Existence of nonparametric solutions for a capillary problem in warped products (Q482392): Difference between revisions

The authors study hypersurfaces of a Riemannian manifold endowed with a Killing vector field. This means that the ambient space can be seen as a warped product manifold, where one of the factors is \(1\)-dimensional. They recall the notion of Killing graph of a differential function, introduce a functional and its first variation formula. This is used to define a capillary-type equation which was also previously studied in [\textit{M. Dajczer} et al., Calc. Var. Partial Differ. Equ. 33, No. 2, 231--248 (2008; Zbl 1152.53046)] and [\textit{M. Dajczer} and \textit{J. H. de Lira}, J. Geom. Anal. 22, No. 3, 780--799 (2012; Zbl 1261.53058)]. The authors then study the existence of solutions given Neumann boundary conditions.
