Beckman-Quarles type theorems for mappings from $$ \mathbb{R}^n $$ to $$ \mathbb{C}^n $$

Summary. Let We say that preserves the distance d 0 if for each implies Let A _n denote the set of all positive numbers d such that any map that preserves unit distance preserves also distance d. Let D _n denote the set of all positive numbers d with the property: if and then there exists a finite set S _xy with such that any map that preserves unit distance preserves also the distance between x and y. Obviously, We prove: (1) (2) for n 2 D _n is a dense subset of (2) implies that each mapping f from to (n 2) preserving unit distance preserves all distances, if f is continuous with respect to the product topologies on and      

A note on compact Weingarten hypersurfaces embedded in $$\mathbb {R}^{n + 1}$$

We prove that the round sphere is the only compact Weingarten hypersurface embedded in the Euclidean space such that \(H_r = aH + b\), for constants \(a, b \in \mathbb {R}\). Here, \(H_r\) stands for the r-th mean curvature and H denotes the standard mean curvature of the hypersurface.     

Syzygies of Multi-Variable Higher Spin Dirac Operators on $$\mathbb{R}^{3}$$

This paper is a short report on the generalization of some results of our previous paper [12] to the case of spin j/2 Dirac operators in real dimension three for arbitrary odd integer j. We use an explicit formula for the local expression of such operators to study their algebraic properties, construct the compatibility conditions of the overdetermined system associated to the operator in several spatial variables, and we prove that its associated algebraic complex, dual do the BGG sequence coming from representation theory, has substantially the same pattern as the Cauchy-Fueter complex.

Laguerre geometry of hypersurfaces in $$\mathbb{R}^{n}$$

Laguerre geometry of surfaces in is given in the book of Blaschke [Vorlesungen über Differentialgeometrie, Springer, Berlin Heidelberg New York (1929)], and has been studied by Musso and Nicolodi [Trans. Am. Math. soc. 348, 4321–4337 (1996); Abh. Math. Sem. Univ. Hamburg 69, 123–138 (1999); Int. J. Math. 11(7), 911–924 (2000)], Palmer [Remarks on a variation problem in Laguerre geometry. Rendiconti di Mathematica, Serie VII, Roma, vol. 19, pp. 281–293 (1999)] and other authors. In this paper we study Laguerre differential geometry of hypersurfaces in . For any umbilical free hypersurface with non-zero principal curvatures we define a Laguerre invariant metric g on M and a Laguerre invariant self-adjoint operator : TM → TM, and show that is a complete Laguerre invariant system for hypersurfaces in with n≥ 4. We calculate the Euler–Lagrange equation for the Laguerre volume functional of Laguerre metric by using Laguerre invariants. Using the Euclidean space , the semi-Euclidean space and the degenerate space we define three Laguerre space forms , and and define the Laguerre embeddings and , analogously to what happens in the Moebius geometry where we have Moebius space forms S ⁿ , and (spaces of constant curvature) and conformal embeddings and [cf. Liu et al. in Tohoku Math. J. 53, 553–569 (2001) and Wang in Manuscr. Math. 96, 517–534 (1998)]. Using these Laguerre embeddings we can unify the Laguerre geometry of hypersurfaces in , and . As an example we show that minimal surfaces in or are Laguerre minimal in .C. Wang Partially supported by RFDP and Chuang-Xin-Qun-Ti of NSFC.     

A note on plurisubharmonic defining functions in$$\mathbb{C}^2$$

Let Ω ?? \(\mathbb{C}^2\) be a smoothly bounded domain. Suppose that Ω admits a smooth defining function which is plurisubharmonic on the boundary of Ω. Then the Diederich-Fornæss exponent can be chosen arbitrarily close to 1, and the closure of Ω admits a Stein neighborhood basis.     

New complete embedded minimal surfaces in $${{\mathbb {H} ^2\times \mathbb {R}}}$$

We construct three kinds of complete embedded minimal surfaces in \({\mathbb {H}^2\times \mathbb {R}}\) . The first is a simply connected, singly periodic, infinite total curvature surface. The second is an annular finite total curvature surface. These two are conjugate surfaces just as the helicoid and the catenoid are in \({\mathbb {R}^3}\) . The third one is a finite total curvature surface which is conformal to \({\mathbb {S}^2\setminus\{p_1,\ldots,p_k\}, k\geq3.}\)     

On lattices of convex sets in {\mathbb{R}}^{n}

Properties of several sorts of lattices of convex subsets of are examined. The lattice of convex sets containing the origin turns out, for n > 1, to satisfy a set of identities strictly between those of the lattice of all convex subsets of and the lattice of all convex subsets of The lattices of arbitrary, of open bounded, and of compact convex sets in all satisfy the same identities, but the last of these is join-semidistributive, while for n > 1 the first two are not. The lattice of relatively convex subsets of a fixed set satisfies some, but in general not all of the identities of the lattice of “genuine” convex subsets of To the memory of Ivan RivalReceived April 22, 2003; accepted in final form February 16, 2005.This revised version was published online in August 2005 with a corrected cover date.     

