A Note on Surfaces with Radially Symmetric Nonpositive Gaussian Curvature

ثبت نشده
چکیده

It is easily seen that the graphs of harmonic conjugate functions (the real and imaginary parts of a holomorphic function) have the same nonpositive Gaussian curvature. The converse to this statement is not as simple. Given two graphs with the same nonpositive Gaussian curvature, when can we conclude that the functions generating their graphs are harmonic? In this paper, we show that given a graph with radially symmetric nonpositive Gaussian curvature in a certain form, there are (up to) four families of harmonic functions whose graphs have this curvature. Moreover, the graphs obtained from these functions are not isometric in general.

MHD Flow of Blood through Radially Non-symmetric Stenosed Artery: a Hershcel-Bulkley Model (RESEARCH NOTE)

The purpose of this study is to develop a mathematical model for studying the magnetic field effect on blood flow through an axially non-symmetric but radially symmetric atherosclerotic artery. Herschel-Bulkley equation has been taken to represent the non-Newtonian character of blood. The response of magnetic field, stenosis height, shape parameter on velocity, volumetric flow rate in stenotic ...

On actions of discrete groups on nonpositively curved spaces

This note contains several observations concerning discrete groups of non-parabolic isometries of spaces of nonpositive curvature. We prove that (almost all) surface mapping class groups do not admit such actions; in particular, they do not act cocompactly. A new obstruction to the existence of a nonpositively curved metric on closed manifolds is presented. We give examples of 4-manifolds bered...

ACTION OF SEMISIMPLE ISOMERY GROUPS ON SOME RIEMANNIAN MANIFOLDS OF NONPOSITIVE CURVATURE

A manifold with a smooth action of a Lie group G is called G-manifold. In this paper we consider a complete Riemannian manifold M with the action of a closed and connected Lie subgroup G of the isometries. The dimension of the orbit space is called the cohomogeneity of the action. Manifolds having actions of cohomogeneity zero are called homogeneous. A classic theorem about Riemannian manifolds...

Simply-connected Nonpositive Curved Surfaces in R3

where |B| is the length of second fundamental form. |B|2 = 4|H|2 − 2K, where H is the mean curvature and K is the Gauss curvature. The curvature of minimal surfaces is nonpositive. Then we exam what is still hold for some minimal surface theorems if extending the minimal condition H ≡ 0 to the surfaces with K ≤ 0 and (1). In 2001, F. Xavier [18] has the following theorem: Theorem [Xavier]. Let ...

A Note on Riemannian Metrics on the Moduli Space of Riemann Surfaces

In this note we show that the moduli space M(Sg,n) of surface Sg,n of genus g with n punctures, satisfying 3g + n ≥ 5, admits no complete Riemannian metric of nonpositive sectional curvature such that the Teichmüler space T(Sg,n) is a mapping class group Mod(Sg,n)-invariant visibility manifold.
