We define a general class of elliptic equations for 2-forms on 4-manifolds, of which the complex Monge-Ampere equation is a prototype. We obtain some regularity results and discuss various connections (some speculative) with modern symplectic 4-manifold theory.

In this paper, an equality between the Hochs-Mathai type index and the Atiyah-Patodi-Singer type index is established when the manifold and the group action are both non-compact, which generalizes a result of Ma and Zhang for compact group actions. As a technical preparation, a problem concerning the Fredholm property of the global elliptic boundary value problems of the Atiyah-Patodi-Singer type on a non-compact manifold is studied.
Given an elliptic action of a compact Lie group $G$ on a co-oriented contact manifold $(M,E)$ one obtains two naturally associated objects: A $G$-transversally elliptic operator $\dirac$, and an equivariant differential form with generalised coefficients $\mathcal{J}(E,X)$ defined in terms of a choice of contact form on $M$. We explain how the form $\mathcal{J}(E,X)$ is natural with respect to the contact structure, and give a formula for the equivariant index of $\dirac$ involving $\mathcal{J}(E,X)$. A key tool is the Chern character with compact support developed by Paradan-Vergne \cite{PV1,…
In this paper we consider a singular elliptic equation involving the GJMS (Graham-Jenne-Mason-Sparling) operator of order k on n-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold with 2k<n. Mutiplicity and nonexistence results are established.
In this short note, we consider gradient estimates for positive solutions to the following nonlinear elliptic equation on a complete Riemannian manifold: $$Δu+cu^α=0,$$ where $c, α$ are two real constants and $c\neq 0$.
It was conjectured by Bott-Grove-Halperin that a compact simply connected Riemannian manifold $M$ with nonnegative sectional curvature is rationally elliptic. We confirm this conjecture under the stronger assumption that $M$ has entire Grauert tube,i.e.,$M$ is a real analytic Riemannian manifold that has a unique adapted complex structure defined on the whole tangent bundle $TM$.
We study the differential-geometric properties of the loci of fixed points of the elliptic isometries of the manifold of definite positive real matrices with the trace metric. We also give an explicit description of such loci and in particular we find their De Rham decomposition.
We show, by modifying Borbély's example, that there are $3$-dimen\-sional Cartan-Hadamard manifolds $M$, with sectional curvatures $\le -1$, such that the asymptotic Dirichlet problem for a class of quasilinear elliptic PDEs, including the minimal graph equation, is not solvable.
We derive the existence of $C^{1,1}$-solutions to the Dirichlet problem for degenerate fully nonlinear elliptic equations on Riemannian manifolds under appropriate assumptions.
We prove a version of differential Harnack inequality for a family of sub-elliptic diffusions on Sasakian manifolds under certain curvature conditions.
Under structural conditions which are almost optimal, we derive a quantitative version of boundary estimate then prove existence of solutions to Dirichlet problem for a class of fully nonlinear elliptic equations on Hermitian manifolds.
In this paper, we study eigenvalue of linear fourth order elliptic operators in divergence form with Dirichlet boundary condition on a bounded domain in a compact Riemannian manifolds with boundary (possibly empty) and find a general inequality for them. As an application, by using this inequality, we study eigenvalues of this operator on compact domains of complete submanifolds in a Euclidean space.
Let $M$ be a compact simply connected manifold satisfying $H^*(M;\mathbf{Q})\cong T_{d,n+1}(x)$ for integers $d\ge 2$ and $n\ge 1$. If all prime closed geodesics on $(M,F)$ with an irreversible bumpy Finsler metric $F$ are elliptic, either there exist exactly $\frac{dn(n+1)}{2}$ (when $d\ge 2$ is even) or $(d+1)$ (when $d\ge 3$ is odd) distinct closed geodesics, or there exist infinitely many distinct closed geodesics.
