Linear Restriction Estimates for Schrödinger Equation on Metric Cones

In this paper, we study some modified linear restriction estimates of the dynamics generated by Schrödinger operator on metric cone M, where the metric cone M is of the form M = (0, ∞) _r  × Σ, with the cross section Σ being a compact (n ? 1)-dimensional Riemannian manifold (Σ, h) and the equipped metric being g = dr ² + r ² h. Assuming the initial data possesses additional regularity in angular variable θ ∈ Σ, we show some linear restriction estimates for the solutions. In terms of their applications, we obtain global-in-time Strichartz estimates for radial initial data and show small initial data scattering theory for the mass-critical nonlinear Schrödinger equation on two-dimensional metric cones.     

Lie-admissible algebras and generalized witt algebras ∗

The symmetric group 𝔖_n+1 of degree n + 1 admits an n-dimensional irreducible Q𝔖_n-module V corresponding to the hook partition (2, 1^n?1). By the work of Craig and Plesken, we know that there are σ(n + 1) many isomorphism classes of Z𝔖_n+1-lattices which are rationally equivalent to V, where σ denotes the divisor counting function. In the present article, we explicitly compute the Solomon zeta function of these lattices. As an application we obtain the Solomon zeta function of the Z𝔖_n+1-lattice defined by the Specht basis.     

Sharp upper bounds on the number of the scattering poles

We study the scattering poles of a compactly supported “black box” perturbations of the Laplacian in Rⁿ, n odd. We prove a sharp upper bound of the counting function N(r) modulo o(rⁿ) in terms of the counting function of the reference operator in the smallest ball around the black box. In the most interesting cases, we prove a bound of the type N(r)?A_nrⁿ+o(rⁿ) with an explicit A_n. We prove that this bound is sharp in a few special spherically symmetric cases where the bound turns into an asymptotic formula.     

Some results on (k, μ)′-almost Kenmotsu manifolds

In this paper, we study the Weyl conformal curvature tensor 𝒲 and the concircular curvature tensor 𝒞 on a (k, μ)′-almost Kenmotsu manifold M²ⁿ⁺¹ of dimension greater than 3. We obtain that if M²ⁿ⁺¹ satisfies either R · 𝒲 = 0 or 𝒞 · 𝒞 = 0, then it is locally isometric to either the hyperbolic space ?²ⁿ⁺¹ (?1) or the Riemannian product ?ⁿ⁺¹(?4) × ?ⁿ.     

Rigidity for Closed Totally Umbilical Hypersurfaces in Space Forms

In Perez (Thesis, 2011), Perez proved some L ² inequalities for closed convex hypersurfaces immersed in the Euclidean space ? ⁿ⁺¹, and more generally for closed hypersurfaces with non-negative Ricci curvature, immersed in an Einstein manifold. In this paper, we discuss the rigidity of these inequalities when the ambient manifold is ? ⁿ⁺¹, the hyperbolic space ? ⁿ⁺¹, or the closed hemisphere \(\mathbb{S}_{+}^{n+1}\) . We also obtain a generalization of Perez’s theorem to the hypersurfaces without the hypothesis of non-negative Ricci curvature.     

Closed Geodesics in Homology Classes for Convex Co-Compact Hyperbolic Manifolds

Let be a convex co-compact, torsion-free, discrete group of isometries of real hyperbolic space H ⁿ⁺¹. We compute the asymptotics of the counting function for closed geodesics in homology classes for the quotient manifold X = \H ⁿ⁺¹, under the assumption that H ¹(X, Z) is infinite. Our results imply asymptotic equipartition of geodesics in distinct homology classes.     

Infeasible Mehrotra-Type Predictor-Corrector Interior-Point Algorithm for the Cartesian P *(κ)-LCP Over Symmetric Cones

We propose an infeasible Mehrotra-type predictor-corrector algorithm with a new center parameter updating scheme for Cartesian P _*(κ)-linear complementarity problem over symmetric cones. Based on the Nesterov-Todd direction, we show that the iteration-complexity bound of the proposed algorithm is 𝒪((1 + κ)³ r ²log ε^?1), where r is the rank of the associated Euclidean Jordan algebras and κ is the handicap of the problem and ε > 0 is the required precision. Some numerical results are reported as well.     

Manifolds with small Dirac eigenvalues are nilmanifolds

Consider the class of n-dimensional Riemannian spin manifolds with bounded sectional curvatures and bounded diameter, and almost non-negative scalar curvature. Let r = 1 if n = 2,3 and r = 2^[n/2]-1 + 1 if n ≥ 4. We show that if the square of the Dirac operator on such a manifold has r small eigenvalues, then the manifold is diffeomorphic to a nilmanifold and has trivial spin structure. Equivalently, if M is not a nilmanifold or if M is a nilmanifold with a non-trivial spin structure, then there exists a uniform lower bound on the r-th eigenvalue of the square of the Dirac operator. If a manifold with almost non-negative scalar curvature has one small Dirac eigenvalue, and if the volume is not too small, then we show that the metric is close to a Ricci-flat metric on M with a parallel spinor. In dimension 4 this implies that M is either a torus or a K3-surface.      

Microlocal properties of scattering matrices

We consider the scattering theory for a pair of operators H₀ and H = H₀ + V on L²(M, m), where M is a Riemannian manifold, H₀ is a multiplication operator on M, and V is a pseudodifferential operator of order ? μ, μ > 1. We show that a time-dependent scattering theory can be constructed, and the scattering matrix is a pseudodifferential operator on each energy surface. Moreover, the principal symbol of the scattering matrix is given by a Born approximation type function. The main motivation of the study comes from applications to discrete Schrödigner operators, and it also applies to various differential operators with constant coefficients and short-range perturbations on Euclidean spaces.     

