We study mappings on sub-Riemannian manifolds which are quasiregular with respect to the Carnot–Carathéodory distances and discuss several related notions. On H-type Carnot groups, quasiregular mappings have been introduced earlier using an analytic definition, but so far, a good working definition in the same spirit is not available in the setting of general sub-Riemannian manifolds. In the present paper we adopt therefore a metric rather than analytic viewpoint. As a first main result, we prove that the sub-Riemannian lens space admits nontrivial uniformly quasiregular (UQR) mappings, that is, quasiregular mappings with a uniform bound on the distortion of all the iterates. In doing so, we also obtain new examples of UQR maps on the standard sub-Riemannian spheres. The proof is based on a method for building conformal traps on sub-Riemannian spheres using quasiconformal flows, and an adaptation of this approach to quotients of spheres. One may then study the quasiregular semigroup generated by a UQR mapping. In the second part of the paper we follow Tukia to prove the existence of a measurable conformal structure which is invariant under such a semigroup. Here, the conformal structure is specified only on the horizontal distribution, and the pullback is defined using the Margulis–Mostow derivative (which generalizes the classical and Pansu derivatives). 相似文献

We describe a procedure for constructing ”polar coordinates” in a certain class of Carnot groups. We show that our construction
can be carried out in groups of Heisenberg type and we give explicit formulas for the polar coordinate decomposition in that
setting. The construction makes use of nonlinear potential theory, specifically, fundamental solutions for the p-sub-Laplace operators. As applications of this result we obtain exact capacity estimates, representation formulas and an
explicit sharp constant for the Moser-Trudinger inequality. We also obtain topological and measure-theoretic consequences
for quasiregular mappings.

In this article we consider contact mappings on Carnot groups. Namely, we are interested in those mappings whose differential
preserves the horizontal space, defined by the first stratum of the natural stratification of the Lie algebra of a Carnot
group. We give a sufficient condition for a Carnot group G to admit an infinite dimensional space of contact mappings, that
is, for G to be nonrigid. A generalization of Kirillov’s Lemma is also given. Moreover, we construct a new example of nonrigid
Carnot group.

In this article we study codimension 1 rectifiable sets in Carnot groups and we extend classical De Giorgi ’s rectifiability
and divergence theorems to the setting of step 2 groups. Related problems in higher step Carnot groups are discussed, pointing
on new phenomena related to the blow up procedure.

Regularity of minimizers of the calculus of variations in Carnot groups via hypoellipticity of systems of Hörmander type 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We prove the hypoellipticity for systems of H?rmander type with constant coefficients in Carnot groups of step 2. This result
is used to implement blow-up methods and prove partial regularity for local minimizers of non-convex functionals, and for
solutions of non-linear systems which appear in the study of non-isotropic metric structures with scalings. We also establish
estimates of the Hausdorff dimension of the singular set.

A uniformly quasiregular mapping, is a mapping of the m-sphere with the property that it and all its iterates have uniformly bounded distortion. Such maps are rational with respect to
some bounded measurable conformal structure and there is a Fatou-Julia type theory associated with the dynamical system obtained
by iterating these mappings. We begin by investigating the analogue of Siegel's theorem on the local conjuga cy of rotational
dynamics. We are led to consider the analytic continuation properties of solutions to the highly nonlinear first order Beltrami
systems. We reduce these problems to a central and well known conjecture in the theory of transformation groups; namely the
Hilbert-Smith conjecture, which roughly asserts that effective transformation groups of manifolds are Lie groups. Our affirmative
solution to this problem then implies unique analytic continuation and Siegel's theorem.

This paper studies the infinitesimal structure of Carnot manifolds. By a Carnot manifold we mean a manifold together with a subbundle filtration of its tangent bundle which is compatible with the Lie bracket of vector fields. We introduce a notion of differential, called Carnot differential, for Carnot manifolds maps (i.e., maps that are compatible with the Carnot manifold structure). This differential is obtained as a group map between the corresponding tangent groups. We prove that, at every point, a Carnot manifold map is osculated in a very precise way by its Carnot differential at the point. We also show that, in the case of maps between nilpotent graded groups, the Carnot differential is given by the Pansu derivative. Therefore, the Carnot differential is the natural generalization of the Pansu derivative to maps between general Carnot manifolds. Another main result is a construction of an analogue for Carnot manifolds of Connes' tangent groupoid. Given any Carnot manifold we get a smooth groupoid that encodes the smooth deformation of the pair to the tangent group bundle GM. This shows that, at every point, the tangent group is the tangent space in a true differential-geometric fashion. Moreover, the very fact that we have a groupoid accounts for the group structure of the tangent group. Incidentally, this answers a well-known question of Bellaïche [11]. 相似文献

In this paper, we use the deformation method andG-equivariant theory to prove the existence and multiplicity of harmonic maps from an annulus to the unit sphere inℝ

value isS

By applying the theory of quasiconformal maps in measure metric spaces that was introduced by Heinonen-Koskela, we characterize
bi-Lipschitz maps by modulus inequalities of rings and maximal, minimal derivatives in Q-regular Loewner spaces. Meanwhile the sufficient and necessary conditions for quasiconformal maps to become bi-Lipschitz
maps are also obtained. These results generalize Rohde’s theorem in ℝ

and improve Balogh’s corresponding results in Carnot groups.