We give a characterization of closed, simply connected, rationally elliptic 6-manifolds in terms of their rational cohomology rings and a partial classification of their real cohomology rings. We classify rational, real and complex homotopy types of closed, simply connected, rationally elliptic 7-manifolds. We give partial results in dimensions 8 and 9.
In this paper, we show that the quotient space of the domain by the reflection group for an elliptic root system has a structure of Frobenius manifold for the case of codimension 1. We also give a characterization of this Frobenius manifold structure under some suitable condition.
An upper bound is obtained on the rank of a torus which can act smoothly and effectively on a smooth, closed, simply connected, rationally elliptic manifold. In the maximal-rank case, the manifolds admitting such actions are classified up to equivariant rational homotopy type.
We derive gradient and second order {\em a priori} estimates for solutions of the Neumann problem for a general class of fully nonlinear elliptic equations on compact Riemannian manifolds with boundary. These estimates yield regularity and existence results.
We study a class of fully nonlinear elliptic equations on closed Hermitian manifolds. We derive $C^\infty$ {\em a priori} estimates, and then prove the existence of admissible solutions. In the approach, a new Hermitian metic is constructed to launch the method of continuity.
We study a class of fully nonlinear elliptic equations on closed Hermitian manifolds. Under the assumption of cone condition, we derive the $L^\infty$ estimate directly.
In this paper we are concerned with a class of elliptic differential inequalities with a potential both on $\erre^m$ and on Riemannian manifolds. In particular, we investigate the effect of the geometry of the underlying manifold and of the behavior of the potential at infinity on nonexistence of nonnegative solutions.
Let $(M^{n+1}, g)$ be a compact Riemannian manifold with smooth boundary B and nonnegative Bakry-Emery Ricci curvature. In this paper, we use the solvability of some elliptic equations to prove some estimates of the weighted mean curvature and some related rigidity theorems. As their applications, we obtain some lower bound estimate of the first nonzero eigenvalue of the drifting Laplacian acting on functions on B and some corresponding rigidity theorems.
In this paper, we study geometric rigidity of Riemannian manifolds admitting stable solutions of certain elliptic problems (stability in a variational sense), that is, under suitable hypotheses, we are able to characterize the Riemannian manifold which admits a stable solution. Furthermore, under the non-negativity of the weighted Ricci curvature, we deduce several data about the stable solution and a splitting result for the manifold.
The closed 3-manifolds of constant positive curvature were classified long ago by Seifert and Threlfall. Using well-known information about the orthogonal group O(4), we calculate their full isometry groups Isom(M), determine which elliptic 3-manifolds admit Seifert fiberings that are invariant under all isometries, and verify that the inclusion of Isom(M) to Diff(M) is a bijection on path components.
We solve the Dirichlet problem for fully nonlinear elliptic equations on Riemannian manifolds under essentially optimal structure conditions, especially with no restrictions to the curvature of the underlying manifold and the second fundamental form of its boundary. The main result (Theorem 1.1) includes a new (and optimal) result in the Euclidean case. We introduce some new ideas and methods in deriving a priori estimates, which can be used to treat other types of fully nonlinear elliptic and parabolic equations on real or complex manifolds.

