On the role of partial Ricci curvature in the geometry of submanifolds and foliations

Vladimir Rovenskiĭ (1998)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Submanifolds and foliations with restrictions on q-Ricci curvature are studied. In §1 we estimate the distance between two compact submanifolds in a space of positive q-Ricci curvature, and give applications to special classes of submanifolds and foliations: k-saddle, totally geodesic, with nonpositive extrinsic q-Ricci curvature. In §2 we generalize a lemma by T. Otsuki on asymptotic vectors of a bilinear form and then estimate from below the radius of an immersed submanifold in a simply connected...

On the short time asymptotic of the stochastic Allen–Cahn equation

Hendrik Weber (2010)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

A description of the short time behavior of solutions of the Allen–Cahn equation with a smoothened additive noise is presented. The key result is that in the sharp interface limit solutions move according to motion by mean curvature with an additional stochastic forcing. This extends a similar result of Funaki [Acta Math. Sin (Engl. Ser.)15 (1999) 407–438] in spatial dimension n=2 to arbitrary dimensions.

On the space of maps inducing isomorphic connections

T. R. Ramadas (1982)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Let ω be the universal connection on the bundle E U ( n ) B U ( n ) . Given a principal U ( n ) -bundle P M with connection A , we determine the homotopy type of the space of maps ϕ of M into B U ( n ) such that ( ϕ + E U ( n ) , ϕ + ω ) is isomorphic to ( P , A ) . Here ϕ + denotes pull-back.

On the spectral theory and dynamics of asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds

Julie Rowlett (2010)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We present a brief survey of the spectral theory and dynamics of infinite volume asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds. Beginning with their geometry and examples, we proceed to their spectral and scattering theories, dynamics, and the physical description of their quantum and classical mechanics. We conclude with a discussion of recent results, ideas, and conjectures.

On the spectrum of Riemannian submersions with totally geodesic fibers

Gérard Besson, Manlio Bordoni (1990)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

In this Note we give a rule to compute explicitely the spectrum and the eigenfunctions of the total space of a Riemannian submersion with totally geodesic fibers, in terms of the spectra and eigenfunctions of the typical fiber and any associated principal bundle.
