal{O}\left(1/{\Lambda}^4\right) $$ SMEFT effects consistent with U(3)5flavor symmetry. Additionally, we include the decay of theW±→ ℓ±ν, making the calculation actually$$ \overline{q}{q}^{\prime}\to {\ell}^{\pm}\nu \gamma $$ . As such, we are able to study the impact of non-resonant SMEFT operators, such as$$ \left({L}^{\dagger }{\overline{\sigma}}^{\mu }{\tau}^IL\right)\left({Q}^{\dagger }{\overline{\sigma}}^{\nu }{\tau}^IQ\right) $$ Bμν, which contribute to$$ \overline{q}{q}^{\prime}\to {\ell}^{\pm}\nu \gamma $$ directly and not to$$ \overline{q}{q}^{\prime}\to {W}^{\pm}\gamma $$ . We show several distributions to illustrate the shape differences of the different contributions.more » « less

We show that for any even log-concave probability measure on , any pair of symmetric convex sets and , and any , where . This constitutes progress towards the dimensional Brunn-Minkowski conjecture (see Richard J. Gardner and Artem Zvavitch [Tran. Amer. Math. Soc. 362 (2010), pp. 5333–5353]; Andrea Colesanti, Galyna V. Livshyts, Arnaud Marsiglietti [J. Funct. Anal. 273 (2017), pp. 1120–1139]). Moreover, our bound improves for various special classes of log-concave measures.more » « less

Abstract The radiation of steady surface gravity waves by a uniform stream$$U_{0}$$ over locally confined (width$$L$$ ) smooth topography is analyzed based on potential flow theory. The linear solution to this classical problem is readily found by Fourier transforms, and the nonlinear response has been studied extensively by numerical methods. Here, an asymptotic analysis is made for subcritical flow$$D/\lambda > 1$$ in the low-Froude-number ($$F^{2} \equiv \lambda /L \ll 1$$ ) limit, where$$\lambda = U_{0}^{2} /g$$ is the lengthscale of radiating gravity waves and$$D$$ is the uniform water depth. In this regime, the downstream wave amplitude, although formally exponentially small with respect to$$F$$ , is determined by a fully nonlinear mechanism even for small topography amplitude. It is argued that this mechanism controls the wave response for a broad range of flow conditions, in contrast to linear theory which has very limited validity.more » « less

Abstract Let$$(h_I)$$ denote the standard Haar system on [0, 1], indexed by$$I\in \mathcal {D}$$ , the set of dyadic intervals and$$h_I\otimes h_J$$ denote the tensor product$$(s,t)\mapsto h_I(s) h_J(t)$$ ,$$I,J\in \mathcal {D}$$ . We consider a class of two-parameter function spaces which are completions of the linear span$$\mathcal {V}(\delta ^2)$$ of$$h_I\otimes h_J$$ ,$$I,J\in \mathcal {D}$$ . This class contains all the spaces of the formX(Y), whereXandYare either the Lebesgue spaces$$L^p[0,1]$$ or the Hardy spaces$$H^p[0,1]$$ ,$$1\le p < \infty $$ . We say that$$D:X(Y)\rightarrow X(Y)$$ is a Haar multiplier if$$D(h_I\otimes h_J) = d_{I,J} h_I\otimes h_J$$ , where$$d_{I,J}\in \mathbb {R}$$ , and ask which more elementary operators factor throughD. A decisive role is played by theCapon projection$$\mathcal {C}:\mathcal {V}(\delta ^2)\rightarrow \mathcal {V}(\delta ^2)$$ given by$$\mathcal {C} h_I\otimes h_J = h_I\otimes h_J$$ if$$|I|\le |J|$$ , and$$\mathcal {C} h_I\otimes h_J = 0$$ if$$|I| > |J|$$ , as our main result highlights: Given any bounded Haar multiplier$$D:X(Y)\rightarrow X(Y)$$ , there exist$$\lambda ,\mu \in \mathbb {R}$$ such that$$\begin{aligned} \lambda \mathcal {C} + \mu ({{\,\textrm{Id}\,}}-\mathcal {C})\text { approximately 1-projectionally factors through }D, \end{aligned}$$ i.e., for all$$\eta > 0$$ , there exist bounded operatorsA, Bso thatABis the identity operator$${{\,\textrm{Id}\,}}$$ ,$$\Vert A\Vert \cdot \Vert B\Vert = 1$$ and$$\Vert \lambda \mathcal {C} + \mu ({{\,\textrm{Id}\,}}-\mathcal {C}) - ADB\Vert < \eta $$ . Additionally, if$$\mathcal {C}$$ is unbounded onX(Y), then$$\lambda = \mu $$ and then$${{\,\textrm{Id}\,}}$$ either factors throughDor$${{\,\textrm{Id}\,}}-D$$ .more » « less
