Evolution equation of the Gauss curvature under hypersurface flows and its applications

In this paper, we derive evolution equation of the integral of the Gauss curvature on an evolving hypersurface. As an application, we obtain a monotone quantity on the level surface of the potential function on a 3-dimensional steady gradient Ricci soliton with positive sectional curvature, and prove that such a soliton is rotationally symmetric outside of a compact set under a curvature decaying assumption. Along the way we will also apply our evolution equation to some other cases.     

CONVEXITY AND SYMMETRY OF TRANSLATING SOLITONS IN MEAN CURVATURE FLOWS

Immortal solution of the Ricci flow

For any complete noncompact Kahler manifold with nonnegative and bounded holomorphic bisectional curvature, we provide the necessary and sufficient condition for the immortal solution to the Ricci flow.     

Evolution and monotonicity of eigenvalues under the Ricci flow

Let(M, g(t)) be a compact Riemannian manifold and the metric g(t) evolve by the Ricci flow. We derive the evolution equation for the eigenvalues of geometric operator-△φ+ c R under the Ricci flow and the normalized Ricci flow, where △φis the Witten-Laplacian operator, φ∈ C∞(M), and R is the scalar curvature with respect to the metric g(t). As an application, we prove that the eigenvalues of the geometric operator are nondecreasing along the Ricci flow coupled to a heat equation for manifold M with some Ricci curvature condition when c 14.

Let （M,g, e^-fdv） be a smooth metric measure space. In this paper, we con- sider two nonlinear weighted p-heat equations. Firstly, we derive a Li-Yau type gradient estimates for the positive solutions to the following nonlinear weighted p-heat equationand f is a smooth function on M under the assumptionthat the m-dimensional nonnegative Bakry-Emery Ricci curvature. Secondly, we show an entropy monotonicity formula with nonnegative m-dimensional Bakry-Emery Ricci curva- ture which is a generalization to the results of Kotschwar and Ni [9], Li [7].

Universal sums of three quadratic polynomials

Let a,b,c,d,e and f be integers with a≥ c≥ e> 0,b>-a and b≡a(mod 2),d>-c and d≡c(mod 2),f>-e and f≡e(mod 2).Suppose that b≥d if a=c,and d≥f if c=e.When b(a-b),d(c-d) and f(e-f) are not all zero,we prove that if each n∈N={0,1,2,...} can be written as x(ax+b)/2+y(cy+d)/2+z(ez+f)/2 with x,y,z∈N then the tuple(a,b,c,d,e,f) must be on our list of 473 candidates,and show that 56 of them meet our purpose.When b∈[0,a),d∈[0,c) and f∈[0,e),we investigate the universal tuples(a,b,c,d,e,f) over Z for which any n∈N can be written as x(ax+b)/2+y(cy+d)/2+z(ez+f)/2 with x,y,z∈Z,and show that there are totally 12,082 such candidates some of which are proved to be universal tuples over Z.For example,we show that any n∈N can be written as x(x+1)/2+y(3y+1)/2+z(5z+1)/2 with x,y,z∈Z,and conjecture that each n∈N can be written as x(x+1)/2+y(3y+1)/2+z(5z+1)/2 with x,y,z∈N.     

COMPLETE HYPERSURFACES WITH CONSTANT MEAN CURVATURE AND FINITE INDEX IN HYPERBOLIC SPACES

In this article, we prove that any complete finite index hypersurface in the hyperbolic space H4(-1)(H5(-1)) with constant mean curvature H satisfying H2 > 6634 (H2 > 114785 respectively) must be compact. Specially, we verify that any complete and stable hypersurface in the hyperbolic space H4(-1) (resp. H5(-1)) with constant mean curvature H satisfying H2 > 6643 (resp. H2 > 114785 ) must be compact. It shows that there is no manifold satisfying the conditions of some theorems in [7, 9].     

THE SINE TRANSFORM OPERATOR IN THE BANACH SPACE OF SYMMETRIC MATRICES AND ITS APPLICATION IN IMAGE RESTORATION

In this paper, we study an operator s which maps every n-by-n symmetric matrix A, to a matrix s(A_n) that minimizes || B_n-A_n || F over the set of all matrices B_n, that can be diagonalized by the sine transform. The matrix s(A_n), called the optimal sine transform preconditioner, is defined for any n-by-n symmetric matrices A_n. The cost of constructing s(A_n) is the same as that of optimal circulant preconditioner c(A_n) which is defined in [8], The s(A_n) has been proved in [6] to be a good preconditioner in solving symmetric Toeplitz systems with the preconditioned conjugate gradient (PCG) method. In this paper, we discuss the algebraic and geometric properties of the operator s, and compute its operator norms in Banach spaces of symmetric matrices. Some numerical tests and an application in image restoration are also given.

