Parametric CR-umbilical locus of ellipsoids in C2

For every real numbers $a?1$, $b?1$ with $(a,b)\ne (1,1)$, the curve parametrized by $\theta \in \mathbb{R}$ valued in ${\mathbb{C}}^2?{\mathbb{R}}^4$

$\gamma :\theta ?(x(\theta )+\sqrt{?1}y(\theta ),u(\theta )+\sqrt{?1}v(\theta ))$

with components:

$\begin{array}{c}x(\theta ):=\sqrt{\frac{a?1}{a(ab?1)}}\cos ?\theta ,y(\theta ):=\sqrt{\frac{b(a?1)}{ab?1}}\sin ?\theta ,\hfill \\ u(\theta ):=\sqrt{\frac{b?1}{b(ab?1)}}\sin ?\theta ,v(\theta ):=?\sqrt{\frac{a(b?1)}{ab?1}}\cos ?\theta ,\hfill \end{array}$

has image contained in the CR-umbilical locus:

$\gamma (\mathbb{R})?\mathsf{UmbCR}\left({\mathsf{E}}_{a,b}\right)?{\mathsf{E}}_{a,b}$

of the ellipsoid ${\mathsf{E}}_{a,b}?{\mathbb{C}}^2$ of equation $a{x}^2+y^2+b{u}^2+v^2=1$, where the CR-umbilical locus of a Levi nondegenerate hypersurface $M^3?{\mathbb{C}}^2$ is the set of points at which the Cartan curvature of M vanishes.     

Compact embedding results of Sobolev spaces and existence of positive solutions to quasilinear equations

In this paper, we study mainly the existence of multiple positive solutions for a quasilinear elliptic equation of the following form on ${\mathbf{R}}^N$, when $N\ge 2$,

(0.1)$?{\mathrm{\Delta }}_{N}u+V(x){\left|u\right|}^{N?2}u=\lambda {\left|u\right|}^{r?2}u+f(x,u).$

Here, $V(x)>0:{\mathbf{R}}^N\to \mathbf{R}$ is a suitable potential function, $r\in (1,N)$, $f(x,u)$ is a continuous function of N-superlinear and subcritical exponential growth without having the Ambrosetti–Rabinowitz condition, while $\lambda >0$ is a constant. A suitable Moser–Trudinger inequality and the compact embedding $W_{\mathrm{V}}^{1,N}\left({\mathbf{R}}^N\right)?L^r\left({\mathbf{R}}^N\right)$ are proved to study problem (0.1). Moreover, the compact embedding $H_{\mathrm{V}}^1\left({\mathbf{R}}^N\right)?L_{\mathrm{K}}^t\left({\mathbf{R}}^N\right)$ is also analyzed to investigate the existence of a positive ground state to the following nonlinear Schrödinger equation

(0.2)$?\mathrm{\Delta }u+V(x)u=K(x)g(u)$

with potentials vanishing at infinity in a measure-theoretic sense when $N\ge 3$.     

The full automorphism group of T‾

Let $\stackrel{￣}{G}$ be the wonderful compactification of a simple affine algebraic group G of adjoint type defined over $\mathbb{C}$. Let $\stackrel{￣}{T}?\stackrel{￣}{G}$ be the closure of a maximal torus $T?G$. We prove that the group of all automorphisms of the variety $\stackrel{￣}{T}$ is the semi-direct product $N_G(T)?D$, where $N_G(T)$ is the normalizer of T in G and D is the group of all automorphisms of the Dynkin diagram, if $G\ne \mathrm{PSL}(2,\mathbb{C})$. Note that if $G=\mathrm{PSL}(2,\mathbb{C})$, then $\stackrel{￣}{T}=\mathbb{C}{\mathbb{P}}^1$ and so in this case $\text{Aut}(\stackrel{￣}{T})=\mathrm{PSL}(2,\mathbb{C})$.     

