Hodge decomposition theorem on strongly K(a)hler Finsler manifolds

Faran posed an open problem about analysis on complex Finsler spaces: Is there an analogue of the (θ)-Laplacian? Is there an analogue of Hodge theory? Under the assumption that (M, F) is a compact strongly K(a)hler Finsler manifold, we define a (θ)-Laplacian on the base manifold. Our result shows that the well-known Hodge decomposition theorem in K(a)hler manifolds is still true in the more general compact strongly K(a)hler Finsler manifolds.     

Hodge decomposition theorem on strongly K?hler Finsler manifolds

Faran posed an open problem about analysis on complex Finsler spaces: Is there an analogue of the -Laplacian? Is there an analogue of Hodge theory? Under the assumption that (M, F) is a compact strongly K?hler Finsler manifold, we define a -Laplacian on the base manifold. Our result shows that the well-known Hodge decomposition theorem in K?hler manifolds is still true in the more general compact strongly K?hler Finsler manifolds.

Horizontal -Laplacian on complex Finsler manifolds

A horizontal ■-Laplacian is defined on strongly pseudoconvex complex Finsler manifolds, first for functions and then for horizontal differential forms of type (p,q). The principal part of the (?)-Laplacian is computed in local coordinates. As an application, the (?)-Laplacian on strongly Kahler Finsler manifold is obtained explicitly in terms of the horizontal covariant derivatives of the Chern-Finsler conncetion.

The index growth and multiplicity of closed geodesics

In the recent paper [31] of Long and Duan (2009), we classified closed geodesics on Finsler manifolds into rational and irrational two families, and gave a complete understanding on the index growth properties of iterates of rational closed geodesics. This study yields that a rational closed geodesic cannot be the only closed geodesic on every irreversible or reversible (including Riemannian) Finsler sphere, and that there exist at least two distinct closed geodesics on every compact simply connected irreversible or reversible (including Riemannian) Finsler 3-dimensional manifold. In this paper, we study the index growth properties of irrational closed geodesics on Finsler manifolds. This study allows us to extend results in [31] of Long and Duan (2009) on rational, and in [12] of Duan and Long (2007), [39] of Rademacher (2010), and [40] of Rademacher (2008) on completely non-degenerate closed geodesics on spheres and CP² to every compact simply connected Finsler manifold. Then we prove the existence of at least two distinct closed geodesics on every compact simply connected irreversible or reversible (including Riemannian) Finsler 4-dimensional manifold.     

Szegö kernel, regular quantizations and spherical CR-structures

We compute the Szegö kernel of the unit circle bundle of a negative line bundle dual to a regular quantum line bundle over a compact Kähler manifold. As a corollary we provide an infinite family of smoothly bounded strictly pseudoconvex domains on complex manifolds (disk bundles over homogeneous Hodge manifolds) for which the log-terms in the Fefferman expansion of the Szegö kernel vanish and which are not locally CR-equivalent to the sphere. We also give a proof of the fact that, for homogeneous Hodge manifolds, the existence of a locally spherical CR-structure on the unit circle bundle alone implies that the manifold is biholomorphic to a projective space. Our results generalize those obtained by Engli? (Math Z 264(4):901–912, 2010) for Hermitian symmetric spaces of compact type.     

Bochner-Kodaira Techniques on K¨ahler Finsler Manifolds

A horizontal Hodge Laplacian operator $\square_{\mathcal {H}}$ is defined for Hermitian holomorphic vector bundles over PTM on K¨ahler Finsler manifold, and the expression of $\square_{\mathcal {H}}$ is obtained explicitly in terms of horizontal covariant derivatives of the Chern-Finsler connection. The vanishing theorem is obtained by using the $\partial_{\mathcal {H}}\ov{\partial}_{\mathcal {H}}$-method on K¨ahler Finsler manifolds.     

Existence and Liouville theorems for V -harmonic maps from complete manifolds

We establish existence and uniqueness theorems for V-harmonic maps from complete noncompact manifolds. This class of maps includes Hermitian harmonic maps, Weyl harmonic maps, affine harmonic maps, and Finsler harmonic maps from a Finsler manifold into a Riemannian manifold. We also obtain a Liouville type theorem for V-harmonic maps. In addition, we prove a V-Laplacian comparison theorem under the Bakry-Emery Ricci condition.     

