Complétude asymptotique pour l'équation des ondes dans une classe d'espaces-temps stationnaires et asymptotiquement plats

Dietrich Häfner (2001)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

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.

Conformal Geometry and the Composite Membrane Problem

Sagun Chanillo (2013)

Analysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces

We show that a certain eigenvalue minimization problem in two dimensions for the Laplace operator in conformal classes is equivalent to the composite membrane problem. We again establish such a link in higher dimensions for eigenvalue problems stemming from the critical GJMS operators. New free boundary problems of unstable type arise in higher dimensions linked to the critical GJMS operator. In dimension four, the critical GJMS operator is exactly the Paneitz operator.

Conformal gradient vector fields on a compact Riemannian manifold

Sharief Deshmukh, Falleh Al-Solamy (2008)

Colloquium Mathematicae

It is proved that if an n-dimensional compact connected Riemannian manifold (M,g) with Ricci curvature Ric satisfying 0 < Ric ≤ (n-1)(2-nc/λ₁)c for a constant c admits a nonzero conformal gradient vector field, then it is isometric to Sⁿ(c), where λ₁ is the first nonzero eigenvalue of the Laplacian operator on M. Also, it is observed that existence of a nonzero conformal gradient vector field on an n-dimensional compact connected Einstein manifold forces it to...

Covering lemmas and BMO estimates for eigenfunctions on Riemannian surfaces.

Guozhen Lu (1991)

Revista Matemática Iberoamericana

The principal aim of this note is to prove a covering Lemma in R2. As an application of this covering lemma, we can prove the BMO estimates for eigenfunctions on two-dimensional Riemannian manifolds (M2, g). We will get the upper bound estimate for || log |u| ||BMO, where u is the solution to Δu + λu = 0, for λ &gt; 1 and Δ is the Laplacian on (M2, g). A covering lemma on homogeneous spaces is also obtained in this note.

Cramér's formula for Heisenberg manifolds

Mahta Khosravi, John A. Toth (2005)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Let R ( λ ) be the error term in Weyl’s law for a 3-dimensional Riemannian Heisenberg manifold. We prove that 1 T | R ( t ) | 2 d t = c T 5 2 + O δ ( T 9 4 + δ ) , where c is a specific nonzero constant and δ is an arbitrary small positive number. This is consistent with the conjecture of Petridis and Toth stating that R ( t ) = O δ ( t 3 4 + δ ) .The idea of the proof is to use the Poisson summation formula to write the error term in a form which can be estimated by the method of the stationary phase. The similar result will be also proven in the 2 n + 1 -dimensional case.