Surfaces in $${\mathbb{S}^2\times\mathbb{R}}$$ with a canonical principal direction

We show a way to choose nice coordinates on a surface in and use this to study minimal surfaces. We show that only open parts of cylinders over a geodesic in are both minimal and flat. We also show that the condition that the projection of the direction tangent to onto the tangent space of the surface is a principal direction, is equivalent to the condition that the surface is normally flat in . We present classification theorems under the extra assumption of minimality or flatness. J. Fastenakels is a research assistant of the Research Foundation—Flanders (FWO). J.

Nonexistence of generalized bent functions from $$\mathbb {Z}_{2}^{n}$$ to $$\mathbb {Z}_{m}$$Zm

In this paper, several nonexistence results on generalized bent functions \(f:\mathbb {Z}_{2}^{n} \rightarrow \mathbb {Z}_{m}\) are presented by using the knowledge on cyclotomic number fields and their imaginary quadratic subfields.     

Complete negatively curved immersed ends in $$\mathbb {R}^3$$

This paper extends, in a sharp way, the famous Efimov’s Theorem to immersed ends in \(\mathbb {R}^3\). More precisely, let M be a non-compact connected surface with compact boundary. Then there is no complete isometric immersion of M into \(\mathbb {R}^3\) satisfying that \(\int _M |K|=+\infty \) and \(K\le -\kappa <0\), where \(\kappa \) is a positive constant and K is the Gaussian curvature of M. In particular Efimov’s Theorem holds for complete Hadamard immersed surfaces, whose Gaussian curvature K is bounded away from zero outside a compact set.

On Quadratic Differentials and Twisted Normal Maps of Surfaces in {\mathbb{S}^{2} \times\mathbb{R}} and {\mathbb{H}^{2} \times\mathbb{R}}

Given a Lie group G with a bi-invariant metric and a compact Lie subgroup K, Bittencourt and Ripoll used the homogeneous structure of quotient spaces to define a Gauss map ${\mathcal{N}:M^{n}\rightarrow{\mathbb{S}}}$ on any hypersupersurface ${M^{n}\looparrowright G/K}$ , where ${{\mathbb{S}}}$ is the unit sphere of the Lie algebra of G. It is proved in Bittencourt and Ripoll (Pacific J Math 224:45–64, 2006) that M ⁿ having constant mean curvature (CMC) is equivalent to ${\mathcal{N}}$ being harmonic, a generalization of a Ruh–Vilms theorem for submanifolds in the Euclidean space. In particular, when n = 2, the induced quadratic differential ${\mathcal{Q}_{\mathcal{N}}:=(\mathcal{N}^{\ast}g)^{2,0}}$ is holomorphic on CMC surfaces of G/K. In this paper, we take ${G/K={\mathbb{S}}^{2}\times{\mathbb{R}}}$ and compare ${\mathcal{Q}_{\mathcal{N}}}$ with the Abresch–Rosenberg differential ${\mathcal{Q}}$ , also holomorphic for CMC surfaces. It is proved that ${\mathcal{Q}=\mathcal{Q}_{\mathcal{N}}}$ , after showing that ${\mathcal{N}}$ is the twisted normal given by (1.5) herein. Then we define the twisted normal for surfaces in ${{\mathbb{H}}^{2}\times{\mathbb{R}}}$ and prove that ${\mathcal{Q}=\mathcal{Q}_{\mathcal{N}}}$ as well. Within the unified model for the two product spaces, we compute the tension field of ${\mathcal{N}}$ and extend to surfaces in ${{\mathbb{H}}^{2}\times{\mathbb{R}}}$ the equivalence between the CMC property and the harmonicity of ${\mathcal{N}.}$      

Rank-one convex hulls in \mathbb{R}^{2\times2}

We study the rank-one convex hull of compact sets . We show that if K contains no two matrices whose difference has rank one, and if K contains no four matrices forming a T ₄ configuration, then the rank-one convex hull K ^rc is equal to K. Furthermore, we give a simple numerical criterion for testing for T ₄ configurations.
