Liouville domains have become central objects in symplectic and contact geometry. However, the auxiliary data they involve --- namely, Liouville forms --- and the non-compactness of their completions generate some inconvenience. The notion of ideal Liouville domains is designed to suppress these awkward aspects and to …

The present paper unifies some aspects concerning the vertical Liouville distributions on the tangent (cotangent) bundle of a Finsler (Cartan) space in the context of generalized geometry. More exactly, we consider the big-tangent manifold $\mathcal{T}M$ associated to a Finsler space $(M,F)$ and of its $\mathcal{L}$-du…

In the present paper we prove Liouville-type theorems: non-existence theorems for conformal mappings of complete Riemannian manifolds. In addition, we give an application of these results to the theory of conharmonic transformations. A part of these results was announced in our reports on the conferences "Differential …

Study of sectorial decompositions in symmetric products of surfaces for symplectic geometry.

We study the wave analog of the Liouville equation and the constant mean curvature equations in 2 space dimensions, which are energy critical. We exhibit a blow-up criteria for the former using tools from conformal geometry, and we exhibit finite time blow-up for the latter under suitable assumptions on the initial dat…

We present the linearized metrizability problem in the context of parabolic geometries and subriemannian geometry, generalizing the metrizability problem in projective geometry studied by R. Liouville in 1889. We give a general method for linearizability and a classification of all cases with irreducible defining distr…

In this paper we generalize the main notions from the geometry of (almost) contact manifolds in the category of Lie algebroids. Also, using the framework of generalized geometry, we obtain an (almost) contact Riemannian Lie algebroid structure on a vertical Liouville distribution over the big-tangent manifold of a Riem…

The paper connects currents and entropy in hyperbolic 3-manifolds.

We review the construction of homological evolutionary vector fields on infinite jet spaces and partial differential equations. We describe the applications of this concept in three tightly inter-related domains: the variational Poisson formalism (e.g., for equations of Korteweg-de Vries type), geometry of Liouville-ty…

On a complete Riemannian manifold M with Ricci curvature satisfying $\textrm{Ric}(\nabla r,\nabla r) \geq -Ar^2(\log r)^2(\log(\log r))^2...(\log^{k}r)^2$ for $r\gg 1$, where A>0 is a constant, and r is the distance from an arbitrarily fixed point in M. we prove some Liouville-type theorems for a C^2 function $f:M\ri…

We study entire continuous viscosity solutions to fully nonlinear elliptic equations involving the conformal Hessian. We prove the strong comparison principle and Hopf Lemma for (non-uniformly) elliptic equations when one of the competitors is $C^{1,1}$. We obtain as a consequence a Liouville theorem for entire solutio…

We study a generalized functional related to the pullback metrics (3). We derive the first variation formula which yield stationary maps. We introduce the stress-energy tensor which is naturally linked to conservation law and yield monotonicity formula via the coarea formula and comparison theorem in Riemannian geometr…

Study of Lagrangian submanifolds with Riemannian bounds and their metric properties.

Krasnov (arXiv: hep-th/0005106) identified the renormalized volume of a Schottky 3-manifold with the action of the Liouville theory on the conformal infiinity. We try to compute the renormalized volume in terms of more transparent geometric quantities.

Extends integrability to cosymplectic manifolds.

Using the reviewed Riemann-Liouville fractional derivative we introduce the fractional osculator Lagrange space of k order and the main structures on it. The results are applied at the k order fractional prolongation of Lagrange, Finsler and Riemann fractional structures.

We consider a complete noncompact smooth metric measure space $(M^n,g,e^{-f} dv)$ and the associated drifting Laplacian. We find sufficient conditions on the geometry of the space so that every nonnegative $f$-subharmonic function with bounded weighted $L^1$ norm is constant.

Plane triangulations remain rigid under discrete conformal changes.

The paper explores the $L^1$-Liouville property on graphs and its connections to stochastic completeness.

We relate the existence of many infinite geodesics on Alexandrov spaces to a statement about the average growth of volumes of balls. We deduce that the geodesic flow exists and preserves the Liouville measure in several important cases. The developed analytic tool has close ties to integral geometry.

On the slit tangent manifold $TM^0$ of a Finsler space $(M,F)$ there are given some natural foliations as vertical foliation and some other fundamental foliations produced by the vertical and horizontal Liouville vector fields, see [A. Bejancu, H. R. Farran, Finsler Geometry and Natural Foliations on the Tangent Bundle…

We give exposition of a Liouville theorem established in \cite{Li3} which is a novel extension of the classical Liouville theorem for harmonic functions. To illustrate some ideas of the proof of the Liouville theorem, we present a new proof of the classical Liouville theorem for harmonic functions. Applications of the …

Study explores Liouville's theorem and SLP for harmonic functions on cones and surfaces.

We construct a path integral based on the coupling of the Liouville action and the Mabuchi K-energy on a one-dimensional complex manifold. To the best of our knowledge this is the first rigorous construction of such an object and this is done by means of probabilistic tools. Both functionals play an important role resp…

Equal diagonal energies proven on Liouville surfaces.

We observe that, in dimension four, symplectic forms may be obtained via Lorentzian geometry; in particular, null vector fields can give rise to exact symplectic forms. That a null vector field is nowhere vanishing yet orthogonal to itself is essential to this construction. Specifically, we show that on a Lorentzian 4-…

Geometric study of thermodynamics using cotangent bundles.

A 'Liouville structure' is a structure isomorphic to a cotangent vector fibration. A Liouville structure is an essential ingredient of every variational formulation of a physical theory. For reasons of interpretation the Liouville structure can not be replaced by the corresponding cotangent fibration. We give a precise…
