On continuous extension of uniformly continuous functions and metrics

T. Banakh, N. Brodskiy, I. Stasyuk, E. D. Tymchatyn (2009)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We prove that there exists a continuous regular, positive homogeneous extension operator for the family of all uniformly continuous bounded real-valued functions whose domains are closed subsets of a bounded metric space (X,d). In particular, this operator preserves Lipschitz functions. A similar result is obtained for partial metrics and ultrametrics.

Kähler-Einstein metrics singular along a smooth divisor

Raffe Mazzeo (1999)

Journées équations aux dérivées partielles

Similarity:

In this note we discuss some recent and ongoing joint work with Thalia Jeffres concerning the existence of Kähler-Einstein metrics on compact Kähler manifolds which have a prescribed incomplete singularity along a smooth divisor D . We shall begin with a general discussion of the problem, and give a rough outline of the “classical” proof of existence in the smooth case, due to Yau and Aubin, where no singularities are prescribed. Following this is a discussion of the geometry of the conical...

On metrics of characteristic zero

Władysław Kulpa (2013)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We introduce and study the concept of characteristic for metrics. It turns out that metrizable spaces endowed with an L*-operator which admit a metric of characteristic zero play an important role in the theory of fixed points. We prove the existence of such spaces among infinite-dimensional linear topological spaces.

Hermitian curvature flow

Jeffrey Streets, Gang Tian (2011)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We define a functional for Hermitian metrics using the curvature of the Chern connection. The Euler–Lagrange equation for this functional is an elliptic equation for Hermitian metrics. Solutions to this equation are related to Kähler–Einstein metrics, and are automatically Kähler–Einstein under certain conditions. Given this, a natural parabolic flow equation arises. We prove short time existence and regularity results for this flow, as well as stability for the flow near Kähler–Einstein...
