In this paper the Gromov-Witten invariants on a class of noncompact symplectic manifolds are defined by combining Ruan-Tian's method with that of McDuff-Salamon. The main point of the arguments is to introduce a method dealing with the…
We study the Cauchy problem of a Hamilton-Jacobi equation with the spatial variable in a closed convex cone. A monotonicity assumption on the nonlinearity allows us to prescribe no condition on the boundary of the cone. We show the…
