A quantitative inequality for general area-minimizing hypercones
Gongping Niu
Let be an area-minimizing hypercone. The cone may have nonisolated singularities. We prove that there is a constant $c_{\mathbf{C}}>0…
Generic Uniqueness of Isoperimetric Regions in Arbitrary Dimension
Gongping Niu
Let be a closed, connected smooth manifold, where . For each prescribed volume fraction , we prove that the isoperimetric region o…
Strict Stability and Strict Minimality of Regular Area-Minimizing Hypercones: A Quantitative Characterization
Gongping Niu
Let be a regular area-minimizing hypercone. We first prove that is simultaneously strictly stable and strictly minimizi…
Isoperimetry by stretching
Kobe Marshall-Stevens, Gongping Niu
We construct isoperimetric regions from separating hypersurfaces in closed manifolds. This yields isoperimetric boundaries exhibiting a wide variety of topological types and singul…
Generic regularity of isoperimetric regions in dimension eight
Kobe Marshall-Stevens, Gongping Niu, Davide Parise
We establish generic regularity results for isoperimetric regions in closed Riemannian manifolds of dimension eight. In particular, we show that every isoperimetric region has a sm…
Existence of singular isoperimetric regions
Gongping Niu
It is well known that isoperimetric regions in a smooth compact -manifold are smooth, up to a closed set of codimension at most . In this note, we first construct an -…
A Study of finitely generated Free Groups via the Fundamental Groups
Gongping Niu
Free groups have many applications in Algebraic Topology. In this paper I specifically study the finitely generated free groups by using the covering spaces and fundamental groups.…
