Disintegration of positive isometric group representations on $$\varvec{\mathrm {L}^{p}}$$-spaces

Let G be a Polish locally compact group acting on a Polish space \({{X}}\) with a G-invariant probability measure \(\mu \). We factorize the integral with respect to \(\mu \) in terms of the integrals with respect to the ergodic measures on X, and show that \(\mathrm {L}^{p}({{X}},\mu )\) (\(1\le p<\infty \)) is G-equivariantly isometrically lattice isomorphic to an \({\mathrm {L}^p}\)-direct integral of the spaces \(\mathrm {L}^{p}({{X}},\lambda )\), where \(\lambda \) ranges over the ergodic measures on X. This yields a disintegration of the canonical representation of G as isometric lattice automorphisms of \(\mathrm {L}^{p}({{X}},\mu )\) as an \({\mathrm {L}^p}\)-direct integral of order indecomposable representations. If \(({{X}}^\prime ,\mu ^\prime )\) is a probability space, and, for some \(1\le q<\infty \), G acts in a strongly continuous manner on \(\mathrm {L}^{q}({{X}}^\prime ,\mu ^\prime )\) as isometric lattice automorphisms that leave the constants fixed, then G acts on \(\mathrm {L}^{p}({{X}}^{\prime },\mu ^{\prime })\) in a similar fashion for all \(1\le p<\infty \). Moreover, there exists an alternative model in which these representations originate from a continuous action of G on a compact Hausdorff space. If \(({{X}}^\prime ,\mu ^\prime )\) is separable, the representation of G on \(\mathrm {L}^p(X^\prime ,\mu ^\prime )\) can then be disintegrated into order indecomposable representations. The notions of \({\mathrm {L}^p}\)-direct integrals of Banach spaces and representations that are developed extend those in the literature.     

Hypersurfaces in nearly Kaehler manifold $$\pmb {\mathbb {S}}^{\varvec{3}}\varvec{\times } \pmb {\mathbb {S}}^{\varvec{3}}$$

In this paper, we initiate the study of contact and minimal hypersurfaces in nearly Kaehler manifold \({\mathbb {S}}^3\times {\mathbb {S}}^3\) with a conformal vector field. There are three almost contact metric structures on a hypersurface of \({\mathbb {S}}^3\times {\mathbb {S}}^3\), and we will give some important properties of them. Besides, we study the influence of the conformal vector field on the almost contact metric structures and use it to characterize the hypersurfaces in \({\mathbb {S}}^3\times {\mathbb {S}}^3\).     

Magnetic Trajectories in an Almost Contact Metric Manifold $${\mathbb{R}^{2N+1}}$$

In this paper we classify magnetic trajectories γ in \({{\mathbb{R}}^{2N+1}}\) endowed with a canonical quasi-Sasakian structure, corresponding to a magnetic field proportional to the fundamental 2-form. We prove that they are helices of order 5 and we show that there exists a totally geodesic \({{\mathbb{R}}^5}\) in \({\mathbb{R}^{2N+1}}\) such that γ lies in \({{\mathbb{R}}^5}\). Moreover, the quasi-Sasakian structure of \({{\mathbb{R}}^5}\) is that induced from the ambient manifold.     

Lagrangian isotopy of tori in $${S^2\times S^2}$$ and $${{\mathbb{C}}P^2}$$CP2

We show that, up to Lagrangian isotopy, there is a unique Lagrangian torus inside each of the following uniruled symplectic four-manifolds: the symplectic vector space \({{\mathbb{R}}^4}\), the projective plane \({{\mathbb{C}}P^2}\), and the monotone \({S^2 \times S^2}\). The result is proven by studying pseudoholomorphic foliations while performing the splitting construction from symplectic field theory along the Lagrangian torus. A number of other related results are also shown. Notably, the nearby Lagrangian conjecture is established for \({T^*{\mathbb{T}}^2}\), i.e. it is shown that every closed exact Lagrangian submanifold in this cotangent bundle is Hamiltonian isotopic to the zero-section.     

