Results are obtained on the scattering theory for the Schrödinger equation $$i\partial _t u(t,x) = - \Delta _x u(t,x) + V(t,x)u(t,x) + F(u(t,x))$$ in spaces$L$^{$r$}($R$;$L$^{$q$}($R$^{$d$})) for a certain range of$r, q$, the so-called space-time scattering. In the linear case (i.e.$F$≡)) the relation with usual configuration space scattering is established.

We construct balanced metrics on the family of non-Khler Calabi-Yau threefolds that are obtained by smoothing after contracting ( 1, 1) -rational curves on a Khler Calabi-Yau threefold. As an application, we construct balanced metrics on complex manifolds diffeomorphic to the connected sum of ( 1, 1) copies of ( 1, 1) .

We prove that many aspects of the differential geometry of embedded Riemannian manifolds can be formulated in terms of multi-linear algebraic structures on the space of smooth functions. In particular, we find algebraic expressions for Weingarten’s formula, the Ricci curvature, and the Codazzi-Mainardi equations. For matrix analogues of embedded surfaces, we define discrete curvatures and Euler characteristics, and a non-commutative GaussBonnet theorem is shown to follow. We derive simple expressions for the discrete Gauss curvature in terms of matrices representing the embedding coordinates, and explicit examples are provided. Furthermore, we illustrate the fact that techniques from differential geometry can carry over to matrix analogues by proving that a bound on the discrete Gauss curvature implies a bound on the eigenvalues of the discrete Laplace operator.
