In this paper, we propose a generalization of the Riemann curvature tensor on manifolds (of dimension two or higher) endowed with a Regge metric. Specifically, while all components of the metric tensor are assumed to be smooth within…
About thirty years ago we looked for "minimal assumptions" on the data which guarantee that solutions to the $\,2-D\,$ evolution Euler equations in a bounded domain are classical. Classical means here that all the derivatives appearing in…
