For a closed minimal submanifold $f:M^n\looparrowright \mathbb{S}^{N}$ in the unit sphere $(n<N)$, we prove $${\rm Vol}(M^n) \geq\frac{n+1}{n+2}\int_{M}\left( 1+\varphi_{p}^2\right) \geq m{\rm Vol}(\mathbb{S}^{n}),$$ where…
Chung-Grigor'yan-Yau's inequality describes upper bounds of eigenvalues of Laplacian in terms of subsets ("input") and their volumes. In this paper we will show that we can reduce "input" in Chung-Grigor'yan-Yau's inequality in the setting…
The goal of this article is to establish estimates involving the Yamabe minimal volume, mixed minimal volume and some topological invariants on compact 4-manifolds. In addition, we provide topological sphere theorems for compact…
An integral inequality is derived for compact submanifolds (with or without boundary) in the unit sphere. This result leads to a characterization of spheres.
We investigate the asymptotic expansion and the renormalized volume of minimal submanifolds, $Y^m$ of arbitrary codimension in Poincare-Einstein manifolds, $M^{n+1}$. In particular, we derive formulae for the first and second variations of…
We prove several inequalities estimating the distance between volumes of two bodies in terms of the maximal or minimal difference between areas of sections or projections of these bodies. We also provide extensions in which volume is…
Based on the seminal Simons' formula, Shen \cite{Shen} and Lin-Xia \cite{LX} obtained gap theorems for compact minimal submanifolds in the unit sphere in the late 1980's. Then due to the effect of Xu \cite{Xu}, Ni \cite{Ni}, Yun \cite{Yun}…
In this paper we determine a larger gap of the mean curvature for a class of proper biharmonic submanifolds with parallel mean curvature vector field in Euclidean spheres. When the bounds of the gap are reached, we obtain splitting results…
We determine the minimal volume of a stable surface of rank one, and show that the surface attaining this minimum is unique up to isomorphism. This resolves a conjecture of Alexeev and the second author. Of independent interest, the…
A Hamiltonian formulation of Yang-Mills-Chern-Simons theories with $0\leq N\leq 4$ supersymmetry in terms of gauge-invariant variables is presented, generalizing earlier work on nonsupersymmetric gauge theories. Special attention is paid to…
In this short note, exploits of constructions of $\mathcal{F}$-structures coupled with technology developed by Cheeger-Gromov and Paternain-Petean are seen to yield a procedure to compute minimal entropy, minimal volume, Yamabe invariant…
We establish the Bonnet-Myers theorem and the Bishop-Gromov volume comparison theorem in the spectral sense for manifolds with weakly convex boundary. For $n\geq 3$, let $(M^n,g)$ be a simply connected compact smooth $n$-manifold with…
Let $K$ be an $n$-dimensional convex body. Define the difference body by $$ K-K= \{x-y \mid x,y \in K \}. $$ We estimate the volume of the section of $K-K$ by a linear subspace $F$ via the maximal volume of sections of $K$ parallel to $F$.…
We prove inequalities for Laplace eigenvalues on Riemannian manifolds generalising to higher eigenvalues two classical inequalities for the first Laplace eigenvalue - the inequality in terms of the $L^2$-norm of mean curvature, due to…
We use Papasoglu's method of area-minimizing separating sets to give an alternative proof, and explicit constants, for the following theorem of Guth and Braun--Sauer: If $M$ is a closed, oriented, $n$-dimensional manifold, with a Riemannian…
For a twist knot $\mathcal{K}_{p'}$, let $M$ be the closed $3$-manifold obtained by doing $(p, q)$ Dehn-filling along $\mathcal{K}_{p'}$. In this article, we prove that Chen-Yang's volume conjecture holds for sufficiently large $|p| + |q|$…
A minor improvement is made to the calculation of the inhomogeneity term. The new calculation gives better agreement with the observations of Daoud et al. and Cheng-Graessley-Melnichenko.
In this paper, we investigate the Dirichlet problem of Laplacian on complete Riemannian manifolds. By constructing new trial functions, we obtain a sharp upper bound of the gap of the consecutive eigenvalues in the sense of the order, which…
We compute the Bonahon-Wong-Yang quantum invariant for self-diffeomorphisms of the four-puncture sphere explicitly, based on the representation theory of the Checkov-Fock algebra. As an application of the computation, we verify the volume…
We prove that a bounded open set U in Euclidean n-space has k-width less than C(n) Volume(U)^{k/n}. Using this estimate, we give lower bounds for the k-dilation of degree 1 maps between certain domains in Euclidean space. In particular, we…
