Some remarks on embedded hypersurfaces in hyperbolic space of constant curvature and spherical boundary

We consider embedded hypersurfacesM in hyperbolic space with compact boundaryC and somer ^th mean curvature functionH _r a positive constant. We investigate when symmetries ofC are symmetries ofM. We prove that if 0H _r1 andC is a sphere thenM is a part of an equidistant sphere. Forr=1 (H ₁ is the mean curvature) we obtain results whenC is convex.     

Dynamical borel-cantelli lemma for hyperbolic spaces

We prove that almost every (resp. almost no) geodesic rays in a finite volume hyperbolic manifold of real dimensionn intersects for arbitrary large timest a decreasing family of balls of radiusr _t, provided the integral ∫ ₀ ^∞ r _t ⁿ −1 dt diverges (resp. converges).     

Best approximations of the classes B p,θ r of periodic functions of many variables in uniform metric

We obtain estimates exact in order for the best approximations of the classes B _∞,θ ^r of periodic functions of two variables in the metric of L _∞ by trigonometric polynomials whose spectrum belongs to a hyperbolic cross. We also investigate the best approximations of the classes B _p,θ ^r , 1 ≤ p < ∞, of periodic functions of many variables in the metric of L _∞ by trigonometric polynomials whose spectrum belongs to a graded hyperbolic cross. __________ Translated from Ukrains’kyi Matematychnyi Zhurnal, Vol. 58, No. 10, pp. 1395–1406, October, 2006.     

Chtoucas de Drinfeld et correspondance de Langlands

One proves Langlands’ correspondence for GL _r over function fields.

Upper and Lower Bounds on Resonances for Manifolds Hyperbolic Near Infinity

For a conformally compact manifold that is hyperbolic near infinity and of dimension n + 1, we complete the proof of the optimal O(r ⁿ⁺¹) upper bound on the resonance counting function, correcting a mistake in the existing literature. In the case of a compactly supported perturbation of a hyperbolic manifold, we establish a Poisson formula expressing the regularized wave trace as a sum over scattering resonances. This leads to an r ⁿ⁺¹ lower bound on the counting function for scattering poles.     

Harmonic maps between annuli on Riemann surfaces

Let ρ _Σ = h(|z|²) be a metric in a Riemann surface Σ, where h is a positive real function. Let H _{r 1} = {w = f(z)} be the family of a univalent ρ _Σ harmonic mapping of the Euclidean annulus A(r ₁, 1):= {z: r ₁ < |z| < 1} onto a proper annulus A _Σ of the Riemann surface Σ, which is subject to some geometric restrictions. It is shown that if A _Σ is fixed, then sup{r ₁: ℋ _{r 1} ≠ ∅} < 1. This generalizes similar results from the Euclidean case. The cases of Riemann and of hyperbolic harmonic mappings are treated in detail. Using the fact that the Gauss map of a surface with constant mean curvature (CMC) is a Riemann harmonic mapping, an application to the CMC surfaces is given (see Corollary 3.2). In addition, some new examples of hyperbolic and Riemann radial harmonic diffeomorphisms are given, which have inspired some new J. C. C. Nitsche-type conjectures for the class of these mappings.     

Harmonic manifolds with some specific volume densities

We show that a noncompact, complete, simply connected harmonic manifold (M ^d, g) with volume densityθ _m(r)=sinh^d-1 r is isometric to the real hyperbolic space and a noncompact, complete, simply connected Kähler harmonic manifold (M ^2d, g) with volume densityθ _m(r)=sinh^2d-1 r coshr is isometric to the complex hyperbolic space. A similar result is also proved for quaternionic Kähler manifolds. Using our methods we get an alternative proof, without appealing to the powerful Cheeger-Gromoll splitting theorem, of the fact that every Ricci flat harmonic manifold is flat. Finally a rigidity result for real hyperbolic space is presented.     

Equations fonctionnelles et estimations de normes de matrices

We solve independently the equations 1/θ(x)θ(y)=ψ(x)−ψ(y)+φ(x−y)/θ(x−y) and 1/θ(x)θ(y)=σ(x)−σ(y)/θ(x−y)+τ(x)τ(y), τ(0)=0. In both cases we find θ²=aθ⁴+bθ²+c. We deduce estimates for the spectral radius of a matrix of type(1/θ(x _r −x _s )) (the accent meaning that the coefficients of the main diagonal are zero) and we study the case where thex _r are equidistant.

The Diameter of a Hyperbolic Disc

Recently, Matti Vuorinen asked whether the set-theoretic diameter of a hyperbolic disc of radius r in a hyperbolic plane region Ω is 2r. The answer is affirmative if Ω is simply or doubly connected. However, there are a hyperbolic discs in the triply-punctured sphere whose set-theoretic diameter is less than twice the radius. Also, for finitely connected hyperbolic plane regions all hyperbolic discs sufficiently close to the boundary have set-theoretic diameter equal to twice the radius. Precisely, if Ω is a hyperbolic plane region of finite connectivity, then there is a compact subset K of Ω such that any hyperbolic disc which is disjoint from K has diameter equal to twice the radius.     

Integral formulas for compact spacelike hypersurfaces in de sitter space and their applications to Goddard's conjecture

We establish integral formulas of Minkowski's type for compact spacelike hypersurfaces in de sitter spaceS ₁ ⁿ⁺¹ (1) and give their applications to the case of constantr-th mean curvature (r=1,2,…,n−1). Whenr=1 we recover Montiel's result.

