Slant and pseudo-slant submanifolds in LCS -manifolds

Mehmet Atçeken, Shyamal Kumar Hui (2013)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We show new results on when a pseudo-slant submanifold is a LCS-manifold. Necessary and sufficient conditions for a submanifold to be pseudo-slant are given. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the integrability of distributions which are involved in the definition of the pseudo-slant submanifold. We characterize the pseudo-slant product and give necessary and sufficient conditions for a pseudo-slant submanifold to be the pseudo-slant product. Also we give an example of a slant submanifold...

Slant submanifolds in cosymplectic manifolds

Ram Shankar Gupta, S. M. Khursheed Haider, A. Sharfuddin (2006)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We give some examples of slant submanifolds of cosymplectic manifolds. Also, we study some special slant submanifolds, called austere submanifolds, and establish a relation between minimal and anti-invariant submanifolds which is based on properties of the second fundamental form. Moreover, we give an example to illustrate our result.

Smooth bundles of generalized half-densities

Daniel Canarutto (2000)

Archivum Mathematicum

Smooth bundles, whose fibres are distribution spaces, are introduced according to the notion of smoothness due to Frölicher. Some fundamental notions of differential geometry, such as tangent and jet spaces, Frölicher-Nijenhuis bracket, connections and curvature, are suitably generalized. It is also shown that a classical connection on a finite-dimensional bundle naturally determines a connection on an associated distributional bundle.

Smooth metric measure spaces, quasi-Einstein metrics, and tractors

Jeffrey Case (2012)

Open Mathematics

We introduce the tractor formalism from conformal geometry to the study of smooth metric measure spaces. In particular, this gives rise to a correspondence between quasi-Einstein metrics and parallel sections of certain tractor bundles. We use this formulation to give a sharp upper bound on the dimension of the vector space of quasi-Einstein metrics, providing a different perspective on some recent results of He, Petersen and Wylie.

Snakes and articulated arms in an Hilbert space

Fernand Pelletier, Rebhia Saffidine (2013)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

The purpose of this paper is to give an illustration of results on integrability of distributions and orbits of vector fields on Banach manifolds obtained in [5] and [4]. Using arguments and results of these papers, in the context of a separable Hilbert space, we give a generalization of a Theorem of accessibility contained in [3] and [6] for articulated arms and snakes in a finite dimensional Hilbert space.

Sobolev-Kantorovich Inequalities

Michel Ledoux (2015)

Analysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces

In a recent work, E. Cinti and F. Otto established some new interpolation inequalities in the study of pattern formation, bounding the Lr(μ)-norm of a probability density with respect to the reference measure μ by its Sobolev norm and the Kantorovich-Wasserstein distance to μ. This article emphasizes this family of interpolation inequalities, called Sobolev-Kantorovich inequalities, which may be established in the rather large setting of non-negatively curved (weighted) Riemannian manifolds by means...
