Stability for Serrin's problem and Alexandroff's theorem in warped product manifolds

Abstract

We prove quantitative versions for several results from geometric partial differential equations. Firstly, we obtain a double stability theorem for Serrin's overdetermined problem in spaceforms. Secondly, we prove stability theorems for Brendle's Heintze-Karcher inequality respectively constant mean curvature classification in a class of warped product spaces. The key tool is the first author's recent development of stability for level sets of a function under smallness of the traceless Hessian thereof.
