Every immersion can be deformed to have only transverse self-intersections

I asked this question some time ago in MSE, but obtained no answer. Maybe this is the right place to post it. Let $f : M^n \to \overline{M}^{n+k}$ be an immersion between smooth manifolds. Is it true …

Is Gauss map of a free boundary convex disk a diffeomorphism?

I asked this question on MSE, but obtained no answer. Maybe this is the right place to post it. Let $D$ be a properly embedded free boundary disk in the closed unit ball $\mathbb{B}^3$ of $\mathbb{R}^ …

Is the space of analytic sections of a vector bundle a Fréchet space?

Let $\pi : E \to M$ a smooth vector bundle of finite rank, where both $E$ and $M$ are finite dimensional smooth manifolds, and $M$ is compact. I already know that the space $\Gamma^\infty(M,E)$ of smo …

Metric under Ricci flow on a 2-sphere can be realized by embedding

I am sorry if this is a silly question, but I am new to Ricci flows. Let $\Sigma \subset \mathbb{R}^3$ be a smoothly embedded sphere, and denote its metric (induced by $\mathbb{R}^3$) by $g$. Suppose …

How is this product of tensors defined?

I am reading the paper “ The first eigenvalue of a small geodesic ball in a riemannian manifold”, by Karp and Pinsky, from where I took the following: Here, $\Delta_{-2}$ denotes the usual Laplacian …

Is the volume functional analytic in the space of embeddings? What about locally?

Let $(M^{n+1},g)$ be an analytic Riemannian manifold and let $\Sigma^n$ be a closed analytic manifold. Denote by $\operatorname{Emb}(\Sigma, M)$ the space of all smooth (or maybe analytic) two-sided e …

Compressing a hypersurface on the sphere

Let $M^n$ be a compact, connected, orientable hypersurface of the unit sphere $S^{n+1} \subset \mathbb{R}^{n+2}$. Suppose $M$ is contained in the northern hemisphere $S_+^{n+1}$ and has nonzero princi …

Can this integral be made nonpositive?

Let $M^2 \subset \mathbb{S}^3$ be a closed and orientable embedded (and minimal, if important) surface. Choose a unit normal vector field $\eta: M \to \mathbb{S}^3$ along $M$ and a point $p_0 \in \mat …

Behaviour of mass for currents with disjoint supports

I am sorry if this is a basic question, but I don't think in MSE I will receive any answers. Let $(M^3,g)$ be a compact and oriented Riemannian $3$-manifold. Let $\alpha$ and $\beta$ be the integral c …

Prescribing variations that preserve the area

Let $(M^3,g)$ be a Riemannian manifold and let $\varphi : \Sigma \to M$ be a two-sided embedding of a closed surface into $M$, with a unit normal $N$. Suppose that $\varphi$ is a regular point of the …

Is the normalized Ricci flow real analytic in the time variable?

Let $(M^n,g)$ be a closed Riemannian manifold. In this paper, B. Kotschwar proved that the Ricci flow $g(t)$ with initial condition $g(0) = g$ is real analytic with respect to the time variable, for …

Finitely connected orientable surface

Let $(M,g)$ be a finitely connected orientable complete Riemannian surface, that is, $M$ is homeomorphic to a compact orientable surface $\Sigma$ minus $k \geq 1$ points. Do you have references or a p …