On the stability of flat complex vector bundles over parallelizable manifolds

We investigate the flat holomorphic vector bundles over compact complex parallelizable manifolds $G/\mathrm{\Gamma }$, where G is a complex connected Lie group and Γ is a cocompact lattice in it. The main result proved here is a structure theorem for flat holomorphic vector bundles $E_{\rho }$ associated with any irreducible representation $\rho :\mathrm{\Gamma }?\text{GL}(r,\mathbb{C})$. More precisely, we prove that $E_{\rho }$ is holomorphically isomorphic to a vector bundle of the form $E^{\oplus n}$, where E is a stable vector bundle. All the rational Chern classes of E vanish, in particular, its degree is zero.We deduce a stability result for flat holomorphic vector bundles $E_{\rho }$ of rank 2 over $G/\mathrm{\Gamma }$. If an irreducible representation $\rho :\mathrm{\Gamma }?\text{GL}(2,\mathbb{C})$ satisfies the condition that the induced homomorphism $\mathrm{\Gamma }?\mathrm{PGL}(2,\mathbb{C})$ does not extend to a homomorphism from G, then $E_{\rho }$ is proved to be stable.     

Fast local searches and updates in bounded universes

Given a bounded universe $\{0,1,\dots ,U?1\}$, we show how to perform predecessor searches in $O(\log \log \mathrm{\Delta })$ expected time, where Δ is the difference between the element being searched for and its predecessor in the structure, while supporting updates in $O(\log \log \mathrm{\Delta })$ expected amortized time, as well. This unifies the results of traditional bounded universe structures (which support predecessor searches in $O(\log \log U)$ time) and hashing (which supports membership queries in $O(1)$ time). We also show how these results can be applied to approximate nearest neighbour queries and range searching.     

On two Diophantine inequalities over primes

Let $1<c<37∕18,c\ne 2$ and $N$ be a sufficiently large real number. In this paper, we prove that, for almost all $R\in (N,2N]$, the Diophantine inequality $|p_1^c+p_2^c+p_3^c?R|<{log}^{?1}N$ is solvable in primes $p_1,p_2,p_3$. Moreover, we also investigate the problem of six primes and prove that the Diophantine inequality $|p_1^c+p_2^c+p_3^c+p_4^c+p_5^c+p_6^c?N|<{log}^{?1}N$ is solvable in primes $p_1,p_2,p_3,p_4,p_5,p_6$ for sufficiently large real number $N$.     

Boundedness in a three-dimensional chemotaxis–haptotaxis model with nonlinear diffusion

The quasilinear chemotaxis–haptotaxis system

$\{\begin{array}{cc}{u}_t=\mathrm{?}?(D(u)\mathrm{?}u)?\chi \mathrm{?}?(u\mathrm{?}v)?\xi \mathrm{?}?(u\mathrm{?}w)\hfill & \hfill \\ \phantom{u_t=}+\mu u(1?u?w),\hfill & x\in \mathrm{\Omega },t>0,\hfill \\ v_t=\mathrm{\Delta }v?v+u,\hfill & x\in \mathrm{\Omega },t>0,\hfill \\ w_t=?vw,\hfill & x\in \mathrm{\Omega },t>0,\hfill \end{array}$

is considered under homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions in a bounded and smooth domain $\mathrm{\Omega }?{\mathbb{R}}^3$. Here $\chi >0$, $\xi >0$ and $\mu >0$, $D(u)\ge c_D{u}^{m?1}$ for all $u>0$ with some $c_D>0$ and $D(u)>0$ for all $u\ge 0$. It is shown that if the ratio $\frac{\chi }{\mu }$ is sufficiently small, then the system possesses a unique global classical solution that is uniformly bounded. Our result is independent of m.     

Stability for entire radial solutions to the biharmonic equation with negative exponents

In this note, we are interested in entire solutions to the semilinear biharmonic equation

${\mathrm{\Delta }}^{2}u=?u^{?p},u>0\text{in}{\mathbb{R}}^N,$

where $p>0$ and $N\ge 3$. In particular, the stability outside a compact set of the entire radial solutions will be completely studied, which resolves the remaining case in [5].     

