Riemann流形上的一类标准共形不变度量

任意紧Riemann面上都存在一个仅依赖于共形类且拥有常曲率的度量.Harbermann和Jost用Yamabe算子对应的Green函数在数量曲率为正的局部共形平坦流形上构造了一个标准共形不变度量.在此之后,这类标准共形不变度量被推广到了数量曲率为正的球型CR流形上.进一步的,应用相应的Yamabe算子对应的Green函数可以构造数量曲率为正的球型四元切触流形和数量曲率为正的八元切触流形上类似的标准共形不变张量.在四元切触正质量猜测和八元切触正质量猜测成立的前提下,上述共形不变张量是共形不变度量.文中利用Paneitz算子对应的Green函数在局部共形平坦流形上构造了一类上述标准共形不变张量,并且在一定条件(详见定理3.1)下,该标准共形不变张量进一步为标准共形不变度量.

Two Special Simply Connected Spaces of Nonpositive Curvature

We construct two examples of spaces homeomorphic to R ⁿ (n3) each of which has a closed geodesic and admits no isoperimetric inequality. The first is a complete polyhedral metric space of nonpositive curvature, and the second is an incomplete Riemannian space with nonpositive sectional curvatures.     

Porous medium equations on manifolds with critical negative curvature: unbounded initial data

We investigate existence and uniqueness of solutions of the Cauchy problem for the porous medium equation on a class of Cartan–Hadamard manifolds. We suppose that the radial Ricci curvature, which is everywhere nonpositive as well as sectional curvatures, can diverge negatively at infinity with an at most quadratic rate: in this sense it is referred to as critical. The main novelty with respect to previous results is that, under such hypotheses, we are able to deal with unbounded initial data and solutions. Moreover, by requiring a matching bound from above on sectional curvatures, we can also prove a blow-up theorem in a suitable weighted space, for initial data that grow sufficiently fast at infinity.     

Cusp closing of hyperbolic manifolds

A general method to produce infinitely many pairwise homotopically nonequivalent closed manifolds using the cusp closing construction is presented. An infinite sequence of closed homotopically nonequivalent real analytic Riemannian 5-manifolds with uniformly bounded volumes and uniformly bounded nonpositive sectional curvatures, which are allowed to vanish along codimension two submanifolds only, is constructed using this method.Both authors were supported in part by the Grant R24000 from the International Science Foundation.     

Relative isoperimetric inequality and¶linear isoperimetric inequality for minimal submanifolds

We prove an optimal relative isoperimetric inequality

Examples of 4-manifolds with almost nonpositive curvature

We construct an infinite family of non-homeomorphic 4-manifolds with almost nonpositive sectional curvature whose universal covering space is not contractible. As a consequence, these manifolds do not support metrics with nonpositive sectional curvature. To achieve this, we use a generalization of Bavard's surgery construction, combined with an open book decomposition and knot theory.     

Heat Flows of Subelliptic Harmonic Maps into Riemannian Manifolds with Nonpositive Curvatures

In this paper, we discuss the heat flows of subelliptic harmonic maps into Riemannian manifolds with nonpositive curvatures, and prove the homotopic existence which is a generalization of the Eells–Sampson theorem.     

Warped product structure of submanifolds with nonpositive extrinsic curvature in space forms

By means of a simple warped product construction we obtain examples of submanifolds with nonpositive extrinsic curvature and minimal index of relative nullity in any space form. We then use this to extend to arbitrary space forms four known splitting results for Euclidean submanifolds with nonpositive sectional curvature.     

Sectional curvature,compact cores,and local quasiconvexity

We define a new notion of sectional curvature for 2-complexes, and describe a variety of examples with nonpositive or negative sectional curvature. The 2-complexes with nonpositive sectional curvature have coherent and locally indicable fundamental groups. The 2-complexes with negative sectional curvature have the compact core property for covers with finitely generated fundamental group. The fundamental groups of compact 2-complexes with metric negative sectional curvature have locally-quasiconvex fundamental groups.     

On harmonic and asymptotically harmonic homogeneous spaces

We classify noncompact homogeneous spaces which are Einstein and asymptotically harmonic. This completes the classification of Riemannian harmonic spaces in the homogeneous case: Any simply connected homogeneous harmonic space is flat, or rank-one symmetric, or a nonsymmetric Damek–Ricci space. Independently, Y. Nikolayevsky has obtained the latter classification under the additional assumption of nonpositive sectional curvatures [N2].