On the classification of 4-dimensional $$(m,\rho )$$-quasi-Einstein manifolds with harmonic Weyl curvature

In this paper we study four-dimensional \((m,\rho )\)-quasi-Einstein manifolds with harmonic Weyl curvature when \(m\notin \{0,\pm 1,-2,\pm \infty \}\) and \(\rho \notin \{\frac{1}{4},\frac{1}{6}\}\). We prove that a non-trivial \((m,\rho )\)-quasi-Einstein metric g (not necessarily complete) is locally isometric to one of the following: (i) \({\mathcal {B}}^2_\frac{R}{2(m+2)}\times {\mathbb {N}}^2_\frac{R(m+1)}{2(m+2)}\), where \({\mathcal {B}}^2_\frac{R}{2(m+2)}\) is the northern hemisphere in the two-dimensional (2D) sphere \({\mathbb {S}}^2_\frac{R}{2(m+2)}\), \({\mathbb {N}}_\delta \) is a 2D Riemannian manifold with constant curvature \(\delta \), and R is the constant scalar curvature of g. (ii) \({\mathcal {D}}^2_\frac{R}{2(m+2)}\times {\mathbb {N}}^2_\frac{R(m+1)}{2(m+2)}\), where \({\mathcal {D}}^2_\frac{R}{2(m+2)}\) is half (cut by a hyperbolic line) of hyperbolic plane \({\mathbb {H}}^2_\frac{R}{2(m+2)}\). (iii) \({\mathbb {H}}^2_\frac{R}{2(m+2)}\times {\mathbb {N}}^2_\frac{R(m+1)}{2(m+2)}\). (iv) A certain singular metric with \(\rho =0\). (v) A locally conformal flat metric. By applying this local classification, we obtain a classification of the complete \((m,\rho )\)-quasi-Einstein manifolds given the condition of a harmonic Weyl curvature. Our result can be viewed as a local classification of gradient Einstein-type manifolds. A corollary of our result is the classification of \((\lambda ,4+m)\)-Einstein manifolds, which can be viewed as (m, 0)-quasi-Einstein manifolds.     

Some Characterizations of Integral Operators Associated with Certain Classes of <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-Valent Functions Defined by the Srivastava–Saigo–Owa Fractional Differintegral Operator

The purpose of this paper is to introduce new integral operators associated with Srivastava–Saigo–Owa fractional differintegral operator. We investigate some properties for the integral operators \({\mathcal {F}}_{p,\eta ,\mu }^{\lambda ,\delta }(z)\) and \({\mathcal {G}}_{p,\eta ,\mu }^{\lambda ,\delta }(z)\) to be in the classes \({\mathcal {R}}_{k}^{\zeta }\left( p,\rho \right) \) and \({\mathcal {V}}_{k}^{\zeta }\left( p,\rho \right) \).     

Conformally Covariant Differential Operators for the Diagonal Action of $$O(p,\,q)$$ on Real Quadrics

Let \(X=G/P\) be a real projective quadric, where \(G=O(p,\,q)\) and P is a parabolic subgroup of G. Let \((\pi _{\lambda ,\epsilon },\, \mathcal H_{\lambda ,\epsilon })_{ (\lambda ,\epsilon )\in {\mathbb {C}}\times \{\pm \}}\) be the family of (smooth) representations of G induced from the characters of P. For \((\lambda ,\, \epsilon ),\, (\mu ,\, \eta )\in {\mathbb {C}}\times \{\pm \},\) a differential operator \(\mathbf D_{(\mu ,\eta )}^\mathrm{reg}\) on \(X\times X,\) acting G-covariantly from \({\mathcal {H}}_{\lambda ,\epsilon } \otimes {\mathcal {H}}_{\mu , \eta }\) into \({\mathcal {H}}_{\lambda +1,-\epsilon } \otimes {\mathcal {H}}_{\mu +1, -\eta }\) is constructed.     

