Functional Inequalities for Metric-Preserving Functions with Respect to Intrinsic Metrics of Hyperbolic Type

We obtain functional inequalities for functions which are metric-preserving with respect to one of the following intrinsic metrics in a canonical plane domain: hyperbolic metric or some restrictions of the triangular ratio metric, respectively, of a Barrlund metric. The subadditivity turns out to be an essential property, being possessed by every function that is metric-preserving with respect to the hyperbolic metric and also by the composition with some specific function of every function that is metric-preserving with respect to some restriction of the triangular ratio metric or of a Barrlund metric. We partially answer an open question, proving that the hyperbolic arctangent is metric-preserving with respect to the restrictions of the triangular ratio metric on the unit disk to radial segments and to circles centered at origin.

Combinatorial Ricci Flows with Applications to the Hyperbolization of Cusped 3-Manifolds

In this paper, we adopt combinatorial Ricci flow to study the existence of hyperbolic structure on cusped 3-manifolds. The long-time existence and the uniqueness for the extended combinatorial Ricci flow are proven for general pseudo 3-manifolds. We prove that the extended combinatorial Ricci flow converges to a decorated hyperbolic polyhedral metric if and only if there exists a decorated hyperbolic polyhedral metric of zero Ricci curvature, and the flow converges exponentially fast in this case. For an ideally triangulated cusped 3-manifold admitting a complete hyperbolic metric, the flow provides an effective algorithm for finding the hyperbolic metric.

Quasiconformality and hyperbolic skew

We prove that if $f:\mathbb{B}^n \to \mathbb{B}^n$ , for n ≥ 2, is a homeomorphism with bounded skew over all equilateral hyperbolic triangles, then f is in fact quasiconformal. Conversely, we show that if $f:\mathbb{B}^n \to \mathbb{B}^n$ is quasiconformal then f is η-quasisymmetric in the hyperbolic metric, where η depends only on n and K. We obtain the same result for hyperbolic n-manifolds. Analogous results in $\mathbb{R}^n$ , and metric spaces that behave like $\mathbb{R}^n$ , are known, but as far as we are aware, these are the first such results in the hyperbolic setting, which is the natural metric to use on $\mathbb{B}^n$ .

Hyperbolic Harmonic Functions and Hyperbolic Brownian Motion

We study harmonic functions with respect to the Riemannian metric $$\begin{aligned} ds^{2}=\frac{dx_{1}^{2}+\cdots +dx_{n}^{2}}{x_{n}^{\frac{2\alpha }{n-2}}} \end{aligned}$$ d s 2 = d x 1 2 + ⋯ + d x n 2 x n 2 α n - 2 in the upper half space $$\mathbb {R}_{+}^{n}=\{\left( x_{1},\ldots ,x_{n}\right) \in \mathbb {R}^{n}:x_{n}>0\}$$ R + n = { x 1 , … , x n ∈ R n : x n > 0 } . They are called $$\alpha $$ α -hyperbolic harmonic. An important result is that a function f is $$\alpha $$ α -hyperbolic harmonic íf and only if the function $$g\left( x\right) =x_{n}^{-\frac{ 2-n+\alpha }{2}}f\left( x\right) $$ g x = x n - 2 - n + α 2 f x is the eigenfunction of the hyperbolic Laplace operator $$\bigtriangleup _{h}=x_{n}^{2}\triangle -\left( n-2\right) x_{n}\frac{\partial }{\partial x_{n}}$$ △ h = x n 2 ▵ - n - 2 x n ∂ ∂ x n corresponding to the eigenvalue $$\ \frac{1}{4}\left( \left( \alpha +1\right) ^{2}-\left( n-1\right) ^{2}\right) =0$$ 1 4 α + 1 2 - n - 1 2 = 0 . This means that in case $$\alpha =n-2$$ α = n - 2 , the $$n-2$$ n - 2 -hyperbolic harmonic functions are harmonic with respect to the hyperbolic metric of the Poincaré upper half-space. We are presenting some connections of $$\alpha $$ α -hyperbolic functions to the generalized hyperbolic Brownian motion. These results are similar as in case of harmonic functions with respect to usual Laplace and Brownian motion.

