We study the existence problem for complete contact forms with constant Tanaka--Webster scalar curvature on non-compact strictly pseudoconvex CR manifolds. We prove that, under mild assumptions, the universal cover of a compact strictly…

This paper studies the convergence difficulty of cohesive zone models in static analysis. It is shown that an inappropriate starting point of iterations in the Newton-Raphson method is responsible for the convergence difficulty. A simple,…

Inspired by a pioneer work of Andersson-Kapitanski \cite{AK}, we prove the local well-posedness of the Cauchy problem of incompressible neo-Hookean equations if the initial deformation and velocity belong to $H^{s+1}(\mathbb{R}^n) \times…

In this paper, we show how to construct a special class of ruled hypersurfaces in the nonflat complex space forms $\mathbb{CP}^n$ and $\mathbb{C}H^n$. This is done by taking an arbitrary smooth curve in a totally geodesic (complex)…

We extend to Minkowski spaces the classical result of Barbosa and do Carmo [1] that characterizes the euclidean sphere as the unique compact stable CMC hypersurface of $\mathbb R^n$. More precisely, if $K$ is a smooth convex body in…

We study an integrable equation whose solutions define a triad of one-forms describing a surface with Gaussian curvature -1. We identify a local group of diffeomorphisms that preserve these solutions and establish conserved quantities. From…

The $Q$-prime curvature is a local pseudo-Einstein invariant on CR manifolds defined by Case and Yang, and Hirachi. Its integral, the total $Q$-prime curvature, gives a non-trivial global CR invariant. On the other hand, Marugame has…

On a bounded strictly pseudoconvex domain in $\mathbb{C}^n$, $n >1$, the smoothness of the Cheng-Yau solution to Fefferman's complex Monge-Amp\`ere equation up to the boundary is obstructed by a local curvature invariant of the boundary,…

We show that, for a closed orientable n-manifold, with n not congruent to 3 modulo 4, the existence of a CR-regular embedding into complex (n-1)-space ensures the existence of a totally real embedding into complex n-space. This implies that…

In this paper we consider the Cauchy problem for neo-Hookean incompressible elasticity in spatial dimension $d \geq 2$. We are here interested primarily in the low regularity case, $s \le s_{crit}=d/2+1$. For $d = 2, 3$, we prove existence…

The Q-curvature has been playing a central role in conformal geometry since its discovery by T. Branson. It has natural analogy in CR geometry, however, the CR Q-curvature vanishes on the boundary of a strictly pseudoconvex domain in…

In this paper, we study a second order variational problem for locally convex hypersurfaces, which is the affine invariant analogue of the classical Plateau problem for minimal surfaces. We prove existence, regularity and uniqueness results…

We show that a realization of a closed connected PL-manifold of dimension n-1 in n-dimensional Euclidean space (n>2) is the boundary of a convex polyhedron (finite or infinite) if and only if the interior of each (n-3)-face has a point,…

In this article we discuss higher Sobolev regularity of convex integration solutions for the geometrically non-linear two-well problem. More precisely, we construct solutions to the differential inclusion $\nabla u\in K$ subject to suitable…

Abstract deformations of the CR structure of a compact strictly pseudoconvex hypersurface $M$ in $\mathbb{C}^2$ are encoded by complex functions on $M$. In sharp contrast with the higher dimensional case, the natural integrability condition…

We consider a compact pseudo-hermitian manifold (M,\theta, J), that is a manifold equipped with a contact form \theta and CR structure J. We consider a conformal deformation of the contact form to obtain a complete, singular contact form…

The focus of this paper is on a poorly understood invariant of a commutative noetherian local ring $R$ with residue field $k$: the stable cohomology modules $\hat{Ext}^{n}_R(k,k)$, defined for each $n\in\mathbb{Z}$ by Benson and Carlson,…

We investigate quaternionic contact (qc) manifolds from the point of view of intrinsic torsion. We argue that the natural structure group for this geometry is a non-compact Lie group K containing Sp(n)H^*, and show that any qc structure…

The purpose of this work is to propose a mixed Hodge structure over a CR manifold. As you know, for a CR manifold, Kohn-Rossi cohomology is naturally introduced. However, the relation between Kohn-Rossi cohomology and De Rham cohomology is…

We enlarge the spectral problem of a generalized D-Kaup-Newell (D-KN) spectral problem. Solving the enlarged zero-curvature equations, we produce integrable couplings. A reduction of the spectral matrix leads to a second integrable coupling…
