چکیده

We study the rate of concentration of a Brownian bridge in time one around the corresponding geodesical segment on a Cartan-Hadamard manifold with pinched negative sectional curvature, when the distance between the two extremities tends to infinity. This improves on previous results by A. Eberle [7], and one of us [21]. Along the way, we derive a new asymptotic estimate for the logarithmic derivative of the heat kernel on such manifolds, in bounded time and with one space parameter tending to infinity, which can be viewed as a counterpart to Bismut’s asymptotic formula in small time [3].

Limiting angle of brownian motion in certain two-dimensional Cartan-Hadamard manifolds

Suppose that IH is a two-dimensional Cartan-Hadamard manifold with sectional curvatures satisfying a weak negative upper bound and no lower bound. Then the angular part of Brownian motion on IH tends to a limit as time tends to the explosion time of the Brownian motion. Moreover this limit angle has a distribution whose closed support is dense on the circle at infinity. KEY-WORDS : Brownian mot...

Uniform growth of groups acting on Cartan-Hadamard spaces

We say that Γ has uniform exponential growth if Ent Γ > 0. In [11], remarque 5.12, M. Gromov raised the question whether exponential growth always implies uniform exponential growth. The answer is negative, indeed, in [14] J.S. Wilson gave examples of finitely generated groups of exponential growth and non uniform exponential growth. Nevertheless, exponential growth implies uniform exponential ...

Generalizing [BrFa] we prove the existence of a bilipschitz embedded manifold of pinched negative curvature and dimension m1 +m2 −1 in the product X := Xm1 1 ×X m2 2 of two Hadamard manifolds Xmi i of dimension mi with pinched negative curvature. Combining this result with [BuySch] we prove the additivity of the hyperbolic rank for products of manifolds with pinched negative curvature.

Non-linear ergodic theorems in complete non-positive curvature metric spaces

Hadamard (or complete $CAT(0)$) spaces are complete, non-positive curvature, metric spaces. Here, we prove a nonlinear ergodic theorem for continuous non-expansive semigroup in these spaces as well as a strong convergence theorem for the commutative case. Our results extend the standard non-linear ergodic theorems for non-expansive maps on real Hilbert spaces, to non-expansive maps on Ha...

The Cross Curvature Flow of 3-manifolds with Negative Sectional Curvature

We introduce an evolution equation which deforms metrics on 3-manifolds with sectional curvature of one sign. Given a closed 3-manifold with an initial metric with negative sectional curvature, we conjecture that this flow will exist for all time and converge to a hyperbolic metric after a normalization. We shall establish a monotonicity formula in support of this conjecture. Note that in contr...
