We prove that a foliation $(M, F)$ of codimension $q$ on a $n$-dimen\-sio\-nal pseudo-Riemannian manifold is pseudo-Riemannian if and only if any geodesic that is orthogonal at one point to a leaf is orthogonal to every leaf it intersects.…

A Riemannian metric is called Hessian if, locally, it can be written as the Hessian of a function called the Hessian potential. A (flat) Manin-Frobenius manifold is a flat Riemannian manifold furnished with a commutative and associative…

Let $M=G/K$ be a compact homogeneous space and assume that $G$ and $K$ have many simple factors. We show that the topological condition of having maximal third Betti number, in the sense that $b_3(M)=s-1$ if $G$ has $s$ simple factors, so…

We prove that if an orientable 3-manifold $M$ admits a complete Riemannian metric whose scalar curvature is positive and has a subquadratic decay at infinity, then it decomposes as a (possibly infinite) connected sum of spherical manifolds…

Consider a compact manifold $M$ with smooth boundary $\partial M$. Suppose that $g$ and $\tilde{g}$ are two Riemannian metrics on $M$. We construct a family of metrics on $M$ which agrees with $g$ outside a neighborhood of $\partial M$ and…

Let $M$ be a compact Riemannian manifold of nonnegative Ricci curvature and $\Sigma$ a compact embedded 2-sided minimal hypersurface in $M$. It is proved that there is a dichotomy: If $\Sigma$ does not separate $M$ then $\Sigma$ is totally…