Hyperbolic geometry of gene expression

Understanding the patterns of gene expression is key to elucidating the differences between cell types and across disease conditions. The overwhelmingly large number of genes involved generally makes this problem intractable. Yet, we find that gene expression patterns in five different data datasets can all be described using a small number of variables. These variables describe differences between cells according to a hyperbolic metric. We reach this conclusion by developing methods that, starting with an initial assumption of a Euclidean geometry, can detect the presence of other geometries in the data. The Euclidean metric is used in most of current studies of gene expression, primarily because it is difficult to use other non-linear metrics in high dimensional spaces. The hyperbolic metric is much more suitable for describing data produced by a hierarchically organized network, which is relevant for many biological processes. We find that the hyperbolic effects, but not the space dimensionality, increase with the number of genes that are taken into account. The hyperbolic curvature was the smallest for mouse embryonic stem cells, stronger for mouse kidney, lung and brain cells, and reached the largest value in a set of human cells integrated from multiple sources. We show that taking into account hyperbolic geometry strongly improves the visualization of gene expression data compared to leading visualization methods. These results demonstrate the advantages of knowing the underlying geometry when analyzing high-dimensional data.

The Harmonic Mapping Whose Hopf Differential Is a Constant

Suppose that h(z) is a harmonic mapping from the unit disk D to itself with respect to the hyperbolic metric. If the Hopf differential of h(z) is a constant c>0, the Beltrami coefficient μ(z) of h(z) is radially symmetric and takes the maximum at z=0. Furthermore, the mapping γ:c→μ(0) is increasing and gives a homeomorphism from (0,+∞) to (0,1).

Extension Operators for Biholomorphic Mappings

Suppose that $D\subset \mathbb{C}$ is a simply connected subdomain containing the origin and $f(z_{1})$ is a normalized convex (resp., starlike) function on $D$. Let $$\begin{eqnarray}\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FA}_{N}(D)=\bigg\{(z_{1},w_{1},\ldots ,w_{k})\in \mathbb{C}\times \mathbb{C}^{n_{1}}\times \cdots \times \mathbb{C}^{n_{k}}:\Vert w_{1}\Vert _{p_{1}}^{p_{1}}+\cdots +\Vert w_{k}\Vert _{p_{k}}^{p_{k}}<\frac{1}{\unicode[STIX]{x1D706}_{D}(z_{1})}\bigg\},\end{eqnarray}$$ where $p_{j}\geqslant 1$, $N=1+n_{1}+\cdots +n_{k}$, $w_{1}\in \mathbb{C}^{n_{1}},\ldots ,w_{k}\in \mathbb{C}^{n_{k}}$ and $\unicode[STIX]{x1D706}_{D}$ is the density of the hyperbolic metric on $D$. In this paper, we prove that $$\begin{eqnarray}\unicode[STIX]{x1D6F7}_{N,1/p_{1},\ldots ,1/p_{k}}(f)(z_{1},w_{1},\ldots ,w_{k})=(f(z_{1}),(f^{\prime }(z_{1}))^{1/p_{1}}w_{1},\ldots ,(f^{\prime }(z_{1}))^{1/p_{k}}w_{k})\end{eqnarray}$$ is a normalized convex (resp., starlike) mapping on $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FA}_{N}(D)$. If $D$ is the unit disk, then our result reduces to Gong and Liu via a new method. Moreover, we give a new operator for convex mapping construction on an unbounded domain in $\mathbb{C}^{2}$. Using a geometric approach, we prove that $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6F7}_{N,1/p_{1},\ldots ,1/p_{k}}(f)$ is a spiral-like mapping of type $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}$ when $f$ is a spiral-like function of type $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}$ on the unit disk.

Counting One-Sided Simple Closed Geodesics on Fuchsian Thrice Punctured Projective Planes

We prove that there is a true asymptotic formula for the number of one-sided simple closed curves of length $\leq L$ on any Fuchsian real projective plane with three points removed. The exponent of growth is independent of the hyperbolic metric, and it is noninteger, in contrast to counting results of Mirzakhani for simple closed curves on orientable Fuchsian surfaces.
