We calculate the dimension of the locus of Jacobian elliptic surfaces over P1 with a given Picard number, in the corresponding moduli space.

We introduce and study an approximate solution of the p-Laplace equation, and a linearlization L_{ε} of a perturbed p-Laplace operator. By deriving an L_{ε}-type Bochner's formula and Kato type inequalities, we prove a Liouville type theorem for weakly p-harmonic functions with finite p-energy on a complete noncompact manifold M which supports a weighted Poincaré inequality and satisfies a curvature assumption. This nonexistence result, when combined with an existence theorem, yields in turn some information on topology, i.e. such an M has at most one p-hyperbolic end. Moreover, we prove a Liouville type theorem for strongly p-harmonic functions with finite q-energy on Riemannian manifolds. As an application, we extend this theorem to some p-harmonic maps such as p-harmonic morphisms and conformal maps between Riemannian manifolds. In particular, we obtain a Picard-type Theorem for p-harmonic morphisms.

We consider inverse curvature flows in $\Hh$ with star-shaped initial hypersurfaces and prove that the flows exist for all time, and that the leaves converge to infinity, become strongly convex exponentially fast and also more and more totally umbilic. After an appropriate rescaling the leaves converge in $C^\infty$ to a sphere.

In this paper, we will study the (linear) geometric analysis on metric measure spaces. We will establish a local Li-Yau’s estimate for weak solutions of the heat equation and prove a sharp Yau’s gradient gradient for harmonic functions on metric measure spaces, under the Riemannian curvature-dimension condition RCD(K; N).
