Quelques critères pour l’inégalité de Poincaré dans ,
We study the “hyperboloidal Cauchy problem” for linear and semi-linear wave equations on Minkowski space-time, with initial data in weighted Sobolev spaces allowing singular behavior at the boundary, or with polyhomogeneous initial data. Specifically, we consider nonlinear symmetric hyperbolic systems of a form which includes scalar fields with a nonlinearity, as well as wave maps, with initial data given on a hyperboloid; several of the results proved apply to general space-times admitting conformal...
We establish the lower bound , for the large times asymptotic behaviours of the probabilities of return to the origin at even times , for random walks associated with finite symmetric generating sets of solvable groups of finite Prüfer rank. (A group has finite Prüfer rank if there is an integer , such that any of its finitely generated subgroup admits a generating set of cardinality less or equal to .)
We study spectral asymptotics and resolvent bounds for non-selfadjoint perturbations of selfadjoint -pseudodifferential operators in dimension 2, assuming that the classical flow of the unperturbed part is completely integrable. Spectral contributions coming from rational invariant Lagrangian tori are analyzed. Estimating the tunnel effect between strongly irrational (Diophantine) and rational tori, we obtain an accurate description of the spectrum in a suitable complex window, provided that the...
We show, using a direct variational approach, that the second boundary value problem for the Monge-Ampère equation in with exponential non-linearity and target a convex body is solvable iff is the barycenter of Combined with some toric geometry this confirms, in particular, the (generalized) Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture for toric log Fano varieties saying that admits a (singular) Kähler-Einstein metric iff it is K-stable in the algebro-geometric sense. We thus obtain a new proof and...
In this paper we will give a brief survey of recent regularity results for Fourier integral operators with complex phases. This will include the case of real phase functions. Applications include hyperbolic partial differential equations as well as non-hyperbolic classes of equations. An application to an oblique derivative problem is also given.
We report on results we recently obtained in Hebey and Thizy [11, 12] for critical stationary Kirchhoff systems in closed manifolds. Let be a closed -manifold, . The critical Kirchhoff systems we consider are written asfor all , where is the Laplace-Beltrami operator, is a -map from into the space of symmetric matrices with real entries, the ’s are the components of , , is the Euclidean norm of , is the critical Sobolev exponent, and we require that in for all . We...
We consider perturbations of a stratified medium , where the operator studied is . The function is a perturbation of , which is constant for sufficiently large and satisfies some other conditions. Under certain restrictions on the perturbation , we give results on the Fourier integral operator structure of the scattering matrix. Moreover, we show that we can recover the asymptotic expansion at infinity of from knowledge of and the singularities of the scattering matrix at fixed energy....
We define the Bloch spectrum of a quantum graph to be the map that assigns to each element in the deRham cohomology the spectrum of an associated magnetic Schrödinger operator. We show that the Bloch spectrum determines the Albanese torus, the block structure and the planarity of the graph. It determines a geometric dual of a planar graph. This enables us to show that the Bloch spectrum indentifies and completely determines planar -connected quantum graphs.
We describe the recent joint work of the author with David M. J. Calderbank and Paul Gauduchon on refined Kato inequalities for sections of vector bundles living in the kernel of natural first-order elliptic operators.
