Abstract Let $\mathcal {W}^{n}$ W n be the set of smooth complete simply connected n-dimensional manifolds without conjugate points. The Euclidean space and the hyperbolic space are examples of these manifolds. Let $W\in \mathcal {W}^{n}$ W ∈ W n and let A and B be two convex subsets of W. This note aims to investigate separation and slab horosphere separation of A and B. For example,sufficient conditions on A and B to be separated by a slab of horospheres are obtained. Existence and uniqueness of foot points and farthest points of a convex set A in $W\in \mathcal {W}$ W ∈ W are considered.

Abstract We consider a compact Riemann surface R of arbitrary genus, with a finite number of non-overlapping quasicircles, which separate R into two subsets: a connected Riemann surface $$\Sigma $$ Σ , and the union $$\mathcal {O}$$ O of a finite collection of simply connected regions. We prove that the Schiffer integral operator mapping the Bergman space of anti-holomorphic one-forms on $$\mathcal {O}$$ O to the Bergman space of holomorphic forms on $$\Sigma $$ Σ is an isomorphism onto the exact one-forms, when restricted to the orthogonal complement of the set of forms on all of R. We then apply this to prove versions of the Plemelj–Sokhotski isomorphism and jump decomposition for such a configuration. Finally we obtain some approximation theorems for the Bergman space of one-forms and Dirichlet space of holomorphic functions on $$\Sigma $$ Σ by elements of Bergman space and Dirichlet space on fixed regions in R containing $$\Sigma $$ Σ .

General Method

Abstract In this paper we introduce the notion of complex isoparametric functions on Riemannian manifolds. These are then employed to devise a general method for constructing proper r-harmonic functions. We then apply this to construct the first known explicit proper r-harmonic functions on the Lie group semidirect products $${{\mathbb {R}}}^m \ltimes {{\mathbb {R}}}^n$$ R m ⋉ R n and $${{\mathbb {R}}}^m \ltimes \mathrm {H}^{2n+1}$$ R m ⋉ H 2 n + 1 , where $$\mathrm {H}^{2n+1}$$ H 2 n + 1 denotes the classical $$(2n+1)$$ ( 2 n + 1 ) -dimensional Heisenberg group. In particular, we construct such examples on all the simply connected irreducible four-dimensional Lie groups.

In this paper we show that some nonsimply connected manifolds without conjugate points exhibit rigidity phenomena similar to that studied in [BGS, section I.5]. This is a companion paper to [Cr-Kl1] that deals with the simply connected case. In particular, we show that one cannot make a nontrivial, compactly supported, change to a complete flat metric without introducing conjugate points.

Aspherical Manifolds

We give a classification of many closed Riemannian manifolds M whose universal cover [Formula: see text] possesses a nontrivial amount of symmetry. More precisely, we consider closed Riemannian manifolds M such that [Formula: see text] has noncompact connected components. We prove that in many cases, such a manifold is as a fiber bundle over a locally homogeneous space. This is inspired by work of Eberlein (for non-positively curved manifolds) and Farb-Weinberger (for aspherical manifolds), and generalizes work of Frankel (for a semisimple group action). As an application, we characterize simply-connected Riemannian manifolds with both compact and finite volume noncompact quotients.

Class C

Let M denote a connected Riemannian manifold of class C3, with positive definite C2 metric. The curvature tensor then exists, and is continuous.By a classical theorem of J. H. C. Whitehead (1), every point x of M has the property that all sufficiently small spherical neighbourhoods V of x are convex; that is, (i) to every y,z ∈ V there is one and only one geodesic segment yz in M which is the shortest path joining them:f:([0, 1]) → M,f(0) = y, f(1) = z; and (ii) this segment yz lies entirely in V:f([0, 1]) V; (iii) if f is parametrized proportional to arc length, then f(t) is a C2 function of y, t, and z.Let V be a convex set in M; and let y1 y2, Z1, z2 ∈ V.
