Chain Maps

In previous work, with Bartholdi and Schick [1], the authors developed a Hodge–de Rham theory for compact metric spaces, which defined a cohomology of the space at a scale α. Here, in the case of Riemannian manifolds at a small scale, we construct explicit chain maps between the de Rham complex of differential forms and the L2 complex at scale α, which induce isomorphisms on cohomology. We also give estimates that show that on smooth functions, the Laplacian of [1], when appropriately scaled, is a good approximation of the classical Laplacian.

Range Of Values

We study homeomorphisms of Riemannian manifolds with unbounded characteristic such that the inverse mappings satisfy the Poletsky-type inequality. It is established that their families are equicontinuous if the function Q which is related to the Poletsky inequality and is responsible for a distortion of the modulus, is integrable in the given domain, here the original manifold is connected and the domain of definition and the range of values of mappings have compact closures.

AbstractWe investigate strong maximum (and minimum) principles for fully nonlinear second-order equations on Riemannian manifolds that are non-totally degenerate and satisfy appropriate scaling conditions. Our results apply to a large class of nonlinear operators, among which Pucci’s extremal operators, some singular operators such as those modeled on the p- and $$\infty $$ ∞ -Laplacian, and mean curvature-type problems. As a byproduct, we establish new strong comparison principles for some second-order uniformly elliptic problems when the manifold has nonnegative sectional curvature.