Global existence and stabilization in a degenerate chemotaxis-Stokes system with mildly strong diffusion enhancement

A class of chemotaxis-Stokes systems generalizing the prototype

$\{\begin{array}{ccc}\hfill n_t+u?\mathrm{?}n& \hfill =\hfill & \mathrm{?}?\left(n^{m?1}\mathrm{?}n\right)?\mathrm{?}?\left(n\mathrm{?}c\right),\hfill \\ \hfill c_t+u?\mathrm{?}c& \hfill =\hfill & \mathrm{\Delta }c?nc,\hfill \\ \hfill u_t+\mathrm{?}P& \hfill =\hfill & \mathrm{\Delta }u+n\mathrm{?}?,\mathrm{?}?u=0,\hfill \end{array}$

is considered in bounded convex three-dimensional domains, where $?\in W^{2,\infty }(\mathrm{\Omega })$ is given.The paper develops an analytical approach which consists in a combination of energy-based arguments and maximal Sobolev regularity theory, and which allows for the construction of global bounded weak solutions to an associated initial-boundary value problem under the assumption that

(0.1)$m>\frac{9}{8}.$

Moreover, the obtained solutions are shown to approach the spatially homogeneous steady state $(\frac{1}{|\mathrm{\Omega }|}{\int }_{\mathrm{\Omega }}{n}_0,0,0)$ in the large time limit.This extends previous results which either relied on different and apparently less significant energy-type structures, or on completely alternative approaches, and thereby exclusively achieved comparable results under hypotheses stronger than (0.1).     

Global Calderón–Zygmund estimates for a class of nonlinear elliptic equations with Neumann data

In this paper we obtain the following global Calderón–Zygmund estimates

$B\left(\left|\mathbf{f}\right|\right)\in L^q(\mathrm{\Omega })?B\left(\left|\mathrm{?}u\right|\right)\in L^q(\mathrm{\Omega })\text{for any}q\ge 1$

in a convex domain Ω of the weak solution for a class of quasilinear elliptic equations with the Neumann data

$\begin{array}{ccc}\hfill \text{div}\left(a\left(\left|\mathrm{?}u\right|\right)\mathrm{?}u\right)& \hfill =\hfill & \text{div}\left(a\left(\left|\mathbf{f}\right|\right)\mathbf{f}\right)\text{in}\mathrm{\Omega },\hfill \\ \hfill a\left(\left|\mathrm{?}u\right|\right)\mathrm{?}u?\nu & \hfill =\hfill & a\left(\left|\mathbf{f}\right|\right)\mathbf{f}?\nu \text{on}?\mathrm{\Omega },\hfill \end{array}$

where $B(t)={\int }_0^t\tau a(\tau )d\tau$ for $t\ge 0$. Moreover, we remark that

$B(t)=t^p\log ?(1+t)$

satisfies the given conditions in this work.     

Existence of positive solution for a system of elliptic equations via bifurcation theory

In this paper we study the existence of solution for the following class of elliptic systems

(P)$\{\begin{array}{c}?\mathrm{\Delta }u=(a?{\int }_{\mathrm{\Omega }}K(x,y)f(u,v)dy)u+bv,\text{in}\mathrm{\Omega }\hfill \\ ?\mathrm{\Delta }v=(d?{\int }_{\mathrm{\Omega }}\mathrm{\Gamma }(x,y)g(u,v)dy)v+cu,\text{in}\mathrm{\Omega }\hfill \\ u=v=0,\text{on}?\mathrm{\Omega }\hfill \end{array}$

where $\mathrm{\Omega }?{\mathbb{R}}^N$ is a smooth bounded domain, $N\ge 1$, and $K,\mathrm{\Gamma }:\mathrm{\Omega }\times \mathrm{\Omega }\to \mathbb{R}$ are nonnegative functions satisfying some hypotheses and $a,b,c,d\in \mathbb{R}$. The functions f and g satisfy some conditions which permit to use Bifurcation Theory to prove the existence of solution for (P).