Mainly motivated by a conjecture of Alesker and Verbitsky, we study a class of elliptic equations on compact hyperhermitian manifolds. By adapting the approach of Székelyhidi to the hypercomplex setting, we prove some a priori estimates for solutions to such equations. In the estimate of the Laplacian we assume the existence of a flat hyperkähler metric. As an application of our results we prove that the quaternionic analogue of the Hessian equation can always be solved on compact flat hyperkähler manifolds.
We investigate the uniqueness, in suitable weighted Lebesgue spaces, of solutions to a class of elliptic equations with a drift posed on a complete, noncompact, Riemannian manifold $M$ of infinite volume and dimension $N\ge2$. Furthermore, in the special case of a model manifold with polynomial volume growth, we show that the conditions on the drift term are sharp.

We derive a priori estimates for solutions of a general class of fully non-linear equations on compact Hermitian manifolds. Our method is based on ideas that have been used for different specific equations, such as the complex Monge-Ampère, Hessian and inverse Hessian equations. As an application we solve a class of Hessian quotient equations on Kähler manifolds assuming the existence of a suitable subsolution. The method also applies to analogous equations on compact Riemannian manifolds.
In this paper, we provide a systematic and constructive description of Vaisman structures on certain principal elliptic bundles over complex flag manifolds. From this description we explicitly classify homogeneous l.c.K. structures on compact homogeneous Hermitian manifolds using elements of representation theory of complex simple Lie algebras. Moreover, we also describe using Lie theory all homogeneous solutions of the Hermitian-Einstein-Weyl equation on compact homogeneous Hermitian-Weyl manifolds. As an application, we provide a huge class of explicit (nontrivial) examples of such structure…
We derive a priori second order estimates for solutions of a class of fully nonlinear elliptic equations on Riemannian manifolds under some very general structure conditions. We treat both equations on closed manifolds, and the Dirichlet problem on manifolds with boundary without any geometric restrictions to the boundary except being smooth and compact. As applications of these estimates we obtain results on regularity and existence.
In this note we establish the large time non-negativity of the heat kernel for a class of elliptic differential operators on closed, Riemannian manifolds, and apply this result to a problem from conformal differential geometry.
We prove estimates and existence results for some fully nonlinear elliptic equations on Riemannian manifolds. These equations are not arbitrary, but arise naturally in the study of conformal geometry.
In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of second-order uniformly elliptic operators on weighted Riemannian manifolds. They naturally emerge when studying spectral properties of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on families of manifolds with rapidly oscillating metrics. We appeal to the notion of H-convergence introduced by Murat and Tartar. In our main result we establish an H-compactness result that applies to elliptic operators with measurable, uniformly elliptic coefficients on weighted Riemannian manifolds. We further discuss the special case of ``locally periodic'' coefficients and st…
In this paper, we study Hessian equations and complex quotient equations on closed Hermitian manifolds. We directly derive the uniform estimate for the admissible solution. As an application, we solve general Hessian equations on closed Kähler manifolds.
We show that a closed, connected, oriented, Riemannian $n$-manifold, admitting a branched cover of bounded length distortion from $\mathbb R^n$, has a virtually Abelian fundamental group.

The main result of the paper is Egorov's theorem for transversally elliptic operators on compact foliated manifolds. This theorem is applied to describe the noncommutative geodesic flow in noncommutative geometry of Riemannian foliations.
This article studies the Dirichlet problem for a class of degenerate fully nonlinear elliptic equations on Riemannian manifolds with \textit{mean concave} boundary in the sense that the mean curvature of the boundary is \textit{nonpositive}. The proof is primarily based on a quantitative boundary estimate. Also, we obtain analogous results in complex variables. In Appendix, the subsolutions are also constructed on certain topologically product manifolds.
This is the first in a series of papers in which we develop a twistor-based method of constructing hyperkaehler metrics from holomorphic functions and elliptic curves. As an application, we revisit the Atiyah-Hitchin manifold and derive in an explicit holomorphic coordinate basis closed-form formulas for, among other things, the metric, the holomorphic symplectic form and all three Kaehler potentials.

In this paper we prove classification results for solutions to subcritical and critical semilinear elliptic equations with a nonnegative potential on noncompact manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature. We show in the subcritical case that all nonnegative solutions vanish identically. Moreover, under some natural assumptions, in the critical case we prove a strong rigidity result, namely we classify all nontrivial solutions showing that they exist only if the potential is constant and the manifold is isometric to the Euclidean space.
In this paper, we establish a priori estimates for solutions of a general class of fully non-linear equations on compact almost Hermitian manifolds. As an application, we solve the complex Hessian equation and the Monge--Ampère equation for $(n-1)$-plurisubharmonic equations in the almost Hermitian setting.

By adapting the approach of Székelyhidi to the hypercomplex setting, we prove some a priori estimates for solutions to such equations under the assumption of existence of $\mathcal{C}$-subsolutions. In the estimate of the quaternionic Laplacian, we need to further assume the existence of a flat hyperkähler metric. As an application of our results we prove that the quaternionic analogue of the Hessian equation and Monge-Ampère equation f…

