Sharp criteria for the existence of solutions to curvature equations with two singular sources on rectangular torus
Abstract
We study the following curvature equation with two singular sources on a flat torus Δu+eu=8π(δp+δ−p) on Eτ:=ℂ/(ℤ+ℤτ), where δp denotes the Dirac measure at p. The case ℘'(2p)=0 was solved by Kuo (J. Differential Geom. 2026). In this paper, we study the general case ℘'(2p)≠ 0. A novel phenomenon for ℘'(2p)≠ 0 is that the Hill discriminant of the associated generalized Lamé equation has an essential singularity. We develop new ideas to determine the intersection of two conditional stability sets completely, which is quite surprising since it seems impossible to determine the exact structure of these two sets due to the essential singularity. This leads to a sharp criteria for the existence and non-existence of solutions when Eτ is a rectangular torus and ℘(p)∈ ℝ.
