New inequality shows energy growth and decay in geometric problems.

Under a spectral assumption on the Laplacian of a Poincaré--Einstein manifold, we establish an energy inequality relating the energy of a fractional GJMS operator of order $2γ\in(0,2)$ or $2γ\in(2,4)$ and the energy of the weighted conformal Laplacian or weighted Paneitz operator, respectively. This spectral assumption…

We apply our abstract gradient inequalities developed by the authors in arXiv:1510.03817 to prove Lojasiewicz--Simon gradient inequalities for the harmonic map energy function using Sobolev spaces which impose minimal regularity requirements on maps between closed, Riemannian manifolds. Our Lojasiewicz--Simon gradient …

The fundamental properties of $J$-holomorphic maps depend on two inequalities: The gradient inequality gives a pointwise bound on the differential of a $J$-holomorphic map in terms of its energy. The cylinder inequality stipulates and quantifies the exponential decay of energy along cylinders of small total energy. We …

The paper proves a reverse isoperimetric inequality and applies it to analyze surface flows.

A universal geometric inequality for bodies relating energy, size, angular momentum, and charge is naturally implied by Bekenstein's entropy bounds. We establish versions of this inequality for axisymmetric bodies satisfying appropriate energy conditions, thus lending credence to the most general form of Bekenstein's b…

In this sequel to arXiv:1510.03817, we apply our abstract Lojasiewicz-Simon gradient inequality to prove Lojasiewicz-Simon gradient inequalities for coupled Yang-Mills energy functions using Sobolev spaces which impose minimal regularity requirements on pairs of connections and sections.

We give a unified statement and proof of a class of wellknown mean value inequalities for nonnegative functions with a nonlinear bound on the Laplacian. We generalize these to domains with boundary, requiring a (possibly nonlinear) bound on the normal derivative at the boundary. These inequalities give rise to an energ…

The positive mass theorem is one of the fundamental results in general relativity. It states that, assuming the dominant energy condition, the total mass of an asymptotically flat spacetime is non-negative. The Penrose inequality provides a lower bound on mass by the area of the black hole and is closely related to the…

We consider a vector bundle $E$ over a compact Riemannian manifold $M$=$M^{n}$,$n\geq 4$,and $A$ is a Yang-Mills connection with $L^{\frac{n}{2}}$ curvature $F_{A}$ on $E$.Then we prove a mean value inequality for the density $|F_{A}|^{\frac{n}{2}}$.This inequality give rise to an energy concentrate principle for seque…

We establish the inequality for Henneaux-Teitelboim's total energy-momentum for asymptotically anti-de Sitter initial data sets which are asymptotic to arbitrary $t$-slice in anti-de Sitter spacetime. In particular, when $t=0$, it generalizes Chruściel-Maerten-Tod's inequality in the center of AdS mass coordinates. We …

Motivated by the equation satisfied by the extremals of certain Hardy-Sobolev type inequalities, we show sharp $L^q$ regularity for finite energy solutions of p-laplace equations involving critical exponents and possible singularity on a sub-space of $\mathbb{R}^n$, which imply asymptotic behavior of the solutions at i…

We consider an asymptotically flat Lorentzian manifold of dimension (1,3). An inequality is derived which bounds the Riemannian curvature tensor in terms of the ADM energy in the general case with second fundamental form. The inequality quantifies in which sense the Lorentzian manifold becomes flat in the limit when th…

The study proves a new positive energy theorem for manifolds with specific curvature properties.

An action selector associates, in a suitable way, to each compactly supported Hamiltonian on a symplectic manifold an action value of the Hamiltonian. Action selectors are known to exist for a broad class of symplectic manifolds. We show how the existence of an action selector leads to sharp energy capacity inequalitie…

We consider localized deformation for initial data sets of the Einstein field equations with the dominant energy condition. Deformation results with the weak inequality need to be handled delicately. We introduce a modified constraint operator to absorb the first order change of the metric in the dominant energy condit…
