In this paper, we study $n$-dimensional complete minimal hypersurfaces in a hyperbolic space $H^{n+1}(-1)$ of constant curvature $-1$. We prove that a $3$-dimensional complete minimal hypersurface with constant scalar curvature in $H^{4}(-1)$ satisfies $S\leq \frac{21}{29}$ by making use of the Generalized Maximum Principle, where $S$ denotes the squared norm of the second fundamental form of the hypersurface., Comment: 17pages

In the paper, we construct, for $\lambda>0$, complete embedded and non-convex $\lambda$-hypersurfaces, which are diffeomorphic to a cylinder. Hence, one can not expect that $\lambda$-hypersurfaces share a common conclusion on the planar domain conjecture even if the planar domain conjecture of T. Ilmanen for self-shrinkers of mean curvature flow are solved by Brendle \cite{B} affirmatively. Furthermore, for a fixed $\lambda<0$ which may have small $|\lambda|$, we can construct two compact embedded $\lambda$-hypersurfaces which are diffeomorphic to $\mathbb{S}^{1}\times \mathbb{S}^{n-1}$, but they are not isometric to each other., Comment: Comments are welcome

We give a lower bound of the scalar curvature for $4$-dimensional complete hypersurfaces with $w$-constant mean curvature. As a by-product, we give a new proof of the result of Deng-Gu-Wei under the weaker topological condition.

In the paper, we construct compact embedded $\lambda$-hypersurfaces which are diffeomorphic to a sphere and are not isometric to a standard sphere.

We should remark that the condition of polynomial volume growth is not assumed.

A well-known conjecture of Yau states that the area of one of Clifford minimal hypersurfaces $S^k\big{(}\sqrt{\frac{k}{n}}\, \big{)}\times S^{n-k}\big{(}\sqrt{\frac{n-k}{n}}\, \big{)}$ gives the lowest value of area among all non-totally geodesic compact minimal hypersurfaces in the unit sphere $S^{n+1}(1)$. The present paper shows that Yau conjecture is true for minimal rotational hypersurfaces, more precisely, the area $|M^n|$ of compact minimal rotational hypersurface $M^n$ is either equal to $|S^n(1)|$, or equal to $|S^1(\sqrt{\frac{1}{n}})\times S^{n-1}(\sqrt{\frac{n-1}{n}})|$, or greater than $2(1-\frac{1}{\pi})|S^1(\sqrt{\frac{1}{n}})\times S^{n-1}(\sqrt{\frac{n-1}{n}})|$. As the application, the entropies of some special self-shrinkers are estimated., Comment: Comments are welcome

This paper studies eigenvalues of the clamped plate problem on a bounded domain in an $n$-dimensional Euclidean space. We give an estimate for the gap between $\sqrt {\Gamma_{k+1}-\Gamma_{1}}$ and $\sqrt {\Gamma_{k}-\Gamma_{1}}$, for any positive integer $k$. According to the asymptotic formula of Agmon and Pleijel, we know, the gap between $\sqrt {\Gamma_{k+1}-\Gamma_{1}}$ and $\sqrt {\Gamma_{k}-\Gamma_{1}}$ is bounded by a term with a lower order $k^{\frac1n}$ in the sense of the asymptotic formula of Agmon and Peijel, where $\Gamma_j$ denotes the $j^{^{\text{th}}}$ eigenvalue of the clamped plate problem.

It is our purpose to study complete self-shrinkers in Euclidean space. First of all, we show some examples of complete self-shrinkers without polynomial volume growth. By making use of the generalized maximum principle for $\mathcal{L}$-operator, we give a complete classification for 2-dimensional complete self-shrinkers with constant squared norm of the second fundamental form in $\mathbb R^3$. In \cite{DX2}, Ding and Xin have proved this result under the assumption of polynomial volume growth, which is removed in our theorem., Comment: 6 pages

The recently discovered layered BiS2-based superconductors have attracted a great deal of interest due to their structural similarity to cuprate and iron-pnictide superconductors. We have performed Raman scattering measurements on two superconducting crystals NdO0.5F0.5BiS2 (Tc = 4.5 K) and NdO0.7F0.3BiS2 (Tc = 4.8 K). The observed Raman phonon modes are assigned with the aid of first-principles calculations. The asymmetrical phonon mode around 118 cm-1 reveals a small electron-phonon (e-ph) coupling constant 0.16, which is insufficient to generate superconductivity at ~ 4.5 K. In the Raman spectra there exists a clear temperature-dependent hump around 100 cm-1, which can be well understood in term of inter-band vertical transitions around Fermi surface. The transitions get boosted when the particular rectangular-like Fermi surface meets band splitting caused by spin-orbit coupling. It enables a unique and quantitative insight into the band splitting., Comment: 18 pages including suppl. materials, 8 figures, 35 references

