Moduli of Quaternionic Superminimal Immersions of 2-Spheres into Quaternionic Projective Spaces

The aim of this paper is to describe the moduli spaces of degree d quaternionic superminimal maps from 2-spheres to quaternionic projective spaces HPn. We show that such moduli spaces have the structure of projectivized fibre products and are connected quasi-projective varieties of dimension 2nd + 2n + 2. This generalizes known results for spaces of harmonic 2-spheres in S⁴.     

The geography of irreducible 4-manifolds

In this paper we investigate the existence and the uniqueness problems for simply connected irreducible -manifolds. By taking fiber sums along an embedded surface of square and by a rational blow-down procedure, we construct many new irreducible -manifolds which have infinitely many distinct smooth structures. Furthermore, we prove that all but at most finitely many lattice points lying in the non-positive signature region with are covered by these irreducible -manifolds.

     

The unitary connections on the complex Grassmann manifold

In the complex Grassmann manifold ℱ(m,n), the space of complexn-planes passes through the origin of C^m+n; the local coordinate of the space can be arranged into anm ×n matrixZ. It is proved that

First Eigenvalue of the Dirac Operator for a Kähler Manifold of Even Complex Dimension: The Limiting Case

K. D. Kirchberg has given a minoration of the absolute value of the eigenvalues of the Dirac operator for a compact Kähler spin manifold (W,g) with positive scalar curvature and has introduced, in this context, the notion of Kähler twistor-spinor. We prove here that if dim_C W = p 4 is even, in the limiting case, (W, g) is the Kähler product of an odd-dimensional limiting case compact Kähler spin manifold of complex dimension (p-1), by a flat Kähler manifold which is a compact quotient of C.     

Ample vector bundles with zero loci having a bielliptic curve section of low degree

Let be an ample vector bundle of rank r ≥ 2 on a smooth complex projective variety X of dimension n such that there exists a global section of whose zero locus Z is a smooth subvariety of dimension n − r ≥ 3 of X. Let H be an ample line bundle on X such that its restriction H _Z to Z is very ample. Triplets are classified under the assumption that (Z,H _Z ) has a smooth bielliptic curve section of genus ≥ 3 with .      

Killing vector fields of constant length on Riemannian manifolds

We study the nontrivial Killing vector fields of constant length and the corresponding flows on complete smooth Riemannian manifolds. Various examples are constructed of the Killing vector fields of constant length generated by the isometric effective almost free but not free actions of S ¹ on the Riemannian manifolds close in some sense to symmetric spaces. The latter manifolds include “almost round” odd-dimensional spheres and unit vector bundles over Riemannian manifolds. We obtain some curvature constraints on the Riemannian manifolds admitting nontrivial Killing fields of constant length.     

Generalized Transportation-Cost Inequalities and Applications

For μ: = e ^V(x)dx a probability measure on a complete connected Riemannian manifold, we establish a correspondence between the Entropy-Information inequality and the transportation-cost inequality for μ(f ²) = 1, where Φ and Ψ are increasing functions. Moreover, under the curvature–dimension condition, a Sobolev type HWI (entropy-cost-information) inequality is established. As applications, explicit estimates are obtained for the Sobolev constant and the diameter of a compact manifold, which either extend or improve some corresponding known results. Supported in part by NNSFC(10721091) and the 973-project in China.     

Compact Manifolds Covered by a Torus

Let X be a compact complex manifold which is the image of a complex torus by a holomorphic surjective map A→X. We prove that X is Kähler and that up to a finite étale cover, X is a product of projective spaces by a torus.     

一类浸入在半黎曼卷积空间的完备超曲面

We deal with complete hypersurfaces immersed in a semi-Riemannian warped product of the type eI×f M~n,where M~n is a connected n-dimensional oriented Riemannian manifold.When the fiber M~n is complete with sectional curvature-k≤K_M for some positive constant k,under appropriate restrictions on the norm of the gradient of the height function h,we proceed with our technique in order to guarantee that complete hypersurface immersed in a semi-Riemannian warped product is a slice.Our approach is based on the well known generalized maximum principle and another suitable maximum principle at the infinity due to Yau.
