Let [Formula: see text] be a smooth compact Riemannian manifold of dimension [Formula: see text] and let [Formula: see text] to be a closed submanifold of dimension [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we study existence and non-existence of minimizers of Hardy inequality with weight function singular on [Formula: see text] within the framework of Brezis–Marcus–Shafrir [Extremal functions for Hardy’s inequality with weight, J. Funct. Anal. 171 (2000) 177–191]. In particular, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for existence of minimizers.

In this article, we study Jacobi-type vector fields on Riemannian manifolds. A Killing vector field is a Jacobi-type vector field while the converse is not true, leading to a natural question of finding conditions under which a Jacobi-type vector field is Killing. In this article, we first prove that every Jacobi-type vector field on a compact Riemannian manifold is Killing. Then, we find several necessary and sufficient conditions for a Jacobi-type vector field to be a Killing vector field on non-compact Riemannian manifolds. Further, we derive some characterizations of Euclidean spaces in terms of Jacobi-type vector fields. Finally, we provide examples of Jacobi-type vector fields on non-compact Riemannian manifolds, which are non-Killing.

In this article, we show that the presence of a torqued vector field on a Riemannian manifold can be used to obtain rigidity results for Riemannian manifolds of constant curvature. More precisely, we show that there is no torqued vector field on n-sphere Sn(c). A nontrivial example of torqued vector field is constructed on an open subset of the Euclidean space En whose torqued function and torqued form are nowhere zero. It is shown that owing to topology of the Euclidean space En, this type of torqued vector fields could not be extended globally to En. Finally, we find a necessary and sufficient condition for a torqued vector field on a compact Riemannian manifold to be a concircular vector field.

AbstractWe introduce semi-invariant Riemannian submersions from almost Hermitian manifolds onto Riemannian manifolds. We give examples, investigate the geometry of foliations that arise from the definition of a Riemannian submersion, and find necessary sufficient conditions for total manifold to be a locally product Riemannian manifold. We also find necessary and sufficient conditions for a semi-invariant submersion to be totally geodesic. Moreover, we obtain a classification for semiinvariant submersions with totally umbilical fibers and show that such submersions put some restrictions on total manifolds.

Let (M,g) be a 2-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. In this paper, we use the method of blowing up analysis to prove the existence of the extremal functions for some Moser–Trudinger inequalities on (M,g).

Let Fm = (M, F) be a Finsler manifold and G be the Sasaki-Finsler metric on the slit tangent bundle TM0 = TM \{0} of M. We express the scalar curvature ?~ of the Riemannian manifold (TM0,G) in terms of some geometrical objects of the Finsler manifold Fm. Then, we find necessary and sufficient conditions for ?~ to be a positively homogenenous function of degree zero with respect to the fiber coordinates of TM0. Finally, we obtain characterizations of Landsberg manifolds, Berwald manifolds and Riemannian manifolds whose ?~ satisfies the above condition.

In the present paper, we introduce a new class of natural metrics on the tangent bundle $TM$ of the Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ denoted by $G^{f,h}$ which is named a twisted Sasakian metric. A necessary and sufficient conditions under which a vector field is harmonic with respect to the twisted Sasakian metric are established. Some examples of harmonic vector fields are presented as well.

AbstractIn this article we prove a reverse Hölder inequality for the fundamental eigenfunction of the Dirichlet problem on domains of a compact Riemannian manifold with lower Ricci curvature bounds. We also prove an isoperimetric inequality for the torsional ridigity of such domains

This paper has two aims. First, we show that the usual notion of umbilical maps between Riemannian manifolds does not work for Riemannian maps. Then we introduce a new notion of umbilical Riemannian maps between Riemannian manifolds and give a method on how to construct examples of umbilical Riemannian maps. In the second part, as a generalization of CR-submanifolds, holomorphic submersions, anti-invariant submersions, invariant Riemannian maps and anti-invariant Riemannian maps, we introduce semi-invariant Riemannian maps from Riemannian manifolds to almost Hermitian manifolds, give examples and investigate the geometry of distributions which are arisen from definition. We also obtain a decomposition theorem and give necessary and sufficient conditions for a semi-invariant Riemannian map to be totally geodesic. Then we study the geometry of umbilical semi-invariant Riemannian maps and obtain a classification theorem for such Riemannian maps.

A theorem of Escobar and Schoen asserts that on a positive three dimensional smooth compact Riemannian manifold which is not conformally equivalent to the standard three dimensional sphere, a necessary and sufficient condition for a C2 function K to be the scalar curvature function of some conformal metric is that K is positive somewhere. We show that for any positive C2 function K, all such metrics stay in a compact set with respect to C3 norms and the total Leray-Schauder degree of all solutions is equal to -1. Such existence and compactness results no longer hold in such generality in higher dimensions or on manifolds conformally equivalent to standard three dimensional spheres. The results are also established for more general Yamabe type equations on three dimensional manifolds.

AbstractThe best-constant problem for Nash and Sobolev inequalities on Riemannian manifolds has been intensively studied in the last few decades, especially in the compact case. We treat this problem here for a more general family of Gagliardo–Nirenberg inequalities including the Nash inequality and the limiting case of a particular logarithmic Sobolev inequality. From the latter, we deduce a sharp heat-kernel upper bound.AMS 2000 Mathematics subject classification: Primary 58J05
