A question on certain elliptic PDE

Consider the elliptic PDE $$(CR)\;\;\;\;\;\;\begin{cases} U_{xx}=V_{yy}\\U_{yy}=-V_{xx} \end{cases}$$ And its consequence $$(LAP)\;\;\;\;\;\;U_{xxxx}+U_{yyyy}=0$$. Somehow, these equations are ...

Laplace spectrum of the $2$-Sphere [closed]

The $2$-sphere $S^2$ endowed with usual round metric, we have a Laplacian operator $\Delta_{\mathrm{d}} = \mathrm{d}^*\mathrm{d} + \mathrm{d}\mathrm{d}^*$ acting on functions. The eigenvalues of this ...

Alternative to well-known trace estimate in Riemannian geometry?

Let $g,\hat{g}$ be two Riemannian metrics with volume forms $dv_g$, $dv_{\hat{g}}$, respectively. A standard estimate in the subject is the following: $$\text{tr}_g(\hat{g}) \leq \text{tr}_{\hat{g}} (...

The Monge- Ampère equation with a non positive right hand side

Let $\Omega$ be a domain, $u$ and $f$ are real valued functions on $\Omega$, $(u_{ij})$ is the Hessian matrix of $u$. The function $f$ may change sign: that said, do there exist solutions for the ...

A question about considering the solution of elliptic PDE with complex Laplacian as the critical point of a functional

I'm considering the elliptic PDE with complex Laplacian, for example, write $$ \Delta_c(\cdot):=-g^{i \bar{j}} \partial_i \partial_{\bar{j}}(\cdot), $$ and $$\Delta_c(u)=f,$$ by [P.Gauduchon, Math.Ann,...

Green’s function vector bundle laplacian

On a compact Riemann surface with a metric, there exists a Green’s function $C ln(d(x,y)^2)\leq G(x,y)\leq 0$ satisfying $u=\int u+ \int G(x,y) u(y) dy$. Suppose $(E,h)$ is a Hermitian holomorphic ...

To study the elliptic PDE on complex manifold, when can we treat it as the real case?

I wonder when studying the elliptic PDE on complex manifold, especially studying the existence of solutions, when can we directly study the real case, for example, when studying $$\Delta_c u = f(x,u),$...
