Abstract 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.

Extended carbon nanostructures, such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs), exhibit remarkable properties but are difficult to synthesize uniformly. Herein, we present a new class of carbon nanomaterials constructed via the bottom-up self-assembly of cylindrical, atomically-precise small molecules. Guided by supramolecular design principles and circle packing theory, we have designed and synthesized a fluorinated nanohoop that, in the solid-state, self-assembles into nanotube-like arrays with channel diameters of precisely 1.63 nm. A mild solution-casting technique is then used to construct vertical “forests” of these arrays on a highly-ordered pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) surface through epitaxial growth. Furthermore, we show that a basic property of nanohoops, fluorescence, is readily transferred to the bulk phase, implying that the properties of these materials can be directly altered via precise functionalization of their nanohoop building blocks. The strategy presented is expected to have broader applications in the development of new graphitic nanomaterials with π-rich cavities reminiscent of CNTs.

AbstractWe describe natural deformation classes of generalized Kähler structures using the Courant symmetry group, which determine natural extensions of the notions of Kähler class and Kähler cone to generalized Kähler geometry. We show that the generalized Kähler-Ricci flow preserves this generalized Kähler cone, and the underlying real Poisson tensor.

The purpose of this paper is to study the sliding mode control as a Ricci flow process in the context of a three-story building structure subjected to seismic waves. The stability conditions result from two Lyapunov functions, the first associated with slipping in a finite period of time and the second with convergence of trajectories to the desired state. Simulation results show that the Ricci flow control leads to minimization of the displacements of the floors.
