In this paper, we develop a loop group description of harmonic maps $\mathcal{F}: M \rightarrow G/K$ of finite uniton number, from a Riemann surface $M,$ compact or non-compact, into inner symmetric spaces of compact or non-compact type. As…

We study the non-linear Dirichlet-to-Neumann map for the Poincar\'e-Einstein filling problem. For even dimensional manifolds the range of this non-local map is described in terms of a rank two "Dirichlet-to Neumann tensor" along the…

Conformal properties of the topological gravitational terms in $D=2$, $D=4$ and $D=6$ are discussed. It is shown that in the last two cases the integrands of these terms, when being settled into the dimension $D-1$ and multiplied by a…

We consider a conformally invariant version of the Calder\'on problem, where the objective is to determine the conformal class of a Riemannian manifold with boundary from the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map for the conformal Laplacian. The main…

We construct a natural conformally invariant one-form of weight $-2k$ on any $2k$-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian manifold which is closely related to the Pfaffian of the Weyl tensor. On oriented manifolds, we also construct natural…

We study conformal invariants that arise from functions in the nullspace of conformally covariant differential operators. The invariants include nodal sets and the topology of nodal domains of eigenfunctions in the kernel of GJMS operators.…

BGG-operators form sequences of invariant differential operators and the first of these is overdetermined. Interesting equations in conformal geometry described by these operators are those for Einstein scales, conformal Killing forms and…

In this paper, we prove the following two results: First, we study a class of conformally invariant operators $P$ and their related conformally invariant curvatures $Q$ on even-dimensional Riemannian manifolds. When the manifold is locally…

We consider several differential operators on compact almost-complex, almost-Hermitian and almost-K\"ahler manifolds. We discuss Hodge Theory for these operators and a possible cohomological interpretation. We compare the associated spaces…

Hypersurfaces embedded in conformal manifolds appear frequently as boundary data in boundary-value problems in cosmology and string theory. Viewed as the non-null conformal infinity of a spacetime, we consider hypersurfaces embedded in a…

This paper is a continuation of [2], where we complete our partial proof of the Deser-Schwimmer conjecture on the structure of ``global conformal invariants''. Our theorem deals with such invariants P(g^n) that locally depend only on the…
