Sobolev Inequalities, Heat Kernels under Ricci Flow, and the by Qi S. Zhang

By Qi S. Zhang

Focusing on Sobolev inequalities and their functions to research on manifolds and Ricci stream, Sobolev Inequalities, warmth Kernels below Ricci circulate, and the Poincaré Conjecture introduces the sector of study on Riemann manifolds and makes use of the instruments of Sobolev imbedding and warmth kernel estimates to review Ricci flows, particularly with surgical procedures. the writer explains key principles, tricky proofs, and demanding functions in a succinct, available, and unified manner.



The booklet first discusses Sobolev inequalities in a number of settings, together with the Euclidean case, the Riemannian case, and the Ricci circulate case. It then explores a number of functions and ramifications, resembling warmth kernel estimates, Perelman’s W entropies and Sobolev inequality with surgical procedures, and the evidence of Hamilton’s little loop conjecture with surgical procedures. utilizing those instruments, the writer provides a unified method of the Poincaré conjecture that clarifies and simplifies Perelman’s unique proof.



Since Perelman solved the Poincaré conjecture, the world of Ricci circulate with surgical procedure has attracted loads of consciousness within the mathematical study neighborhood. besides insurance of Riemann manifolds, this booklet indicates the best way to hire Sobolev imbedding and warmth kernel estimates to envision Ricci circulate with surgery.
