چکیده

In this paper we prove a compensated compactness theorem for differential forms of the intrinsic complex of a Carnot group. The proof relies on a L–Hodge decomposition for these forms. Because of the lack of homogeneity of the intrinsic exterior differential, Hodge decomposition is proved using the parametrix of a suitable 0order Laplacian on forms.

Relative volume comparison theorems in Finsler geometry and their applications

We establish some relative volume comparison theorems for extremal volume forms of‎ ‎Finsler manifolds under suitable curvature bounds‎. ‎As their applications‎, ‎we obtain some results on curvature and topology of Finsler manifolds‎. ‎Our results remove the usual assumption on S-curvature that is needed in the literature‎.

New operators through measure of non-compactness

In this article, we use two concepts, measure of non-compactness and Meir-Keeler condensing operators. The measure of non-compactness has been applied for existence of solution nonlinear integral equations, ordinary differential equations and system of differential equations in the case of finite and infinite dimensions by some authors. Also Meir-Keeler condensing operators are shown in some pa...

A Complete Characterization of Invariant Jointly Rank-r Convex Quadratic Forms and Applications to Composite Materials

The theory of compensated compactness of Murat and Tartar links the algebraic condition of rank-r convexity with the analytic condition of weak lower semicontinuity. The former is an algebraic condition and therefore it is, in principle, very easy to use. However, in applications of this theory, the need for an efficient classification of rank-r convex forms arises. In the present paper, we def...

Taylor Formula on Step Two Carnot Groups

In the setting of step two Carnot groups we give an explicit representation of Taylor polynomial in terms of a suitable basis of the real vector space of left invariant differential operators, acting pointwisely on monomials like the ordinary Euclidean iterated derivations.

Isometric Immersions and Compensated Compactness

A fundamental problem in differential geometry is to characterize intrinsic metrics on a two-dimensional Riemannian manifold M2 which can be realized as isometric immersions into R3. This problem can be formulated as initial and/or boundary value problems for a system of nonlinear partial differential equations of mixed elliptic-hyperbolic type whose mathematical theory is largely incomplete. I...
