Numerical Ricci-DeTurck flow
We present a numerical method for the computation of
n-dimensional Ricci-DeTurck flow.
Ricci flow is a geometric flow deforming a time-dependent
metric on a Riemannian manifold
proportional to its Ricci curvature. Ricci-DeTurck flow is
a reparametrization of this flow
using the harmonic map flow in order to get a strictly
parabolic PDE.
Our numerical method is based on the assumption
that the manifold is orientable and differentiably
embeddable in \R^{n+1}.
By this means, it is possible to do computations in the
basis of the ambient space.
A weak formulation of Ricci-DeTurck flow is derived such
that it only contains tangential gradients.
A spatial discretization of this formulation with finite
elements on polyhedral hypersurfaces
and an implicit time discretization lead to an algorithm
for computing Ricci-DeTurck flow.
We have performed numerical tests for two and three
dimensional hypersurfaces
using piecewise linear finite elements.
The generalization to non-orientable hypersurfaces of
higher codimensions is still open. |

Point-singularities of Willmore Surfaces [new and augmented version]
We consider a branched Willmore surface immersed in $\R^{m\ge3}$ with square-integrable second fundamental form. We develop around each branch point local asymptotics for the immersion, its first, and its second derivatives. These expansions are given in terms of a first residue" (constant vector in $\R^m$) and in terms ofsecond residues" (integer-valued). These residues are computed as circulation integrals around each branch point. We then deduce explicit point removability conditions in terms of the residues, ensuring that the (branched) immersion is smooth across its branch points. Do residues pass through the weak limit? We'll see...
