Compactness of isospectral conformal metrics on S3.
The refined analytic torsion associated to a flat vector bundle over a closed odd-dimensional manifold canonically defines a quadratic form on the determinant line of the cohomology. Both and the Burghelea-Haller torsion are refinements of the Ray-Singer torsion. We show that whenever the Burghelea-Haller torsion is defined it is equal to . As an application we obtain new results about the Burghelea-Haller torsion. In particular, we prove a weak version of the Burghelea-Haller conjecture relating...
En utilisant une méthode dépendante du temps, nous démontrons la complétude asymptotique pour l'équation des ondes dans une classe d'espaces-temps stationnaires et asymptotiquement plats. On introduit l'observable de vitesse asymptotique et on décrit son spectre (sous des hypothèses plus faibles que pour la complétude asymptotique). Les méthodes utilisées sont inspirées par celles de l'analyse du problème à deux corps en mécanique quantique.
There is an obvious topological obstruction for a finite energy unimodular harmonic extension of a -valued function defined on the boundary of a bounded regular domain of . When such extensions do not exist, we use the Ginzburg-Landau relaxation procedure. We prove that, up to a subsequence, a sequence of Ginzburg-Landau minimizers, as the coupling parameter tends to infinity, converges to a unimodular harmonic map away from a codimension-2 minimal current minimizing the area within the homology...
This is an exposition of a general machinery developed by M. G. Eastwood, T. N. Bailey, C. R. Graham which analyses some real integral transforms using complex methods. The machinery deals with double fibrations complex manifold; totally real, real-analytic submanifold;...
