• On the Generalized Geroch Conjecture for Complete Spin Manifolds

Abstract: Abstract Let W be a closed area enlargeable manifold in the sense of Gromov-Lawson and M be a noncompact spin manifold, the authors show that the connected sum M#W admits no complete metric of positive scalar curvature. When W = Tn, this provides a positive answer to the generalized Geroch conjecture in the spin setting.

• Recent Progress in Applications of the Conditional Nonlinear Optimal
Perturbation Approach to Atmosphere-Ocean Sciences

Abstract: Abstract The conditional nonlinear optimal perturbation (CNOP for short) approach is a powerful tool for predictability and targeted observation studies in atmosphere-ocean sciences. By fully considering nonlinearity under appropriate physical constraints, the CNOP approach can reveal the optimal perturbations of initial conditions, boundary conditions, model parameters, and model tendencies that cause the largest simulation or prediction uncertainties. This paper reviews the progress of applying the CNOP approach to atmosphere-ocean sciences during the past five years. Following an introduction of the CNOP approach, the algorithm developments for solving the CNOP are discussed. Then, recent CNOP applications, including predictability studies of some high-impact ocean-atmospheric environmental events, ensemble forecast, parameter sensitivity analysis, uncertainty estimation caused by errors of model tendency or boundary condition, are reviewed. Finally, a summary and discussion on future applications and challenges of the CNOP approach are presented.

• Convergence in Conformal Field Theory

Abstract: Abstract Convergence and analytic extension are of fundamental importance in the mathematical construction and study of conformal field theory. The author reviews some main convergence results, conjectures and problems in the construction and study of conformal field theories using the representation theory of vertex operator algebras. He also reviews the related analytic extension results, conjectures and problems. He discusses the convergence and analytic extensions of products of intertwining operators (chiral conformal fields) and of q-traces and pseudo-q-traces of products of intertwining operators. He also discusses the convergence results related to the sewing operation and the determinant line bundle and a higher-genus convergence result. He then explains conjectures and problems on the convergence and analytic extensions in orbifold conformal field theory and in the cohomology theory of vertex operator algebras.

• Local Well-posedness of the Derivative Schrödinger Equation in Higher
Dimension for Any Large Data

Abstract: Abstract In this paper, the authors consider the local well-posedness for the derivative Schrödinger equation in higher dimension $${u_t} - {\rm{i}}\Delta u + {\left u \right ^2}\left( {\overrightarrow \gamma \cdot \nabla u} \right) + {u^2}\left( {\overrightarrow \lambda \cdot \nabla \overline u } \right) = 0,\,\,\,\,\left( {x,t} \right) \in {\mathbb{R}^n} \times \mathbb{R},\,\,\overrightarrow \gamma ,\overrightarrow \lambda \in {\mathbb{R}^n};\,\,n \ge 2.$$ It is shown that the Cauchy problem of the derivative Schrödinger equation in higher dimension is locally well-posed in $${H^s}\left( {{\mathbb{R}^n}} \right)\,\,\left( {s > {n \over 2}} \right)$$ for any large initial data. Thus this result can compare with that in one dimension except for the endpoint space $${H^{{n \over 2}}}$$ .

• Holomorphic Retractions of Bounded Symmetric Domains onto Totally Geodesic
Complex Submanifolds

Abstract: Abstract Given a bounded symmetric domain Ω the author considers the geometry of its totally geodesic complex submanifolds S ⊂ Ω. In terms of the Harish-Chandra realization Ω ⋐ ℂn and taking S to pass through the origin 0 ∈ Ω, so that S = E ⋂ Ω for some complex vector subspace of ℂn, the author shows that the orthogonal projection ρ: Ω → E maps Ω onto S, and deduces that S ⊂ Ω is a holomorphic isometry with respect to the Carathéodory metric. His first theorem gives a new derivation of a result of Yeung’s deduced from the classification theory by Satake and Ihara in the special case of totally geodesic complex submanifolds of rank 1 and of complex dimension ≥ 2 in the Siegel upper half plane $${{\cal H}_g}$$ , a result which was crucial for proving the nonexistence of totally geodesic complex suborbifolds of dimension ≥ 2 on the open Torelli locus of the Siegel modular variety $${{\cal A}_g}$$ by the same author. The proof relies on the characterization of totally geodesic submanifolds of Riemannian symmetric spaces in terms of Lie triple systems and a variant of the Hermann Convexity Theorem giving a new characterization of the Harish-Chandra realization in terms of bisectional curvatures.

