Computation of bifurcation manifolds of linearly independent homoclinic orbits

Regarding the small perturbation as a parameter in an appropriate space of functions, we can discuss co-existence of homoclinic orbits for non-autonomous perturbations of an autonomous system in Rn and describe conditions of parameters for such degenerate homoclinic bifurcations with some bifurcation manifolds of infinite dimension. Since those manifolds determine the relation among parameters for such bifurcations, in this paper we give an algorithm to compute approximately those manifolds and concretely obtain their first order approximates.     

Real quadrics in C n , complex manifolds and convex polytopes

In this paper, we investigate the topology of a class of non-Kähler compact complex manifolds generalizing that of Hopf and Calabi-Eckmann manifolds. These manifolds are diffeomorphic to special systems of real quadrics C ⁿ which are invariant with respect to the natural action of the real torus (S ¹) ⁿ onto C ⁿ . The quotient space is a simple convex polytope. The problem reduces thus to the study of the topology of certain real algebraic sets and can be handled using combinatorial results on convex polytopes. We prove that the homology groups of these compact complex manifolds can have arbitrary amount of torsion so that their topology is extremely rich. We also resolve an associated wall-crossing problem by introducing holomorphic equivariant elementary surgeries related to some transformations of the simple convex polytope. Finally, as a nice consequence, we obtain that affine non-Kähler compact complex manifolds can have arbitrary amount of torsion in their homology groups, contrasting with the Kähler situation.     

Elliptic dilation–contraction problems on manifolds with boundary. <Emphasis Type="Italic">C</Emphasis>*-theory

We study boundary value problems with dilations and contractions on manifolds with boundary. We construct a C*- algebra of such problems generated by zero-order operators. We compute the trajectory symbols of elements of this algebra, obtain an analog of the Shapiro–Lopatinskii condition for such problems, and prove the corresponding finiteness theorem.     

Analytic invariant manifolds for sequences of diffeomorphisms

We obtain real analytic invariant manifolds for trajectories of maps assuming only the existence of a nonuniform exponential behavior. We also consider the more general case of sequences of maps, which corresponds to a nonautonomous dynamics with discrete time. We emphasize that the maps that we consider are defined in a real Euclidean space, and thus, one is not able to obtain the invariant manifolds from a corresponding procedure to that in the nonuniform hyperbolicity theory in the context of holomorphic dynamics. We establish the existence both of stable (and unstable) manifolds and of center manifolds. As a byproduct of our approach we obtain an exponential control not only for the trajectories on the invariant manifolds, but also for all their derivatives.     

Vanishing theorems for ach Kähler manifolds and harmonic maps

We discuss a class of complete Kähler manifolds which are asymptotically complex hyperbolic near infinity. The main result is vanishing theorems for the second L ² cohomology of such manifolds when it has positive spectrum. We also generalize the result to the weighted Poincaré inequality case and establish a vanishing theorem provided that the weighted function ρ is of sub-quadratic growth of the distance function. We also obtain a vanishing theorem of harmonic maps on manifolds which satisfies the weighted Poincaré inequality.     

REDUCTIVE COMPACT HOMOGENEOUS CR MANIFOLDS

We define and investigate a class of compact homogeneous CR manifolds, that we call $ \mathfrak{n} $ -reductive. They are orbits of minimal dimension of a compact Lie group K ₀ in algebraic affine homogeneous spaces of its complexification K. For these manifolds we obtain canonical equivariant fibrations onto complex flag manifolds, generalizing the Hopf fibration $ {S^3}\to \mathbb{C}{{\mathbb{P}}^1} $ . These fibrations are not, in general, CR submersions, but satisfy the weaker condition of being CR-deployments; to obtain CR submersions we need to strengthen their CR structure by lifting the complex stucture of the base.     

On the cusped fan in a planar portrait of a manifold

Stable maps into the plane are good tools to obtain “views” of higher dimensional manifolds. We introduce the planar portraits to define the “view” properly. To start studying their relation to manifolds, we restrict our attention to their basic piece called the cusped fan. Fibreing structures over the cusped fan are studied and given a geometric characterisation. As by-products, we supply various stable maps and planar portraits of closed manifolds. In particular, two infiniteness properties of planar portraits are shown by using these examples.     

Homology of algebras of families of pseudodifferential operators

We compute the Hochschild, cyclic, and periodic cyclic homology groups of algebras of families of Laurent complete symbols on manifolds with corners. We show in particular that the spectral sequence associated with Hochschild homology degenerates at E² and converges to Hochschild homology. As a byproduct, we identify the space of residue traces on fibrations by manifolds with corners. In the process, we prove some structural results about algebras of complete symbols on manifolds with corners.     

Curvature identities on almost Hermitian manifolds and applications

We systematically derive the Bianchi identities for the canonical connection on an almost Hermitian manifold.Moreover,we also compute the curvature tensor of the Levi-Civita connection on almost Hermitian manifolds in terms of curvature and torsion of the canonical connection.As applications of the curvature identities,we obtain some results about the integrability of quasi K¨ahler manifolds and nearly K¨ahler manifolds.     