According to a theorem of Martio, Rickman and Väisälä, all nonconstant Cn/(n-2)-smooth quasiregular maps in Rn, n≥3, are local homeomorphisms. Bonk and Heinonen proved that the order of smoothness is sharp in R3. We prove that the order of smoothness is sharp in R4. For each n≥5 we construct a C1+ε(n)-smooth quasiregular map in Rn with nonempty branch set. 相似文献

The Fatou-Julia iteration theory of rational functions has been extended to uniformly quasiregular mappings in higher dimension by various authors, and recently some results of Fatou-Julia type have also been obtained for non-uniformly quasiregular maps. The purpose of this paper is to extend the iteration theory of transcendental entire functions to the quasiregular setting. As no examples of uniformly quasiregular maps of transcendental type are known, we work without the assumption of uniform quasiregularity. Here the Julia set is defined as the set of all points such that the complement of the forward orbit of any neighbourhood has capacity zero. It is shown that for maps which are not of polynomial type, the Julia set is non-empty and has many properties of the classical Julia set of transcendental entire functions. 相似文献

We prove that h-convex functions on Carnot groups of step two are locally Lipschitz continuous with respect to any intrinsic
metric. We show that an additional measurability condition implies the local Lipschitz continuity of h-convex functions on
arbitrary Carnot groups.

It is known that each Markov chain has associated with it a polytope and a family of Markov measures indexed by the interior
points of the polytope. Measure-preserving factor maps between Markov chains must preserve the associated families. In the
present paper, we augment this structure by identifying measures corresponding to points on the boundary of the polytope.
These measures are also preserved by factor maps. We examine the data they provide and give examples to illustrate the use
of this data in ruling out the existence of factor maps between Markov chains.

We investigate a class of actions of real Lie groups on complex spaces. Using moment map techniques we establish the existence of a quotient and a version of Luna’s slice theorem as well as a version of the Hilbert–Mumford criterion. A global slice theorem is proved for proper actions. We give new proofs of results of Mostow on decompositions of groups and homogeneous spaces.First author partially supported by the Sonderforschungsbereich SFB/TR12 of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft and the DFG Schwerpunk program Globale Methoden in der komplexen Geometrie.Second author partially supported by NSA grant H98230–04–01–0070. 相似文献

The existence or the nonexistence of nonconstant stable equilibrium solutions for a diffusion equation with nonlinear Neumann boundary conditions is studied. We prove the nonexistence of nonconstant stable equilibria when the nonlinearity has a small Lipschitz constant or a second derivative of constant sign or either when the domain is a ball. We construct an example of existence for a connected domain with several disconnected boundary components.This work is partially supported by the project PB91-0497-C02-02 of the DGICYT (Spain). 相似文献

We investigate the recently introduced notion of rotation numbers for periodic orbits of interval maps. We identify twist
orbits, that is those orbits that are the simplest ones with given rotation number. We estimate from below the topological
entropy of a map having an orbit with given rotation number. Our estimates are sharp: there are unimodal maps where the equality
holds. We also discuss what happens for maps with larger modality. In the Appendix we present a new approach to the problem
of monotonicity of entropy in one-parameter families of unimodal maps.

We show that a compact complex manifold is Moishezon if and only if it carries a strictly positive, integral (1, 1)-current.
We then study holomorphic line bundles carrying singular hermitian metrics with semi-positive curvature currents, and we give
some cases in which these line bundles are big. We use these cases to provide sufficient conditions for a compact complex
manifold to be Moishezon in terms of the existence of certain semi-positive, integral (1,1)-currents. We also show that the
intersection number of two closed semi-positive currents of complementary degrees on a compact complex manifold is positive
when the intersection of their singular supports is contained in a Stein domain.

A type of partially ordered structures called incidence-polytopes generalizes the notion of polyhedra in a combinatorial sense. The concept includes all regular polytopes as well as many well-known configurations. We use hyperbolic geometry to derive certain types of incidence-polytopes whose cells are isomorphic to maps of type {4, 4}, {6, 3}, or {3, 6} on a torus. For these structures we give a criterion on the finiteness in terms of groups of 2 × 2 matrices, leading among other things to the explicit recognition of the groups in some interesting special cases.Dedicated to H.

We consider sets of locally finite perimeter in Carnot groups. We show that if E is a set of locally finite perimeter in a Carnot group G then, for almost every x∈G with respect to the perimeter measure of E, some tangent of E at x is a vertical halfspace. This is a partial extension of a theorem of Franchi-Serapioni-Serra Cassano in step 2 Carnot groups:
they show in Math. Ann. 321, 479–531, 2001 and J. Geom. Anal. 13, 421–466, 2003 that, for almost every x, E has a unique tangent at x, and this tangent is a vertical halfspace.

We use porosity to study differentiability of Lipschitz maps on Carnot groups. Our first result states that directional derivatives of a Lipschitz function act linearly outside a \(\sigma \)-porous set. The second result states that irregular points of a Lipschitz function form a \(\sigma \)-porous set. We use these observations to give a new proof of Pansu’s theorem for Lipschitz maps from a general Carnot group to a Euclidean space. 相似文献
