Sublinear eigenvalue problems on compact Riemannian manifolds with applications in Emden-Fowler equations

Alexandru Kristály, Vicenţiu Rădulescu (2009)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian manifold without boundary, with dim M ≥ 3, and f: ℝ → ℝ a continuous function which is sublinear at infinity. By various variational approaches, existence of multiple solutions of the eigenvalue problem $- Δ_{g} ω + α (σ) ω = K ̃ (λ, σ) f (ω)$ , σ ∈ M, ω ∈ H₁²(M), is established for certain eigenvalues λ > 0, depending on further properties of f and on explicit forms of the function K̃. Here, $Δ_{g}$ stands for the Laplace-Beltrami operator on (M,g), and α, K̃ are smooth positive functions. These...

Riemannian semisymmetric almost Kenmotsu manifolds and nullity distributions

Yaning Wang, Ximin Liu (2014)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

We consider an almost Kenmotsu manifold $M^{2 n + 1}$ with the characteristic vector field ξ belonging to the (k,μ)’-nullity distribution and h’ ≠ 0 and we prove that $M^{2 n + 1}$ is locally isometric to the Riemannian product of an (n+1)-dimensional manifold of constant sectional curvature -4 and a flat n-dimensional manifold, provided that $M^{2 n + 1}$ is ξ-Riemannian-semisymmetric. Moreover, if $M^{2 n + 1}$ is a ξ-Riemannian-semisymmetric almost Kenmotsu manifold such that ξ belongs to the (k,μ)-nullity distribution, we prove...

Collapse of warped submersions

Szymon M. Walczak (2006)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

We generalize the concept of warped manifold to Riemannian submersions π: M → B between two compact Riemannian manifolds $(M, g_{M})$ and $(B, g_{B})$ in the following way. If f: B → (0,∞) is a smooth function on B which is extended to a function f̂ = f ∘ π constant along the fibres of π then we define a new metric $g_{f}$ on M by $g_{f} |_{\times} \equiv g_{M} |_{\times}, g_{f} {|_{\times T M ̂} \equiv f ̂ ² g_{M} |}_{\times T M ̂}$ , where and denote the bundles of horizontal and vertical vectors. The manifold $(M, g_{f})$ obtained that way is called a warped submersion. The function f is called a warping function. We show...

On $G$ -sets and isospectrality

Ori Parzanchevski (2013)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

We study finite $G$ -sets and their tensor product with Riemannian manifolds, and obtain results on isospectral quotients and covers. In particular, we show the following: If $M$ is a compact connected Riemannian manifold (or orbifold) whose fundamental group has a finite non-cyclic quotient, then $M$ has isospectral non-isometric covers.

Similarity:

In this paper we solve the problem of finding integrals of equations determining the Killing tensors on an $n$ -dimensional differentiable manifold $M$ endowed with an equiaffine $S L (n,)$ -structure and discuss possible applications of obtained results in Riemannian geometry.

Almost invariant submanifolds for compact group actions

Alan Weinstein (2000)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We define a $C^{1}$ distance between submanifolds of a riemannian manifold $M$ and show that, if a compact submanifold $N$ is not moved too much under the isometric action of a compact group $G$ , there is a $G$ -invariant submanifold $C^{1}$ -close to $N$ . The proof involves a procedure of averaging nearby submanifolds of riemannian manifolds in a symmetric way. The procedure combines averaging techniques of Cartan, Grove/Karcher, and de la Harpe/Karoubi with Whitney’s idea of realizing submanifolds as zeros...

Global existence of solutions to Schrödinger equations on compact riemannian manifolds below $H^{1}$

Sijia Zhong (2010)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

In this paper, we will study global well-posedness for the cubic defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger equations on the compact Riemannian manifold without boundary, below the energy space, i.e. $s < 1$ , under some bilinear Strichartz assumption. We will find some $\tilde{s} < 1$ , such that the solution is global for $s > \tilde{s}$ .

