New characterizations of linear Weingarten hypersurfaces immersed in the hyperbolic space

Cícero P. Aquino, Henrique F. de Lima (2015)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

In this paper, we deal with complete linear Weingarten hypersurfaces immersed in the hyperbolic space n + 1 , that is, complete hypersurfaces of n + 1 whose mean curvature H and normalized scalar curvature R satisfy R = a H + b for some a , b . In this setting, under appropriate restrictions on the mean curvature and on the norm of the traceless part of the second fundamental form, we prove that such a hypersurface must be either totally umbilical or isometric to a hyperbolic cylinder of n + 1 . Furthermore,...

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.

Some aspects of the variational nature of mean curvature flow

Giovanni Bellettini, Luca Mugnai (2008)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We show that the classical solution of the heat equation can be seen as the minimizer of a suitable functional defined in space-time. Using similar ideas, we introduce a functional on the class of space-time tracks of moving hypersurfaces, and we study suitable minimization problems related with . We show some connections between minimizers of and mean curvature flow.

The inverse mean curvature flow and p -harmonic functions

Roger Moser (2007)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

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 Geometry of Differential Harnack Estimates

Sebastian Helmensdorfer, Peter Topping (2011-2012)

Séminaire de théorie spectrale et géométrie

Similarity:

In this short note, we hope to give a rapid induction for non-experts into the world of Differential Harnack inequalities, which have been so influential in geometric analysis and probability theory over the past few decades. At the coarsest level, these are often mysterious-looking inequalities that hold for ‘positive’ solutions of some parabolic PDE, and can be verified quickly by grinding out a computation and applying a maximum principle. In this note we emphasise the geometry behind...

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,...

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.

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...

Hyperbolic spaces in Teichmüller spaces

Christopher J. Leininger, Saul Schleimer (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We prove, for any n , that there is a closed connected orientable surface S so that the hyperbolic space n almost-isometrically embeds into the Teichmüller space of S , with quasi-convex image lying in the thick part. As a consequence, n quasi-isometrically embeds in the curve complex of S .

On the Picard problem for hyperbolic differential equations in Banach spaces

Antoni Sadowski (2003)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

Similarity:

B. Rzepecki in [5] examined the Darboux problem for the hyperbolic equation z x y = f ( x , y , z , z x y ) on the quarter-plane x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0 via a fixed point theorem of B.N. Sadovskii [6]. The aim of this paper is to study the Picard problem for the hyperbolic equation z x y = f ( x , y , z , z x , z x y ) using a method developed by A. Ambrosetti [1], K. Goebel and W. Rzymowski [2] and B. Rzepecki [5].

Computing the determinantal representations of hyperbolic forms

Mao-Ting Chien, Hiroshi Nakazato (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

The numerical range of an n × n matrix is determined by an n degree hyperbolic ternary form. Helton-Vinnikov confirmed conversely that an n degree hyperbolic ternary form admits a symmetric determinantal representation. We determine the types of Riemann theta functions appearing in the Helton-Vinnikov formula for the real symmetric determinantal representation of hyperbolic forms for the genus g = 1 . We reformulate the Fiedler-Helton-Vinnikov formulae for the genus g = 0 , 1 , and present an elementary...

A characterization of n-dimensional hypersurfaces in R n + 1 with commuting curvature operators

Yulian T. Tsankov (2005)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

Let Mⁿ be a hypersurface in R n + 1 . We prove that two classical Jacobi curvature operators J x and J y commute on Mⁿ, n > 2, for all orthonormal pairs (x,y) and for all points p ∈ M if and only if Mⁿ is a space of constant sectional curvature. Also we consider all hypersurfaces with n ≥ 4 satisfying the commutation relation ( K x , y K z , u ) ( u ) = ( K z , u K x , y ) ( u ) , where K x , y ( u ) = R ( x , y , u ) , for all orthonormal tangent vectors x,y,z,w and for all points p ∈ M.

Local gradient estimates of p -harmonic functions, 1 / H -flow, and an entropy formula

Brett Kotschwar, Lei Ni (2009)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

In the first part of this paper, we prove local interior and boundary gradient estimates for p -harmonic functions on general Riemannian manifolds. With these estimates, following the strategy in recent work of R. Moser, we prove an existence theorem for weak solutions to the level set formulation of the 1 / H (inverse mean curvature) flow for hypersurfaces in ambient manifolds satisfying a sharp volume growth assumption. In the second part of this paper, we consider two parabolic analogues...

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...
