We generalize A. Borbély’s condition for the conclusion of the Omori-Yau maximum principle for the Laplace operator on a complete Riemannian manifold to a second-order linear semielliptic operatorLwith bounded coefficients and no zeroth order term. Also, we consider a new sufficient condition for the existence of a tamed exhaustion function. From these results, we may remark that the existence of a tamed exhaustion function is more general than the hypotheses in the version of the Omori-Yau maximum principle that was given by A. Ratto, M. Rigoli, and A. G. Setti.

Let V be a connected, compact, differentiable Riemannian manifold. If V is not closed we denote its boundary by S. In terms of local coordinates (xi), i = 1, 2, … Ν, the line-element dr is given by where gik (x1, x2, … xN) are the components of the metric tensor on V We denote by Δ the Beltrami-Laplace-Operator and we consider on V the differential equation (1) Δu + λu = 0.

In this article, it has been observed that a unit Killing vector field ξ on an n-dimensional Riemannian manifold (M,g), influences its algebra of smooth functions C∞(M). For instance, if h is an eigenfunction of the Laplace operator Δ with eigenvalue λ, then ξ(h) is also eigenfunction with same eigenvalue. Additionally, it has been observed that the Hessian Hh(ξ,ξ) of a smooth function h∈C∞(M) defines a self adjoint operator ⊡ξ and has properties similar to most of properties of the Laplace operator on a compact Riemannian manifold (M,g). We study several properties of functions associated to the unit Killing vector field ξ. Finally, we find characterizations of the odd dimensional sphere using properties of the operator ⊡ξ and the nontrivial solution of Fischer–Marsden differential equation, respectively.
