SHORT COMMUNICATION SECTION Some Geometric Flows on Kahler Manifolds

We define a kind of KdV （Korteweg-de Vries） geometric flow for maps from a real line or a circle into a Kahler manifold （N,J,h） with complex structure J and metric h as the generalization of the vortex filament dynamics from a real line or a circle. By using the geometric analysis, the existence of the Cauchy problems of the KdV geometric flows will be investigated in this note.     

The Roper-Suffridge extension operator and classes of biholomorphic mappings Dedicated to Professor Sheng GONG on the occasion of his 75th birthday

In this paper we give a survey about the Roper-Suffridge extension operator and the developments in the theory of univalent mappings in several variables to which it has led. We begin with the basic geometric properties (most of which now have a number of different proofs) and discuss relations with the theory of Loewner chains and generalizations and modifications of the operator, some of which are very recent.     

Geometry of Ricci Solitons

Ricci solitons are natural generalizations of Einstein metrics on one hand, and are special solutions of the Ricci flow of Hamilton on the other hand. In this paper we survey some of the recent developments on Ricci solitons and the role they play in the singularity study of the Ricci flow.     

Harmonic L~p-functions on Complete Riemannian Manifolds

This survey paper concerns some existence theorems of harmonic functions belonging to LP (M), M being a complete Riemannian manifold. It is well known that a function which is analytic and bounded on the whole complex plane must reduce to a constant.This classical result, known as Liouville's theorem, is also true on a higher-dimensional Euclidean spaces. The generalization of this theorem to other Riemannian manifolds is very interesting. Besides its beauty, the proof usally requires sharp estimates which provide deeper understanding of the Laplacian and hence give broad applications to problems in global analysis.The basic problem in this paper is to study how the geometric conditions of a complete Riemannian manifold affect the validity of the Liouville theorem. The paper consists of two parts. Part I describes the results systematically and Part I will be more technical and will contain the detailed proofs of the results given in the first part.     

Geometric Schrdinger-Airy Flows on Khler Manifolds

We define a class of geometric flows on a complete Khler manifold to unify some physical and mechanical models such as the motion equations of vortex filament, complex-valued mKdV equations, derivative nonlinear Schrdinger equations etc. Furthermore, we consider the existence for these flows from S~1into a complete Khler manifold and prove some local and global existence results.     

W-entropy formulas on super Ricci flows and Langevin deformation on Wasserstein space over Riemannian manifolds Dedicated to Professor Zhiming Ma on His Seventieth Birthday

In this survey paper, we give an overview of our recent works on the study of the W-entropy for the heat equation associated with the Witten Laplacian on super-Ricci flows and the Langevin deformation on the Wasserstein space over Riemannian manifolds. Inspired by Perelman's seminal work on the entropy formula for the Ricci flow, we prove the W-entropy formula for the heat equation associated with the Witten Laplacian on n-dimensional complete Riemannian manifolds with the CD(K, m)-condition, and the W-entropy formula for the heat equation associated with the time-dependent Witten Laplacian on n-dimensional compact manifolds equipped with a(K, m)-super Ricci flow, where K ∈ R and m ∈ [n, ∞]. Furthermore, we prove an analogue of the W-entropy formula for the geodesic flow on the Wasserstein space over Riemannian manifolds.Our result improves an important result due to Lott and Villani(2009) on the displacement convexity of the Boltzmann-Shannon entropy on Riemannian manifolds with non-negative Ricci curvature. To better understand the similarity between above two W-entropy formulas, we introduce the Langevin deformation of geometric flows on the tangent bundle over the Wasserstein space and prove an extension of the W-entropy formula for the Langevin deformation. We also make a discussion on the W-entropy for the Ricci flow from the point of view of statistical mechanics and probability theory. Finally, to make this survey more helpful for the further development of the study of the W-entropy, we give a list of problems and comments on possible progresses for future study on the topic discussed in this survey.     

GENERALIZATIONS OF THE SUZUKI AND KANNAN FIXED POINT THEOREMS IN G-CONE METRIC SPACES

In this paper we develop the Banach contraction principle and Kannan fixed point theorem on generalized cone metric spaces.We prove a version of Suzuki and Kannan type generalizations of fixed point theorems in generalized cone metric spaces.     

Biholomorphic Mappings and the Extension Operators on New Hartogs Domains

In this paper, we generalize the Roper–Suffridge operator on the extended Hartogs domains.By using the geometric properties and the growth theorems of subclasses of biholomorphic mappings,we obtain the generalized operators preserve the properties of parabolic and spirallike mappings of type β and order ρ, S*_Ω(β, A, B), almost starlike mapping of complex order λ on ΩN under different conditions, and thus we get the corresponding results on the unit ball B~n in C~n. The conclusions lead to some known results.     

$E^3$中的一类Weingarten曲面

In this paper, we construct a kind of Weingarten surfaces in E3 and study its geometric properties. We first derive an explicit diffierential relationship between the principal curvatures of them. Then we prove an existence theorem of this kind of surfaces with prescribed principal curvatures. At last, we present two examples involving the rotation surfaces as the special case, and present several figures to the second example.     

On spinors

For a 2^n-dimensional complex Hermitian vector space S, we prove that any unitary basis of S can be explained as an augmented spinor structure on S. By using this explanation, a SpinC（2n）- action on S is equivalent to an action on a subset of augmented spinor structures. The latter action is a little easy to be understood, and is shown in the last part of this paper. Such kind of understanding could be of use to the discussions of Hermitian manifolds and spin manifolds, especially could help to find connections and elliptical operators.     