Curved Koszul duality of algebras over unital versions of binary operads

We develop a curved Koszul duality theory for algebras presented by quadratic-linear-constant relations over unital versions of binary quadratic operads. As an application, we study Poisson n-algebras given by polynomial functions on a standard shifted symplectic space. We compute explicit resolutions of these algebras using curved Koszul duality. We use these resolutions to compute derived enveloping algebras and factorization homology on parallelized simply connected closed manifolds with coefficients in these Poisson n-algebras.     

On a class of symmetric CR manifolds

We study and classify a large class of minimal orbits in complex flag manifolds for the holomorphic action of a real Lie group. These orbits are all symmetric CR spaces for the restriction of a suitable class of Hermitian invariant metrics on the ambient flag manifold. As a particular case we obtain that the standard compact homogeneous CR manifolds associated with semisimple Levi-Tanaka algebras are symmetric CR-spaces.     

The Szegö kernel on a class of non-compact CR manifolds of high codimension

We generalize Nagel’s formula for the Szegö kernel and use it to compute the Szegö kernel on a class of non-compact CR manifolds whose tangent space decomposes into one complex direction and several totally real directions. We also discuss the control metric on these manifolds and relate it to the size of the Szegö kernel.     

Pseudo-Riemannian manifolds with recurrent spinor fields

The existence of a recurrent spinor field on a pseudo-Riemannian spin manifold (M,g) is closely related to the existence of a parallel 1-dimensional complex subbundle of the spinor bundle of (M,g). We characterize the following simply connected pseudo-Riemannian manifolds that admit these subbundles in terms of their holonomy algebras: Riemannian manifolds, Lorentzian manifolds, pseudo-Riemannian manifolds with irreducible holonomy algebras, and pseudo-Riemannian manifolds of neutral signature admitting two complementary parallel isotropic distributions.     

Hyperbolic 3-manifolds with geodesic boundary: Enumeration and volume calculation

We describe a natural strategy to enumerate compact hyperbolic 3-manifolds with geodesic boundary in increasing order of complexity. We show that the same strategy can be applied in order to analyze simultaneously compact manifolds and finite-volume manifolds with toric cusps. In contrast, we show that if one allows annular cusps, the number of manifolds grows very rapidly and our strategy cannot be employed to obtain a complete list. We also carefully describe how to compute the volume of our manifolds, discussing formulas for the volume of a tetrahedron with generic dihedral angles in hyperbolic space.     

Higher dimensional knot spaces for manifolds with vector cross products

Vector cross product structures on manifolds include symplectic, volume, G₂- and Spin(7)-structures. We show that the knot spaces of such manifolds have natural symplectic structures, and relate instantons and branes in these manifolds to holomorphic disks and Lagrangian submanifolds in their knot spaces.For the complex case, the holomorphic volume form on a Calabi-Yau manifold defines a complex vector cross product structure. We show that its isotropic knot space admits a natural holomorphic symplectic structure. We also relate the Calabi-Yau geometry of the manifold to the holomorphic symplectic geometry of its isotropic knot space.     

Curves on the Oeljeklaus-Toma manifolds

The Oeljeklaus-Toma manifolds are complex non-Kähler manifolds constructed by Oeljeklaus and Toma from certain number fields and generalizing the Inoue surfaces S _m . We prove that the Oeljeklaus-Toma manifolds contain no compact complex curves.     

Complex points of minimal surfaces in almost Kähler manifolds

If (N, ω, J, g) is an almost Kähler manifold andM is a branched minimal immersion which is not aJ-holomorphic curve, we show that the complex tangents are isolated and that each has a negative index, which extends the results in the Kähler case by S. S. Chern and J. Wolfson [2] and S. Webster [7] to almost Kähler manifolds. As an application, we get lower estimates for the genus of embedded minimal surfaces in almost Kähler manifolds. The proofs of these results are based on the well-known Cartan’s moving frame methods as in [2, 7]. In our case, we must compute the torsion of the almost complex structures and find a useful representation of torsion. Finally, we prove that the minimal surfaces in complex projective plane with any almost complex structure is aJ-holomorphic curve if it is homologous to the complex line.     

Regularity ofp-energy minimizing maps andp-superstrongly unstable indices

We derive the first and the second variational formulas forp-energy functional on maps between Riemannian manifolds, obtain a Bochner formula with related estimates and discuss Liouville-type theorems and the regularity ofp-minimizers. In particular, via an extrinsic average variational method,p-superstrongly unstable manifolds and indices are found and their role in the regularity theory is established.     

Stable manifolds for nonuniform polynomial dichotomies

We establish the existence of smooth stable manifolds in Banach spaces for sufficiently small perturbations of a new type of dichotomy that we call nonuniform polynomial dichotomy. This new dichotomy is more restrictive in the “nonuniform part” but allow the “uniform part” to obey a polynomial law instead of an exponential (more restrictive) law. We consider two families of perturbations. For one of the families we obtain local Lipschitz stable manifolds and for the other family, assuming more restrictive conditions on the perturbations and its derivatives, we obtain C¹ global stable manifolds. Finally we present an example of a family of nonuniform polynomial dichotomies and apply our results to obtain stable manifolds for some perturbations of this family.
