A complement to the Fredholm theory of elliptic systems on bounded domains.
We construct series of examples of non-flat non-homogeneous parabolic geometries that carry a symmetry of the parabolic geometry at each point.
This paper studies a family of finite volume schemes for the hyperbolic scalar conservation law on a closed Riemannian manifold M. For an initial value in BV(M) we will show that these schemes converge with a convergence rate towards the entropy solution. When M is 1-dimensional the schemes are TVD and we will show that this improves the convergence rate to
We construct a two dimensional foliation with dense leaves on the Heisenberg nilmanifold for which smooth leafwise Hodge decomposition does not hold. It is also shown that a certain type of dynamical trace formulas relating periodic orbits with traces on leafwise cohomologies does not hold for arbitrary flows.
This is the second of a series of papers dealing with an analog in Arakelov geometry of the holomorphic Lefschetz fixed point formula. We use the main result of the first paper to prove a residue formula "à la Bott" for arithmetic characteristic classes living on arithmetic varieties acted upon by a diagonalisable torus; recent results of Bismut- Goette on the equivariant (Ray-Singer) analytic torsion play a key role in the proof.
We propose to study a fully nonlinear version of the Yamabe problem on manifolds with boundary. The boundary condition for the conformal metric is the mean curvature. We establish some Liouville type theorems and Harnack type inequalities.
