    Mass center and Jost maps between Riemannian manifolds (English)
    0 references
    We define Jost maps between Riemannian manifolds using the notion of center of mass, and use this to explore geometrically some manifolds. We mainly prove that manifolds for which the identity is a Jost map are ball-homogeneous and are weakly and locally harmonic.NEWLINENEWLINEFor the entire collection see [Zbl 0958.00041].
