Geometric properties of Lie hypersurfaces in a complex hyperbolic space

Young Ho Kim, Sadahiro Maeda, Hiromasa Tanabe (2019)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We study homogeneous real hypersurfaces having no focal submanifolds in a complex hyperbolic space. They are called Lie hypersurfaces in this space. We clarify the geometry of Lie hypersurfaces in terms of their sectional curvatures, the behavior of the characteristic vector field and their holomorphic distributions.

Geometric renormalization of large energy wave maps

Terence Tao (2004)

Journées Équations aux dérivées partielles

There has been much progress in recent years in understanding the existence problem for wave maps with small critical Sobolev norm (in particular for two-dimensional wave maps with small energy); a key aspect in that theory has been a renormalization procedure (either a geometric Coulomb gauge, or a microlocal gauge) which converts the nonlinear term into one closer to that of a semilinear wave equation. However, both of these renormalization procedures encounter difficulty if the energy of the...

Geometrical aspects of the covariant dynamics of higher order

D. Opris, I. D. Albu (1998)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We present some geometrical aspects of a higher-order jet bundle which is considered a suitable framework for the study of higher-order dynamics in continuous media. We generalize some results obtained by A. Vondra, [7]. These results lead to a description of the geometrical dynamics of higher order generated by regular equations.
