We give a Riemannian structure to the set $\Sigma$ of positive invertible unitized Hilbert-Schmidt operators, by means of the trace inner product. This metric makes of $\Sigma$ a nonpositively curved, simply connected and metrically…

In this paper we present a preliminary study on the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator with respect to a second order elliptic operator with measurable coefficients, including first order terms, namely, the operator on $L^2(\partial\Omega)$…

This is a sequel to arXiv:2401.02087. We prove the Green function rigidity conjecture in arXiv:2401.02087 for conformal Laplacian in dimension $n\geq 3$. For the Paneitz operator, we prove the Green function rigidity conjecture when $n\neq…

The paper proves two results involving a pair (A,B) of P-biisometric or (m,P)-biisometric Hilbert-space operators for arbitrary positive integer m and positive operator P. It is shown that if A and B are power bounded and the pair (A,B) is…

Let $E$ be a real Banach space. For $x,y \in E,$ we follow R.James in saying that $x$ is orthogonal to $y$ if $\|x+\alpha y\|\geq \|x\|$ for every $\alpha \in R$. We prove that every operator from $E$ into itself preserving orthogonality is…

In this note, we study Einstein manifolds whose curvature operator of the second kind $\mathring{R}$ satisfies the cone condition \[ \alpha^{-1}\big(\sum_{i=1}^{[\alpha]} \lambda_i+ (\alpha - [\alpha] ) \lambda_{[\alpha] + 1} \big) \ge…

In the context of synthetic differential geometry, we study the Laplace operator an a Riemannian manifold. The main new aspect is a neighbourhood of the diagonal, smaller than the second neighbourhood usually required as support for second…

We describe a new interpretation of the fractional GJMS operators as generalized Dirichlet-to-Neumann operators associated to weighted GJMS operators on naturally associated smooth metric measure spaces. This gives a geometric…

Let $(M, g)$ be an asymptotically flat Riemannian $3$-manifold with non-negative scalar curvature and positive mass. We show that each leaf of the canonical foliation through stable constant mean curvature surfaces of the end of $(M, g)$ is…

In this paper we classify the nonnegative global minimizers of the functional \[ J_F(u)=\int_\Omega F(|\nabla u|^2)+\lambda^2\chi_{\{u>0\}}, \] where $F$ satisfies some structural conditions and $\chi_D$ is the characteristic function of a…

Fix $b\in (0,\infty)$ and $p\in (1,\infty)$. Let $\phi$ be a positive measurable function on $I_b:=(0,b)$. Define the Lorentz Gamma norm, $\r_{p,\phi}$, at the measurable function $f:\R+\to\R+$ by…

We study compactness for nonnegative solutions of the fourth order constant $Q$-curvature equations on smooth compact Riemannian manifolds of dimension $\ge 5$. If the $Q$-curvature equals $-1$, we prove that all solutions are universally…

We define the "sum of squares of the wavelengths" of a Riemannian surface (M,g) to be the regularized trace of the inverse of the Laplacian. We normalize by scaling and adding a constant, to obtain a "mass", which is scale invariant and…

In this paper, we focus on the weighted Bergman spaces $A_{\varphi}^{p}$ in $\mathbb{D}$ with $\varphi\in\mathcal{W}_{0}$. We first give characterizations of those finite positive Borel measures $\mu$ in $\mathbb{D}$ such that the embedding…

In this note we review some results regarding higher order elliptic differential operators on manifolds without boundary.

An explicit lower bound for the mass of an asymptotically flat Riemannian 3-manifold is given in terms of linear growth harmonic functions and scalar curvature. As a consequence, a new proof of the positive mass theorem is achieved in…

We provide a full resolution of the Yamabe problem on closed 3-manifolds for Riemannian metrics of Sobolev class $W^{2,q}$ with $q > 3$. This requires developing an elliptic theory for the conformal Laplacian for rough metrics and…

Let $(\Sigma_A, \sigma)$ be a subshift of finite type and let $M(x)$ be a continuous function on $\Sigma_A$ taking values in the set of non-negative matrices. We extend the classical scalar pressure function to this new setting and prove…

This is the final part of a series of papers where we study perturbations of divergence form second order elliptic operators $-\operatorname{div} A \nabla$ by first and zero order terms, whose complex coefficients lie in critical spaces,…

On a smooth asymptotically flat Riemannian manifold with non-compact boundary, we prove a positive mass theorem for metrics which are only continuous across a compact hypersurface. As an application, we obtain a positive mass theorem on…
