Quantization of the Energy for the inhomogeneous Allen-Cahn mean curvature

Abstract

We consider the varifold associated to the Allen--Cahn phase transition problem in $\mathbb R^{n+1}$(or $n+1$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds with bounded curvature) with integral $L^{q_0}$ bounds on the Allen--Cahn mean curvature (first variation of the Allen--Cahn energy) in this paper. It is shown here that there is an equidistribution of energy between the Dirichlet and Potential energy in the phase field limit and that the associated varifold to the total energy converges to an integer rectifiable varifold with mean curvature in $L^{q_0}, q_0 > n$. The latter is a diffused version of Allard's convergence theorem for integer rectifiable varifolds.

Futaki invariant on Hopf manifolds

The Futaki invariant is a fundamental tool in Kähler geometry representing an obstruction to the existence of Kähler-Einstein metrics. Recently, it was generalized to compact complex manifolds. In this paper, we prove that it vanishes on Hopf manifolds.

Remarks on potential functions of noncompact quasi-Einstein manifolds

In this article, we study the set of potential functions on noncompact quasi-Einstein manifolds. We show that the space of all positive potential functions on a three-dimensional noncompact quasi-Einstein manifold has dimension at most two, and that equality holds if and only if the manifold is isometric to a product $B\times\mathbb{R}$, where $B$ is a $λ$-Einstein surface or one of the examples obtained by L. Berard Bergery and described in Besse's book. Moreover, we prove that any asymptotically flat $n$-dimensional quasi-Einstein manifold with $λ=0$ is necessarily Ricci-flat.

Adjusted connections on non-abelian bundle gerbes

Higher gauge theory for non-abelian structure 2-groups faces significant challenges when extending beyond the fake-flat sector, which suffers from limited applicability in physical models. A promising resolution involves equipping 2-groups with additional structure, known as adjustments. We present a comprehensive theory of adjusted connections on non-abelian bundle gerbes, classified by Saemann's adjusted version of non-abelian differential cohomology. This theory enables, in particular, a new coordinate-independent formulation of Tellez-Dominguez' lifting theorem, establishing a correspondence between adjusted connections on non-abelian bundle gerbes and connections on abelian bundle 2-gerbes.
