Brunn--Minkowski Inequality for the First Complex $σ_{2}$-Hessian Eigenvalue

There are relatively few results on the convexity of solutions to complex equations. In this paper, We prove a strict real log-concavity theorem for the first eigenfunction of the complex $σ_{2}$-Hessian operator on smooth, bounded, real uniformly strictly convex domains in $\mathbb{C}^{n}$. As an application, we obtain a Brunn--Minkowski inequality for the first complex $σ_{2}$-Hessian eigenvalue. The proof combines a Bian--Guan constant-rank argument, a new inverse-convexity lemma for the compressed real Hessian, and Salani's viscosity admissible-test-function method.

The Neumann Problem for Parabolic Hessian Quotient Equations

In this paper, we consider the Neumann problem for parabolic Hessian quotient equations. We show that the $k$-admissible solution of the parabolic Hessian quotient equation exists for all time and converges to the smooth solution of elliptic Hessian quotient equations. Also the solutions of the classical Neumann problem converge to a translating solution.

On space-time quasiconcave solutions of the heat equation

In this paper we first obtain a constant rank theorem for the second fundamental form of the space-time level sets of a space-time quasiconcave solution of the heat equation. Utilizing this constant rank theorem, we can obtain some strictly convexity results of the spatial and space-time level sets of the space-time quasiconcave solution of the heat equation in a convex ring. To explain our ideas and for completeness, we also review the constant rank theorem technique for the space-time Hessian of space-time convex solution of heat equation and for the second fundamental form of the convex level sets for harmonic function.

A fully-nonlinear flow and quermassintegral inequalities in the sphere

This expository paper presents the current knowledge of particular fully nonlinear curvature flows with local forcing term, so-called locally constrained curvature flows. We focus on the spherical ambient space. The flows are designed to preserve a quermassintegral and to de-/increase the other quermassintegrals. The convergence of this flow to a round sphere would settle the full set of quermassintegral inequalities for convex domains of the sphere, but a full proof is still missing. Here we collect what is known and hope to attract wide attention to this interesting problem.

The Neumann problem of Hessian quotient equations

In this paper, we obtain some important inequalities of Hessian quotient operators, and global $C^2$ estimates of the Neumann problem of Hessian quotient equations. By the method of continuity, we establish the existence theorem of $k$-admissible solutions of the Neumann problem of Hessian quotient equations.

On the microscopic spacetime convexity principle of fully nonlinear parabolic equations II: Spacetime quasiconcave solutions

In \cite{CMS}, Chen-Ma-Salani established the strict convexity of spacetime level sets of solutions to heat equation in convex rings, using the constant rank theorem and a deformation method. In this paper, we generalize the constant rank theorem in \cite{CMS} to fully nonlinear parabolic equations, that is, establish the corresponding microscopic spacetime convexity principles of spacetime level sets. In fact, the results hold for fully nonlinear parabolic equations under a general structural condition, including the $p$-Laplacian parabolic equations ($p >1$) and some mean curvature type parabolic equations.

A Minimal Value Problem and the Prescribed $σ_2$ Curvature Measure Problem

In this paper, we consider a minimal value problem and obtain an algebraic inequality. As an application, we prove the $C^2$ a priori estimate for a class of prescribed $σ_2$ curvature measure equations, which generalizes the results of the $σ_2$ case in Guan-Li-Li\cite{GLL11} by a different method.
