SynopsisWe consider the Yang–Mills functional denned on connections on a principal bundle over a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension 2 or 3. It is shown that if we consider the Yang–Mills functional as being defined on an appropriate Hilbert manifold of orbits of connections under the action of the group of principal bundle automorphisms, then the functional satisfies the Palais–Smale condition.

Small Eigenvalue

Abstract We investigate some very general pinching results for eigensections with small eigenvalue of a Riemannian vector bundle. In particular, this gives pinching results for the eigenvalues of 1-forms on a compact Riemannian manifold, along with other applications.

AbstractIn this paper, we consider Yang-Mills connections on a vector bundle E over a compact Riemannian manifold M of dimension m > 4, and we show that any set of Yang-Mills connections with the uniformly bounded -norm of curvature is compact in C∞ topology.

The Second Variation

AbstractWe define a new functional which is gauge invariant on the space of all smooth connections of a vector bundle over a compact Riemannian manifold. This functional is a generalization of the classical Yang-Mills functional. We derive its first variation formula and prove the existence of critical points. We also obtain the second variation formula.

SynopsisClassically the tangent sphere bundles have formed a large class of contact manifolds; their contact structures are not in general regular, however. Specifically we prove that the natural contact structure on the tangent sphere bundle of a compact Riemannian manifold of non-positive constant curvature is not regular.

AbstractLet (M, g(t)) be a compact Riemannian manifold and the metric g(t) evolve by the Ricci flow. In the paper, we prove that the eigenvalues of geometric operator −Δφ + $\frac{R}{2}$ are non-decreasing under the Ricci flow for manifold M with some curvature conditions, where Δφ is the Witten Laplacian operator, φ ∈ C2(M), and R is the scalar curvature with respect to the metric g(t). We also derive the evolution of eigenvalues under the normalized Ricci flow. As a consequence, we show that compact steady Ricci breather with these curvature conditions must be trivial.
