Analytic continuation of $\int_V (f(x_1,\cdots,x_n))^s dx_i$

Let $V$ be an $n$-dimensional simplex, let $f(\boldsymbol{x}) = f(x_1,\cdots,x_n)\in \mathbb{C}[x_1,\cdots,x_n]$ be a product of linear polynomials that is non-zero in interior of $V$. Also let $E(\...

Is it possible for all of the smooth/continuous curves in $R^3$ to form a Hilbert space? [closed]

Under which condition can it form a Hilbert space? Or what space can it form? You can write down certain condition to make it to be a Hilbert space, e.g., Let $$p(t)=[x(t),y(t),z(t)]^T\in \text{R}^3$$ ...

Prescribing a gradient direction

Let $\Omega= \{(x,y) : \frac{1}{2} \leq x^2+y^2 \leq 1\}$ and $S = \{(x,y) : x^2+y^2 = 1\}$ the unit circle, and $X=w^{1.\infty}(\Omega;\mathbb{R})$ the space of Lipschitz valued functions. We denote ...

Sard's Theorem For Banach Spaces

Given a smooth map from $\phi: B \rightarrow M$ where $B$ is a Banach Space and $M$ is a finite dimensional smooth manifold (for example, the end point map for a control system), what is the strongest ...

Poincare lemma for non-smooth differentiable forms

The Poincare lemma is almost always formulated for differential forms with smooth coefficients (or sometimes for currents that have distributional coefficients). I would like to have it for $C^k$-...

Pseudo-differential operators with compactly supported symbols

If the symbol $p(x,\xi)$ of a pseudodifferential operator $P$ has compact $x$-support, then for any Schwartz function $f$, $Pf$ has compact $x$-support. Is the reverse true? Namely that if some PDO $...

Constructing a Sobolev space containing the differential k-forms of a Riemannian manifold

I am currently writing a paper about the Hodge theorem for an algebraic topology course. The specific formulation I am proving can be stated thus. Let $M$ be a compact, orientable n-dimensional ...

Solutions to Heat Equations with Obstacles!

Consider a closed Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ and a positive function $\psi: M \to R$. Fix a point $p \in M$, I have been struggling to construct a solution to the heat equation, $\partial_t u = \...

A differential inequality needed to prove a theorem about odd-dimensional souls

I need a solution to this problem (which is really a calculus problem) in order to prove a rigidity result for open nonnegatively curved manifolds with odd-dimensional souls: Suppose that $f,g:\...

Reference for a particular Radon transform on non-positively curved spaces

Let me first recall that the classical Radon transform takes a (smooth compactly supported, say) function $f$ defined on $\mathbb{R}^n$ as an input, and gives as output the map $H\mapsto \int_H f$ for ...

Examples of loss of regularity by "creation of topology"

I would like to have a list as general as possible of examples of situations where the density of smooth objects into some "natural class" (the meaning of "natural" depending on the problem considered)...
