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 ...

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 $g_0$, $...

Extending Green's theorem from very special regions to more general regions

Green's theorem Let $C$ be a positively oriented and consists of a finite union of disjoint,piecewise smooth simple closed curve in a plane, and let $D$ be the region bounded by $C$. If $P$ and $Q$ ...

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} (\...

Help with a surface of delay differential equations

This question is difficult for me to phrase, as it's very much outside of my mathematical purview. This is a question which intersects directly with my research, but as I work predominantly in ...

Integrability conditions imply existence of potential

I'm looking for a proof of the following well-known theorem: If $f$ is a continuously differentiable vector field in a simply connected region $G\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ which satisfies the ...

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 ...
