Holomorphic solutions vary in Sobolev spaces for Beltrami equations.

In this article it is shown that the study of harmonic diffeomorphisms, with nonvanishing Hopf differential, reduces to the study of the Beltrami equation of a certain type: the imaginary part of the logarithm of the Beltrami function coincides with the imaginary part of the logarithm of the Hopf differential, therefor…

An essentially unique homeomorphic solution to the Beltrami equation was found in the 1960s using the theory of Calderón-Zygmund and singular integral operators in $L^p(\mathbb C)$. We will present an alternative method to solve the Beltrami equation using the Hodge star operator and standard elliptic PDE theory. We wi…

The paper extends a method for numerical conformal mappings to surfaces using Laplace-Beltrami equations.

Using the symmetry properties of two-dmensional sigma models, we introduce a notion of the Beltrami-Courant differential, so that there is a natural homotopy Gerstenhaber algebra related to it. We conjecture that the generalized Maurer-Cartan equation for the corresponding $L_{\infty}$ subalgebra gives solutions to the…

Non-vanishing steady Euler flows and Beltrami fields found in high dimensions.

The Laplace-Beltrami operator (LBO) is a fundamental object associated to Riemannian manifolds, which encodes all intrinsic geometry of the manifolds and has many desirable properties. Recently, we proposed a novel numerical method, Point Integral method (PIM), to discretize the Laplace-Beltrami operator on point cloud…

A 3-dimensional vector field $B$ is said to be Beltrami vector field (force free-magnetic vector field in physics), if $B\times(\nabla\times B)=0$. Motivated by our investigations on projective an polynomial superflows, and as an important side result, in the first paper on this topic we constructed two unique Beltrami…

GNPs learn operators on non-Euclidean geometries using neural networks.

Extremal spectral properties of Lawson tau-surfaces are investigated. The Lawson tau-surfaces form a two-parametric family of tori or Klein bottles minimally immersed in the standard unitary three-dimensional sphere. A Lawson tau-surface carries an extremal metric for some eigenvalue of the Laplace-Beltrami operator. U…

Unified geometric framework for Brownian motion on various manifolds.

We consider the eigenvalue equation for the Laplace-Beltrami operator acting on scalar functions on the non-compact Eguchi-Hanson space. The corresponding differential equation is reducible to a confluent Heun equation with Ince symbol [0,2,1_2]. We construct approximations for the eigenfunctions and their asymptotic s…

We introduce a general notion of twistorial map and classify twistorial harmonic morphisms with one-dimensional fibres from self-dual four-manifolds. Such maps can be characterised as those which pull back Abelian monopoles to self-dual connections. In fact, the constructions involve solving a generalised monopole equa…

We study the conformal plate buckling equation (Laplace--Beltrami)^2 u =1, where the L-B operator is for the metric g = e^{2u}g_0, with $g_0$ the standard Euclidean metric on R^2. This conformal elliptic PDE of fourth order is equivalent to the nonlinear system of elliptic PDEs of second order, Delta u +K_g e^(2u)=0, D…

Surface parameterizations and registrations are important in computer graphics and imaging, where 1-1 correspondences between meshes are computed. In practice, surface maps are usually represented and stored as 3D coordinates each vertex is mapped to, which often requires lots of storage memory. This causes inconvenien…

We employ the relationship between contact structures and Beltrami fields derived in part I of this series to construct steady nonsingular solutions to the Euler equations on a Riemannian $S^3$ whose flowlines trace out closed curves of all possible knot and link types simultaneously. Using careful contact-topological …

We use Beltrami's theorem as an excuse to present some arguments from parabolic differential geometry without any of the parabolic machinery.

In this paper, we construct Laplace-Beltrami operators associated with arbitrary Riemannian metrics on noncommutative tori of any dimension. These operators enjoy the main properties of the Laplace-Beltrami operators on ordinary Riemannian manifolds. The construction takes into account the non-triviality of the group o…

We present a new proof of a Finslerian version of Beltrami's theorem (1865) which works also in dimension 2.

Eigenvalue estimates for Beltrami-Laplacian under specific curvature conditions.

We prove certain localized and global differential Harnack inequality for all positive solutions to the geometric conjugate heat equation coupled to the forward in time Ricci flow. In this case, the diffusion operator is perturbed with the curvature operator, precisely, the Laplace-Beltrami operator is replaced with "$…

Due to the isotropy $d$-dimensional hyperbolic space, there exist a spherically symmetric fundamental solution for its corresponding Laplace-Beltrami operator. On the $R$-radius hyperboloid model of $d$-dimensional hyperbolic geometry with $R>0$ and $d\ge 2$, we compute azimuthal Fourier expansions for a fundamental so…

In this paper, we investigate the first eigenvalues of two closed eigenvalue problems of the bi-Beltrami-Laplacian on minimal embedded isoparametric hypersurface in the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n+1}(1)$. Although many mathematicians want to derive the corresponding results for the first eigenvalues of bi-Beltrami-Lapla…

The two main topics of this text are as follows: Firstly, three modifications of the theorem of Beltrami will be presented for diffeomorphisms between Riemannian manifolds and a space form which preserve the geodesic circles, the geodesic hyperspheres, or the minimal surfaces, respectively. Secondly, it is defined what…

A vector field is called a Beltrami vector field, if $B\times(\nabla\times B)=0$. In this paper we construct two unique Beltrami vector fields $\mathfrak{I}$ and $\mathfrak{Y}$, such that $\nabla\times\mathfrak{I}=\mathfrak{I}$, $\nabla\times\mathfrak{Y}=\mathfrak{Y}$, and such that both have an orientation-preserving …

We consider the question raised by Enciso and Peralta-Salas in [4] (see arXiv:1402.6825): What nonconstant functions $f$ can occur as the proportionality factor for a Beltrami field $\mathbf{u}$ on an open subset $U \subset \mathbb{R}^3$? We also consider the related question: For any such $f$, how large is the space o…

In this paper, classical isometric helicoidal and rotational surfaces are studied, and generalized by Bour's theorem in three dimensional Euclidean space. Moreover, the third Laplace-Beltrami operators of two classical surfaces are obtained.

The Schroedinger operators on the Newtonian space-time are defined in a way which make them independent on the class of inertial observers. In this picture the Schroedinger operators act not on functions on the space-time but on sections of certain one-dimensional complex vector bundle -- the Schroedinger line bundle. …

We show that eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on a Riemannian manifold are approximated by eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a (suitably weighted) graph Laplace operator of a proximity graph on an epsilon-net.

Let $Ł$ be the Laplace operator on $\R ^d$, $d\geq 3$ or the Laplace Beltrami operator on the harmonic $NA$ group (in particular on a rank one noncompact symmetric space). For the equation $Łu - \varphi(\cdot,u)=0$ we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of entire bounded or large solutions under…
