Immersions with Parallel Second Fundamental Form.
In the joint paper of the author with K. P. Tod [J. Reine Angew. Math. 491, 183-198 (1997; Zbl 0876.53029)] they showed all local solutions of the Einstein-Weyl equations in three dimensions, where the background metric is homogeneous with unimodular isometry group. In particular, they proved that there are no solutions with Nil or Sol as background metric. In this note, these two special cases are presented.
We introduce an inequality for graph hypersurfaces and prove a decomposition theorem in case equality holds.
We characterize the boundary at infinity of a complex hyperbolic space as a compact Ptolemy space that satisfies four incidence axioms.
Hedgehogs are a natural generalization of convex bodies of class C+2. After recalling some basic facts concerning this generalization, we use the notion of index to study differential and integral geometries of hedgehogs.As applications, we prove a particular case of the Tennis Ball Theorem and a property of normals to a plane convex body of constant width.
En 1999, M. Ledoux a démontré qu’une variété complète à courbure de Ricci positive ou nulle vérifiant une inégalité de Sobolev euclidienne était euclidienne. On présente un raccourci de la preuve. De plus nos arguments permettent un raffinement d’un résultat de B-L. Chen et X-P. Zhu à propos des variétés localement conformément plate à courbure de Ricci positive ou nulle. Enfin, on étudie ce qui se passe lorsque l’hypothèse sur la courbure de Ricci est remplacée par une hypothèse sur la courbure...