Since $n$-dimensional $\lambda$-hypersurfaces in the Euclidean space $\mathbb {R}^{n+1}$ are critical points of the weighted area functional for the weighted volume-preserving variations, in this paper, we study the rigidity properties of complete $\lambda$-hypersurfaces. We give a gap theorem of complete $\lambda$-hypersurfaces with polynomial area growth. By making use of the generalized maximum principle for $\mathcal L$ of $\lambda$-hypersurfaces, we prove a rigidity theorem of complete $\lambda$-hypersurfaces., Comment: Comments are welcome

In this paper, we introduce a definition of $\lambda$-hypersurfaces of weighted volume-preserving mean curvature flow in Euclidean space. We prove that $\lambda$-hypersurfaces are critical points of the weighted area functional for the weighted volume-preserving variations. Furthermore, we classify complete $\lambda$-hypersurfaces with polynomial area growth and $H-\lambda\geq 0$, which are generalizations of the results due to Huisken, Colding-Minicozzi. We also define a $\mathcal{F}$-functional and study $\mathcal{F}$-stability of $\lambda$-hypersurfaces, which extend a result of Colding-Minicozzi. Lower bound growth and upper bound growth of the area for complete and non-compact $\lambda$-hypersurfaces are also studied., Comment: 46 pages

Electron-phonon coupling (EPC) is one of the most common and fundamental interactions in solids. It not only dominates many basic dynamic processes like resistivity, thermal conductivity etc, but also provides the pairing glue in conventional superconductors. But in high-temperature superconductors (HTSC), it is still controversial whether or not EPC is in favor of paring. Despite the controversies, many experiments have provided clear evidence for EPC in HTSC. In this paper, we briefly review EPC in cuprate and iron-based superconducting systems revealed by Raman scattering. We introduce how to extract the coupling information through phonon lineshape. Then we discuss the strength of EPC in different HTSC systems and possible factors affecting the strength. The comparative study between Raman phonon theories and experiments allows us to gain insight into some crucial electronic properties, especially superconductivity. Finally we summarize and compare EPC in the two existing HTSC systems, and discuss what role it may play in HTSC., Comment: review article, 25 pages,16 figures, 1 table, 161 references

In this paper we study eigenvalues of the closed eigenvalue problem of the Witten-Laplacian on an $n$-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold. Estimates for eigenvalues are given. As applications, we give a sharp upper bound for the $k^{\text{th}}$ eigenvalue and for isoparametric minimal hypersurfaces in the unit sphere, an explicit upper bound of the $(n+3)^{\text{th}}$ eigenvalue of the Laplacian is obtained. Furthermore, we generalize the Reilly's result on the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian., Comment: From the remark [arXiv:1304.3813] of Professor S. Ilias, we will withdraw this paper [arXiv:1304.3212] from arXiv. In fact, we did not know the relation of Witten-Laplacian and Schr\"odinger operator before his remark. Hence, we would like to thank Professor Ilias for his information

In this paper, we study complete self-shrinkers in Euclidean space and prove that an $n$-dimensional complete self-shrinker with polynomial volume growth in Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ is isometric to either $\mathbb{R}^{n}$, $S^{n}(\sqrt{n})$, or $\mathbb{R}^{n-m}\times S^m (\sqrt{m})$, $1\leq m\leq n-1$, if the squared norm $S$ of the second fundamental form is constant and satisfies $S<(10/7)$., Comment: All comments are welcome

For an $n$-dimensional polytope $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$, we study lower bounds for eigenvalues of the Dirichlet eigenvalue problem of the Laplacian. In the asymptotic formula on the average of the first $k$ eigenvalues, Li and Yau (1983) obtained the first term with the order $k^{\frac2n}$, which is optimal. The next landmark goal is to give the second term with the order $k^{\frac1n}$ in the asymptotic formula. For this purpose, Kova\v{r}\'{\i}k, Vugalter and Weidl (2009) have made an important breakthrough in the case of dimension 2. It is our purpose to study the $n$-dimensional case for arbitrary dimension $n$. We obtain the second term in the asymptotic sense., Comment: 15 pages

It is our purpose to study complete self-shrinkers in Euclidean space. By introducing a generalized maximum principle for $\mathcal{L}$-operator, we give estimates on supremum and infimum of the squared norm of the second fundamental form of self-shrinkers without assumption on \emph{polynomial volume growth}, which is assumed in Cao and Li. Thus, we can obtain the rigidity theorems on complete self-shrinkers without assumption on \emph{polynomial volume growth}. For complete proper self-shrinkers of dimension 2 and 3, we give a classification of them under assumption of constant squared norm of the second fundamental form., Comment: 10 pages, a revised version

