For a 1-parameter family of metrics, how do we compute the derivative of the intrinsic geometrical objects like curvature, Hessian, etc
Consider a family of metrics and functions $(g(t), u(t))$ on $M:= \mathbb{R}^3 \setminus B_1$ satisfying
$$ g(0) = g_0, \quad g'(0) = \tilde g, \quad u(0) = u_0, \quad u'(0) = \tilde u$$
where $g_0$, $...

Projection of a real analytic manifold onto subspace is union of real analytic submanifolds
Let $M$ be a compact connected real analytic submanifold of the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{n} \times \mathbb{R}$ and denote by $\pi : \mathbb{R}^{n} \times \mathbb{R} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^{n}$ the ...

Reference for the rectifiablity of the boundary hypersurface of convex open set
The boundary of any convex open set $X$ is $\mathbb R^n$ is a rectifiable hypersurface.
To see this, intuitively, simply take a sphere $S_d$ with diameter $d\in(0,+\infty]$ that contains $X$. The ...

Approximation of a continuous function by a smooth one on an open set
I'm interested in the following kind of theorems :
Let $M$ be a real analytic manifold and $U$ an open set of $M$. Let $f : U \to \mathbb{R}$ a continuous function. Then, there is a $C_{\infty}$ ...

On two functions with isodirectional gradients
Let $U\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be open and $f,g:U \to \mathbb{R}$ be two $C^1$ functions whose gradients are always in the same direction, i.e. $\forall i,j \in \left\{1,...,n\right\}$
\begin{equation}
(\...

Are Carnot groups (as Carnot Caratheodory metric spaces) doubling?
I need to use the Lebesgue differentiation theorem for doubling metric measure spaces and was wondering if Carnot groups are doubling. If yes, is there any reference you can point me to? Thank you.

Morse lemma with least amount of regularity.
I recently came across with $C^2$ Morse functions in my work and as I was reviewing some of the stuff I learned about Morse theory, I noticed that all the proofs of the Morse lemma I could come across ...

Surjectivity of "nice maps" from local properties
What tools are available from real algebraic geometry, analysis and
topology to check surjectivity of a map $f:M_{1}\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^{d}$
from local properties and maybe function values?

Reference for Hodge decomposition
Let $U$ be a bounded open subset of $\mathbb{R}^d$ with Lipschitz boundary, and $g \in L^2(U,\mathbb{R}^d)$ be a solenoidal vector field (i.e. $\nabla \cdot g = 0$). Then $g$ can be written in the ...
