Existence of Conservation Laws and characterization of recursion operators for completely integrable systems

Using the Spencer-Goldschmidt version of the Cartan-Kähler theorem, we give conditions for (local) existence of conservation laws for analytical quasi-linear systems of two independent variables. This result is applied to characterize the recursion operator (in the sense of Magri) of completely integrable systems.

Berezin Quantization and Reproducing Kernels on Complex Domains

Let be a non-compact complex manifold of dimension , a Kähler form on , and the reproducing kernel for the Bergman space of all analytic functions on square-integrable against the measure . Under the condition

F. A. Berezin [Math. USSR Izvestiya 8 (1974), 1109--1163] was able to establish a quantization procedure on which has recently attracted some interest. The only known instances when the above condition is satisfied, however, are just and a bounded symmetric domain (with the euclidean and the Bergman metric, respectively). In this paper, we extend the quantization procedure to the case when the above condition is satisfied only asymptotically, in an appropriate sense, as . This makes the procedure applicable to a wide class of complex Kähler manifolds, including all planar domains with the Poincaré metric (if the domain is of hyperbolic type) or the euclidean metric (in the remaining cases) and some pseudoconvex domains in . Along the way, we also fix two gaps in Berezin's original paper, and discuss, for a domain in , a variant of the quantization which uses weighted Bergman spaces with respect to the Lebesgue measure instead of the Kähler-Liouville measure .

     

Partial symmetries and dynamical systems

We start recalling the characterizing property of the ‘partial symmetries’ of a differential problem, that is, the property of transforming solutions into solutions only in a proper subset of the full solution set. This paper is devoted to analyze the role of partial symmetries in the special context of dynamical systems and also to compare this notion with other notions of ‘weak’ symmetries, namely, the λ‐symmetries and the orbital symmetries. Particular attention is addressed to discuss the relevance of partial symmetries in dynamical systems admitting homoclinic (or heteroclinic) manifolds, which can be ‘broken’ by periodic perturbations, thus giving rise, according to the (suitably rewritten) Mel'nikov theorem, to the appearance of a chaotic behavior of Smale‐horseshoes type. Many examples illustrate all the various aspects and situations. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Riesz transforms of the Hodge–de Rham Laplacian on Riemannian manifolds

Let M be a complete non‐compact Riemannian manifold satisfying the volume doubling property. Let be the Hodge–de Rham Laplacian acting on 1‐differential forms. According to the Bochner formula, where and are respectively the positive and negative part of the Ricci curvature and ? is the Levi–Civita connection. We study the boundedness of the Riesz transform from to and of the Riesz transform from to . We prove that, if the heat kernel on functions satisfies a Gaussian upper bound and if the negative part of the Ricci curvature is ε‐sub‐critical for some , then is bounded from to and is bounded from to for where depends on ε and on a constant appearing in the volume doubling property. A duality argument gives the boundedness of the Riesz transform from to for where Δ is the non‐negative Laplace–Beltrami operator. We also give a condition on to be ε‐sub‐critical under both analytic and geometric assumptions.     

Natural almost contact structures and their 3D homogeneous models

We consider a natural condition determining a large class of almost contact metric structures. We study their geometry, emphasizing that this class shares several properties with contact metric manifolds. We then give a complete classification of left‐invariant examples on three‐dimensional Lie groups, and show that any simply connected homogeneous Riemannian three‐manifold admits a natural almost contact structure having g as a compatible metric. Moreover, we investigate left‐invariant CR structures corresponding to natural almost contact metric structures.     

Einstein almost cokähler manifolds

We study an odd‐dimensional analogue of the Goldberg conjecture for compact Einstein almost Kähler manifolds. We give an explicit non‐compact example of an Einstein almost cokähler manifold that is not cokähler. We prove that compact Einstein almost cokähler manifolds with nonnegative *‐scalar curvature are cokähler (indeed, transversely Calabi–Yau); more generally, we give a lower and upper bound for the *‐scalar curvature in the case that the structure is not cokähler. We prove similar bounds for almost Kähler Einstein manifolds that are not Kähler.     

The semiclassical resolvent on conformally compact manifolds with variable curvature at infinity

We construct a semiclassical parametrix for the resolvent of the Laplacian acting on functions on nontrapping conformally compact manifolds with variable sectional curvature at infinity. We apply this parametrix to analyze the Schwartz kernel of the semiclassical resolvent and Poisson operator and to show that the semiclassical scattering matrix is a semiclassical Fourier Integral Operator of appropriate class that quantizes the scattering relation. We also obtain high energy estimates for the resolvent and show existence of resonance free strips of arbitrary height away from the imaginary axis. We then use the results of Datchev and Vasy on gluing semiclassical resolvent estimates to obtain semiclassical resolvent estimates on certain conformally compact manifolds with hyperbolic trapping.
