Can anyone think of a conformal Killing vector field $W$ on $S^2$ with the round metric that is not Killing such that its divergence is $L^2$-orthogonal to the spherical harmonics with $\ell = 1$? One ...

A mapping $T: \Bbb R^n\to \Bbb R^n$ is said to be conformal if it is bijective and preserves angles, i.e., if $x, y: [0,1]\to \Bbb R^n$ are curves with $x(t_0)=y(t_0)$ then $$\cos (Tx(t_0),Ty(t_0))= \...

Let $Q = \{(x,y): x,y\geq 0\} $ be the 1st quadrant of $\mathbb R^2$, and $f$ is a function defined on it such that all the partial derivative(any order) of $f$ exists and continuous. By Whitney ...
