Joint BCAM-UPV/EHU Analysis and PDE seminar: Positivity and convexity properties for harmonic functions on the n-sphere
Date: Thu, Feb 10 2022
Hour: 12:00
Location: Online
Speakers: Racheli Yovel

Abstract
Consider a harmonic function defined on a spherical disc (an open ball contained in the sphere). In this talk I will discuss the nonnegativity of the iterated Laplace-Beltrami operator applied on a square of such a harmonic function. I will give an outline for the proof in 2 dimensions and of a generalization for any dimension. Furthermore, using spherical means, I will show how this property implies a strong convexity property for the radial L -growth function. The latter gives an inequality between the radial 2-norm of a harmonic function over three spherical circles (lattitudes), and thus it is a three-circles-type theorem. The talk is based on a joint work with Gabbor Lippner, Dan Mangoubi and Zachary McGuirk.
