As a corollary, a geometrically intrinsic div-curl lemma for tensor fields on Riemannian manifolds is obtained. Then we show how this intrinsic div-curl lemma can be employed to establish the global weak rigidity of the Gauss-Codazzi-Ricci equations, the Cartan formalism, and the corresponding isometric immersions of Riemannian submanifolds.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-10-01T23:31:26.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "53C24", "53C42", "53C21", "53C45", "57R42", "35M30", "35B35", "58A15", "58J10", "57R40", "58A14", "58A17", "58A05", "58K30", "58Z05" ], "keywords": [ "isometric immersions", "banach spaces", "compensated compactness", "geometrically intrinsic div-curl lemma", "weak rigidity problem" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 22, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
