In this paper we prove that a complete Riemannian manifold is $L^p$-positivity preserving for any $p\in(1,\infty)$. This means that any $L^p$ function which solves $(-\Delta + 1)u\ge 0$ in the sense of distributions is necessarily…
We consider the following question: Given a connected open domain $\Omega\subset R^n$, suppose $u,v:\Omega\rightarrow R^n$ with $\det(\nabla u)>0$, $\det(\nabla v)>0$ a.e. are such that $\nabla u^T(x)\nabla u(x)=\nabla v(x)^T \nabla v(x)$…
The classical Liouville theorem states that a bounded harmonic function on all of $\RR^n$ must be constant. In the early 1970s, S.T. Yau vastly generalized this, showing that it holds for manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature.…
For the two dimensional stationary MHD equations, we proved that Liouville type theorems hold if the velocity is growing at infinity, where the magnetic field is assumed to be bounded under a smallness condition. The key point is to…
Let $m\ge 2$ be an integer. For any open domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{2m}$, non-positive function $\varphi\in C^\infty(\Omega)$ such that $\Delta^m \varphi\equiv 0$, and bounded sequence $(V_k)\subset L^\infty(\Omega)$ we prove the…

We prove that if the Sobolev embedding $M^{1,p}(X)\hookrightarrow L^q(X)$ holds for some $q>p\geq 1$ in a metric measure space $(X,d,\mu),$ then a constant $C$ exists such that $\mu(B(x,r))\geq Cr^n$ for all $x\in X$ and all $0<r\leq 1,$…
We prove a Liouville-type theorem for semilinear parabolic systems of the form $${\partial_t u_i}-\Delta u_i =\sum_{j=1}^{m}\beta_{ij} u_i^ru_j^{r+1}, \quad i=1,2,...,m$$ in the whole space ${\mathbb R}^N\times {\mathbb R}$. Very recently,…
Using minimal hypersurfaces, we obtain topological obstructions to admitting complete metrics with positive scalar curvature on a given class of non-compact n-manifolds with n less than 8. We show that the Liouville theorem for a locally…
The following theorem is proved: Suppose $M = (a_{i,j})$ be a $k \times k$ matrix with positive entries and $a_{i,j}a_{i+1,j+1} > 4\cos ^2 \frac{\pi}{k+1} a_{i,j+1}a_{i+1,j} \quad (1 \leq i \leq k-1, 1 \leq j \leq k-1).$ Then $\det M > 0 .$…
We prove new one-dimensional symmetry results for non-negative solutions, possibly unbounded, to the semilinear equation $ -\Delta u= f(u)$ in the upper half-space $\mathbb{R}^{N}_{+}$. Some Liouville-type theorems are also proven in the…
We establish Liouville type theorems for elliptic systems with various classes of non-linearities on $\mathbb{R}^N$. We show among other things, that a system has no semi-stable solution in any dimension, whenever the infimum of the…
The Kahane--Salem--Zygmund inequality for multilinear forms in $\ell_{\infty}$ spaces claims that, for all positive integers $m,n_{1},...,n_{m}$, there exists an $m$-linear form $A\colon\ell_{\infty}^{n_{1}}\times\cdots\times…
We prove Liouville theorem for the equation $\Delta v + N v^p + M |\nabla v|^{q}= 0$ in $\mathbb R^n$, with $M, N > 0, q = \frac{2p}{p + 1}$ in the critical and subcritical case. The proof is based on a differential identity and Young…

Motivated from one-dimensional rigidity results of entire solutions to Liouville equation, we consider the semilinear equation \begin{align} \label{liouvilleequationab} \Delta u=G(u) \quad \mbox{in $\mathbb{R}^n$}, \end{align}where $G>0,…
Morel's stable connectivity theorems state that for any connective $S^1$-spectrum $F$ of motivic spaces (Nisnevich simplicial sheaves) over an arbitrary field, the spectrum $L_{\mathbb A^1}(F)$ is connective, and the same property for…
Let $T$ be a positive closed current of bidimension $(p,p)$ with unit mass on the complex projective space $\mathbb P^n$. For certain values of $\alpha$ and $\beta = \beta(p, \alpha)$ we show that if $T$ has enough points where the Lelong…

Let $r$ and $n$ be positive integers such that $r<n$, and $\mathbb{K}$ be an arbitrary field. In a recent work, we have determined the maximal dimension for a linear subspace of $n$ by $n$ symmetric matrices with rank less than or equal to…
