We generalize the Morse index theorem of [12,15] and we apply the new result to obtain lower estimates on the number of geodesics
joining two fixed non conjugate points in certain classes of semi-Riemannian manifolds. More specifically, we consider semi-Riemannian
manifolds admitting a smooth distribution spanned by commuting Killing vector fields and containing a maximal negative distribution
for . In particular we obtain Morse relations for stationary semi-Riemannian manifolds (see [7]) and for the G?del-type manifolds (see [3]).

We consider the system
which is an unbounded Hamiltonian system in . We assume that the constant function is a stationary solution, and that H and V are periodic in the t and x variables. We present a variational formulation in order to obtain homoclinic solutions z=(u,v) satisfying as . It is allowed that V changes sign and that has essential spectrum below (and above) 0. We also treat the case of a bounded domain instead of with Dirichlet boundary conditions.

Let X be a 3 local, finite, simply connected H-space with associative homology ring . Some known examples are the Lie group , Harper's H-space X(3) and any odd dimensional sphere . We prove the cohomology algebra is isomorphic to the cohomology algebra of a finite product of and odd dimensional spheres.

The partitioning problem for a smooth convex bodyB 3 consists in to study, among surfaces which divideB in two pieces of prescribed volume, those which are critical points of the area functional.We study stable solutions of the above problem: we obtain several topological and geometrical restrictions for this kind of surfaces. In the case thatB is a Euclidean ball we obtain stronger results.Antonio Ros is partially supported by DGICYT grant PB91-0731 and Enaldo Vergasta is partially supported by CNPq grant 202326/91-8. 相似文献

Abstract. We give a new proof of a theorem of Bethuel, asserting that arbitrary weak solutions of the H-surface system are locally H?lder continuous provided that H is a bounded Lipschitz function. Contrary to Bethuel's, our proof completely omits Lorentz spaces. Estimates below natural
exponents of integrability are used instead. (The same method yields a new proof of Hélein's theorem on regularity of harmonic
maps from surfaces into arbitrary compact Riemannian manifolds.) We also prove that weak solutions with continuous trace are
continuous up to the boundary, and give an extension of these results to the equation of hypersurfaces of prescribed mean
curvature in , this time assuming in addition that decays at infinity like .

In this paper, we study ruled Weingarten surfaces M : x (s, t) = α(s) + tβ (s) in Minkowski 3-space on which there is a nontrivial functional relation between a pair of elements of the set {K, KII, H, HII}, where K is the Gaussian curvature, KII is the second Gaussian curvature, H is the mean curvature, and HII is the second mean curvature. We also study ruled linear Weingarten surfaces in Minkowski 3-space such that the linear combination
aKII + bH + cHII + dK is constant along each ruling for some constants a, b, c, d with a2 + b2 + c2 ≠ 0. 相似文献

This paper addresses a conjecture of Concus and Finn [Capillary Wedges Revisited, SIAM J. Math. Anal., in press] on conditions for local existence of solutions of the zero-gravity capillarity equation at a boundary protruding corner pointP of prescribed opening 2. Geometrically, surfaces of constant mean curvatureH are sought as graphs which meet vertical walls over the boundary in prescribed angles, which are locally constant except for a possible jump discontinuity atP. The conjecture is settled more or less completely in the affirmative, depending on whetherH is to be prescribed. The proof proceeds through a global existence theorem for moon domains, which seems of independent interest. 相似文献

We solve the asymptotic Plateau problem in every Gromov hyperbolic Hadamard manifold (X,g) with bounded geometry. That is, we prove existence of complete (possibly singular) k-dimensional area minimizing surfaces in X with prescribed boundary data at infinity, for a large class of admissible limit sets and for all . The result also holds with respect to any riemannian metric on X which is lipschitz equivalent to g.

We study the classical action functional ${\cal S}_V$ on the free loop space of a closed, finite dimensional Riemannian manifold
M and the symplectic action on the free loop space of its cotangent bundle. The critical points of both functionals can be identified with the set of
perturbed closed geodesics in M. The potential $V\in C^\infty(M\times S^1,\mathbb{R})$ serves as perturbation and we show that both functionals are Morse
for generic V. In this case we prove that the Morse index of a critical point x of equals minus its Conley-Zehnder index when viewed as a critical point of and if is trivial. Otherwise a correction term +1 appears.

We study the stability of a compact Lagrangian submanifold of a symplectic manifold under perturbation of the symplectic
structure. If X is a compact manifold and the ω

of diffeomorphisms of X such that ω

L
is exact for every t, a family L
t
as above still exists, for
sufficiently small t. Similar results are proved concerning the stability of special Lagrangian and Bohr–Sommerfeld special Lagrangian submanifolds,
under perturbation of the ambient Calabi–Yau structure.

We give an existence result for constant mean curvature graphs in hyperbolic space . Let be a compact domain of a horosphere in whose boundary is mean convex, that is, its mean curvature (as a submanifold of the horosphere) is positive with respect to the inner orientation. If H is a number such that , then there exists a graph over with constant mean curvature H and boundary . Umbilical examples, when is a sphere, show that our hypothesis on H is the best possible.

We consider the family of fibres of a polynomial function f on a smooth noncompact algebraic real surface and we characterise the regular fibres of f which are atypical due to their asymptotic behaviour at infinity. We compare to the similar problem in the complex case.

Energy decay for the linear and semilinear wave equations in exterior domains with some localized dissipations 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

with , where and a(x) is a nonnegative function which is positive near some part of the boundary and near infinity. We apply these estimates to prove the global existence of decaying solutions for semilinear wave equations
with nonlinearity f(u) like . We note that no geometrical condition is imposed on the boundary .

Let G be a countable discrete group. Call two subgroups and of G commensurable if has finite index in both and . We say that an action of G on a discrete set X has noncommensurable stabilizers if the stabilizers of any two distinct points of X are not commensurable. We prove in this paper that the action of the map
ping class group on the complex of curves has noncommensurable stabilizers. Following a method due to Burger and de la Harpe,
this action leads to constructions of irreducible unitary representations of the mapping class group.