Eigenvalue Comparison Theorems on Finsler Manifolds

Cheng-type inequality, Cheeger-type inequality and Faber-Krahn-type inequality are generalized to Finsler manifolds. For a compact Finsler manifold with the weighted Ricci curvature bounded from below by a negative constant, Li-Yau’s estimation of the first eigenvalue is also given.     

Finsler空间上的Weyl曲率

The Weyl curvature of a Finsler metric is investigated. This curvature constructed from Riemannain curvature. It is an important projective invariant of Finsler metrics. The author gives the necessary conditions on Weyl curvature for a Finsler metric to be Randers metric and presents examples of Randers metrics with non-scalar curvature. A global rigidity theorem for compact Finsler manifolds satisfying such conditions is proved. It is showed that for such a Finsler manifold,if Ricci scalar is negative,then Finsler metric is of Randers type.     

Multiple closed geodesics on 3-spheres

This paper is devoted to a study on closed geodesics on Finsler and Riemannian spheres. We call a prime closed geodesic on a Finsler manifold rational, if the basic normal form decomposition (cf. [Y. Long, Bott formula of the Maslov-type index theory, Pacific J. Math. 187 (1999) 113-149]) of its linearized Poincaré map contains no 2×2 rotation matrix with rotation angle which is an irrational multiple of π, or irrational otherwise. We prove that if there exists only one prime closed geodesic on a d-dimensional irreversible Finsler sphere with d?2, it cannot be rational. Then we further prove that there exist always at least two distinct prime closed geodesics on every irreversible Finsler 3-dimensional sphere. Our method yields also at least two geometrically distinct closed geodesics on every reversible Finsler as well as Riemannian 3-dimensional sphere. We prove also such results hold for all compact simply connected 3-dimensional manifolds with irreversible or reversible Finsler as well as Riemannian metrics.     

The first eigenfunctions and eigenvalue of the p-Laplacian on Finsler manifolds

This paper proves that the first eigenfunctions of the Finsler p-Lapalcian are C~(1,α). Using a gradient comparison theorem and one-dimensional model, we obtain the sharp lower bound of the first Neumann and closed eigenvalue of the p-Laplacian on a compact Finsler manifold with nonnegative weighted Ricci curvature,on which a lower bound of the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of the p-Laplacian is also obtained.     

Wu's theorem for Kähler–Finsler spaces

In this paper, we study strongly convex Kähler–Finsler manifolds. We prove two theorems: A strongly convex Kähler–Berwald manifold with a pole is a Stein manifold if it has nonpositive horizontal radial flag curvature; A strongly convex Kähler–Finsler manifold with a complex pole is a Stein manifold if it has nonpositive horizontal radial flag curvature.     

Strongly and weakly affine vector fields on Finsler manifolds

In this paper, we investigate the affine vector fields on both compact and forward complete Finsler manifolds. We first give definitions of the affine transformation and the affine vector field. Unexpectedly, we find two kinds of affine fields, which are named as the strongly and weakly affine vector fields. Based on these definitions, we prove some rigidity theorems of affine fields on compact and forward complete Finsler manifolds.     

Local Schrodinger flow into Kahler manifolds

In this paper we show that there exists a unique local smooth solution for the Cauchy problem of the Schrodinger flow for maps from a compact Riemannian manifold into a complete Kahler manifold, or from a Euclidean space Rm into a compact Kahler manifold. As a consequence, we prove that Heisenberg spin system is locally well-posed in the appropriate Sobolev spaces.     

On the Dynamics of Uniform Finsler Manifolds of Negative Flag Curvature

The geodesic flow of a compact Finsler manifold with negative flag curvature is an Anosov flow [23]. We use the structure of the stable and unstable foliation to equip the geodesic ray boundary of the universal covering with a Hölder structure. Gromov's geodesic rigidity and the Theorem of Dinaburg--Manning on the relation between the topological entropy and the volume entropy are generalized to the case of Finsler manifolds.     

On doubly warped product Finsler manifolds

In this paper, we introduce horizontal and vertical warped product Finsler manifolds. We prove that every C-reducible or proper Berwaldian doubly warped product Finsler manifold is Riemannian. Then, we find the relation between Riemannian curvatures of doubly warped product Finsler manifold and its components, and consider the cases that this manifold is flat or has scalar flag curvature. We define the doubly warped Sasaki-Matsumoto metric for warped product manifolds and find a condition under which the horizontal and vertical tangent bundles are totally geodesic. We obtain some conditions under which a foliated manifold reduces to a Reinhart manifold. Finally, we study an almost complex structure on the tangent bundle of a doubly warped product Finsler manifold.
