Heat and entropy flows in Carnot groups [PDF]
We prove the correspondence between the solutions of the sub-elliptic heat equation in a Carnot group \mathbb G and the gradient flows of the relative entropy functional in the Wasserstein space of probability measures on \mathbb G ...

Conformal and CR mappings on Carnot groups [PDF]
We consider a class of stratified groups with a CR structure and a compatible control distance. For these Lie groups we show that the space of conformal maps coincide with the space of CR and anti-CR diffeomorphisms. Furthermore, we prove that on products of such groups, all CR and anti-CR maps are product maps, up to a permutation isomorphism, and ...

Subelliptic and parametric equations on Carnot groups [PDF]
This article concerns a class of elliptic equations on Carnot groups depending on one real parameter. Our approach is based on variational methods. More precisely, we establish the existence of at least two weak solutions for the treated problem by using a direct consequence of the celebrated Pucci-Serrin theorem and of a local minimum result for ...

Nonexistence Results for Semilinear Equations in Carnot Groups
In this paper, following [3], we provide some nonexistence results for semilinear equations in the the class of Carnot groups of type ★.This class, see [20], contains, in particular, all groups of step 2; like the Heisenberg group, and also Carnot ...

A metric characterization of Carnot groups [PDF]
We give a short axiomatic introduction to Carnot groups and their subRiemannian and subFinsler geometry. We explain how such spaces can be metrically described as exactly those proper geodesic spaces that admit dilations and are isometrically homogeneous.

A sufficient condition for nonrigidity of Carnot groups [PDF]
In this article we consider contact mappings on Carnot groups. Namely, we are interested in those mappings whose differential preserves the horizontal space, defined by the first stratum of the natural stratification of the Lie algebra of a Carnot group.

Geometric inequalities in Carnot groups [PDF]
Let $\GG$ be a sub-Riemannian $k$-step Carnot group of homogeneous dimension $Q$. In this paper, we shall prove several geometric inequalities concerning smooth hypersurfaces (i.e. codimension one submanifolds) immersed in $\GG$, endowed with the $\HH$-perimeter measure.

Regularity for quasilinear PDEs in Carnot groups via Riemannian approximation
We study the interior regularity of weak solutions to subelliptic quasilinear PDEs in Carnot groups of the formΣi=1m1Xi (Φ(|∇Hu|2)Xiu) = 0. Here ∇Hu = (X1u,...,Xmiu) is the horizontal gradient, δ > 0 and the exponent p ∈ [2, p*), where p* depends on ...

A reverse coarea-type inequality in Carnot groups
. We prove a coarea-type inequality for a continuously Pansu differentiable function acting between two Carnot groups endowed with homogeneous distances. We assume that the level sets of the function are uniformly lower Ahlfors regular and that the Pansu ...
