The integrability of a field of endomorphisms

Gerard Thompson (2002)

Mathematica Bohemica

A Theorem is proved that gives intrinsic necessary and sufficient conditions for the integrability of a zero-deformable field of endomorphisms. The Theorem is proved by reducing to a special case in which the endomorphism field is nilpotent. Many arguments used in the derivation of similar results are simplified, principally by means of using quotient rather than subspace constructions.

The intrinsic torsion of almost quaternion-Hermitian manifolds

Francisco Martín Cabrera, Andrew Swann (2008)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We study the intrinsic torsion of almost quaternion-Hermitian manifolds via the exterior algebra. In particular, we show how it is determined by particular three-forms formed from simple combinations of the exterior derivatives of the local Kähler forms. This gives a practical method to compute the intrinsic torsion and is applied in a number of examples. In addition we find simple characterisations of HKT and QKT geometries entirely in the exterior algebra and compute how the intrinsic torsion...

The inverse mean curvature flow and p -harmonic functions

Roger Moser (2007)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We consider the level set formulation of the inverse mean curvature flow. We establish a connection to the problem of p -harmonic functions and give a new proof for the existence of weak solutions.

The iterated version of a translative integral formula for sets of positive reach

Rataj, Jan (1997)

Proceedings of the 16th Winter School "Geometry and Physics"

By taking into account the work of J. Rataj and M. Zähle [Geom. Dedicata 57, 259-283 (1995; Zbl 0844.53050)], R. Schneider and W. Weil [Math. Nachr. 129, 67-80 (1986; Zbl 0602.52003)], W. Weil [Math. Z. 205, 531-549 (1990; Zbl 0705.52006)], an integral formula is obtained here by using the technique of rectifiable currents.This is an iterated version of the principal kinematic formula for q sets of positive reach and generalized curvature measures.
