In this paper, it was shown that it is always possible to realize a geodesically complete Riemannian extension without curvature constraints, even in the presence of a convexity condition on the boundary.
Abstract
Given a metrically complete Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ with smooth nonempty boundary and assuming that one of its curvatures is subject to a certain bound, we address the problem of whether it is possibile to realize $(M,g)$ as a domain inside a geodesically complete Riemannian manifold $(M',g')$ without boundary, by preserving the same curvature bounds. In this direction we provide three kind of results: (1) a general existence theorem showing that it is always possible to obtain a geodesically complete Riemannian extension without curvature constraints; (2) various topological obstructions to the existence of a complete Riemannian extension with prescribed sectional and Ricci curvature bounds; (3) some existence results of complete Riemannian extensions with sectional and Ricci curvature bounds, mostly in the presence of a convexity condition on the boundary.

The Steklov and Laplacian spectra of Riemannian manifolds with boundary

TL;DR: In this article, the existence of a constant C such that | σ k − λ k | ≤ C for each k ∈ N is proved. And the constant C depends only on the geometry of Ω 1 ≅ Ω 2.

Dirichlet parabolicity and L1-Liouville property under localized geometric conditions

TL;DR: In this paper, a new light on the L 1 -Liouville property for positive, superharmonic functions is shed by providing many evidences that its validity relies on geometric conditions localized on large enough portions of the space.

A First Course in Sobolev Spaces

TL;DR: Leoni as discussed by the authors takes a novel approach to the theory by looking at Sobolev spaces as the natural development of monotone, absolutely continuous, and BV functions of one variable.
