Killing graphs with prescribed mean curvature (Q933769)

The authors define a notion of Killing graph in a class of Riemannian spaces endowed with a Killing vector field and solve the corresponding Dirichlet problem for prescribed mean curvature under a hypothesis involving domain data and the Ricci curvature of the ambient space which has a warped metric. Let \(M\) be a \((n+1)\)-dimensional Riemannian manifold endowed with a non-singular Killing vector field \(Y\) and let the distribution orthogonal to \(Y\) be integrable. The leaves are totally geodesic hypersurfaces. The flow lines of the flux \(\psi: \mathbb{R}\times\mathbb{P}\to M\) generated by \(Y\) are complete; where \(P\) is a fixed integral leaf. If \(\Omega\) is a bounded domain in \(P\), the Killing graph \(\Sigma\) associated to a function \(u\) on \(\overline\Omega\) is the following hypersurface: \[ \Sigma= \{q= \psi(u(p), p): p\in\overline\Omega\}. \] The authors results assure the existence of Killing graphs with prescribed mean curvature \(H\) and boundary data \(\varphi\), defined on \(\overline\Omega\) and \(\Gamma= \partial\Omega\), respectively.
