Geometric aspects of the moduli space of Riemann surfaces

We describe some recent progress in the study of moduli space of Riemann surfaces in this survey paper. New complete Kahler metrics were introduced on the moduli space and Teichmuller space. Their curvature properties and asymptotic behavior were studied in details. These natural metrics served as bridges to connect all the known canonical metrics, especially the Kahler-Einstein metric. We showed that all the known complete metrics on the moduli space are equivalent and have Poincare type growth. Furthermore, the Kahler-Einstein metric has strongly bounded geometry. This also implied that the logarithm cotangent bundle of the moduli space is stable in the sense of Mumford.

The existence and stability of conic shock waves

We study the existence of the nonsymmetrical conic shock wave produced by a supersonic flow past a distorted conic projectile. For the weak conic shock wave, we establish the existence and its linear stability using the mathematical model of an isentropic irrotational flow.     

A smoothing conic trust region filter method for the nonlinear complementarity problem

This paper discusses nonlinear complementarity problems; its goal is to present a globally and superlinearly convergent algorithm for the discussed problems. Filter methods are extensively studied to handle nonlinear complementarity problem. Because of good numerical results, filter techniques are attached. By means of a filter strategy, we present a new trust region method based on a conic model for nonlinear complementarity problems. Under a proper condition, the superlinear convergence of the algorithm is established without the strict complementarity condition.     

关于R3上Cusp度量存在性的注记

Metric aspects of noncommutative homogeneous spaces

For a closed cocompact subgroup Γ of a locally compact group G, given a compact abelian subgroup K of G and a homomorphism satisfying certain conditions, Landstad and Raeburn constructed equivariant noncommutative deformations of the homogeneous space G/Γ, generalizing Rieffel's construction of quantum Heisenberg manifolds. We show that when G is a Lie group and G/Γ is connected, given any norm on the Lie algebra of G, the seminorm on induced by the derivation map of the canonical G-action defines a compact quantum metric. Furthermore, it is shown that this compact quantum metric space depends on ρ continuously, with respect to quantum Gromov-Hausdorff distances.

Cheeger Type Sobolev Spaces for Metric Space Targets

In this paper, we consider the natural generalization of Cheeger type Sobolev spaces to maps into a metric space. We solve Dirichlet problem for CAT(0)-space targets, and obtain some results about the relation between Cheeger type Sobolev spaces for maps into a Banach space and those for maps into a subset of that Banach space. We also prove the minimality of upper pointwise Lipschitz constant functions for locally Lipschitz maps into an Alexandrov space of curvature bounded above.     

Zeta regularized determinants for conic manifolds

We study (relative) zeta regularized determinants of Laplace type operators on compact conic manifolds. We establish gluing formulae for relative zeta regularized determinants. For arbitrary self-adjoint extensions of the Laplace-Beltrami operator, we express the relative ζ-determinants for these as a ratio of the determinants of certain finite matrices. For the self-adjoint extensions corresponding to Dirichlet and Neumann conditions, the formula is particularly simple and elegant.     

Theorems of the alternative for conic integer programming

Farkas’ Lemma is a foundational result in linear programming, with implications in duality, optimality conditions, and stochastic and bilevel programming. Its generalizations are known as theorems of the alternative. There exist theorems of the alternative for integer programming and conic programming. We present theorems of the alternative for conic integer programming. We provide a nested procedure to construct a function that characterizes feasibility over right-hand sides and can determine which statement in a theorem of the alternative holds.     

Joachimsthal surfaces inS 3

A representation of the Joachimsthal surfaces (having a family of curvature lines that lie in totally geodesic 2-spheres) in the sphereS ³ is obtained. It is proved that, if a surface of constant mean curvature inS ³ has one family of curvature lines lying in totally geodesic 2-spheres, then it is a surface of rotation.

Inverse conic programming with applications

Linear programming duality yields efficient algorithms for solving inverse linear programs. We show that special classes of conic programs admit a similar duality and, as a consequence, establish that the corresponding inverse programs are efficiently solvable. We discuss applications of inverse conic programming in portfolio optimization and utility function identification.     

Some Invariant Properties of Semi-symmetric Metric Recurrent Connections and Curvature Tensor Expressions

The projective transformation of the special semi-symmetric metric recurrent connection is studied in this paper. First of all, an invariant under this transformation is granted; Secondly, by inducing of the invariant and making use of the properties that the corresponding covariant derivative keeps being fixed under the distinctness connection, the curvature tensor expression of the Riemannian manifold is posed at the same time.     

Invariant smoothness measures for surfaces

Two novel smoothness measures for surfaces are presented in this paper. The second and third order smoothness are defined as the squared normal curvature and the squared variation in normal curvature integrated over all directions in the tangent plane. Both quantities are truly geometric in the sense that they are invariant with respect to the actual parametrization of the surface. All the same, all formulae are derived in terms of an arbitrary parametrization. In addition to providing a basis for variational surface construction, the second and third order smoothness can also be used for evaluation and assessment of the quality of an existing surface. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.

本文研究的是华罗庚域的特殊类型第二类Cartan-Hartogs域的不变Bergman度量与Kahler-Einstein度量的等价问题.引入一种与Bergman度量等价的新的完备的Kahler度量ωgλ,其Ricci曲率和全纯截取率具有负的上下界.然后应用丘成桐对Schwarz引理的推广证明ωgλ等价于Kahler-Einstein度量,从而得到了Bergman度量与Khhler-Einstein度量的等价,即丘成桐关于度量等价的猜想在第二类Cartan-Hartogs域上成立.     

An obstruction to the conformal compactification of Riemannian manifolds

In this paper, we study noncompact complete Riemannian -manifolds with which are not pointwise conformal to subdomains of any compact Riemannian -manifold. For this, we compare the Sobolev Quotient at infinity of a noncompact complete Riemannian manifold with that of the singular set in a compact Riemannian manifold using the method for the Yamabe problem.

     

Minimal conic quadratic reformulations and an optimization model

In this paper, we consider a particular form of inequalities which involves product of multiple variables with rational exponents. These inequalities can equivalently be represented by a number of conic quadratic forms called cone constraints. We propose an integer programming model and a heuristic algorithm to obtain the minimum number of cone constraints which equivalently represent the original inequality. The performance of the proposed algorithm and the computational effect of reformulations are numerically illustrated.
