Geodesic $\gamma$-Pre-$E$-Convex Functions on Riemannian Manifolds

In this paper, we generalize geodesic $E$-convex function and define geodesic $\gamma$-pre-$E$-convex and geodesic $\gamma$-$E$-convex functions on Riemannian manifolds. The sufficient condition of equivalence class of geodesic $\gamma$-pre-$E$-convexity and geodesic $\gamma$-$E$-convexity for differentiable function on Riemannian manifolds is studied. We discuss the sufficient condition for $E$-epigraph to be geodesic $E$-convex set. At the end, we establish some optimality results with the aid of geodesic $\gamma$-pre-$E$-convex and geodesic $\gamma$-$E$-convex functions and discuss the mean value inequality for geodesic $\gamma$-pre-$E$-convex function.     

On geometric structure of generalized projections in C~*-algebras

Let H be a Hilbert space and A ■ B(H) be a C~*-subalgebra. This paper is devoted to studying the set gP of generalized projections in A from a differential geometric point of view, and mainly focuses on geodesic curves. We prove that the space gP is a C~∞ Banach submanifold of A, and a homogeneous reductive space under the action of Banach Lie group U_A of A. Moreover, we compute the geodesics of gP in a standard fashion, and prove that any generalized projection in a prescribed neighbourhood of p∈gP can be joined with p by a unique geodesic curve in gP.     

Convergence of earthquake and horocycle paths to the boundary of Teichm¨uller space

We study the convergence of earthquake paths and horocycle paths in the Gardiner-Masur compactification of Teichm¨uller space. We show that an earthquake path directed by a uniquely ergodic or simple closed measured geodesic lamination converges to the Gardiner-Masur boundary. Using the embedding of flat metrics into the space of geodesic currents, we prove that a horocycle path in Teichm¨uller space, which is induced by a quadratic differential whose vertical measured foliation is uniquely ergodic, converges to the Gardiner-Masur boundary and to the Thurston boundary.     

A Review of the Index Method in Closed Geodesic Problem

In this paper we review and systematize the index method in closed geodesic problem.As we know,the closed geodesic problem on compact Riemannian or Finsler manifold is a famous problem,and has far from been resolved.In recent years,the Maslov-type index theory for symplectic path has been applied to studying the closed geodesic problem,and has induced a great number of results on the multiplicity and stability of closed geodesics.We will systematically introduce these progresses in this review.     

AN EXTENSION OF CLARIAUT EQUATION AND ITS APPLICATION

The geodesic in differential geometry is eornmonly used in computer-aided filament winding (CAFW) to avoid slippage in manufacturing process. The uniqueness of the geodesic byits initial values severely restricts the choice of the fiber path and is an obstacle to the production ofoptimized structures. This paper presents a new class of more flexible non-slip trajectories on revolutional surfaces as an extension of the well-known Clariaut equation and gives its application inCAFW.     

SURFACE FINITE ELEMENTS FOR

In this article we define a surface finite element method （SFEM） for the numerical solution of parabolic partial differential equations on hypersurfaces F in R^n＋1. The key idea is based on the approximation of F by a polyhedral surface Гh consisting of a union of simplices （triangles for n = 2, intervals for n = 1） with vertices on Г. A finite element space of functions is then defined by taking the continuous functions on Гh which are linear affine on each simplex of the polygonal surface. We use surface gradients to define weak forms of elliptic operators and naturally generate weak formulations of elliptic and parabolic equations on Г. Our finite element method is applied to weak forms of the equations. The computation of the mass and element stiffness matrices are simple and straightforward. We give an example of error bounds in the case of semi-discretization in space for a fourth order linear problem. Numerical experiments are described for several linear and nonlinear partial differential equations. In particular the power of the method is demorrstrated by employing it to solve highly nonlinear second and fourth order problems such as surface Allen-Cahn and Cahn-Hilliard equations and surface level set equations for geodesic mean curvature flow.     

Transformations and non-degenerate maps

We shall prove the equivalences of a non-degenerate circle-preserving map and a Mobius transformation in Rn, of a non-degenerate geodesic-preserving map and an isometry in Hn, of a non-degenerate line-preserving map and an affine transformation in Rn. That a map is non-degenerate means that the image of the whole space under the map is not a circle, or geodesic or line respectively. These results hold without either injective or surjective, or even continuous assumptions, which are new and of a fundamental nature in geometry.     

FOLIATION ON A SURFACE OF CONSTANT CURVATURE AND SOME NONLINEAR EVOLUTION EQUATIONS

In this paper,the author explains the solutions of Sine-Gordon equation and KdVequation as the geodesic curvature of the leaves of a foliation on a surface of constantcurvature and negative constant curvature respectively.Therefore,a question which wasasked in a paper of S.S.Chern and K.Tenenblat is answered.     

A MINIMIZING ALGORITHM FOR COMPLEX NONCONVEX NONDIFFERENTIABLE FUNCTIONS

The minimization of nonconvex, nondifferentiable functions that are compositions of max-type functions formed by nondifferentiable convex functions is discussed in this paper. It is closely related to practical engineering problems. By utilizing the globality of ε-subdifferential and the theory of quasidifferential, and by introducing a new scheme which selects several search directions and consider them simultaneously at each iteration, a minimizing algorithm is derived. It is simple in structure, implementable, numerically efficient and has global convergence. The shortcomings of the existing algorithms are thus overcome both in theory and in application.     