We obtain an inequality in Sm×R and Hm×R which is similar to DDVV conjecture.As an application,we show that a minimal submanifold in H m×R with nonnegative scalar curvature must be a surface of the type γ×R,where γ is a geodesic in H m.In addition,we get a pinching theorem in Sm×R.     

On universal sums of polygonal numbers

For m = 3, 4,..., the polygonal numbers of order m are given by pm(n) =(m- 2) n2 + n(n= 0, 1, 2,...). For positive integers a, b, c and i, j, k 3 with max{i, j, k} 5, we call the triple(api, bpj, cpk)universal if for any n = 0, 1, 2,..., there are nonnegative integers x, y, z such that n = api(x) + bpj(y)+ cpk(z). We show that there are only 95 candidates for universal triples(two of which are(p4, p5, p6) and(p3, p4, p27)), and conjecture that they are indeed universal triples. For many triples(api, bpj, cpk)(including(p3, 4p4, p5),(p4, p5, p6) and(p4, p4, p5)), we prove that any nonnegative integer can be written in the form api(x) + bpj(y) + cpk(z) with x, y, z ∈ Z. We also show some related new results on ternary quadratic forms,one of which states that any nonnegative integer n ≡ 1(mod 6) can be written in the form x2+ 3y2+ 24z2 with x, y, z ∈ Z. In addition, we pose several related conjectures one of which states that for any m = 3, 4,...each natural number can be expressed as pm+1(x1) + pm+2(x2) + pm+3(x3) + r with x1, x2, x3 ∈ {0, 1, 2,...}and r ∈ {0,..., m- 3}.

This paper proves that the first eigenfunctions of the Finsler p-Lapalcian are C~(1,α). Using a gradient comparison theorem and one-dimensional model, we obtain the sharp lower bound of the first Neumann and closed eigenvalue of the p-Laplacian on a compact Finsler manifold with nonnegative weighted Ricci curvature,on which a lower bound of the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of the p-Laplacian is also obtained.

On the Spectra!Subspaces of the Non-Normal Operators

In this paper we have proved Theorem 2. Let T be an operator on the Hilbert space II with the single valued extension property, Suppose that for every X in the complex plane, it holds that $||(T-\lambda)f||^2 \leq ||(T-\lambda)^2f||\cdot ||f||,\forall f \in H$ Then for any closed subset \delta of the plane, the spectral subspace ￡_T (\delta) is closed. Theorem 9. Let T and S^* be semi-hyponormal operators and 0 \notin \sigma_p(s). Suppose that there exists an injective operator W with dense range which satisfies TW = WS. Then T and S are normal operators. Theorem 10. Let S be a co-semi-hyponormal operator with the single valued extension property and be not normal. Then there exists f \ne 0 which satisfies ${\sigma _s}(f) \not\subset \sigma (S)$

具有对称自同态的环及其扩张

Let R be a ring with an endomorphism α and an α-derivation δ. We introduce the notions of symmetric α-rings and weak symmetric α-rings which are generalizations of symmetric rings and weak symmetric rings, respectively, discuss the relations between symmetricα-rings and related rings and investigate their extensions. We prove that if R is a reduced ring and α(1) = 1, then R is a symmetric α-ring if and only if R[x]/(x n) is a symmetric ˉα-ring for any positive integer n. Moreover, it is proven that if R is a right Ore ring, α an automorphism of R and Q(R) the classical right quotient ring of R, then R is a symmetric α-ring if and only if Q(R) is a symmetric ˉα-ring. Among others we also show that if a ring R is weakly 2-primal and(α, δ)-compatible, then R is a weak symmetric α-ring if and only if the Ore extension R[x; α, δ] of R is a weak symmetric ˉα-ring.     

A note on the existence of fractional f-factors in random graphs

Let G=Gn,p be a binomial random graph with n vertices and edge probability p=p(n),and f be a nonnegative integer-valued function defined on V(G) such that 0a≤f(x)≤bnp-2np ㏒n for every x ∈V(G). An fractional f-indicator function is an function h that assigns to each edge of a graph G a number h(e) in [0,1] so that for each vertex x,we have dh G(x)=f(x),where dh G(x) = x∈e h(e) is the fractional degree of x in G. Set Eh = {e:e ∈E(G) and h(e)=0}.If Gh is a spanning subgraph of G such that E(Gh)=Eh,then Gh is called an fractional f-factor of G. In this paper,we prove that for any binomial random graph Gn,p with p≥n-23,almost surely Gn,p contains an fractional f-factor.