Complete Riemannian manifolds admitting a pair of Einstein-Weyl structures

Amalendu Ghosh (2016)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

We prove that a connected Riemannian manifold admitting a pair of non-trivial Einstein-Weyl structures $(g, \pm ω)$ with constant scalar curvature is either Einstein, or the dual field of $ω$ is Killing. Next, let $(M^{n}, g)$ be a complete and connected Riemannian manifold of dimension at least $3$ admitting a pair of Einstein-Weyl structures $(g, \pm ω)$ . Then the Einstein-Weyl vector field $E$ (dual to the $1$ -form $ω$ ) generates an infinitesimal harmonic transformation if and only if $E$ is Killing.

On the $L^{p}$ index of spin Dirac operators on conical manifolds

André Legrand, Sergiu Moroianu (2006)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We compute the index of the Dirac operator on a spin Riemannian manifold with conical singularities, acting from $L^{p} (Σ ⁺)$ to $L^{q} (Σ ¯)$ with p,q > 1. When 1 + n/p - n/q > 0 we obtain the usual Atiyah-Patodi-Singer formula, but with a spectral cut at (n+1)/2 - n/q instead of 0 in the definition of the eta invariant. In particular we reprove Chou’s formula for the L² index. For 1 + n/p - n/q ≤ 0 the index formula contains an extra term related to the Calderón projector.

Grassmann manifold $V_{3}^{4}$ in the projective space $P_{7}$ with characteristics consisting of a quadric and two planes

Josef Vala (1993)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

Some results in the geometry of four-parametric manifolds of three-dimensional spaces in the projective space $P_{7}$ are found. The properties of such a manifold $V_{3}^{4}$ with characteristics consisting of a quadric and two planes are studied. The properties of the manifold dual to $V_{3}^{4}$ are found. Some results in the geometry of linear spaces from [1],[2],[3],[4] are used. The notation of the quantities is the same as in [4].

Remarks on the behaviour of higher-order derivations on the gluing of differential spaces

Krzysztof Drachal (2015)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

This paper is about some geometric properties of the gluing of order $k$ in the category of Sikorski differential spaces, where $k$ is assumed to be an arbitrary natural number. Differential spaces are one of possible generalizations of the concept of an infinitely differentiable manifold. It is known that in many (very important) mathematical models, the manifold structure breaks down. Therefore it is important to introduce a more general concept. In this paper, in particular, the behaviour...

Tenseness of Riemannian flows

Hiraku Nozawa, José Ignacio Royo Prieto (2014)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

We show that any transversally complete Riemannian foliation $ℱ$ of dimension one on any possibly non-compact manifold $M$ is tense; namely, $M$ admits a Riemannian metric such that the mean curvature form of $ℱ$ is basic. This is a partial generalization of a result of Domínguez, which says that any Riemannian foliation on any compact manifold is tense. Our proof is based on some results of Molino and Sergiescu, and it is simpler than the original proof by Domínguez. As an application, we generalize...

Some Classes of Lorentzian $α$ -Sasakian Manifolds Admitting a Quarter-symmetric Metric Connection

Santu DEY, Buddhadev Pal, Arindam BHATTACHARYYA (2016)

Acta Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Facultas Rerum Naturalium. Mathematica

Similarity:

The object of the present paper is to study a quarter-symmetric metric connection in an Lorentzian $α$ -Sasakian manifold. We study some curvature properties of an Lorentzian $α$ -Sasakian manifold with respect to the quarter-symmetric metric connection. We study locally $φ$ -symmetric, $φ$ -symmetric, locally projective $φ$ -symmetric, $ξ$ -projectively flat Lorentzian $α$ -Sasakian manifold with respect to the quarter-symmetric metric connection.

Growth of a primitive of a differential form

Jean-Claude Sikorav (2001)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

For an exact differential form on a Riemannian manifold to have a primitive bounded by a given function $f$ , by Stokes it has to satisfy some weighted isoperimetric inequality. We show the converse up to some constants if $M$ has bounded geometry. For a volume form, it suffices to have the inequality ( $| Ω | \leq \int_{\partial Ω} f d σ$ for every compact domain $Ω \subset M$ ). This implies in particular the “well-known” result that if $M$ is the universal covering of a compact Riemannian manifold with non-amenable fundamental group, then...
