Sharp Interpolation Inequalities on the Sphere: New Methods and Consequences

This paper is devoted to various considerations on a family of sharp interpolation inequalities on the sphere, which in dimension greater than 1 interpolate between Poincaré, logarithmic Sobolev and critical Sobolev (Onofri in dimension two) inequalities. The connection between optimal constants and spectral properties of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on the sphere is emphasized. The authors address a series of related observations and give proofs based on symmetrization and the ultraspherical setting.

THE POINCAR-BERTRAND FORMULA ON THE BUILDING DOMAIN OF COMPLEX BIBALLS

The Poincaré-Bertrand formula takes an important position in the study of complex singular integral.The Poincaré-Bertrand formula on the complex sphere in the multidimensional complex Euclidian spaces was given by Sheng Gong.Using the method of solid angular coefficient,the authors extend the Poincaré-Bertrand formula on the complex sphere to the building domain of the complex biballs,and obtain a more general Poincaré-Bertrand formula with the solid angular coefficients.     

Analysis on free Riemannian path spaces

The gradient operator is defined on the free path space with reference measure Pμ, the law of the Brownian motion on the base manifold with initial distribution μ, where μ has strictly positive density w.r.t. the volume measure. The formula of integration by parts is established for the underlying directional derivatives, which implies the closability of the gradient operator so that it induces a conservative Dirichlet form on the free path space. The log-Sobolev inequality for this Dirichlet form is established and, consequently, the transportation cost inequality is obtained for the associated intrinsic distance.     

Locally Minimizing Smooth Harmonic Maps from Asymptotically at Manifolds into Spheres

By minimizing the so-called relative energy, we show that there exists a family of locally minimizing smooth harmonic maps from asymptotically flat manifolds into the standard sphere.     

Isoperimetric inequality for radial probability measures on Euclidean spaces

We generalize the Poincaré limit which asserts that the n-dimensional Gaussian measure is approximated by the projections of the uniform probability measure on the Euclidean sphere of appropriate radius to the first n-coordinates as the dimension diverges to infinity. The generalization is done by replacing the projections with certain maps. Using this generalization, we derive a Gaussian isoperimetric inequality for an absolutely continuous probability measure on Euclidean spaces with respect to the Lebesgue measure, whose density is a radial function.

Extrinsic estimates for eigenvalues of the Dirac operator

For a compact spin manifold M isometrically embedded into Euclidean space, we derive the extrinsic estimates from above and below for eigenvalues of the square of the Dirac operator, which depend on the second fundamental form of the embedding. We also show the bounds of the ratio of the eigenvalues. Since the unit sphere and the projective spaces admit the standard embedding into Euclidean spaces, we also obtain the corresponding results for their compact spin submanifolds.     

An investigation of feasible descent algorithms for?estimating the condition number of a matrix

Techniques for estimating the condition number of a nonsingular matrix are developed. It is shown that Hager??s 1-norm condition number estimator is equivalent to the conditional gradient algorithm applied to the problem of maximizing the 1-norm of a matrix-vector product over the unit sphere in the 1-norm. By changing the constraint in this optimization problem from the unit sphere to the unit simplex, a new formulation is obtained which is the basis for both conditional gradient and projected gradient algorithms. In the test problems, the spectral projected gradient algorithm yields condition number estimates at least as good as those obtained by the previous approach. Moreover, in some cases, the spectral gradient projection algorithm, with a careful choice of the parameters, yields improved condition number estimates.     

Explicit H1-Estimate for the Solution of the Lamé System with Mixed Boundary Conditions

In this paper we consider the Lamé system on a polygonal convex domain with mixed boundary conditions of Dirichlet-Neumann type. An explicit L² norm estimate for the gradient of the solution of this problem is established. This leads to an explicit bound of the H¹ norm of this solution. Note that the obtained upper-bound is not optimal.

Vitushkin’s germ theorem for engel-type CR manifolds

We study real analytic CR manifolds of CR dimension 1 and codimension 2 in the three-dimensional complex space. We prove that the germ of a holomorphic mapping between “nonspherical” manifolds can be extended along any path (this is an analog of Vitushkin’s germ theorem). For a cubic model surface (“sphere”), we prove an analog of the Poincaré theorem on the mappings of spheres into ?². We construct an example of a compact “spherical” submanifold in a compact complex 3-space such that the germ of a mapping of the “sphere” into this submanifold cannot be extended to a certain point of the “sphere.”     

Gradient estimates for the heat equation under the Ricci flow

The paper considers a manifold M evolving under the Ricci flow and establishes a series of gradient estimates for positive solutions of the heat equation on M. Among other results, we prove Li-Yau-type inequalities in this context. We consider both the case where M is a complete manifold without boundary and the case where M is a compact manifold with boundary. Applications of our results include Harnack inequalities for the heat equation on M.     

On the Representation of Band-Dominant Functions on the Sphere Using Finitely Many Bits

A band-dominant function on the Euclidean sphere embedded in R ^q+1 is the restriction to this sphere of an entire function of q+1 complex variables having a finite exponential type in each of its variables. We develop a method to represent such a function using finitely many bits, using the values of the function at scattered sites on the sphere. The number of bits required in our representation is asymptotically the same as the metric entropy of the class of such functions with respect to any of the L ^p norms on the sphere.     

Global gradient estimate on graph and its applications

Continuing our previous work(ar Xiv:1509.07981v1),we derive another global gradient estimate for positive functions,particularly for positive solutions to the heat equation on finite or locally finite graphs.In general,the gradient estimate in the present paper is independent of our previous one.As applications,it can be used to get an upper bound and a lower bound of the heat kernel on locally finite graphs.These global gradient estimates can be compared with the Li–Yau inequality on graphs contributed by Bauer et al.[J.Differential Geom.,99,359–409(2015)].In many topics,such as eigenvalue estimate and heat kernel estimate(not including the Liouville type theorems),replacing the Li–Yau inequality by the global gradient estimate,we can get similar results.     

Boundedness of the gradient for a doubly nonlinear parabolic equation

We prove the local boundedness of the gradient for positive solutions to a doubly nonlinear parabolic equation in the case when the standard Lebesgue measure has been replaced by a doubling measure which supports a weak Poincaré inequality.     

Gradient estimate for solutions to Poisson equations in metric measure spaces

Let (X,d) be a complete, pathwise connected metric measure space with a locally Ahlfors Q-regular measure μ, where Q>1. Suppose that (X,d,μ) supports a (local) (1,2)-Poincaré inequality and a suitable curvature lower bound. For the Poisson equation Δu=f on (X,d,μ), Moser-Trudinger and Sobolev inequalities are established for the gradient of u. The local Hölder continuity with optimal exponent of solutions is obtained.
