Embedding of open riemannian manifolds by harmonic functions

Robert E. Greene, H. Wu (1975)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Let M be a noncompact Riemannian manifold of dimension n . Then there exists a proper embedding of M into R 2 n + 1 by harmonic functions on M . It is easy to find 2 n + 1 harmonic functions which give an embedding. However, it is more difficult to achieve properness. The proof depends on the theorems of Lax-Malgrange and Aronszajn-Cordes in the theory of elliptic equations.

End-to-end gluing of constant mean curvature hypersurfaces

Mohamed Jleli (2009)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

It was observed by R. Kusner and proved by J. Ratzkin that one can connect together two constant mean curvature surfaces having two ends with the same Delaunay parameter. This gluing procedure is known as a “end-to-end connected sum”. In this paper we generalize, in any dimension, this gluing procedure to construct new constant mean curvature hypersurfaces starting from some known hypersurfaces.

Energy and Morse index of solutions of Yamabe type problems on thin annuli

Mohammed Ben Ayed, Khalil El Mehdi, Mohameden Ould Ahmedou, Filomena Pacella (2005)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We consider the Yamabe type family of problems ( P ε ) : Δ u ε = u ε ( n + 2 ) / ( n 2 ) , u ε > 0 in A ε , u ε = 0 on A ε , where A ε is an annulus-shaped domain of n , n 3 , which becomes thinner as ε 0 . We show that for every solution u ε , the energy A ε | u | 2 as well as the Morse index tend to infinity as ε 0 . This is proved through a fine blow up analysis of appropriate scalings of solutions whose limiting profiles are regular, as well as of singular solutions of some elliptic problem on n , a half-space or an infinite strip. Our argument also involves a Liouville type theorem...

Energy machineries on a manifold; application to the construction of new energy representations of Gauge groups.

Jean-Yves Marion (1990)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

The introduction of the concepts of energy machinery and energy structure on a manifold makes it possible a large class of energy representations of gauge groups including, as a very particular case, the ones known up to now. By using an adaptation of methods initiated by I. M. Gelfand, we provide a sufficient condition for the irreducibility of these representations.
