In this paper we introduce the isometric extension problem of isometric mappings between two unit spheres. Some important results of the related problems are outlined and the recent progress is mentioned.

We obtain a geometric lower bound for the Willmore functional∫∑H2dσ. This bound is an invariant involving the area of∑, the volume and Minkowski quermassintegrals of the convex body that∑bounds. We also obtain a sufficient condition for a convex body to contain another in the Euclidean space R4.展开更多

An adaptive mesh method for the moving boundary problem is adopted to solve the relevant equations and to determine frost/thaw depths, water content and temperature distribution. A series of sensitivity experiments by the numerical model under the periodic sinusoidal upper boundary condition for temperature are conducted to validate the model, and to investigate the effects of the model soil thickness, ground surface temperature, annual amplitude of ground surface temperature and thermal conductivity on frost/thaw depths and soil temperature. The simulated frost/thaw depths by the model with a periodical change of the upper boundary condition have the same period as that of the upper boundary condition, which shows that it can simulate the frost/thaw depths reasonably for a periodical forcing.展开更多

It is important that this paper provides a new method of studying a large class of the measurability problems, namely first converting the measurability problems to the abstract existence problems in the random metric theory and then combining the random metric theory and the relative theory of classical spaces so that the measurability problems can be eventually solved. The new method is based on the deep development of the random metric theory as well as on the subtle combination of the random metric theory with classical space theory.展开更多
