Functional inequalities and manifolds with nonnegative weighted Ricci curvature

Jing Mao (2020)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

We show that n -dimensional ( n 2 ) complete and noncompact metric measure spaces with nonnegative weighted Ricci curvature in which some Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg type inequality holds are isometric to the model metric measure n -space (i.e. the Euclidean metric n -space). We also show that the Euclidean metric spaces are the only complete and noncompact metric measure spaces of nonnegative weighted Ricci curvature satisfying some prescribed Sobolev type inequality.

The resolution of the bounded L 2 curvature conjecture in general relativity

Sergiu Klainerman, Igor Rodnianski, Jérémie Szeftel (2014-2015)

Séminaire Laurent Schwartz — EDP et applications

Similarity:

This paper reports on the recent proof of the bounded L 2 curvature conjecture. More precisely we show that the time of existence of a classical solution to the Einstein-vacuum equations depends only on the L 2 -norm of the curvature and a lower bound of the volume radius of the corresponding initial data set.

A new characterization of the sphere in R 3

Thomas Hasanis (1980)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

Let M be a closed connected surface in R 3 with positive Gaussian curvature K and let K I I be the curvature of its second fundamental form. It is shown that M is a sphere if K I I = c H K r , for some constants c and r, where H is the mean curvature of M.

A strong maximum principle for the Paneitz operator and a non-local flow for the Q -curvature

Matthew J. Gursky, Andrea Malchiodi (2015)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

In this paper we consider Riemannian manifolds ( M n , g ) of dimension n 5 , with semi-positive Q -curvature and non-negative scalar curvature. Under these assumptions we prove (i) the Paneitz operator satisfies a strong maximum principle; (ii) the Paneitz operator is a positive operator; and (iii) its Green’s function is strictly positive. We then introduce a non-local flow whose stationary points are metrics of constant positive Q -curvature. Modifying the test function construction of Esposito-Robert,...

Tangency properties of sets with finite geometric curvature energies

Sebastian Scholtes (2012)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We investigate tangential regularity properties of sets of fractal dimension, whose inverse thickness or integral Menger curvature energies are bounded. For the most prominent of these energies, the integral Menger curvature p α ( X ) : = X X X κ p ( x , y , z ) d X α ( x ) d X α ( y ) d X α ( z ) , where κ(x,y,z) is the inverse circumradius of the triangle defined by x,y and z, we find that p α ( X ) < for p ≥ 3α implies the existence of a weak approximate α-tangent at every point of the set, if some mild density properties hold. This includes the scale invariant...

Mean curvature properties for p -Laplace phase transitions

Berardino Sciunzi, Enrico Valdinoci (2005)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

This paper deals with phase transitions corresponding to an energy which is the sum of a kinetic part of p -Laplacian type and a double well potential h 0 with suitable growth conditions. We prove that level sets of solutions of Δ p u = h 0 ' ( u ) possessing a certain decay property satisfy a mean curvature equation in a suitable weak viscosity sense. From this, we show that, if the above level sets approach uniformly a hypersurface, the latter has zero mean curvature.

Global pinching theorems for minimal submanifolds in spheres

Kairen Cai (2003)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let M be a compact submanifold with parallel mean curvature vector embedded in the unit sphere S n + p ( 1 ) . By using the Sobolev inequalities of P. Li to get L p estimates for the norms of certain tensors related to the second fundamental form of M, we prove some rigidity theorems. Denote by H and | | σ | | p the mean curvature and the L p norm of the square length of the second fundamental form of M. We show that there is a constant C such that if | | σ | | n / 2 < C , then M is a minimal submanifold in the sphere S n + p - 1 ( 1 + H ² ) with sectional...

On a Semi-symmetric Metric Connection in an Almost Kenmotsu Manifold with Nullity Distributions

Gopal Ghosh, Uday Chand De (2016)

Acta Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Facultas Rerum Naturalium. Mathematica

Similarity:

We consider a semisymmetric metric connection in an almost Kenmotsu manifold with its characteristic vector field ξ belonging to the ( k , μ ) ' -nullity distribution and ( k , μ ) -nullity distribution respectively. We first obtain the expressions of the curvature tensor and Ricci tensor with respect to the semisymmetric metric connection in an almost Kenmotsu manifold with ξ belonging to ( k , μ ) ' - and ( k , μ ) -nullity distribution respectively. Then we characterize an almost Kenmotsu manifold with ξ belonging to ( k , μ ) ' -nullity...

Curvature measures and fractals

Steffen Winter

Similarity:

Curvature measures are an important tool in geometric measure theory and other fields of mathematics for describing the geometry of sets in Euclidean space. But the ’classical’ concepts of curvature are not directly applicable to fractal sets. We try to bridge this gap between geometric measure theory and fractal geometry by introducing a notion of curvature for fractals. For compact sets F d (e.g. fractals), for which classical geometric characteristics such as curvatures or Euler characteristic...

Singer-Thorpe bases for special Einstein curvature tensors in dimension 4

Zdeněk Dušek (2015)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let ( M , g ) be a 4-dimensional Einstein Riemannian manifold. At each point p of M , the tangent space admits a so-called Singer-Thorpe basis (ST basis) with respect to the curvature tensor R at p . In this basis, up to standard symmetries and antisymmetries, just 5 components of the curvature tensor R are nonzero. For the space of constant curvature, the group O ( 4 ) acts as a transformation group between ST bases at T p M and for the so-called 2-stein curvature tensors, the group Sp ( 1 ) SO ( 4 ) acts as a transformation...

The nonexistence of universal metric flows

Stefan Geschke (2018)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

We consider dynamical systems of the form ( X , f ) where X is a compact metric space and f : X X is either a continuous map or a homeomorphism and provide a new proof that there is no universal metric dynamical system of this kind. The same is true for metric minimal dynamical systems and for metric abstract ω -limit sets, answering a question by Will Brian.

Horizontal lift of symmetric connections to the bundle of volume forms 𝒱

Anna Gasior (2010)

Annales Universitatis Mariae Curie-Sklodowska, sectio A – Mathematica

Similarity:

In this paper we present the horizontal lift of a symmetric affine connection with respect to another affine connection to the bundle of volume forms  𝒱 and give formulas for its curvature tensor, Ricci tensor and the scalar curvature. Next, we give some properties of the horizontally lifted vector fields and certain infinitesimal transformations. At the end, we consider some substructures of a F ( 3 , 1 ) -structure on 𝒱 .