• Long-time Asymptotic Behavior for the Derivative Schrödinger Equation
with Finite Density Type Initial Data

Abstract: Abstract In this paper, the authors apply $$\overline \partial$$ steepest descent method to study the Cauchy problem for the derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation with finite density type initial data $$\matrix{{{\rm{i}}q + {q_{xx}} + {\rm{i}}{{\left( {{{\left q \right }^2}q} \right)}_x} = 0,} \hfill \cr {q\left( {x,0} \right) = {q_0}\left( x \right),} \hfill \cr }$$ where $$\mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to \pm \infty } {q_0}\left( x \right) = {q_ \pm }\,{\rm{and}}\,\,\left {{q_ \pm }} \right = 1$$ . Based on the spectral analysis of the Lax pair, they express the solution of the derivative Schrödinger equation in terms of solutions of a Riemann-Hilbert problem. They compute the long time asymptotic expansion of the solution q(x, t) in different space-time regions. For the region $$\xi = {x \over t}$$ with ∣ξ + 2∣ < 1, the long time asymptotic is given by $$q\left( {x,t} \right) = T{\left( \infty \right)^{ - 2}}q_\Lambda ^r\left( {x,t} \right) + {\cal O}\left( {{t^{ - {3 \over 4}}}} \right),$$ in which the leading term is N(I) solitons, the second term is a residual error from a $$\overline \partial$$ equation. For the region ∣ξ + 2∣ > 1, the long time asymptotic is given by $$q\left( {x,t} \right) = T{\left( \infty \right)^{ - 2}}q_\Lambda ^r\left( {x,t} \right) - {t^{ - {1 \over 2}}}{\rm{i}}{f_{11}} + {\cal O}\left( {{t^{ - {3 \over 4}}}} \right),$$ in which the leading term is N(I) solitons, the second $${t^{ - {1 \over 2}}}$$ order term is soliton-radiation interactions and the third term is a residual error from a $$\overline \partial$$ equation. These results are verification of the soliton resolution conjecture for the derivative Schrödinger equation. In their case of finite density type initial data, the phase function θ(z) is more complicated that in finite mass initial data. Moreover, two triangular decompositions of the jump matrix are used to open jump lines on the whole real axis and imaginary axis, respectively.

• Extrapolated Smoothing Descent Algorithm for Constrained Nonconvex and
Nonsmooth Composite Problems

Abstract: Abstract In this paper, the authors propose a novel smoothing descent type algorithm with extrapolation for solving a class of constrained nonsmooth and nonconvex problems, where the nonconvex term is possibly nonsmooth. Their algorithm adopts the proximal gradient algorithm with extrapolation and a safe-guarding policy to minimize the smoothed objective function for better practical and theoretical performance. Moreover, the algorithm uses a easily checking rule to update the smoothing parameter to ensure that any accumulation point of the generated sequence is an (affine-scaled) Clarke stationary point of the original nonsmooth and nonconvex problem. Their experimental results indicate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

• Turnpike Properties for Stochastic Linear-Quadratic Optimal Control
Problems

Abstract: Abstract This paper analyzes the limiting behavior of stochastic linear-quadratic optimal control problems in finite time-horizon [0, T] as T → ∞. The so-called turnpike properties are established for such problems, under stabilizability condition which is weaker than the controllability, normally imposed in the similar problem for ordinary differential systems. In dealing with the turnpike problem, a crucial issue is to determine the corresponding static optimization problem. Intuitively mimicking the deterministic situations, it seems to be natural to include both the drift and the diffusion expressions of the state equation to be zero as constraints in the static optimization problem. However, this would lead us to a wrong direction. It is found that the correct static problem should contain the diffusion as a part of the objective function, which reveals a deep feature of the stochastic turnpike problem.

