We present a family of superintegrable (SI) sytems living on a riemannian surface of revolution and which exhibits one linear integral and two integrals of any integer degree larger or equal to 2 in the momenta. When this degree is 2 one…

We introduce Gaussian-type measures on the manifold of all metrics with a fixed volume form on a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension $\geq 3$. For this random model we compute the characteristic function for the $L^2$ (Ebin) distance…

We classify manifolds of small dimension that admit both, a Riemannian metric of non-negative scalar curvature, and a -- a priori different -- metric for which all wedge products of harmonic forms are harmonic. For manifolds whose first…
