We clarify how close a second order fully nonlinear equation can come to uniform ellipticity, through counting large eigenvalues of the linearized operator. This suggests an effective and novel way to understand the structure of fully…

We review and give elementary proofs of Liouville type properties of harmonic and subharmonic functions in the plane endowed with a complete Riemannian metric, and prove a gap theorem for the possible growth of harmonic functions when this…

A Lie algebra is said to be metric if it admits a symmetric invariant and nondegenerate bilinear form. The harmonic oscillator algebra, which arises in the quantum mechanical description of a harmonic oscillator, is the smallest solvable…

Motivated by a variant of Atiyah-Floer conjecture proposed in \cite{L2} and its potential generalizations, we study in this article and its sequel as a first step properties of moduli spaces of Seiberg-Witten equations on a 3-dimensional…

We describe for any Riemannian manifold a certain infinitesimal neighbourhood of the diagonal. Semi-conformal maps are analyzed as those that preserve such neighbourhoods; harmonic maps are analyzed as those that preserve mirror image…

We show that the main theorem of Morse theory holds for a large class of functions on singular spaces. The function must satisfy certain conditions extending the usual requirements on a manifold that Condition C holds and the gradient flow…

One of effective ways to solve the equivalence problem and describe moduli spaces for real submanifolds in complex space is the normal form approach. In this survey, we outline some normal form constructions in CR-geometry and formulate a…

We state and prove a Cheeger-like inequality for coexact 1-forms on closed orientable Riemannian manifolds.

Given a closed manifold of positive Yamabe invariant and for instance positive Morse functions upon it, the conformally prescribed scalar curvature problem raises the question, whether or not such functions can by conformally changing the…

We relate the positivity of the curvature term in the Weitzenbock formula for the Laplacian on p-forms on a complete manifold to the existence of bounded and $L^2$ harmonic forms. In the case where the manifold is the universal cover of a…

The Morse-Bott inequalities relate the topology of a closed manifold to the topology of the critical point set of a Morse-Bott function defined on it. The Morse-Bott inequalities are sometimes stated under incorrect orientation assumptions.…

Assuming Calabi symmetry, we prove that a numerical condition ensures the solvability of the complex Hessian quotient equation, as conjectured by Sz\'ekelyhidi. We also propose a conjecture on the existence of a $k$-subharmonic…

If M is a riemannian manifold, then the inclusion of the complex of coclosed harmonic forms into the de Rham complex induces a linear isomorphism in cohomology. If M has at most countably many connected components, this linear isomorphism…

In a statistical mechanics model with unbounded spins, we prove uniqueness of the Gibbs measure under various assumptions on finite volume functional inequalities. We follow the approach of G. Royer (1999) and obtain uniqueness by showing…

We consider eigenvalue condition numbers and backward errors for a class of symmetric nonlinear eigenvalue problems with eigenvector nonlinearities. For both of these quantities, we derive explicit and computable expressions that can be…

The aim of this paper is to give an overview of some inequalities about $L^p$-norms ($p= 1$ or $p= 2$) of harmonic (periodic) and non-harmonic trigonometric polynomials. Among the material covered, we mention Ingham's Inequality about 2…

In this article, we investigate the topological properties of complex manifolds by studying Dolbeault-Morse-Novikov cohomology. By establishing an integral inequality, we obtain two main results: (1) When a closed complex manifold admits a…

We consider geometries on the space of Riemannian metrics conformally equivalent to the widely studied Ebin L^2 metric. Among these we characterize a distinguished metric that can be regarded as a generalization of Calabi's metric on the…

We discuss algebraic and combinatorial aspects of the Hamiltonian normal form theory. The main objective is to describe the normal form near a singular point purely in terms of the original Hamiltonian, avoiding the normalization procedure.…

In this paper under some growth condition we investigate the connection between RBMO and the Morrey spaces. We do not assume the doubling condition which has been a key property of harmonic analysis. We also obtain another type of…
