The paper proves a conjecture about positivity preserving in Riemannian manifolds.

Solves Brezis' first open problem on ball solutions.

Study on a Bahri-Brezis problem on hyperbolic manifolds.

We prove a conjecture saying that complex projective space has maximal volume (degree) among all toric Kaehler-Einstein manifolds of dimension n. The proof is inspired by our recent work on sharp Moser-Trudinger and Brezis-Merle type inequalities for the complex Monge-Ampere operator, but is essentially self-contained.

Brezis' open problem on harmonic maps resolved

Solves a problem posed by Brezis and Mironescu about least mass of area-minimizing currents.

In this work, we develop a study involving some nonlinear partial differential equations on spheres and hemispheres, with the zero Neumann boundary condition, which are so-called Brezis-Nirenberg type problems, and we give conditions on which such equations have only constant solutions. We also extend these results for…

Let M be a globally Riemannian symmetric space. We prove a duality estimate between pairings of vector fields with divergence zero and and in L^1 with vector fields in a critical Sobolev space on M. As a consequence we get a sharp Calderon-Zygmund estimate for solutions to Poisson's equation on M, where the right side …

Characterizes when differential forms have weak exterior derivatives based on limiting behavior of integration over simplices.

In this paper, we prove Poincaré and Sobolev inequalities for differential forms in $L^1(\mathbb R^n)$. The singular integral estimates that it is possible to use for $L^p$, $p>1$, are replaced here with inequalities which go back to Bourgain-Brezis.

Constructs new connections with finite energy in 4D, preserving gauge equivalence and curvature properties.

In this paper, we study the sharp constants of quantitative Hardy and Rellich inequalities on nonreversible Finsler manifolds equipped with arbitrary measures. In particular, these inequalities can be globally refined by adding remainder terms like the Brezis-Vázquez improvement, if Finsler manifolds are of strictly ne…

In this paper, we prove interior Poincar{é} and Sobolev inequalities in Euclidean spaces and in Heisenberg groups, in the limiting case where the exterior (resp. Rumin) differential of a differential form is measured in L 1 norm. Unlike for L p , p > 1, the estimates are doomed to fail in top degree. The singular integ…

Given a smooth bounded domain $Ø\subseteq \R^2$, we consider the equation $\D v = 2 v_x \wedge v_y$ in $Ø$, where $v: Ø\to \R^3$. We prescribe Dirichlet boundary datum, and consider the case in which this datum converges to zero. An asymptotic study of the corresponding Euler functional is performed, analyzing multiple…

In this paper, we study Vanishing Mean Oscillation vector fields on a compact manifold with boundary. Inspired by the work of Brezis and Niremberg, we construct a topological invariant - the index - for such fields, and establish the analogue of Morse's formula. As a consequence, we characterize the set of boundary dat…

Let $(M,\textit{g},σ)$ be a compact Riemannian spin manifold of dimension $m\geq2$, let $\mathbb{S}(M)$ denote the spinor bundle on $M$, and let $D$ be the Atiyah-Singer Dirac operator acting on spinors $ψ:M\to\mathbb{S}(M)$. We study the existence of solutions of the nonlinear Dirac equation with critical exponent \[ …

Study Hardy identities and inequalities on Cartan-Hadamard manifolds.

The L 1-Sobolev inequality states that the L n/(n--1)-norm of a compactly supported function on Euclidean n-space is controlled by the L 1-norm of its gradient. The generalization to differential forms (due to Lanzani & Stein and Bourgain & Brezis) is recent, and states that a the L n/(n--1)-norm of a compactly support…

The paper is devoted to weighted $L^p$-Hardy inequalities with best constants on Finsler metric measure manifolds. There are two major ingredients. The first, which is the main part of this paper, is the Hardy inequalities concerned with distance functions in the Finsler setting. In this case, we find that besides the …

New local method solves Yamabe problems on compact and non-compact manifolds.

We prove Aubin's "Hypothese fondamentale" concerning the existence of Moser-Trudinger type inequalities on any integral compact Kähler manifold X. In the case of the anti-canonical class on a Fano manifold the constants in the inequalities are shown to only depend on the dimension of X (but there are counterexamples to…

Study of Dirac equation with non-local nonlinearity on spheres.

In this thesis we deal with two different classes of variational problems: 1) the problem of closed curves with prescribed curvature, or $H$-loop problem; 2) the study of the nodal solutions of the fractional Brezis-Nirenberg problem. In both cases we deal with nonlinear equations (an ODE system for problem 1, and an e…

The paper studies how adding a 'Gauge Mass' term breaks gauge symmetry in Yang-Mills-Higgs systems and analyzes the resulting behavior.

The Kazdan-Warner problem is solved for Riemann surfaces with smooth boundaries.

In this note, we study properties of the gradient map of the isoparametric polynomial. For a given isoparametric hypersurface in sphere, we calculate explicitly the gradient map of its isoparametric polynomial which turns out many interesting phenomenons and applications. We find that it should map not only the focal s…

Defines renormalised energies for singular harmonic maps into compact manifolds.

In this paper we study asymptotic behavior of $n$-superharmonic functions at isolated singularity using the Wolff potential and $n$-capacity estimates in nonlinear potential theory. Our results are inspired by and extend those of Arsove-Huber and Taliaferro in 2 dimensions. To study $n$-superharmonic functions we use a…

Survey on two non-Kähler geometry conjectures.

Numerical study confirms Brennan's conjecture for a counterexample to Thurston's $K=2$ conjecture.

In this paper we perform a blow-up and quantization analysis of the fractional Liouville equation in dimension $1$. More precisely, given a sequence $u_k :\mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}$ of solutions to \begin{equation} (-Δ)^\frac{1}{2} u_k =K_ke^{u_k}\quad \text{in }\mathbb{R}, \end{equation} with $K_k$ bounded in $L^\inft…

The non-vanishing conjecture implies the abundance conjecture in certain cases.

Proves Gromov's conjecture and answers Stoker's polyhedron conjecture.

This paper gives an algebraic conjecture which is shown to be equivalent to Thurston's Geometrization Conjecture for closed, orientable 3-manifolds. It generalizes the Stallings-Jaco theorem which established a similar result for the Poincare Conjecture. The paper also gives two other algebraic conjectures; one is equi…

Extends Toda system existence results to negative functions.

Symmetry-breaking in three differential geometry conjectures.

We introduce a new variant of the coarse Baum-Connes conjecture designed to tackle coarsely disconnected metric spaces called the boundary coarse Baum-Connes conjecture. We prove this conjecture for many coarsely disconnected spaces that are known to be counterexamples to the coarse Baum-Connes conjecture. In particula…

New proof shows most thin knots satisfy Cabling Conjecture.

We review the Burghelea conjecture, which constitutes a full computation of the periodic cyclic homology of complex group rings, and its relation to the algebraic Baum-Connes conjecture. The Burghelea conjecture implies the Bass conjecture. We state two conjectures about groups of finite asymptotic dimension, which tog…
