This paper investigates existence and non-existence of immersions of Riemannian manifolds. It discovers the lowest dimension of the Euclidean space into which the projective plane FP2 is isometrically immersed, by the computation of the normal Euler class. For strictly hyperbolic immersion, a new obstruction involving signature or Kervaire semi-characteristic is found. As for the existence, it constructs a strictly hyperbolic immersion from the Klein bottle to the unit sphere S3(1), solving a question posed by Gromov.

We consider surface measures on the set of trajectories in a smooth compact Riemannian submanifold of Euclidean space generated by diffusion processes in the ambient space. A construction of surface measures on the path space of a smooth compact Riemannian submanifold of Euclidean space was introduced by Smolyanov and Weizsäcker for the case of the standard Brownian motion. The result presented in this paper extends the result of Smolyanov and Weizsäcker to the case when we consider measures generated by diffusion processes in the ambient space with nonidentical correlation operators. For every partition of the time interval, we consider the marginal distribution of the diffusion process in the ambient space under the condition that it visits the manifold at all times of the partition, when the mesh of the partition tends to zero. We prove the existence of some limit surface measures and the equivalence of the above measures to the distribution of some diffusion process on the manifold.

We establish necessary conditions for the existence of solutions to a class of semilinear hyperbolic problems defined on complete noncompact Riemannian manifolds, extending some nonexistence results for the wave operator with power nonlinearity on the whole Euclidean space. A general weight function depending on spacetime is allowed in front of the power nonlinearity.

In a recent paper [2] Nomizu and Smyth have determined the hypersurfaces Mn of non-negative sectional curvature iso-metrically immersed in the Euclidean space Rn+1 or the sphere Sn+1 with constant mean curvature under the additional assumption that the scalar curvature of Mn is constant. This additional assumption is automatically satisfied if Mn is compact. In this paper we extend these results to codimension p isometric immersions. We determine the n-dimensional submanifolds Mn of non-negative sectional curvature isometrically immersed in the Euclidean Space Rn+P or the sphere Sn+P with constant mean curvature under the additional assumptions that Mn has constant scalar curvature and the curvature tensor of the connection in the normal bundle is zero. By constant mean curvature we mean that the mean curvature normal is paral lel with respect to the connection in the normal bundle. The assumption that Mn has constant scalar curvature is automatically satisfied if Mn is compact. The assumption on the normal connection is automatically sa tisfied if p = 2 and the mean curvature normal is not zero.

In a recent paper Miranda Jr., Pallara, Paronetto and Preunkert have shown that the classical De Giorgi's heat kernel characterisation of functions of bounded variation on Euclidean space extends to Riemannian manifolds with Ricci curvature bounded from below and which satisfy a uniform lower bound estimate on the volume of geodesic balls of fixed radius. We give a shorter proof of the same result assuming only the lower bound on the Ricci curvature.

In this note we point out that a recent result of Leung concerning hypersurfaces of a Euclidean space has a simple generalisation to hypersurfaces of complete simply-connected Riemannian manifolds of non-positive constant sectional curvature.
