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.

基于曲率插值的大变形梁单元

线性梁单元的形函数在单元大转动时会引起虚假应变,不适用于几何非线性分析．传统的几何非线性梁单元由于位移插值和转角插值的相干性,常常引起剪切闭锁等问题．该文 提出了一种平面大变形梁单元,通过单元域内的曲率插值以及曲率与节点位移之间的函数关系,将单元节点力和节点位移表示为节点曲率的函数．由于曲率插值本质上是对梁的应变进行插值,保证了单元任意刚体运动不会产生虚假的节点力;且将梁的截面形心位移表示为曲率的函数,避免了传统单元中的剪切闭锁问题．因而所提方法特别适用于梁的几何非线性分析．数值算例说明了所提方法的正确性和有效性.     

Curvature in Special Base Conformal Warped Products

We introduce the concept of a base conformal warped product of two pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. We also define a subclass of this structure called as a special base conformal warped product. After, we explicitly mention many of the relevant fields where metrics of these forms and also considerations about their curvature related properties play important rolls. Among others, we cite general relativity, extra-dimension, string and super-gravity theories as physical subjects and also the study of the spectrum of Laplace-Beltrami operators on p-forms in global analysis. Then, we give expressions for the Ricci tensor and scalar curvature of a base conformal warped product in terms of Ricci tensors and scalar curvatures of its base and fiber, respectively. Furthermore, we introduce specific identities verified by particular families of, either scalar or tensorial, nonlinear differential operators on pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. The latter allow us to obtain new interesting expressions for the Ricci tensor and scalar curvature of a special base conformal warped product and it turns out that not only the expressions but also the analytical approach used are interesting from the physical, geometrical and analytical point of view. Finally, we analyze, investigate and characterize possible solutions for the conformal and warping factors of a special base conformal warped product, which guarantee that the corresponding product is Einstein. Besides all, we apply these results to a generalization of the Schwarzschild metric.      

Scalar Curvature and Q-Curvature of Random Metrics

We define a family of probability measures on the set of Riemannian metrics lying in a fixed conformal class, induced by Gaussian probability measures on the (logarithms of) conformal factors. We control the smoothness of the resulting metric by adjusting the decay rate of the variance of the random Fourier coefficients of the conformal factor. On a compact surface, we evaluate the probability of the set of metrics with non-vanishing Gauss curvature, lying in a fixed conformal class. On higher-dimensional manifolds, we estimate the probability of the set of metrics with non-vanishing scalar curvature (or Q-curvature), lying in a fixed conformal class.     

Scalar Curvature Rigidity for Asymptotically Locally Hyperbolic Manifolds

Rigidity results for asymptotically locally hyperbolic manifolds with lower bounds on scalar curvature are proved using spinor methods related to the Witten proof of the positive mass theorem. The argument is based on a study of the Dirac operator defined with respect to the Killing connection. The existence of asymptotic Killing spinors is related to the spin structure on the end. The expression for the mass is calculated and proven to vanish for conformally compact Einstein manifolds with conformal boundary a spherical space form, giving rigidity. In the four dimensional case, the signature of the manifold is related to the spin structure on the end and explicit formulas for the relevant invariants are given.     

Extremal Metrics for Quadratic Functional of Scalar Curvature on Closed 3-Manifolds

In this paper, we first show the global existence of the three-dimensionalCalabi flow on any closed 3-manifold with an arbitrary background metric g ₀. Second, we show the asymptotic convergence of a subsequence ofsolutions of the Calabi flow on a closed 3-manifold with Yamabe constant Q < 0 or Q = 0 and Q > 0, up to conformal transformations. With itsapplication, we prove the existence of extremal metrics for quadraticfunctional of scalar curvature on a closed 3-manifold which is served asan extension of the Yamabe problem on closed manifolds. Moreover, theexistence of extremal metrics on complete noncompact 3-manifolds willdiscuss elsewhere.     

Conformal deformations of prescribing scalar curvature on Riemannian manifolds with negative curvature

We study the conformal deformation for prescribing scalar curvature function on Cartan-Hadamard manifoldM ⁿ (n≥3) with strongly negative curvature. By employing the supersubsolution method and a careful construction for the supersolution, we obtain the best possible asymptotic behavior for near infinity so that the problem of complete conformal deformation is solvable. In more general cases, we prove an asymptotic estimation on the solutions of the conformal scalar curvature equation. Project partially supported by the NNSF of China     

Rigidity of conformally compact manifolds with the round sphere as the conformal infinity

In this paper, we prove that under a lower bound on the Ricci curvature and an assumption on the asymptotic behavior of the scalar curvature, a complete conformally compact manifold whose conformal boundary is the round sphere has to be the hyperbolic space. It generalizes similar previous results where stronger conditions on the Ricci curvature or restrictions on dimension are imposed.     

On the Webster Scalar Curvature Problem on the CR Sphere with a Cylindrical-Type Symmetry

By variational methods, for a kind of Webster scalar curvature problems on the CR sphere with cylindrically symmetric curvature, we construct some multi-peak solutions as the parameter is sufficiently small under certain assumptions. We also obtain the asymptotic behaviors of the solutions.     

Q Curvature on a Class of 3‐Manifolds

Motivated by the strong maximum principle for the Paneitz operator in dimension 5 or higher found in a preprint by Gursky and Malchiodi and the calculation of the second variation of the Green's function pole's value on ??³ in our preprint, we study the Riemannian metric on 3‐manifolds with positive scalar and Q curvature. Among other things, we show it is always possible to find a constant Q curvature metric in the conformal class. Moreover, the Green's function is always negative away from the pole, and the pole's value vanishes if and only if the Riemannian manifold is conformal diffeomorphic to the standard ??³. Compactness of constant Q curvature metrics in a conformal class and the associated Sobolev inequality are also discussed. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
