The Hermitian Laplace Operator on Nearly Kähler Manifolds

The Laplace-Beltrami-Operator on Riemannian Manifolds

This report mainly illustrates a way to compute the Laplace-Beltrami-Operator on a Riemannian Manifold and gives information to why and where it is used in the Analysis of 3D Shapes. After a brief introduction, an overview over the necessary properties of manifolds for calculating the Laplacian is given. Furthermore the two operators needed for defining the Laplace-Beltrami-Operator the gradien...

On Nearly Kähler Geometry *

We consider complete nearly Kähler manifolds with the canonical Hermitian connection. We prove some metric properties of strict nearly Kähler manifolds and give a sufficient condition for the reducibility of the canonical Hermitian connection. A holonomic condition for a nearly Kähler manifold to be a twistor space over a quaternionic Kähler manifold is given. This enables us to give classifica...

Eigenvalues Estimates for the p-Laplace Operator on Manifolds

The Laplace-Beltrami operator on a Riemannian manifold, its spectral theory and the relations between its first eigenvalue and the geometrical data of the manifold, such as curvatures, diameter, injectivity radius, volume, has been extensively studied in the recent mathematical literature. In the last few years, another operator, called p-Laplacian, arising from problems on Non-Newtonian Fluids...
