We study the relation between Sobolev inequalities for differential forms on a Riemannian manifold (M,g) and the Lq,p-cohomology of that manifold. The Lq,p-cohomology of (M,g) is defined to be the quotient of the space of closed differential ...
We prove the Finsler analog of the conformal Lichnerowicz-Obata conjecture showing that a complete and essential conformal vector field on a non-Riemannian Finsler manifold is a homothetic vector field of a Minkowski metric. ...
We propose here some basic approaches to direct processing of the 360o-images as we take into consideration the geometry of each one. Obviously, the geometry of each of these images is a consequence of the geometry of the sensor's mirror used. This tech ...
We analyse volume-preserving actions of product groups on Riemannian manifolds. Under a natural spectral irreducibility assumption, we prove the following dichotomy: Either the action is measurably isometric, in which case there are at most two factors; or ...
Summary: We present a method based on an optimal control technique for numerical computations of geodesic paths between two fixed points of a Riemannian manifold under the assumption of existence. In this method, the control variable is the tangent vector ...
The real homology of a compact Riemannian manifold M is naturally endowed with the stable norm. The stable norm on H-1 (M. R) arises from the Riemannian length functional by homogenization. It is difficult and interesting to decide which norms on the finit ...
The aim of this dissertation is to solve numerically the following problem, denoted by P : given a Riemannian manifold and two points a and b belonging to that manifold, find a tangent vector T at a, such that expa(T) = b, assuming that T exists. This prob ...
The subject of this thesis lies in the intersection of differential geometry and functional analysis, a domain usually called global analysis. A central object in this work is the group Ds(M) of all orientation preserving diffeomorphisms of a compact manif ...
We consider the L_{q,p}-cohomology of a complete simply connected Riemannian manifold (M,g) with pinched negative curvature. The connection between the L_{q,p}-cohomology of (M,g) and Sobolev inequalities for differential forms on (M,g) was established by ...
In this technical report the Discrete Wavelet Frames are build on the already existing Spherical Continuous Wavelet Transform. The spherical half-continuous frames are explored, i.e when the position on the sphere is kept continuous variable. Then, the con ...
