Let $(M,g_M,\mathcal F)$ be a closed, connected Riemannian manifold with a Riemannian foliation $\mathcal F$ of nonzero constant transversal scalar curvature. When $M$ admits a transversal nonisometric conformal field, we find some…

We generalise the notion of a Killing superalgebra, which arises in the physics literature on supergravity, to general dimension, signature and choice of spinor module and Dirac current. We also allow for Lie algebras as well as…

In this note, we characterise the existence of non-trivial invariant spinors on maximal flag manifolds associated to complex simple Lie algebras. This characterisation is based on the combinatorial properties of their set of positive roots.…

On a K\"ahler spin manifold K\"ahlerian twistor spinors are a natural analogue of twistor spinors on Riemannian spin manifolds. They are defined as sections in the kernel of a first order differential operator adapted to the K\"ahler…

We consider the inverse mean curvature flow in smooth Riemannian manifolds of the form $([R_{0},\infty)\times S^n,\bar{g})$ with metric $\bar{g}=dr^2+{\vartheta}^2(r){\sigma}$ and non-positive radial sectional curvature. We prove, that for…

In this paper, we first investigate the integral curvature condition to extend the mean curvature flow of submanifolds in a Riemannian manifold with codimension $d\geq1$, which generalizes the extension theorem for the mean curvature flow…
