Summary |
Focusing on Sobolev inequalities and their applications to analysis on manifolds and Ricci flow, "Sobolev Inequalities, Heat Kernels under Ricci Flow, and the Poincare Conjecture" introduces the field of analysis on Riemann manifolds and uses the tools of Sobolev imbedding and heat kernel estimates to study Ricci flows, especially with surgeries. The author explains key ideas, difficult proofs, and important applications in a succinct, accessible, and unified manner. The book first discusses Sobolev inequalities in various settings, including the Euclidean case, the Riemannian case |
