In this paper, we present an interesting application of Baire's category theorem.
In this paper, we show that the Chen-Nester-Tung (CNT) quasi-local energy is closely related to the Wang-Yau (WY) quasi-local mass. As a particular example, we compute the second variation of the CNT quasi-local energy for axially symmetric Kerr-like spacetimes with axially symmetric embeddings at the obvious critical point (0,0) and find that it is a saddle critical point in most of the cases. Also, as a byproduct, we generalize a previous result about the coincidence of CNT quasi-local energy and Brown-York mass for Kerr-like spacetimes by Tam and the first author to general spacetimes.
This is a continuation of our previous work arXiv:1601.05617 on trace and inverse trace of Steklov eigenvalues. More new inequalities for the trace and inverse trace of Steklov eigenvalues are obtained.
In this paper, we obtain some new estimates for the trace and inverse trace of Steklov eigenvalues. The estimates generalize some previous results of Hersch-Payne-Schiffer , Brock}, Raulot-Savo and Dittmar.
In this paper, motivated by the work of Raulot and Savo, we generalize Raulot-Savo's estimate for the first Steklov eigenvalues of Euclidean domains to higher Steklov eigenvalues.
In this paper, we compute the derivatives of the line segment energy for a symmetric tensor field and apply them to obtain slightly more general log-concavity estimates for positive solutions of heat equations and first eigenfunctions on bounded strictly convex domains.
In this paper, we generalize the Hersch-Payne-Schiffer inequality for Steklov eigenvalues to higher dimensional case by extending the trick used by Hersch, Payne and Schiffer to higher dimensional manifolds.
We obtain supremum of the k-th normalized Steklov eigenvalues of all rotational symmetric conformal metrics on the cylinder with k>1. The case k=1 for all conformal metrics has been completely solved by Fraser and Schoen. We give geometric description in terms of minimal surfaces for metrics attaining the supremum. We also obtain some partial results on the comparison of the normalized Stekov eigenvalues of rotationally symmetric metrics and general conformal metrics on the cylinder. A counter example is constructed to show that for that the first normalized Steklov eigenvalue of rotationally symmetric metric may not be larger.
In this paper, by using the Bochner technique on almost Hermitian manifolds, we obtain a complex Hessian comparison for almost Hermitian manifolds generalizing the Laplacian comparison for almost Hermitian manifolds by Tossati, and reprove a diameter estimate for almost Hermitian manifolds by Gray. Moreover, we obtain a sharp eigenvalue estimate on quasi Kaehler manifolds and a sharp Hessian comparison on nearly Kaehler manifolds.
In this paper, by introducing a notion of local quasi holomorphic frame, we obtain a curvature formula for almost Hermitian manifolds which is similar to that of Hermitian manifolds. Moreover, as applications of the curvature formula, we extend a result of H.S. Wu and a result of F. Zheng to almost Hermitian manifolds.
This is a continuous work about the nonexistence of some complete metrics on the product of two manifolds studied by Tam-Yu [Asian Journal of Mathematics, 14(2010)]. Motivated by the result of Tossati [Comm.Anal.Geom. 15(2007)]. We generalize the corresponding results of Tam-Yu [Asian Journal of Mathematics, 14(2010)] to the almost-Hermitian case.
Cao's splitting theorem says that for any complete Kähler-Ricci flow $(M,g(t))$ with $t\in [0,T)$, $M$ simply connected and nonnegative bounded holomorphic bisectional curvature, $(M,g(t))$ is holomorphically isometric to $\C^k\times (N,h(t))$ where $(N,h(t))$ is a Kahler-Ricci flow with positive Ricci curvature for $t>0$. In this article, we show that $k=n-r$ where $r$ is the Ricci rank of the initial metric. As a corollary, we also confirm a splitting conjecture of Wu-Zheng when curvature is assumed to be bounded.
In this work, we will verify some comparison results on Kahler manifolds. They are complex Hessian comparison for the distance function from a closed complex submanifold of a Kahler manifold with holomorphic bisectional curvature bounded below by a constant, eigenvalue comparison and volume comparison in terms of scalar curvature. This work is motivated by comparison results of Li and Wang .
In this article, we prove a Liouville property of holomorphic maps from a complete Kahler manifold with nonnegative holomorphic bisectional curvature to a complete simply connected Kahler manifold with a certain assumption on the sectional curvature.
In this article, we classify all the Hermitian metrics on a complex product manifold with nonpositive holomorphic bisectional curvature. It is a generalization of a result by Zheng.
Let $M=X\times Y$ be the product of two complex manifolds of positive dimensions. In this paper, we prove that there is no complete Kähler metric $g$ on $M$ such that: either (i) the holomorphic bisectional curvature of $g$ is bounded by a negative constant and the Ricci curvature is bounded below by $-C(1+r^2)$ where $r$ is the distance from a fixed point; or (ii) $g$ has nonpositive sectional curvature and the holomorphic bisectional curvature is bounded above by $-B(1+r^2)^{-δ}$ and the Ricci curvature is bounded below by $-A(1+r^2)^γ$ where $A, B, γ, δ$ are positive constants with $γ+2δ<1$. These are generalizations of some previous results, in particular the result of Seshadri and Zheng.
In this article we get a time-dependent Sobolev inequality along the Ricci flow which generalizes the earlier results of Zhang, Ye, Hsu. As an application of the time-dependent Sobolev inequality, we also get a growth of the ratio of bob-collapsing along the Ricci flow.
Let $g(t)$ with $t\in [0,T)$ be a complete solution to the Kaehler-Ricci flow: $\frac{d}{dt}g_{i\bar j}=-R_{i\bar j}$ where $T$ may be $\infty$. In this article, we show that the curvatures of $g(t)$ is uniformly bounded if the solution $g(t)$ is uniformly equivalet. This result is stronger than the main result in Šešum \cite{sesum} within the category of Kähler-Ricci flow.
