Maximum principle for viscosity solutions on Riemannian manifolds
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this work we consider viscosity solutions to second order partial differential equations on Riemannian manifolds. We prove maximum principles for solutions to Dirichlet problem on a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. Using a different method, we generalize maximum principles of Omori and Yau to a viscosity version.

Isoperimetric Comparisons via Viscosity
Viscosity solutions are suitable notions in the study of nonlinear PDEs justified by estimates established via the maximum principle or the comparison principle. Here we prove that the isoperimetric profile functions of Riemannian manifolds with Ricci lower bound are viscosity supersolutions of some nonlinear differential equations. From these one can derive the isoperimetric inequalities of Lé...
متن کاملACTION OF SEMISIMPLE ISOMERY GROUPS ON SOME RIEMANNIAN MANIFOLDS OF NONPOSITIVE CURVATURE
A manifold with a smooth action of a Lie group G is called G-manifold. In this paper we consider a complete Riemannian manifold M with the action of a closed and connected Lie subgroup G of the isometries. The dimension of the orbit space is called the cohomogeneity of the action. Manifolds having actions of cohomogeneity zero are called homogeneous. A classic theorem about Riemannian manifolds...
متن کاملA Geometry Preserving Kernel over Riemannian Manifolds
Abstract- Kernel trick and projection to tangent spaces are two choices for linearizing the data points lying on Riemannian manifolds. These approaches are used to provide the prerequisites for applying standard machine learning methods on Riemannian manifolds. Classical kernels implicitly project data to high dimensional feature space without considering the intrinsic geometry of data points. ...
متن کاملSub-Riemannian Geometry and Geodesics in Banach Manifolds
In this paper, we define and study sub-Riemannian structures on Banach manifolds. We obtain extensions of the Chow-Rashevski theorem for exact controllability, and give conditions for the existence of a Hamiltonian geodesic flow despite the lack of a Pontryagin Maximum Principle in the infinite dimensional setting.
متن کاملViscosity Solutions to Second Order Partial Differential Equations on Riemannian Manifolds
We prove comparison, uniqueness and existence results for viscosity solutions to a wide class of fully nonlinear second order partial differential equations F (x, u, du, du) = 0 defined on a finite-dimensional Riemannian manifold M . Finest results (with hypothesis that require the function F to be degenerate elliptic, that is nonincreasing in the second order derivative variable, and uniformly...
