The homogeneous parallel- movement-mechanism. (Der homogene Paralleltrieb-Mechanismus.)
A Theorem is proved that gives intrinsic necessary and sufficient conditions for the integrability of a zero-deformable field of endomorphisms. The Theorem is proved by reducing to a special case in which the endomorphism field is nilpotent. Many arguments used in the derivation of similar results are simplified, principally by means of using quotient rather than subspace constructions.
We consider the level set formulation of the inverse mean curvature flow. We establish a connection to the problem of -harmonic functions and give a new proof for the existence of weak solutions.
In this paper we solve the problem of finding integrals of equations determining the Killing tensors on an -dimensional differentiable manifold endowed with an equiaffine -structure and discuss possible applications of obtained results in Riemannian geometry.
A strictly short embedding is an embedding of a Riemannian manifold into an Euclidean space that strictly shortens distances. From such an embedding, the Nash-Kuiper process builds a sequence of maps converging toward an isometric embedding. In that paper, we describe this Nash-Kuiper process in the case of curves. We state an explicit formula for the limit normal map and perform its Fourier series expansion. We then adress the question of Holder regularity of the limit map.

For natural numbers r,s,q,m,n with s≥r≤q we determine all natural functions g: T *(J (r,s,q)(Y, R 1,1)0)*→R for any fibered manifold Y with m-dimensional base and n-dimensional fibers. For natural numbers r,s,m,n with s≥r we determine all natural functions g: T *(J (r,s)(Y, R)0)*→R for any Y as above.
For natural numbers and and a real number we construct a natural vector bundle over -manifolds such that is the (classical) vector tangent bundle of order . For integers and and a real number we classify all natural operators lifting vector fields from -manifolds to .
