The asymptotic behavior of Green's functions for quasi-hyperbolic metrics on degenerating Riemann surfaces.
Let be a compact CR manifold of dimension with a contact form , and its associated CR conformal laplacien. The CR Yamabe conjecture states that there is a contact form on conformal to which has a constant Webster curvature. This problem is equivalent to the existence of a function such that , on . D. Jerison and J. M. Lee solved the CR Yamabe problem in the case where and is not locally CR equivalent to the sphere of . In a join work with R. Yacoub, the CR Yamabe problem...
We compute the evolution equation of the Weyl tensor under the Ricci flow of a Riemannian manifold and we discuss some consequences for the classification of locally conformally flat Ricci solitons.
We have, that all two-dimensional subspaces of the algebra of quaternions, containing a unit, are 2-dimensional subalgebras isomorphic to the algebra of complex numbers. It was proved in the papers of N. E. Belova. In the present article we consider a 2-dimensional subalgebra of complex numbers with basis and we construct the principal locally trivial bundle which is isomorphic to the Hopf fibration.
This paper discusses the question whether the discrete spectrum of the Laplace-Beltrami operator is infinite or finite. The borderline-behavior of the curvatures for this problem will be completely determined.
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.
Our aim is to study the principal bundles determined by the algebra of quaternions in the projective model. The projectivization of the conformal model of the Hopf fibration is considered as example.
This paper reports on the recent proof of the bounded curvature conjecture. More precisely we show that the time of existence of a classical solution to the Einstein-vacuum equations depends only on the -norm of the curvature and a lower bound of the volume radius of the corresponding initial data set.
We prove the spacetime positive mass theorem in dimensions less than eight. This theorem asserts that for any asymptotically flat initial data set that satisfies the dominant energy condition, the inequality holds, where is the ADM energy-momentum vector. Previously, this theorem was only known for spin manifolds [38]. Our approach is a modification of the minimal hypersurface technique that was used by the last named author and S.-T. Yau to establish the time-symmetric case of this theorem...
In this paper, we consider the problem of the existence of conformal metrics with prescribed scalar curvature on the standard sphere S n, n ≥ 3. We give new existence and multiplicity results based on a new Euler-Hopf formula type. Our argument also has the advantage of extending well known results due to Y. Li [16].
