We introduce the concept of negative coefficients in various number-based systems, with a focus on decimal and binary systems. We demonstrate that every binary number can be transformed into a sparse form, significantly enhancing computational speed by converting binary numbers into this form.
This is the first part of our research on certain sharp Hardy-Sobolev inequalities and the related elliptic equations. In this part we shall establish some sharp weighted Hardy-Sobolev inequalities whose weights are distance functions to the boundary.
In this paper we classify all positive extremal functions to a sharp weighted Sobolev inequality on the upper half space, which involves divergent operators with degeneracy on the boundary. As an application of the results, we can derive a sharp Sobolev type inequality involving Baouendi-Grushin operator, and classify certain extremal functions for all $τ>0$ and $m\ne2 $ or $ n\ne1$.
In this paper we shall classify all positive solutions of $ Δu =a u^p$ on the upper half space $ H =\Bbb{R}_+^n$ with nonlinear boundary condition $ {\partial u}/{\partial t}= - b u^q $ on $\partial H$ for both positive parameters $a, \ b>0$. We will prove that for $p \ge {(n+2)}/{(n-2)}, 1\leq q<{n}/{(n-2)}$ (and $n \ge 3$) all positive solutions are functions of last variable; for $p= {(n+2)}/{(n-2)}, q= {n}/{(n-2)}$ (and $n \ge 3$) positive solutions must be either some functions depending only on last variable, or radially symmetric functions.
This is the continuation of our previous work [5], where we introduced and studied some nonlinear integral equations on bounded domains that are related to the sharp Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality. In this paper, we introduce some nonlinear integral equations on bounded domains that are related to the sharp reversed Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality. These are integral equations with nonlinear term involving negative exponents. Existence results as well as nonexistence results are obtained.
In this paper we shall establish some Liouville theorems for solutions bounded from below to certain linear elliptic equations on the upper half space. In particular, we show that for $a \in (0, 1)$ constants are the only $C^1$ up to the boundary positive solutions to $div(x_n^a \nabla u)=0$ on the upper half space.
In this paper we study a sharp Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev (HLS) type inequality with Riesz potential on bounded smooth domains. We obtain the inequality for a general bounded domain $Ω$ and show that if the extension constant for $Ω$ is strictly larger than the extension constant for the unit ball $B_1$ then extremal functions exist. Using suitable test functions we show that this criterion is satisfied by an annular domain whose hole is sufficiently small. The construction of the test functions is not based on any positive mass type theorems, neither on the nonflatness of the boundary. By using a similar choice of test functions with the Poisson-kernel-based extension operator we prove the existence of an abstract domain having zero scalar curvature and strictly larger isoperimetric constant than that of the Euclidean ball.
In this paper we establish the reversed sharp Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev (HLS for short) inequality on the upper half space and obtain a new HLS type integral inequality on the upper half space (extending an inequality found by Hang, Wang and Yan in \cite{HWY2008}) by introducing a uniform approach. The extremal functions are classified via the method of moving spheres, and the best constants are computed. The new approach can also be applied to obtain the classical HLS inequality and other similar inequalities.
In this paper we formulate new curvature functions on $\mathbb{S}^n$ via integral operators. For certain even orders, these curvature functions are equivalent to the classic curvature functions defined via differential operators, but not for all even orders. Existence result for antipodally symmetric prescribed curvature functions on $\mathbb{S}^n$ is obtained. As a corollary, the existence of a conformal metric for an antipodally symmetric prescribed $Q-$curvature functions on $\mathbb{S}^3$ is proved. Curvature function on general compact manifold as well as the conformal covariance property for the corresponding integral operator are also addressed, and a general Yamabe type problem is proposed.
In this paper we extend Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequalities on compact Riemannian manifolds for dimension $n\ne 2$. As one application, we solve a generalized Yamabe problem on locally conforamlly flat manifolds via a new designed energy functional and a new variational approach. Even for the classic Yamabe problem on locally conformally flat manifolds, our approach provides a new and relatively simpler solution.
The classical sharp Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality states that, for $1 0$, such that $$ |\int_{\mathbb{R}^n} \int_{\mathbb{R}^n} f(x)|x-y|^{-λ} g(y) dx dy|\le N(n,λ,p)||f||_{L^p(\mathbb{R}^n)}||g||_{L^t(\mathbb{R}^n)} $$ holds for all $f\in L^p(\mathbb{R}^n), g\in L^t(\mathbb{R}^n).$ The sharp form is due to Lieb, who proved the existence of the extremal functions to the inequality with sharp constant, and computed the best constant in the case of $p=t$ (or one of them is 2). Except that the case for $p\in ((n-1)/n, n/α)$ (thus $α$ may be greater than $n$) was considered by Stein and Weiss in 1960, there is no other result for $α>n$. In this paper, we prove that the reversed Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality for $0<p, t<1$, $λ<0$ holds for all nonnegative $f\in L^p(\mathbb{R}^n), g\in L^t(\mathbb{R}^n).$ For $p=t$, the existence of extremal functions is proved, all extremal functions are classified via the method of moving sphere, and the best constant is computed.
There are at least two directions concerning the extension of classical sharp Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality: (1) Extending the sharp inequality on general manifolds; (2) Extending it for the negative exponent $λ=n-α$ (that is for the case of $α>n$). In this paper we confirm the possibility for the extension along the first direction by establishing the sharp Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality on the upper half space (which is conformally equivalent to a ball). The existences of extremal functions are obtained; And for certain range of the exponent, we classify all extremal functions via the method of moving sphere.
We exam various geometric active contour methods for radar image segmentation. Due to special properties of radar images, we propose our new model based on modified Chan-Vese functional. Our method is efficient in separating non-meteorological noises from meteorological images.
In this paper we continue our studies of the one dimensional conformal metric flows, which were introduced in [8]. In this part we mainly focus on evolution equations involving fourth order derivatives. The global existence and exponential convergence of metrics for the 1-Q and 4-Q flows are obtained.
In this paper we shall give an analytic proof of the fact that the Liouville energy on a topological two sphere is bounded from below. Our proof does not rely on the uniformization theorem and the Onofri inequality, thus it is essentially needed in the alternative proof of the uniformization theorem via the Calabi flow. Such an analytic approach also sheds light on how to obtain the boundedness for E_1 energy in the study of general Kähler manifolds.
We establish an analog Hardy inequality with sharp constant involving exponential weight function. The special case of this inequality (for n=2) leads to a direct proof of Onofri inequality on S^2.
We define two conformal structures on $S^1$ which give rise to a different view of the affine curvature flow and a new curvature flow, the ``$Q$-curvature flow". The steady state of these flows are studied. More specifically, we prove four sharp inequalities, which state the existences of the corresponding extremal metrics.
This is the second paper of our series of papers on one dimensional conformal metric flows. In this paper we continue our studies of the one dimensional conformal metric flows, which were introduced in math.AP/0611254. We prove the global existence and convergence of the one dimensional Yamabe and affine flows. Furthermore, we obtain exponential convergence of the metrics under these flows.