Shannon-type sampling for multivariate non-bandlimited signals

In this paper, starting from a function analytic in a neighborhood of the unit disk and based on Bessel functions, we construct a family of generalized multivariate sinc functions, which are radial and named radial Bessel-sinc (RBS) functions being time-frequency atoms with nonlinear phase. We obtain a recursive formula for the RBS functions in R d with d being odd. Based on the RBS function, a corresponding sampling theorem for a class of non-bandlimited signals is established. We investigate a class of radial functions and prove that each of these functions can be extended to become a monogenic function between two parallel planes, where the monogencity is taken to be of the Clifford analysis sense.     

A Numerical Calculation Algorithm of the Inclination Function Based on the Representation of SO(3) Group

In the determination of the Earth gravity field in satellite geodesy, the inclination functions represent the projection of data observed along the orbital plane of a satellite orbit into the sphere in the terrestial reference frame. The inclination functions in this work is studied from a group theoretical perspective. The inclination functions are proved to generate a representation of the SO(3) group. An orthogonal relation of the inclination functions is derived and some recurrence relations...     

Factorization of proper holomorphic maps on irreducible bounded symmetric domains of rank≥2

We obtain rigidity results on arbitrary proper holomorphic maps F from an irreducible bounded symmetric domain Ω of rank ≥2 into any complex space Z. After lifting to the normalization of the subvariety F (Ω) Z, we prove that F must be the canonical projection map to the quotient space of Ω by a finite group of automorphisms. The approach is along the line of the works of Mok and Tsai by considering radial limits of bounded holomorphic functions derived from F and proving that proper holomorphic maps between bounded symmetric domains preserve certain totally geodesic subdomains. In contrast to the previous works, in general we have to deal with multivalent holomorphic maps for which Fatou’s theorem cannot be applied directly. We bypass the difficulty by devising a limiting process for taking radial limits of correspondences arising from proper holomorphic maps and by elementary estimates allowing us to define distinct univalent branches of the underlying multivalent map on certain subsets. As a consequence of our rigidity result, with the exception of Type-IV domains, any proper holomorphic map f : Ω→ D of Ω onto a bounded convex domain D is necessarily a biholomorphism. In the exceptional case where Ω is a Type-IV domain, either f is a biholomorphism or it is a double cover branched over a totally geodesic submanifold which can be explicitly described.     

PERTURBATIONS OF DEFINITIZABLE OPERATORS IN A SPACE WITH AN INDEFINITE METRIC

Perturbations of definitizable operators in Krein space are studied in this paper. First, the convergence of resolvents and spectral functions is discussed if a sequence of definitizable operators converges in a general sense. Second, for the operational calculus relating to continuous functions, various convergences of operator functions are studied. At last, the relation for the convergence of the sequence of resolvents and that of one-parameter unitary groups is studied. The main theorems of this paper can be regarded as the generalization of the results for self-adjoint operators in Hilbert space,     

Error Bounds for Uniform Asymptotic Expansions—Modified Bessel Function of Purely Imaginary Order

The authors modify a method of Olde Daalhuis and Temme for representing the remainder and coefficients in Airy-type expansions of integrals.By using a class of rational functions,they express these quantities in terms of Cauchy-type integrals;these expressions are natural generalizations of integral representations of the coe？cients and the remainders in the Taylor expansions of analytic functions.By using the new representation,a computable error bound for the remainder in the uniform asymptotic expansion of the modified Bessel function of purely imaginary order is derived.

The geometry of Teichmller metric in an asymptotic Teichmller space is studied in this article. First, a binary infinitesimal form of Teichmller metric on AT(X) is proved.Then, the notion of angles between two geodesic curves in the asymptotic Teichmller space AT(X) is introduced. The existence of such angles is proved and the explicit formula is obtained. As an application, a sufficient condition for non-uniqueness geodesics in AT(X) is obtained.     

Mixed Elastico-Plasticity Problems with Partially Unknown Boundaries

In this paper,we study mixed elastico-plasticity problems in which part of the boundary is known,while the other part of the boundary is unknown and is a free boundary.Under certain conditions,this problemcan be transformed into a Riemann-Hilbert boundary value problem for analytic functions and a mixed boundaryvalue problem for complex equations.Using the theory of generalized analytic functions,the solvability of theproblem is discussed.

WEAK CONVERGENCE OF HENSTOCK INTEGRABLE SEQUENCES

Some relationships between pointwise and weak convergence of a sequence of Henstock integrable functions are studied, In particular it is provided an example of a sequence of Henstock integrable functions whose pointwise limit is different from the weak one. By introducing an asymptotic version of the Henstock equiintegrability notion it is given a necessary and sufficient condition in order that a pointwisely convergent sequence of Henstock integrable functions is weakly convergent to its pointwise limit.     

具有非局部源与加权非局部边界条件的拟线性抛物方程组

In this paper, we investigate the blow-up properties of a quasilinear reaction-diffusion system with nonlocal nonlinear sources and weighted nonlocal Dirichlet boundary conditions. The critical exponent is determined under various situations of the weight functions. It is observed that the boundary weight functions play an important role in determining the blow-up conditions. In addition, the blow-up rate estimate of non-global solutions for a class of weight functions is also obtained, which is found to be independent of nonlinear diffusion parameters m and n.