• Heat Transfer Problem for the Boltzmann Equation in a Channel with
Diffusive Boundary Condition

Abstract: Abstract In this paper, the authors study the 1D steady Boltzmann flow in a channel. The walls of the channel are assumed to have vanishing velocity and given temperatures θ0 and θ1. This problem was studied by Esposito-Lebowitz-Marra (1994, 1995) where they showed that the solution tends to a local Maxwellian with parameters satisfying the compressible Navier-Stokes equation with no-slip boundary condition. However, a lot of numerical experiments reveal that the fluid layer does not entirely stick to the boundary. In the regime where the Knudsen number is reasonably small, the slip phenomenon is significant near the boundary. Thus, they revisit this problem by taking into account the slip boundary conditions. Following the lines of [Coron, F., Derivation of slip boundary conditions for the Navier-Stokes system from the Boltzmann equation, J. Stat. Phys., 54(3–4), 1989, 829–857], the authors will first give a formal asymptotic analysis to see that the flow governed by the Boltzmann equation is accurately approximated by a superposition of a steady CNS equation with a temperature jump condition and two Knudsen layers located at end points. Then they will establish a uniform L∞ estimate on the remainder and derive the slip boundary condition for compressible Navier-Stokes equations rigorously.

• Generalized Maximum Principles and Stochastic Completeness for
Pseudo-Hermitian Manifolds

Abstract: Abstract In this paper, the authors establish a generalized maximum principle for pseudo-Hermitian manifolds. As corollaries, Omori-Yau type maximum principles for pseudo-Hermitian manifolds are deduced. Moreover, they prove that the stochastic completeness for the heat semigroup generated by the sub-Laplacian is equivalent to the validity of a weak form of the generalized maximum principles. Finally, they give some applications of these generalized maximum principles.

• On the Radius of Analyticity of Solutions to 3D Navier-Stokes System with
Initial Data in Lp

Abstract: Abstract Given initial data u0 ∈ Lp (ℝ3) for some p in $$\left[ {3,{{18} \over 5}} \right[$$ , the auhtors first prove that 3D incompressible Navier-Stokes system has a unique solution u = uL+v with $${u_L}\mathop = \limits^{{\rm{def}}} \,{{\rm{e}}^{t\Delta }}{u_0}$$ and $$v \in {{\tilde L}^\infty }\left( {\left[ {0,T} \right];{{\dot H}^{{5 \over 2} - {6 \over p}}}} \right) \cap {{\tilde L}^1}\left( {\left] {0,T} \right[;{{\dot H}^{{9 \over 2} - {6 \over p}}}} \right)$$ for some positive time T. Then they derive an explicit lower bound for the radius of space analyticity of v, which in particular extends the corresponding results in [Chemin, J.-Y., Gallagher, I. and Zhang, P., On the radius of analyticity of solutions to semi-linear parabolic system, Math. Res. Lett., 27, 2020, 1631–1643, Herbst, I. and Skibsted, E., Analyticity estimates for the Navier-Stokes equations, Adv. in Math., 228, 2011, 1990–2033] with initial data in Ḣs(ℝ3) for $$s \in \left[ {{1 \over 2},{3 \over 2}} \right[$$ .

• Uniqueness of Solution to Systems of Elliptic Operators and Application to
Asymptotic Synchronization of Linear Dissipative Systems II: Case of
Multiple Feedback Dampings

Abstract: In this paper, the authors consider the asymptotic synchronization of a linear dissipative system with multiple feedback dampings. They first show that under the observability of a scalar equation, Kalman’s rank condition is sufficient for the uniqueness of solution to a complex system of elliptic equations with mixed observations. The authors then establish a general theory on the asymptotic stability and the asymptotic synchronization for the corresponding evolutional system subjected to mixed dampings of various natures. Some classic models are presented to illustrate the field of applications of the abstract theory.

• Hayward Quasilocal Energy of Tori

Abstract: Abstract In this paper, the authors show that one cannot dream of the positivity of the Hayward energy in the general situation. They consider a scenario of a spherically symmetric constant density star matched to the Schwarzschild solution, representing momentarily static initial data. It is proved that any topological tori within the star, distorted or not, have strictly positive Hayward energy. Surprisingly we find analytic examples of ‘thin’ tori with negative Hayward energy in the outer neighborhood of the Schwarzschild horizon. These tori are swept out by rotating the standard round circles in the static coordinates but they are distorted in the isotropic coordinates. Numerical results also indicate that there exist horizontally dragged tori with strictly negative Hayward energy in the region between the boundary of the star and the Schwarzschild horizon.