On homogeneous hypersurfaces in $${\mathbb {C}}^3$$

We consider a family \(M_t^n\), with \(n\geqslant 2\), \(t>1\), of real hypersurfaces in a complex affine n-dimensional quadric arising in connection with the classification of homogeneous compact simply connected real-analytic hypersurfaces in  \({\mathbb {C}}^n\) due to Morimoto and Nagano. To finalize their classification, one needs to resolve the problem of the embeddability of \(M_t^n\) in  \({\mathbb {C}}^n\) for \(n=3,7\). In our earlier article we showed that \(M_t^7\) is not embeddable in  \({\mathbb {C}}^7\) for every t and that \(M_t^3\) is embeddable in  \({\mathbb {C}}^3\) for all \(1<t<1+10^{-6}\). In the present paper, we improve on the latter result by showing that the embeddability of \(M_t^3\) in fact takes place for \(1<t<\sqrt{(2+\sqrt{2})/3}\). This is achieved by analyzing the explicit totally real embedding of the sphere \(S^3\) in \({\mathbb {C}}^3\) constructed by Ahern and Rudin. For \(t\geqslant {\sqrt{(2+\sqrt{2})/3}}\), the problem of the embeddability of \(M_t^3\) remains open.     

Extremal Problems for Mappings with Generalized Parametric Representation in $${{\mathbb {C}}}^{n}$$

In this paper we are concerned with the family \(\widetilde{S}^t_A(\mathbb {B}^n)\) (\(t\ge 0\)) of normalized biholomorphic mappings on the Euclidean unit ball \(\mathbb {B}^n\) in \({\mathbb {C}}^n\) that can be embedded in normal Loewner chains whose normalizations are given by time-dependent operators \(A\in \widetilde{\mathcal {A}}\), where \(\widetilde{\mathcal {A}}\) is a family of measurable mappings from \([0,\infty )\) into \(L({\mathbb {C}}^n)\) which satisfy certain natural assumptions. In particular, we consider extreme points and support points associated with the compact family \(\widetilde{S}^t_A(\mathbb {B}^n)\), where \(A\in \widetilde{\mathcal {A}}\). We prove that if \(f(z,t)=V(t)^{-1}z+\cdots \) is a normal Loewner chain such that \(V(s)f(\cdot ,s)\in \mathrm{ex}\,\widetilde{S}^s_A(\mathbb {B}^n)\) (resp. \(V(s)f(\cdot ,s)\in \mathrm{supp}\,\widetilde{S}^s_A(\mathbb {B}^n)\)), then \(V(t)f(\cdot ,t)\in \mathrm{ex}\, \widetilde{S}^t_A(\mathbb {B}^n)\), for all \(t\ge s\) (resp. \(V(t)f(\cdot ,t)\in \mathrm{supp}\,\widetilde{S}^t_A(\mathbb {B}^n)\), for all \(t\ge s\)), where V(t) is the unique solution on \([0,\infty )\) of the initial value problem: \(\frac{d V}{d t}(t)=-A(t)V(t)\), a.e. \(t\ge 0\), \(V(0)=I_n\). Also, we obtain an example of a bounded support point for the family \(\widetilde{S}_A^t(\mathbb {B}^2)\), where \(A\in \widetilde{\mathcal {A}}\) is a certain time-dependent operator. We also consider the notion of a reachable family with respect to time-dependent linear operators \(A\in \widetilde{\mathcal {A}}\), and obtain characterizations of extreme/support points associated with these families of bounded biholomorphic mappings on \(\mathbb {B}^n\). Useful examples and applications yield that the study of the family \(\widetilde{S}^t_A(\mathbb {B}^n)\) for time-dependent operators \(A\in \widetilde{\mathcal {A}}\) is basically different from that in the case of constant time-dependent linear operators.     

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 \({\mathbb {S}^2\setminus\{p_1,\ldots,p_k\}, k\geq3.}\)     

Surfaces in $$\mathbb {R}^7$$ obtained from harmonic maps in $$S^6$$S6.

