We prove a topological rigidity theorem for closed hypersurfaces of the Euclidean sphere and of an elliptic space form. It asserts that, under a lower bound hypothesis on the absolute value of the principal curvatures, the hypersurface is…
In this article, we study hypersurfaces $\Sigma\subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ with constant weighted mean curvature. Recently, Wei-Peng proved a rigidity theorem for CWMC hypersurfaces that generalizes Le-Sesum classification theorem for…

We generalize Cauchy's celebrated theorem on the global rigidity of convex polyhedra in Euclidean $3$-space $\mathbb{E}^{3}$ to the context of circle polyhedra in the $2$-sphere $\mathbb{S}^{2}$. We prove that any two convex and proper…
The purpose of this paper is to give a counterexample of Theorem 10.4 in [Ann. of Math. 102 (1975), 223-290]. In the Harvey-Lawson paper, a global result is claimed, but only a local result is proven. This theorem has had a big impact on CR…
The first main result is a topological rigidity theorem for complete immersed hypersurfaces of spherical space forms which extends similar results due to do Carmo/Warner, Wang/Xia and Longa/Ripoll. Under certain sharp conditions on the…
A complex filling of a CR manifold is said to be equivariant with respect to a CR action if the action extends to a smooth action by biholomorphisms on the whole filling. Under a noncompactness condition for the action, we describe all…
We discover a new Poincar\'e type phenomenon by establishing an optimal rigidity theorem for local CR mappings between circle bundles that are defined in a canonical way over (possibly reducible) bounded symmetric domains. We prove such a…
We obtain an embedding theorem for compact strongly pseudoconvex CR manifolds which are bounadries of some complete Hermitian manifolds. We use this to compactify some negatively curved Kaehler manifolds with compact strongly pseudoconvex…
The convexity theorem of Atiyah and Guillemin-Sternberg says that any connected compact manifold with Hamiltonian torus action has a moment map whose image is the convex hull of the image of the fixed point set. Sjamaar-Lerman proved that…
We state that any constant curvature Riemannian metric with conical singularities of constant sign curvature on a compact (orientable) surface $S$ can be realized as a convex polyhedron in a Riemannian or Lorentzian) space-form. Moreover…
We revisit and generalize a recent result of Cederbaum [C2, C3] concerning the rigidity of the Schwarzschild manifold for spin manifolds. This includes the classical black hole uniqueness theorems [BM, GIS, Hw] as well as the more recent…
The notion of Schwarzian derivative for locally univalent holomorphic functions on complex plane was generalized for conformal diffeomorphisms by Osgood and Stowe in 1992 [27]. We shall identify a tensor that may serve as an analogue of the…
We prove some existence results for the Webster scalar curvature problem on the Heisenberg group and on the unit sphere of ${\mathbb C}^{n+1}$, under the assumption of some natural symmetries of the prescribed curvatures. We use variational…
The aim of the paper is to investigate the rigidity and the deformability of pseudoholomorphic curves in the nearly K{\"a}hler sphere $\mathbb{S}^6,$ among minimal surfaces in spheres. Under various assumptions we describe the moduli space…
The H-principle, which is the analogue, for CR manifolds, of the classical Hartogs principle in several complex variables, is known to be valid in the small on a pseudoconcave CR manifold of any codimension. However it fails in the large,…
On a compact manifold with boundary, the map consisting of the scalar curvature in the interior and the mean curvature on the boundary is a local surjection at generic metrics. Moreover, this result may be localized to compact subdomains in…
Let $M$ be a finite volume analytic pseudo-Riemannian manifold that admits an isometric $G$-action with a dense orbit, where $G$ is a connected non-compact simple Lie group. For low-dimensional $M$, i.e. $\dim(M) < 2\dim(G)$, when the…
This paper deals with the generalization of usual round spheres in the flat Minkowski spacetime to the case of a generic four-dimensional spacetime manifold $M$. We consider geometric properties of sphere-like submanifolds in $M$ and…
