First the authors prove a diffeomorphic result of such an n-m2nifold with nonnegative sectional curvature, which improves Marenich-Toponogov's theorem. As an application, a rigidity theorem is obtained for nonnegatively curved open manifold which contains a clesed geodesic. Next the authors prove a theorem about the nonexistence of closed geodesics for Riemannian manifolds with sectional curvature bounded from below by a negative constant.展开更多

The Liouville type theorem about the p-harmonic map with finite L^q-energy from complete submanifold in a partially nonnegatively curved manifold to non-positively curved manifold is also obtained.展开更多
