This paper investigates conformal deformations of the scalar curvature and mean curvature on complete Riemannian manifolds with boundary. We establish sufficient conditions for the existence of conformal deformations to complete metrics…
Some forms of qKdV type equations are indicated which arise from Virasoro considerations.
We prove a priori interior curvature estimates for hypersurfaces of prescribing scalar curvature equations in dimension three. The method is motivated by the integral method of Warren and Yuan. The new observation here is that the…
In the last 15 years, White and Huisken-Sinestrari developed a far-reaching structure theory for the mean curvature flow of mean convex hypersurfaces. Their papers provide a package of estimates and structural results that yield a precise…
In this article we give a survey on open problems and conjectures concerning L^2-invariants. We cover the whole portfolio and not only certain aspects as they are considered in the previous more specialized (and within their scope more…
The article contains a brief description on the study of conformal scalar curvature equations, and discusses selected topics and questions concerning the equations in open spaces.
The anomalous scaling of correlation functions in the turbulent statistics of active scalars (like temperature in turbulent convection) is understood in terms of an auxiliary passive scalar which is advected by the same turbulent velocity…
For submanifolds tangent to the structure vector field in cosymplectic space forms, we establish a basic inequality between the main intrinsic invariants of the submanifold, namely its sectional curvature and scalar curvature on one side;…
We fill the two main remaining gaps in the full classification of non-degenerate planar traveling waves of scalar balance laws from the point of view of spectral and nonlinear stability/instability under smooth perturbations. On one hand we…
We establish an inequality among the Ricci curvature, the squared mean curvature, and the normal curvature for real hypersurfaces in complex space forms. We classify real hypersurfaces in two-dimensional non-flat complex space forms which…
It is conjectured that the dual variety of every smooth nonlinear subvariety of dimension $> \frac{2N}{3}$ in projective $N$-space is a hypersurface, an expectation known as the duality defect conjecture. This would follow from the truth of…
We study analogues of Sidorenko's conjecture and the forcing conjecture in oriented graphs, showing that natural variants of these conjectures in directed graphs are equivalent to the asymmetric, undirected analogues of the conjectures.
We prove the Strengthened Hanna Neumann Conjecture, in its common graph theoretic formulation. Our original approach to this conjecture used cohomology of sheaves on graphs, although here we give a short combinatorial proof that we found in…
The status and regime of validity of the famous Thorne hoop conjecture in spatially regular {\it charged} curved spacetimes are clarified.
As a natural application of the {\it theory of geometric averaging} in Finsler geometry and generalized Finsler geometry, a new approach to investigate {\it generalized Finsler geometry}, based on a convex invariance of the average…
This is not in any way meant to be a complete survey on positive curvature. Rather it is a short essay on the fascinating changes in the landscape surrounding positive curvature. In particular, details and many results and references are…
Curvature is a fundamental geometric characteristic of smooth spaces. In recent years different notions of curvature have been developed for combinatorial discrete objects such as graphs. However, the connections between such discrete…
We point out how some recent developments in the theory of constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metrics can be used to clarify the existence issue for such metrics in the special case of geometrically ruled complex surfaces.
We present a local and constructive differential geometric description of finite-dimensional solvable and transitive Lie algebras of vector fields. We show that it implies a Lie's conjecture for such Lie algebras. Also infinite-dimensional…
We study the geometric flow of a planar curve driven by its curvature and the normal derivative of its capacity potential. Under a convexity condition that is natural to our problem, we establish long term existence and large time…
