Conformal maps of Carnot groups
If f is a conformal mapping defined on a connected open subset of a Carnot group G, then either f is the composition of a translation, a dilation and an isometry, or G is the nilpotent Iwasawa component of a real rank 1 simple Lie group S, and f arises from the action of S on G, viewed as an open subset of S/P, where P is a parabolic subgroup of G and ...

Convex functions on Carnot groups
We consider the definition and regularity properties of convex functions in Carnot groups. We show that various notions of convexity in the subelliptic setting that have appeared in the literature are equivalent. Our point of view is based on thinking of convex functions as subsolutions of homogeneous elliptic equations.

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.

On the codimension of the abnormal set in step two Carnot groups [PDF]
In this article we prove that the codimension of the abnormal set of the endpoint map for certain classes of Carnot groups of step 2 is at least three.

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 ...

Tangent Maps and Tangent Groupoid for Carnot Manifolds [PDF]
This paper studies the infinitesimal structure of Carnot manifolds. By a Carnot manifold we mean a manifold together with a subbundle filtration of its tangent bundle which is compatible with the Lie bracket of vector fields. We introduce a notion of differential, called Carnot differential, for Carnot manifolds maps (i.e., maps that are compatible ...

Nonlocal diffusion equations in Carnot groups
Let $G$ be a Carnot group. We study nonlocal diffusion equations in a domain $ $ of $G$ of the form $$ u_t^ (x,t)=\int_{G}\frac{1}{ ^2}K_ (x,y)(u^ (y,t)-u^ (x,t))\,dy, \qquad x\in $$ with $u^ =g(x,t)$ for $x\notin $. For appropriate rescaled kernel $K_ $ we prove that solutions $u^ $, when $ \rightarrow0$, uniformly approximate the ...

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 ...
