Asymptotics of Laplace-Dirichlet integrals (Q750966): Difference between revisions

The basic result of the paper is a theorem on the complete asymptotic expansion of the Laplace-Dirichlet integral \[ L_{\lambda}(\nu):=\inf \{\int_{M}\exp (\lambda S)| \omega |^ mdM:\;d\omega =0,\quad \omega \sim \nu \in H^ 1\}, \] where M is a compact, orientable, n- dimensional \(C^{\infty}\) manifold without boundary, \(m>1\) and dM is the volume element. The result is based on the asymptotic solution of the corresponding variational equation, which is a nonlinear elliptic equation with small parameter for the high derivatives.
