Lenses on very curved zones of a singular foliation of C2
2018
Abstract We renormalize, using suitable lenses, small domains of a singular holomorphic foliation of C 2 where the curvature is concentrated. At a proper scale, the leaves are almost translates of a graph that we will call profile. When the leaves of the foliations are levels f = λ , where f is a polynomial in 2 variables, this graph is polynomial. Finally we will indicate how our methods may be adapted to study levels of polynomials and 1-forms in C 3 .
An upper gradient approach to weakly differentiable cochains
2012
Abstract The aim of the present paper is to define a notion of weakly differentiable cochain in the generality of metric measure spaces and to study basic properties of such cochains. Our cochains are (sub)additive functionals on a subspace of chains, and a suitable notion of chains in metric spaces is given by Ambrosio–Kirchheimʼs theory of metric currents. The notion of weak differentiability we introduce is in analogy with Heinonen–Koskelaʼs concept of upper gradients of functions. In one of the main results of our paper, we prove continuity estimates for cochains with p-integrable upper gradient in n-dimensional Lie groups endowed with a left-invariant Finsler metric. Our result general…
Pestov identities and X-ray tomography on manifolds of low regularity
2021
We prove that the geodesic X-ray transform is injective on scalar functions and (solenoidally) on one-forms on simple Riemannian manifolds $(M,g)$ with $g \in C^{1,1}$. In addition to a proof, we produce a redefinition of simplicity that is compatible with rough geometry. This $C^{1,1}$-regularity is optimal on the H\"older scale. The bulk of the article is devoted to setting up a calculus of differential and curvature operators on the unit sphere bundle atop this non-smooth structure.
Wolfe's theorem for weakly differentiable cochains
2014
Abstract A fundamental theorem of Wolfe isometrically identifies the space of flat differential forms of dimension m in R n with the space of flat m -cochains, that is, the dual space of flat chains of dimension m in R n . The main purpose of the present paper is to generalize Wolfe's theorem to the setting of Sobolev differential forms and Sobolev cochains in R n . A suitable theory of Sobolev cochains has recently been initiated by the second and third author. It is based on the concept of upper norm and upper gradient of a cochain, introduced in analogy with Heinonen–Koskela's concept of upper gradient of a function.