A Scheme for Generating Nonisospectral Integrable Hierarchies and Its Related Applications

Under the framework of the complex column-vector loop algebra ■~p,we propose a scheme for generating nonisospectral integrable hierarchies of evolution equations which generalizes the applicable scope of the Tu scheme.As applications of the scheme,we work out a nonisospectral integrable Schrodinger hierarchy and its expanding integrable model.The latter can be reduced to some nonisospectral generalized integrable Schrodinger systems,including the derivative nonlinear Schrodinger equation once obtained by Kaup and Newell.Specially,we obtain the famous Fokker-Plank equation and its generalized form,which has extensive applications in the stochastic dynamic systems.Finally,we investigate the Lie group symmetries,fundamental solutions and group-invariant solutions as well as the representation of the tensor of the Heisenberg group H_3 and the matrix linear group SL(2,R)for the generalized Fokker-Plank equation(GFPE).

Flows associated to Cameron-Martin type vector fields on path spaces over a Riemannian manifold

The flow on the Wiener space associated to a tangent process constructed by Cipriano and Cruzeiro, as well as by Gong and Zhang does not allow to recover Driver’s Cameron-Martin theorem on Riemannian path space. The purpose of this work is to refine the method of the modified Picard iteration used in the previous work by Gong and Zhang and to try to recapture and extend the result of Driver. In this paper, we establish the existence and uniqueness of a flow associated to a Cameron-Martin type vector field on the path space over a Riemannian manifold.     

Advances in Studies and Applications of Centroidal Voronoi Tessellations

<正>Centroidal Voronoi tessellations(CVTs) have become a useful tool in many applications ranging from geometric modeling,image and data analysis,and numerical partial differential equations,to problems in physics,astrophysics,chemistry,and biology. In this paper,we briefly review the CVT concept and a few of its generalizations and well-known properties.We then present an overview of recent advances in both mathematical and computational studies and in practical applications of CVTs.Whenever possible,we point out some outstanding issues that still need investigating.     

Some Penrose transforms in complex differential geometry Dedicated to Professor Sheng GONG on the occasion of his 75th birthday

In this article, we review a construction in the complex geometry often known as the Penrose transform. We then present two new applications of this transform. One concerns the construction of symmetries of the massless field equations from mathematical physics. The other concerns obstructions to the embedding of CR structures on the three-sphere.     

Supersonic flow onto solid wedges,multidimensional shock waves and free boundary problems Dedicated to Professor LI Ta Tsien on the Occasion of His 80th Birthday

When an upstream steady uniform supersonic flow impinges onto a symmetric straight-sided wedge,governed by the Euler equations,there are two possible steady oblique shock configurations if the wedge angle is less than the detachment angle—the steady weak shock with supersonic or subsonic downstream flow(determined by the wedge angle that is less than or greater than the sonic angle)and the steady strong shock with subsonic downstream flow,both of which satisfy the entropy condition.The fundamental issue—whether one or both of the steady weak and strong shocks are physically admissible solutions—has been vigorously debated over the past eight decades.In this paper,we survey some recent developments on the stability analysis of the steady shock solutions in both the steady and dynamic regimes.For the static stability,we first show how the stability problem can be formulated as an initial-boundary value type problem and then reformulate it into a free boundary problem when the perturbation of both the upstream steady supersonic flow and the wedge boundary are suitably regular and small,and we finally present some recent results on the static stability of the steady supersonic and transonic shocks.For the dynamic stability for potential flow,we first show how the stability problem can be formulated as an initial-boundary value problem and then use the self-similarity of the problem to reduce it into a boundary value problem and further reformulate it into a free boundary problem,and we finally survey some recent developments in solving this free boundary problem for the existence of the PrandtlMeyer configurations that tend to the steady weak supersonic or transonic oblique shock solutions as time goes to infinity.Some further developments and mathematical challenges in this direction are also discussed.     

ON A GENERALIZED GEOMETRIC CONSTANT AND SUFFICIENT CONDITIONS FOR NORMAL STRUCTURE IN BANACH SPACES

In this paper, we introduce a new geometric constant C_(N J)~(p)(a, X) of a Banach space X, which is closely related to the generalized von Neumann-Jordan constant and analyze some properties of the constant. Subsequently, we present several sufficient conditions for normal structure of a Banach space in terms of this new constant, the generalized James constant, the generalized Garc′?a-Falset coefficient and the coefficient of weak orthogonality of Sims. Our main results of the paper generalize some known results in the recent literature.     

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.     

Bounded Plurisubharmonic Exhaustion Functions and Levi-flat Hypersurfaces

In this paper, we survey some recent results on the existence of bounded plurisubharmonic functions on pseudoconvex domains, the Diederich–Forn?ss exponent and its relations with existence of domains with Levi-flat boundary in complex manifolds.     

Nadel-type multiplier ideal sheaves on complex spaces with singularities

In this article, we introduce multiplier ideal sheaves on complex spaces with singularities(not necessarily normal) via Ohsawa’s extension measure, as a special case of which, it turns out to be the socalled Mather-Jacobian multiplier ideals in the algebro-geometric setting. Inspired by Nadel’s coherence and Guan-Zhou’s strong openness properties of the multiplier ideal sheaves, we discuss similar properties for the generalized multiplier ideal sheaves. As applications, we obtain a reasonable ge...