On a class of nonlocal bifurcation concerning the Lorenz attractor

In this paper, we consider a two-parameter family of systemsE in whichE ₀ has a contour consisting of a saddle point and two hyperbolic periodic orbits, i.e., the situation is similar to that described by the Lorenz equations for parametersb= 8/3,=10,r=r ₁ 24.06. For the generic unfoldingE ofE ₀, we find three kinds of infinitely many bifurcation curves and establish the correspondence of the trajectories which stay forever in a sufficiently small neighborhood of the contour with symbolic systems of finite or countably infinite symbols; these results can be used to explain the turbulence behaviors appearing at the critical valuer=r ₁ 24.06 observed on computer for Lorenz equations in a precise mathematical way.     

Submanifolds in de sitter space-time satisfying ΔH=λH

In [3] the author initiated the study of submanifolds whose mean curvature vectorH is an eigenvector of the Laplacian Δ and proved that such submanifolds are either biharmonic or of 1-type or of null 2-type. The classification of surfaces with ΔH=λH in a Euclidean 3-space was done by the author in 1988. Moreover, in [4] the author classified such submanifolds in hyperbolic spaces. In this article we study this problem for space-like submanifolds of the Minkowski space-timeE ₁ ^m when the submanifolds lie in a de Sitter space-time. As a result, we characterize and classify such submanifolds in de Sitter space-times.     

Spacelike surfaces in anti de Sitter four-space from a contact viewpoint

We define the notions of (S _t ¹ × S _s ²)-nullcone Legendrian Gauss maps and S ₊²-nullcone Lagrangian Gauss maps on spacelike surfaces in anti de Sitter 4-space. We investigate the relationships between singularities of these maps and geometric properties of surfaces as an application of the theory of Legendrian/Lagrangian singularities. By using S ₊²-nullcone Lagrangian Gauss maps, we define the notion of S ₊²-nullcone Gauss-Kronecker curvatures and show a Gauss-Bonnet type theorem as a global property. We also introduce the notion of horospherical Gauss maps which have geometric properties different from those of the above Gauss maps. As a consequence, we can say that anti de Sitter space has much richer geometric properties than the other space forms such as Euclidean space, hyperbolic space, Lorentz-Minkowski space and de Sitter space.

W-flows on Weyl manifolds and Gaussian thermostats

We introduce W-flows, by modifying the geodesic flow on a Weyl manifold, and show that they coincide with the isokinetic dynamics. We establish some connections between negative curvature of the Weyl structure and the hyperbolicity of W-flows, generalizing in dimension 2 the classical result of Anosov on Riemannian geodesic flows. In higher dimensions we establish only weaker hyperbolic properties. We extend the theory to billiard W-flows and introduce the Weyl counterparts of Sinai billiards. We obtain that the isokinetic Lorentz gas with the constant external field E and scatterers of radius r, studied by Chernov, Eyink, Lebowitz and Sinai, is uniformly hyperbolic, if only r|E|<1, and this condition is sharp.     

Sur l'approximation de fonctions intégrables sur [0, 1] par des polynômes de Bernstein modifies

We study here a new kind of modified Bernstein polynomial operators on L¹(0, 1) introduced by J. L. Durrmeyer in [4]. We define for f integrable on [0, 1] the modified Bernstein polynomial M_n f: M_nf(x) = (n + 1) ∑ⁿ_{k = o}P_nk(x)∝¹₀ P_nk(t) f(t) dt. If the derivative d^r f/dx^r with r 0 is continuous on [0, 1], d^r/dx^rM_n f converge uniformly on [0,1] and sup_xε[0,1] ¦M_n f(x) − f(x)¦ 2ω_f(1/trn) if ω_f is the modulus of continuity of f. If f is in Sobolev space W_l,p(0, 1) with l 0, p 1, M_n f converge to f in w^l,p(0, 1).     

Accessibility and stable ergodicity for partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms with 1D-center bundle

We prove that stable ergodicity is C ^r open and dense among conservative partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms with one-dimensional center bundle, for all r∈[2,∞]. The proof follows the Pugh–Shub program [29]: among conservative partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms with one-dimensional center bundle, accessibility is C ^r open and dense, and essential accessibility implies ergodicity.

Variation de la L-norme de la 1-forme de torsion sur une variété hermitienne compacte

Let (M,g) be a complex compact hermitian manifold with dimension complex dim_C = m ≥ 2, we study in this paper the critical points of the functional: in the set of the hermitian metrics with total volume equal to one, where θ is 1 — form of torsion of the Chern connexion and r is a real number such that 1 ≤ r ≤ m. We show that the critical points of this functional are exactly a semi-kählerian metric.     

Permutations with roots

We prove that the probability p₂(n) that a random permutation of length n has a square root is monotonically nonincreasing in n. More generally, we prove that the probability p_r(n) that a random permutation of length n has an rth root, r prime, is monotonically nonincreasing in n. We also show for all r≥2 that p_r(n)→0 as n→∞. While doing this, we combinatorially prove that p_r(n)=p_r(n+1) for r prime and for all n not congruent to −1 mod r, and we construct several bijections for sets of permutations defined by modular class restrictions on the cycle lengths. We also include a simple probabilistic proof that, for r≥2, p_r(n)→0 as n→∞. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Random Struct. Alg., 17: 157–167, 2000