Inverse Scattering for Schrödinger Operators with Miura Potentials,II. Different Riccati Representatives

This is the second in a series of papers on scattering theory for one-dimensional Schrödinger operators with Miura potentials admitting a Riccati representation of the form q = u′ + u ² for some u ∈ L ²(?). We consider potentials for which there exist ‘left’ and ‘right’ Riccati representatives with prescribed integrability on half-lines. This class includes all Faddeev–Marchenko potentials in L ¹(?, (1 + |x|)dx) generating positive Schrödinger operators as well as many distributional potentials with Dirac delta-functions and Coulomb-like singularities. We completely describe the corresponding set of reflection coefficients r and justify the algorithm reconstructing q from r.     

Dynamical borel-cantelli lemma for hyperbolic spaces

We prove that almost every (resp. almost no) geodesic rays in a finite volume hyperbolic manifold of real dimensionn intersects for arbitrary large timest a decreasing family of balls of radiusr _t, provided the integral ∫ ₀ ^∞ r _t ⁿ −1 dt diverges (resp. converges).     

L p Error Estimates for Scattered Data Interpolation On Spheres

In this article, working with the sphere 𝕊 ^d embedded in the (d + 1)-dimensional Euclidean space ? ^d+1 as the underlying manifold, we obtain an error estimate for interpolating functions f ∈ H _μ from shifts of a smooth positive definite function defined on 𝕊 ^d , where H _μ is a Sobolev space. We also get an L ^p error estimate for f by using a method of Duchon framework.     

Recovering the Geometry of a Flat Spacetime from Background Radiation

We consider globally hyperbolic flat spacetimes in 2 + 1 and 3 + 1 dimensions, in which a uniform light signal is emitted on the r-level surface of the cosmological time for r → 0. We show that the frequency shift of this signal, as perceived by a fixed observer, is a well-defined, bounded function which is generally not continuous. This defines a model with anisotropic background radiation that contains information about initial singularity of the spacetime. In dimension 2 + 1, we show that this observed frequency shift function is stable under suitable perturbations of the spacetime, and that, under certain conditions, it contains sufficient information to recover its geometry and topology. We compute an approximation of this frequency shift function for a few simple examples.     

Resolvent of the Laplacian on geometrically finite hyperbolic manifolds

For geometrically finite hyperbolic manifolds Γ\ℍ ⁿ⁺¹, we prove the meromorphic extension of the resolvent of Laplacian, Poincaré series, Einsenstein series and scattering operator to the whole complex plane. We also deduce the asymptotics of lattice points of Γ in large balls of ℍ ⁿ⁺¹ in terms of the Hausdorff dimension of the limit set of Γ.     

A bound on the plurigenera of projective varieties

We exhibit a sharp Castelnuovo bound for the i-th plurigenus of a smooth variety of given dimension n and degree d in the projective space P ^r , and classify the varieties attaining the bound, when n2, r2n+1, d>>r and i>>r. When n=2 and r=5, or n=3 and r=7, we give a complete classification, i.e. for any i1. In certain cases, the varieties with maximal plurigenus are not Castelnuovo varieties, i.e. varieties with maximal geometric genus. For example, a Castelnuovo variety complete intersection on a variety of dimension n+1 and minimal degree in P ^r , with r>(n ² +3n)/(n–1), has not maximal i-th plurigenus, for i>>r. As a consequence of the bound on the plurigenera, we obtain an upper bound for the self-intersection of the canonical bundle of a smooth projective variety, whose canonical bundle is big and nef.

Coloring uniform hypergraphs with few colors

Let m(r, k) denote the minimum number of edges in an r‐uniform hypergraph that is not k‐colorable. We give a new lower bound on m(r, k) for fixed k and large r. Namely, we prove that if k ≥ 2ⁿ, then m(r, k) ≥ ?(k)k^r(r/ln r)^n/(n+1). © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Random Struct. Alg., 2004     

Estimate for index of hypersurfaces in spheres with null higher order mean curvature

In a recent paper (Barros, Sousa in: Kodai Math. J. 2009) the authors proved that closed oriented non-totally geodesic minimal hypersurfaces of the Euclidean unit sphere have index of stability greater than or equal to n + 3 with equality occurring at only Clifford tori provided their second fundamental forms A satisfy the pinching: |A|² ≥ n. The natural generalization for this pinching is ?(r + 2)S _r+2 ≥ (n ? r)S _r  > 0. Under this condition we shall extend such result for closed oriented hypersurface Σ ⁿ of the Euclidean unit sphere ${\mathbb{S}^{n+1}}$ with null S _r+1 mean curvature by showing that the index of r-stability, ${Ind_{\Sigma^n}^{r}}$ , also satisfies ${Ind_{\Sigma^n}^{r}\ge n+3}$ . Instead of the previous hypothesis if we consider ${\frac{S_{r+2}}{{S_r}}}$ constant we have the same conclusion. Moreover, we shall prove that, up to Clifford tori, closed oriented hypersurfaces ${\Sigma^{n}\subset \mathbb{S}^{n+1}}$ with S _r+1 = 0 and S _r+2 < 0 have index of r-stability greater than or equal to 2n + 5.     

Simplicity of Some Derivations of k[x,y]

If k is a field of characteristic zero, c ∈ k?0, and 1 ≤ s ≤ r are integers such that either r ? s + 1 divides s or s divides r ? s + 1, then it is shown that the derivation y ^r ? _x  + (xy ^s  + c)? _y of the polynomial ring k[x, y] is simple.