We will investigate the local geometry of the surfaces in the 7-dimensional Euclidean space associated to harmonic maps from a Riemann surface \(\varSigma \) into \(S^6\). By applying methods based on the use of harmonic sequences, we will characterize the conformal harmonic immersions \(\varphi :\varSigma \rightarrow S^6\) whose associated immersions \(F:\varSigma \rightarrow \mathbb {R}^7\) belong to certain remarkable classes of surfaces, namely: minimal surfaces in hyperspheres; surfaces with parallel mean curvature vector field; pseudo-umbilical surfaces; isotropic surfaces.     

Non-harmonic Cones are Heisenberg Uniqueness Pairs for the Fourier Transform on $${\mathbb {R}}^n$$

In this article, we prove that a cone is a Heisenberg uniqueness pair corresponding to sphere as long as the cone does not completely recline on the level surface of any homogeneous harmonic polynomial on \({\mathbb {R}}^n\). We derive that \(\left( S^2, \text { paraboloid}\right) \) and \(\left( S^2, \text { geodesic of } S_r(o)\right) \) are Heisenberg uniqueness pairs for a class of certain symmetric finite Borel measures in \({\mathbb {R}}^3\). Further, we correlate the problem of Heisenberg uniqueness pairs to the sets of injectivity for the spherical mean operator.     

Heat Kernel Empirical Laws on $${\mathbb {U}}_N$$ and $${\mathbb {GL}}_N$$GLN

This paper studies the empirical laws of eigenvalues and singular values for random matrices drawn from the heat kernel measures on the unitary groups \({\mathbb {U}}_N\) and the general linear groups \({\mathbb {GL}}_N\), for \(N\in {\mathbb {N}}\). It establishes the strongest known convergence results for the empirical eigenvalues in the \({\mathbb {U}}_N\) case, and the first known almost sure convergence results for the eigenvalues and singular values in the \({\mathbb {GL}}_N\) case. The limit noncommutative distribution associated with the heat kernel measure on \({\mathbb {GL}}_N\) is identified as the projection of a flow on an infinite-dimensional polynomial space. These results are then strengthened from variance estimates to \(L^p\) estimates for even integers p.     

Distances between classes in $$W^{1,1}(\Omega ;{\mathbb {S}}^{1})$$

We introduce an equivalence relation on the space \(W^{1,1}(\Omega ;{\mathbb {S}}^1)\) which classifies maps according to their “topological singularities”. We establish sharp bounds for the distances (in the usual sense and in the Hausdorff sense) between the equivalence classes. Similar questions are examined for the space \(W^{1,p}(\Omega ;{\mathbb {S}}^1)\) when \(p>1\).     

Classification of minimal mass blow-up solutions for an $${L^{2}}$$ critical inhomogeneous NLS

We establish the classification of minimal mass blow-up solutions of the \({L^{2}}\) critical inhomogeneous nonlinear Schrödinger equation

$$i\partial_t u + \Delta u + |x|^{-b}|u|^{\frac{4-2b}{N}}u = 0,$$

thereby extending the celebrated result of Merle (Duke Math J 69(2):427–454, 1993) from the classic case \({b=0}\) to the case \({0< b< {\rm min} \{2,N\} }\), in any dimension \({N \geqslant 1}\).

     

A Sharp Weak-Type $$(\infty ,\infty )$$ Inequality for the Hilbert Transform

The paper is devoted to sharp weak type \((\infty ,\infty )\) estimates for \({\mathcal {H}}^{\mathbb {T}}\) and \({\mathcal {H}}^{\mathbb {R}}\), the Hilbert transforms on the circle and real line, respectively. Specifically, it is proved that

$$\begin{aligned} \left\| {\mathcal {H}}^{\mathbb {T}}f\right\| _{W({\mathbb {T}})}\le \Vert f\Vert _{L^\infty ({\mathbb {T}})} \end{aligned}$$

and

$$\begin{aligned} \left\| {\mathcal {H}}^{\mathbb {R}}f\right\| _{W({\mathbb {R}})}\le \Vert f\Vert _{L^\infty ({\mathbb {R}})}, \end{aligned}$$

where \(W({\mathbb {T}})\) and \(W({\mathbb {R}})\) stand for the weak-\(L^\infty \) spaces introduced by Bennett, DeVore and Sharpley. In both estimates, the constant \(1\) on the right is shown to be the best possible.

