A mean-value lemma and applications

Alessandro Savo (2001)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

We control the gap between the mean value of a function on a submanifold (or a point), and its mean value on any tube around the submanifold (in fact, we give the exact value of the second derivative of the gap). We apply this formula to obtain comparison theorems between eigenvalues of the Laplace-Beltrami operator, and then to compute the first three terms of the asymptotic time-expansion of a heat diffusion process on convex polyhedrons in euclidean spaces of arbitrary dimension. We also write...

A metric approach to a class of doubly nonlinear evolution equations and applications

Riccarda Rossi, Alexander Mielke, Giuseppe Savaré (2008)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

This paper deals with the analysis of a class of doubly nonlinear evolution equations in the framework of a general metric space. We propose for such equations a suitable metric formulation (which in fact extends the notion of Curve of Maximal Slopefor gradient flows in metric spaces, see [5]), and prove the existence of solutions for the related Cauchy problem by means of an approximation scheme by time discretization. Then, we apply our results to obtain the existence of solutions to abstract...

A microlocal F. and M. Riesz theorem with applications.

Raymondus G. M. Brummelhuis (1989)

Revista Matemática Iberoamericana

Consider, by way of example, the following F. and M. Riesz theorem for Rn: Let μ be a finite measure on Rn whose Fourier transform μ* is supported in a closed convex cone which is proper, that is, which contains no entire line. Then μ is absolutely continuous (cf. Stein and Weiss [SW]). Here, as in the sequel, absolutely continuous means with respect to Lebesque measure. In this theorem one can replace the condition on the support of μ* by a similar condition on the wave front set WF(μ) of μ, while...
