Comparison Theorems in Pseudo-hermitian Geometry and Applications
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we study the theory of geodesics with respect to the TanakaWebster connection in a pseudo-Hermitian manifold, aiming to generalize some comparison results in Riemannian geometry to the case of pseudo-Hermitian geometry. Some HopfRinow type, Cartan-Hadamard type and Bonnet-Myers type results are established.

Relative volume comparison theorems in Finsler geometry and their applications
We establish some relative volume comparison theorems for extremal volume forms of Finsler manifolds under suitable curvature bounds. As their applications, we obtain some results on curvature and topology of Finsler manifolds. Our results remove the usual assumption on S-curvature that is needed in the literature.
متن کاملHermitian metric on quantum spheres
The paper deal with non-commutative geometry. The notion of quantumspheres was introduced by podles. Here we define the quantum hermitianmetric on the quantum spaces and find it for the quantum spheres.
متن کاملPseudo-Hermiticity for a Class of Nondiagonalizable Hamiltonians
We give two characterization theorems for pseudo-Hermitian (possibly nondiagonalizable) Hamiltonians with a discrete spectrum that admit a block-diagonalization with finite-dimensional diagonal blocks. In particular, we prove that for such an operator H the following statements are equivalent. 1. H is pseudo-Hermitian; 2. The spectrum of H consists of real and/or complex-conjugate pairs of eige...
متن کامل5 Comparison Theorems in Finsler Geometry and Their Applications
We prove Hessian comparison theorems, Laplacian comparison theorems and volume comparison theorems of Finsler manifolds under various curvature conditions. As applications, we derive Mckean type theorems for the first eigenvalue of Finsler manifolds, as well as generalize a result on fundamental group due to Milnor to Finsler manifolds.
متن کاملNon-Hermitian Quantum Theory and its Holomorphic Representation: Introduction and Applications
This article contains a short summary of an oral presentation in the 2nd International Workshop on “Pseudo-Hermitian Hamiltonians in Quantum Physics” (14.-16.6.2004, Villa Lanna, Prague, Czech Republic). The purpose of the presentation has been to introduce a non-Hermitian generalization of pseudo-Hermitian Quantum Theory (QT) allowing to reconcile the orthogonal concepts of causality, Poincaré...
