On a new normalization for tractor covariant derivatives

Matthias Hammerl, Petr Somberg, Vladimír Souček, Josef Šilhan (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

A regular normal parabolic geometry of type G / P on a manifold M gives rise to sequences D i of invariant differential operators, known as the curved version of the BGG resolution. These sequences are constructed from the normal covariant derivative ω on the corresponding tractor bundle V , where ω is the normal Cartan connection. The first operator D 0 in the sequence is overdetermined and it is well known that ω yields the prolongation of this operator in the homogeneous case M = G / P . Our first main result...

On a sub-supersolution method for the prescribed mean curvature problem

Vy Khoi Le (2008)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

The paper is about a sub-supersolution method for the prescribed mean curvature problem. We formulate the problem as a variational inequality and propose appropriate concepts of sub- and supersolutions for such inequality. Existence and enclosure results for solutions and extremal solutions between sub- and supersolutions are established.
