Heat Invariants of Riemannian Manifolds
We obtain explicit formulas for the local heat invariants of arbitrary Riemannian manifolds without boundary. Our approach is based on a multi-dimensional generalization of the Agmon-Kannai method.
متن کاملSchouten curvature functions on locally conformally flat Riemannian manifolds
Consider a compact Riemannian manifold (M, g) with metric g and dimension n ≥ 3. The Schouten tensor Ag associated with g is a symmetric (0, 2)-tensor field describing the non-conformally-invariant part of the curvature tensor of g. In this paper, we consider the elementary symmetric functions {σk(Ag), 1 ≤ k ≤ n} of the eigenvalues of Ag with respect to g; we call σk(Ag) the k-th Schouten curva...
متن کاملConformal Invariants Associated to a Measure, Ii: Conformally Covariant Operators
In this paper we continue to study Riemannian manifolds (M, g) equipped with a smooth measure m. In particular, we show that the construction of conformally covariant operators due to Graham-Jenne-Mason-Sparling can be adapted to this setting. As a by-product, we define a family of scalar curvatures, one of which corresponds to Perelman’s scalar curvature function. We also study the variational...

متن کاملVariational collision avoidance problems on Riemannian manifolds
In this article we introduce a variational approach to collision avoidance of multiple agents evolving on a Riemannian manifold and derive necessary conditions for extremals. The problem consists of finding non-intersecting trajectories of a given number of agents, among a set of admissible curves, to reach a specified configuration, based on minimizing an energy functional that depends on the ...
