Connected sum of manifolds with spectral Ricci lower bounds

Gioacchino Antonelli, Kai Xu

Let $n > 2$ , $I^^{3} > \frac{n - 1}{n - 2}$ , and $I^» \in R$ . We prove that if $M$ and $N$ are two smooth $n$ -manifolds that admit a complete Riemannian metric satisfying \[-Î³Î+ \m…

New spectral Bishop-Gromov and Bonnet-Myers theorems and applications to isoperimetry

Gioacchino Antonelli, Kai Xu

We show a sharp and rigid spectral generalization of the classical Bishop--Gromov volume comparison theorem: if a closed Riemannian manifold $(M, g)$ of dimension $n \geq 3$ satisfies…

Infinity-harmonic functions and inverse mean curvature flow clusters

Kai Xu

An $\infty$ -harmonic function is a viscosity solution of $\nabla^{2} u (\nabla u, \nabla u) = 0$ , or equivalently, an absolute minimizer of $∥\nabla u ∥_{L^{\infty}}$ . We prove a variety…

Inverse mean curvature flow with outer obstacle

Kai Xu

We develop a new boundary condition for the weak inverse mean curvature flow, which gives canonical and non-trivial solutions in bounded domains. Roughly speaking, the boundary of…

Proper solutions of the $1/ H$ -flow and the Green kernel of the $p$ -Laplacian

Luca Benatti, Luciano Mari, Marco Rigoli +2

We show existence and optimal growth estimate for the weak inverse mean curvature flow issuing from a point, on manifolds with certain curvature and isoperimetric conditions. These…

A sharp spectral splitting theorem

Gioacchino Antonelli, Marco Pozzetta, Kai Xu

We prove a sharp spectral generalization of the Cheeger--Gromoll splitting theorem. We show that if a complete non-compact Riemannian manifold $M$ of dimension $n \geq 2$ has at lea…
