We construct isospectral pairs of Riemannian metrics on S^5 and on B^6, thus lowering by three the dimension of spheres and balls on which such metrics have been constructed previously (S^{n\ge 8} and B^{n\ge 9}). We also construct…

In this paper, we investigate the prescribed scalar curvature problem on a non-compact Riemannian manifold $(M, \langle \, , \, \rangle)$, namely the existence of a conformal deformation of the metric $\langle \, , \, \rangle$ realizing a…

Singular and sectional hyperbolic sets are the objects of the extension of the classical Smale Hyperbolic Theory to flows having invariant sets with singularities accumulated by regular orbits within the set. It is by now well-known that…

Canonical metrics and conformal invariants are presented for closed oriented even-dimensional manifolds with non-degenerate conformal structures and in particular for compact Riemann surfaces.

In this paper we give a general family of conformal invariants associated to bordered Riemann surfaces endowed with boundary parametrizations, or equivalently compact surfaces endowed with conformal maps. Each invariant is specified by a…

We study the existence of points on a compact oriented surface at which a symmetric bilinear two-tensor field is conformal to a Riemannian metric. We give applications to the existence of conformal points of surface diffeomorphisms and…

We investigate the Plateau and isoperimetric problems associated to Fefferman's measure for strongly pseudoconvex real hypersurfaces in $\mathbb C^n$ (focusing on the case $n=2$), showing in particular that the isoperimetric problem shares…

The main objective of this paper is to show that balls under invariant metrics on hyperbolic planar domains are finitely-connected. As applications, we give new and transparent proofs of classical results on conformal mappings of planar…

The modulus metric (also called the capacity metric) on a domain $D\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ can be defined as $\mu_D(x,y)=\inf\{{\mbox{cap}}\,(D,\gamma)\}$, where ${\mbox{cap}}\,(D,\gamma)$ stands for the capacity of the condenser $(D,\gamma)$…

We investigate in this paper the existence of a metric which maximizes the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian on Riemannian surfaces. We first prove that, in a given conformal class, there always exists such a maximizing metric which is…

We obtain uncountably many periodic solutions to the singular Yamabe problem on a round sphere, that blow up along a great circle. These are (complete) constant scalar curvature metrics on the complement of $S^1$ inside $S^m$, $m\geq 5$,…

We prove that in a Riemannian manifold $M$, each function whose Hessian is proportional the metric tensor yields a weighted monotonicity theorem. Such function appears in the Euclidean space, the round sphere $S^n$ and the hyperbolic space…

In this paper, firstly, inspired by Nat\'{a}rio's recent work \cite{Na}, we use the isoperimetric inequality to derive some Alexandrov-Fenchel type inequalities for closed convex hypersurfaces in the hyperbolic space $\H^{n+1}$ and in the…

We determine the curvature equations of natural metrics on tangent bundles and radius r tangent sphere bundles S_rM of a Riemannian manifold M. A family of positive scalar curvature metrics on S_rM is found, for any M with bounded sectional…

An intrinsic definition in terms of conformal capacity is proposed for the conformal type of a Carnot--Carath\'eodory space (parabolic or hyperbolic). Geometric criteria of conformal type are presented. They are closely related to the…

Is a sequence of Riemannian manifolds with positive scalar curvature, satisfying some conditions to keep the sequence reasonable, compact? What topology should one use for the convergence and what is the regularity of the limit space? In…

A conformal metric $g$ with constant curvature one and finite conical singularities on a compact Riemann surface $\Sigma$ can be thought of as the pullback of the standard metric on the 2-sphere by a multi-valued locally univalent…
