A topological lower bound for the energy of a unit vector field on a closed Euclidean hypersurface
Fabiano G. B. Brito, Icaro Gonçalves, Adriana V. Nicoli
For a unit vector field on a closed immersed Euclidean hypersurface , , we exhibit a nontrivial lower bound for its energy which depends on the degree of the Gau…