In this paper, we study eigenvalues of the closed eigenvalue problem of the differential operator $ L$, which is introduced by Colding and Minicozzi in [4], on an $n$-dimensional compact self-shrinker in ${R}^{n+p}$. Estimates for eigenvalues of the differential operator $ L$ are obtained. Our estimates for eigenvalues of the differential operator $ L$ are sharp. Furthermore, we also study the Dirichlet eigenvalue problem of the differential operator $ L$ on a bounded domain with a piecewise smooth boundary in an $n$-dimensional complete self-shrinker in $ {R}^{n+p}$. For Euclidean space $ {R}^{n}$, the differential operator $ L$ becomes the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator in stochastic analysis. Hence, we also give estimates for eigenvalues of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator., Comment: 21 pages, a final version, accepted for publication in Communications in Contemporary Mathematics

We have successfully synthesized S = 1/2 kagome antiferromagnets MCu3(OH)6Cl2 (M = Ni and Co) by hydrothermal method with rotating pressure vessel. Structural characterization shows that both compounds have the similar crystal structure as ZnCu3(OH)6Cl2 with R-3m symmetry. Similar to ZnCu3(OH)6Cl2, the compounds show no obvious hysteresis at 2 K. A spin glass transition is found in both NiCu3(OH)6Cl2 and CoCu3(OH)6Cl2 at low temperatures (6.0 and 3.5 K respectively) by AC susceptibility measurements. It indicates no long-range magnetic order and a strong spin frustration. The substitution of Zn2+ by magnetic ions Ni2+ or Co2+, effectively enhances interlayer exchange coupling and changes the ground state of the kagome spin system., Comment: 14 pages, 6 figures and 1 table

For a bounded domain $\Omega$ with a piecewise smooth boundary in a complete Riemannian manifold $M$, we study eigenvalues of the Dirichlet eigenvalue problem of the Laplacian. By making use of a fact that eigenfunctions form an orthonormal basis of $L^2(\Omega)$ in place of the Rayleigh-Ritz formula, we obtain inequalities for eigenvalues of the Laplacian. In particular, for lower order eigenvalues, our results extend the results of Chen and Cheng \cite{CC}., Comment: 17 pages

This paper studies eigenvalues of the buckling problem of arbitrary order on bounded domains in Euclidean spaces and spheres. We prove universal bounds for the k-th eigenvalue in terms of the lower ones independent of the domains. Our results strengthen the recent work in [28] and generalize Cheng-Yang's recent estimates [16] on the buckling eigenvalues of order two to arbitrary order., Comment: 20 pages

Let $\om $ be a bounded domain in an $n$-dimensional Euclidean space $\Bbb R^n$. We study eigenvalues of an eigenvalue problem of a system of elliptic equations: $$ \{\aligned &\Delta {\mathbf u}+ \alpha{\rm grad}(\text{div}{\mathbf u})=-\sigma {\mathbf u}, \ \text{in $\Omega$}, &{\mathbf u}|_{\partial \Omega}={\mathbf 0}. \aligned . $$ Estimates for eigenvalues of the above eigenvalue problem are obtained. Furthermore, we obtain an upper bound on the $(k+1)^{\text{th}}$ eigenvalue $\sigma_{k+1}$. We also obtain sharp lower bound for the first eigenvalue of two kinds of eigenvalue problems of the biharmonic operator on compact manifolds with boundary and positive Ricci curvature., Comment: 19 pages. This is a revised version. Since the third and forth authors also prove similar results to the first version. We decide to write this joint work

For a bounded domain $\Omega$ in a complete Riemannian manifold $M^n$, we study estimates for lower order eigenvalues of a clamped plate problem. We obtain universal inequalities for lower order eigenvalues. We would like to remark that our results are sharp.

In this paper, we study $n$-dimensional hypersurfaces with constant $m^{\text{th}}$ mean curvature in a unit sphere $S^{n+1}(1)$ and construct many compact nontrivial embedded hypersurfaces with constant $m^{\text{th}}$ mean curvature $H_m>0$ in $S^{n+1}(1)$, for $1\leq m\leq n-1$. In particular, if the $4^{\text{th}}$ mean curvature $H_4$ takes value between $\dfrac{1}{(\tan \frac{\pi}{k})^4}$ and $\dfrac{k^4-4}{n(n-4)}$ for any integer $k\geq3$, then there exists an $n$-dimensional ($n\geq 5$) compact nontrivial embedded hypersurface with constant $H_4$ in $S^{n+1}(1)$.
