We prove the existence of stationary discs in the ball for small almost complex deformations of the standard structure. We define a local analogue of the Riemann map and establish its main properties. These constructions are applied to…
The present document is the draft of a book which presents an introduction to infinite-dimensional differential geometry beyond Banach manifolds. As is well known the usual calculus breaks down in this setting. Hence, we replace it by the…
We present an extended version of Riemannian geometry suitable for the description of current formulations of double field theory (DFT). This framework is based on graded manifolds and it yields extended notions of symmetries, dynamical…
We investigate the existence of weak expanding solutions of the harmonic map flow for maps with values into a smooth closed Riemannian manifold. We prove the existence of such solutions in case the target manifold is isometrically embedded…
We study the influence of geometry on semilinear elliptic equations of bistable or nonlinear-field type in unbounded domains. We discover a surprising dichotomy between epigraphs that are bounded from below and those that contain a cone of…
We present sufficient conditions so that a conformal map between planar domains whose boundary components are Jordan curves or points has a continuous or homeomorphic extension to the closures of the domains. Our conditions involve the…
We prove that if $M$ and $N$ are Riemannian, oriented $n$-dimensional manifolds without boundary and additionally $N$ is compact, then Sobolev mappings $W^{1,n}(M,N)$ of finite distortion are continuous. In particular, $W^{1,n}(M,N)$…
In the present paper we deal with (local) infinitesimal isometries of special sub-Riemannian manifolds (a contact and oriented sub-Riemannian manifold is called special if the Reeb vector field is an isometry). The objective of the paper is…
We give a simple upper bound for the upper box dimension of a backward invariant set of a $C^{1}$-diffeomorphism of a Riemannian manifold. We also estimate an upper bound for the box dimension of a forward invariant set of a $C^{1}$-mapping…
We study when a map between two subsets of a Boolean domain W can be extended to an automorphism of W. Under many hypotheses, if the underlying Boolean algebra is complete or if the sets are finite or Boolean domains, the necessary and…
For a compact connected Riemannian manifold with smooth boundary, by computing the full symbol of the elastic Dirichlet-to-Neumann map, we prove that the elastic Dirichlet-to-Neumann map can uniquely determine the partial derivatives of all…
We consider harmonic maps into pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. We show the removability of isolated singularities for continuous maps, i.e. that any continuous map from an open subset of R^m into a pseudo-Riemannian manifold which is two times…
The Dirichlet-to-Neumann map associated to an elliptic partial differential equation becomes multivalued when the underlying Dirichlet problem is not uniquely solvable. The main objective of this paper is to present a systematic study of…
In this thesis, we study extensions of the theory of Riemannian submanifolds in two directions. First, we will show how Riemannian geometry and submanifold theory in particular, can be generalized using the notion of 'Rinehart spaces', and…
New splitting theorems in a semi-Riemannian manifold which admits an irrotational vector field (not necessarily a gradient) with some suitable properties are obtained. According to the extras hypothesis assumed on the vector field, we can…
We study boundary regularity of maps from two-dimensional domains into manifolds which are critical with respect to a generic conformally invariant variational functional and which, at the boundary, enter perpendicularly into a support…
In this article we show how holomorphic Riemannian geometry can be used to relate certain submanifolds in one pseudo-Riemannian space to submanifolds with corresponding geometric properties in other spaces. In order to do so, we shall first…
Given a non-compact Riemannian manifold M and a submanifold N of codimension q, we will construct under certain assumptions on both M and N a wrong way map in uniformly finite homology. Using an equivariant version of the construction and…
We consider the class of profinite diffeological spaces, that is, diffeological spaces which diffeologies are deduced by pull-back of diffeologies on finite-dimensional manifolds through a system of projection mappings. This class includes…
This is an overview article. In his Habilitationsvortrag, Riemann described infinite dimensional manifolds parameterizing functions and shapes of solids. This is taken as an excuse to describe convenient calculus in infinite dimensions…