The general theory of parabolic geometries is applied to the study of the normal Cartan connections for all hyperbolic and elliptic 6-dimensional CR-manifolds of codimension two. The geometric meaning of the individual components of the torsion is explained and the chains of dimensions one and two are discussed. This seems to be the first application of the general methods to a geometry with a non-connected and non-simple structure group.
The recently discovered fourth class of Frobenius manifolds by Combe--Manin in opened and highlighted new geometric domains to explore. The guiding mantra of this article is to show the existence of hidden geometric aspects of the fourth Frobenius manifold, which turns out to be related to so-called causality conditions. Firstly, it is proved that the fourth class of Frobenius manifolds is a Pseudo-Elliptic one. Secondly, this manifold turns out to be a sub-manifold of a non-orientable Lorentzian projective manifold. Thirdly, Maurer--Cartan structures for this manifold and hidden geometrical p…
We classify simply connected rationally elliptic manifolds of dimension five and those of dimension six with small Betti numbers from the point of view of their rational cohomology structure. We also prove that a geometrically formal rationally elliptic six dimensional manifold, whose second Betti number is two, is rational cohomology $S^2\times {\mathbb C}P^2$. An infinite family of six-dimensional simply connected biquotients whose second Betti number is three, different from Totaro's biquotients, is considered and it is proved that none of biquotient from this family is geometrically formal…
We consider a class of fully nonlinear second order elliptic equations on Hermitian manifolds closely related to the general notion of $\bfG$-plurisubharmonicity of Harvey-Lawson and an equation treated by Székelyhidi-Tosatti-Weinkove in the proof of Gauduchon conjecture. Under fairly general assumptions we derive interior estimates and establish the existence of smooth solutions for the Dirichlet problem as well as for equations on closed manifolds.
We investigate existence and uniqueness of bounded solutions of parabolic equations with unbounded coefficients in $M\times \mathbb R_+$, where $M$ is a complete noncompact Riemannian manifold. Under specific assumptions, we establish existence of solutions satisfying prescribed conditions at infinity, depending on the direction along which infinity is approached. Moreover, the large-time behavior of such solutions is studied. We consider also elliptic equations on $M$ with similar conditions at infinity.
The main result of this paper states that a symplectic s-cobordism of elliptic 3-manifolds is diffeomorphic to a product (assuming a canonical contact structure on the boundary). Based on this theorem, we conjecture that a smooth s-cobordism of elliptic 3-manifolds is smoothly a product if its universal cover is smoothly a product. We explain how the conjecture fits naturally into the program of Taubes of constructing symplectic structures on an oriented smooth 4-manifold from generic self-dual harmonic forms. The paper also contains an auxiliary result of independent interest, which generaliz…

We prove some inequalities of Payne-Pólya-Weinberger-Yang type for eigenvalues of fourth-order elliptic operators in weighted divergence form on complete Riemannian manifolds which generalizes the corresponding result for the clamped plate problem. We also prove estimates for lower order eigenvalues that contain some of the estimates from the literature. As an application of our results, we obtain eigenvalues estimates for the bi-drifted Cheng-Yau operator.
We study the solvability of the equation for the smooth function F, H=-k F g, on a geodesically complete pseudo-Riemannian manifold (M,g), H being the covariant Hessian of F. A similar equation was considered by Obata and Gallot in the Riemannian case for positive values of the constant k; the result was that the manifold must be the canonical sphere. In this generalized setting we obtain a range of possibilities, depending on the sign of k, the signature of the metric and the value of a certain first integral of the equation: the manifold is shown to be of constant sectional curvature or a wa…
We define abstract Sobolev type spaces on $\mathsf{L}^p$-scales, $p\in [1,\infty)$, on Hermitian vector bundles over possibly noncompact manifolds, which are induced by smooth measures and families $\mathfrak{P}$ of linear partial differential operators, and we prove the density of the corresponding smooth Sobolev sections in these spaces under a generalized ellipticity condition on the underlying family. In particular, this implies a covariant version of Meyers-Serrin\rq{}s theorem on the whole $\mathsf{L}^p$-scale, for arbitrary Riemannian manifolds. Furthermore, we prove a new local ellipti…

We show that the existence of a Fredholm element of the zero calculus of pseudodifferential operators on a compact manifold with boundary with a given elliptic symbol is determined, up to stability, by the vanishing of the Atiyah-Bott obstruction. It follows that, up to small deformations and stability, the same symbols have Fredholm realizations in the zero calculus, in the scattering calculus and in the transmission calculus of Boutet de Monvel.
We derive estimates relating the values of a solution at any two points to the distance between the points, for quasilinear isotropic elliptic equations on compact Riemannian manifolds, depending only on dimension and a lower bound for the Ricci curvature. These estimates imply sharp gradient bounds relating the gradient of an arbitrary solution at given height to that of a symmetric solution on a warped product model space. We also discuss the problem on Finsler manifolds with nonnegative weighted Ricci curvature, and on complete manifolds with bounded geometry, including solutions on manifol…
