In this paper, we study a generalized gradient flow of anisoperimetric ratio, whose inner normal velocity contains a power of anisotropic curvature for convex closed curves. It is shown that for any embedded smooth closed convex initial curve, the flow exists globally and the curvature of evolving curves converges smoothly to the curvature of the boundary of the Wulff shape, which is determined by the given anisotropic function, as time goes to infinity.

Inspired by some results (Alikakos and Rostamian, 1984; Kamin and Ughi, 1987) from the 1980s on the unweighted problem, we focus on solutions whose initial data are not globally integrable with respect to the weight and behave at infinity like , for .

Moreover, they exhibit a transition phenomenon which is new even for the unweighted equation. We prove that such self-similar solutions are attractors for the original problem, and convergence takes place globally in suitable weighted spaces for and even globally in under some mild additional regularity assumptions on the weight. Among the fundamental tools that we exploit, it is worth mentioning a global smoothing effect for non-integrable data.

The transcendent part of the Drinfel’d -adic upper half plane is shown to be a Polish space. Using Radon measures associated with regular differential 1-forms invariant under Schottky groups allows to construct self-adjoint diffusion operators as Laplacian integral operators with kernel functions determined by the -adic absolute value on the complex -adic numbers. Their spectra are explicitly calculated and the corresponding Cauchy problems for their associated heat equations are found to be uniquely solvable and to determine Markov processes having paths which are càdlàg. The heat kernels are shown to have explicitly given distribution functions, as well as boundary value problems associated with the heat equations under Dirichlet and von Neumann conditions are solved.

Vladimir Arnold defined three invariants for generic planar immersions, i.e. planar curves whose self-intersections are all transverse double points. We use a variational approach to study these invariants by investigating a suitably truncated knot energy, the tangent-point energy. We prove existence of energy minimizers for each truncation parameter in a class of immersions with prescribed winding number and Arnold invariants, and establish Gamma convergence of the truncated tangent-point energies to a limiting renormalized tangent-point energy as . Moreover, we show that any sequence of minimizers subconverges in , and the corresponding limit curve has the same topological invariants, self-intersects exclusively at right angles, and minimizes the renormalized tangent-point energy among all curves with right self-intersection angles. In addition, the limit curve is an almost-minimizer for all of the original truncated tangent-point energies as long as the truncation parameter is sufficiently small. Therefore, this limit curve serves as an “optimal” curve in the class of generic planar immersions with prescribed winding number and Arnold invariants.
Vladimir Arnold定义了一般平面浸入式的三个不变量,即自交均为横向双点的平面曲线。我们使用变分的方法来研究这些不变量,通过研究一个适当截断的结能量,切点能量。在给定圈数和Arnold不变量的浸入式中,证明了每一个截断参数δ>;0的能量极小值的存在性,并建立了截断的切点能量的伽玛收敛到一个极限重归一化切点能量为δ→0。此外,我们还证明了任何最小值序列在C1中都是子收敛的,并且相应的极限曲线具有相同的拓扑不变量,在直角处完全自交,并且在所有自交角为直角的曲线中极小化了的切点能量。此外,只要截断参数δ足够小,对于所有原始截断的切点能量,极限曲线几乎是最小的。因此,该极限曲线可作为具有规定圈数和阿诺德不变量的一般平面浸没的一类“最优”曲线。

We develop geometric analysis on weighted Riemannian manifolds under lower 0-weighted Ricci curvature bounds. Under such curvature bounds, we prove a first non-zero Steklov eigenvalue estimate of Wang–Xia type on compact weighted manifolds with boundary, and a first non-zero eigenvalue estimate of Choi–Wang type on closed weighted minimal hypersurfaces. We also produce an ABP estimate and a Sobolev inequality of Brendle type.

In this paper, we obtain a priori estimates for the set of anti-symmetric solutions to a fractional Laplacian equation in a bounded domain using a blowing-up and rescaling argument. In order to establish a contradiction to possible blow-ups, we apply a certain variation of the moving planes method in order to prove a monotonicity result for the limit equation after rescaling.