     

Harmonic Analysis on the Möbius Gyrogroup

In this paper we propose to develop harmonic analysis on the Poincaré ball \({{\mathbb {B}}_{t}^{n}}\), a model of the \(n\)-dimensional real hyperbolic space. The Poincaré ball \({{\mathbb {B}}_{t}^{n}}\) is the open ball of the Euclidean \(n\)-space \(\mathbb {R}^n\) with radius \(t >0\), centered at the origin of \(\mathbb {R}^n\) and equipped with Möbius addition, thus forming a Möbius gyrogroup where Möbius addition in the ball plays the role of vector addition in \(\mathbb {R}^n.\) For any \(t>0\) and an arbitrary parameter \(\sigma \in \mathbb {R}\) we study the \((\sigma ,t)\)-translation, the \((\sigma ,t)\)-convolution, the eigenfunctions of the \((\sigma ,t)\)-Laplace–Beltrami operator, the \((\sigma ,t)\)-Helgason Fourier transform, its inverse transform and the associated Plancherel’s Theorem, which represent counterparts of standard tools, thus, enabling an effective theory of hyperbolic harmonic analysis. Moreover, when \(t \rightarrow +\infty \) the resulting hyperbolic harmonic analysis on \({{\mathbb {B}}_{t}^{n}}\) tends to the standard Euclidean harmonic analysis on \(\mathbb {R}^n,\) thus unifying hyperbolic and Euclidean harmonic analysis. As an application we construct diffusive wavelets on \({{\mathbb {B}}_{t}^{n}}\).     

Local uniqueness and periodicity for the prescribed scalar curvature problem of fractional operator in $${\mathbb {R}}^{N}$$

Consider the following prescribed scalar curvature problem involving the fractional Laplacian with critical exponent:

$$\begin{aligned} \left\{ \begin{array}{ll}(-\Delta )^{\sigma }u=K(y)u^{\frac{N+2\sigma }{N-2\sigma }} \text { in }~ {\mathbb {R}}^{N},\\ ~u>0, \quad y\in {\mathbb {R}}^{N}.\end{array}\right. \end{aligned}$$

(0.1)

For \(N\ge 4\) and \(\sigma \in (\frac{1}{2}, 1),\) we prove a local uniqueness result for bubbling solutions of (0.1). Such a result implies that some bubbling solutions preserve the symmetry from the scalar curvature K(y).

     

The $${\square_{b}}$$ heat equation and multipliers via the wave equation

Recently, Nagel and Stein studied the \({\square_{b}}\) -heat equation, where \({\square_{b}}\) is the Kohn Laplacian on the boundary of a weakly pseudoconvex domain of finite type in \({\mathbb{C}^2}\) . They showed that the Schwartz kernel of \({e^{-t\square_{b}}}\) satisfies good “off-diagonal” estimates, while that of \({e^{-t\square_{b}}-\pi}\) satisfies good “on-diagonal” estimates, where π denotes the Szegö projection. We offer a simple proof of these results, which easily generalizes to other, similar situations. Our methods involve adapting the well-known relationship between the heat equation and the finite propagation speed of the wave equation to this situation. In addition, we apply these methods to study multipliers of the form \({m(\square_{b})}\) . In particular, we show that \({m(\square_{b})}\) is an NIS operator, where m satisfies an appropriate Mihlin–Hörmander condition.     

Principal Eigenvalue for the Random Walk among Random Traps on ${\mathbb{Z}}^{\bf {\it d}}$

Let \((\tau_x)_{x \in {\mathbb{Z}}^d}\) be i.i.d. random variables with heavy (polynomial) tails. Given a?∈?[0,1], we consider the Markov process defined by the jump rates \(\omega_{x \to y} = {\tau_x}^{-(1-a)} {\tau_y}^a\) between two neighbours x and y in \({{\mathbb{Z}}^d}\). We give the asymptotic behaviour of the principal eigenvalue of the generator of this process, with Dirichlet boundary condition. The prominent feature is a phase transition that occurs at some threshold depending on the dimension.
