Cohomology and Immersed Curves
We introduce a new cohomology-theoretic method for classifying generic immersed curves in closed compact surfaces by using Gauss codes. This subsumes a result of J.S. Carter on classifying immersed curves in oriented compact surfaces, and provides a criterion for when an immersion is two-colorable. We note an application to twisted virtual link theory.
متن کاملIsoperimetric Inequalities for Immersed Closed Spherical Curves
Let a: Sl ->S2 be a C2 immersion with length L and total curvature K . If a is regularly homotopic to a circle traversed once then L2 + K2 > 4n2 with equality if and only if a is a circle traversed once. If a has nonnegative geodesic curvature and multiple points then L + K > An with equality if and only if a is a great circle traversed twice.
متن کاملCurve Space: Classifying Curves on Surfaces
We design signatures for curves defined on genus zero surfaces. The signature classifies curves according to the conformal geometry of the given curves and their embedded surface. Based on Teichmüller theory, our signature describes not only the curve shape but also the intrinsic relationship between the curve and its embedded surface. Furthermore, the signature metric is stable, it is close to...
متن کاملA Dirichlet process model for classifying and forecasting epidemic curves
BACKGROUND A forecast can be defined as an endeavor to quantitatively estimate a future event or probabilities assigned to a future occurrence. Forecasting stochastic processes such as epidemics is challenging since there are several biological, behavioral, and environmental factors that influence the number of cases observed at each point during an epidemic. However, accurate forecasts of epid...
متن کاملGeodesic Completeness for Sobolev Metrics on the Space of Immersed Plane Curves
We study properties of Sobolev-type metrics on the space of immersed plane curves. We show that the geodesic equation for Sobolev-type metrics with constant coefficients of order 2 and higher is globally well-posed for smooth initial data as well as for initial data in certain Sobolev spaces. Thus the space of closed plane curves equipped with such a metric is geodesically complete. We find low...
