We consider the evolution by mean curvature flow of Lagrangian submanifolds of the complex projective space CP^n. We prove that, if the initial value satisfies a suitable pinching condition, then the flow exists for all times and the…
A 4-dimensional Riemannian manifold M, equipped with an additional tensor structure S, whose fourth power is minus identity, is considered. The structure S has a skew-circulant matrix with respect to some basis of the tangent space at a…
We prove several results concerning the existence of surfaces of section for the geodesic flows of closed orientable Riemannian surfaces. The surfaces of section $\Sigma$ that we construct are either Birkhoff sections, meaning that they…
A Killing $p$-form on a Riemannian manifold is a $p$-form whose covariant derivative is totally anti-symmetric. In this paper we give the complete (local) description of 4-dimensional Riemannian manifolds (M,g) carrying non-parallel Killing…

We show existence of solutions to the Poisson equation on Riemannian manifolds with positive essential spectrum, assuming a sharp pointwise decay on the source function. In particular we can allow the Ricci curvature to be unbounded from…

A three-dimensional Riemannian manifold has locally 6, 4, 3, 2, 1 or none independent Killing vectors. We present an explicit algorithm for computing dimension of the infinitesimal isometry algebra. It branches according to the values of…
We find that (massive) IIA backgrounds that admit a $G_2\ltimes \mathbb{R}^8$ invariant Killing spinor must exhibit a null Killing vector field which leaves the Killing spinor invariant and that the rotation of the Killing vector field…
We construct maximal hypersurfaces with a Neumann boundary condition in Minkowski space via mean curvature flow. In doing this we give general conditions for long time existence of the flow with boundary conditions with assumptions on the…
This paper is a review of recent and classical results on integrable geodesic flows on Riemannian manifolds and topological obstructions to integrability. We also discuss some open problems.
We determine the space of commuting symmetries of the Laplace operator on pseudo-Riemannian manifolds of constant curvature, and derive its algebra structure. Our construction is based on the Riemannian tractor calculus, allowing to…
We illustrate the flow or wave character of the metrics and curvatures of evolving manifolds, introducing the Riemann flow and the Riemann wave via the bialternate product Riemannian metric. This kind of evolutions are new and very natural…
We investigate transverse Ricci solitons, the self-similar solutions of the transverse Ricci flow, on a compact foliated manifold. In particular, we show the relations between a taut Riemannian foliation and a transverse Ricci soliton.…
We study a conformal flow for compact Riemannian manifolds of dimension greater than two with boundary. Convergence to a scalar-flat metric with constant mean curvature on the boundary is established in dimensions up to seven, and in any…
The main aim of this article is to give a necessary and sufficient condition for a real Bott manifold to admit a spin structure and further give a combinatorial characterization for the spin structure in terms of the associated acyclic…
Motivated by the study of Killing forms on compact Riemannian manifolds of negative sectional curvature, we introduce the notion of generalized vector cross products on $\mathbb{R}^n$ and give their classification. Using previous results…

We present a new curvature condition which is preserved by the Ricci flow in higher dimensions. For initial metrics satisfying this condition, we establish a higher dimensional version of Hamilton's neck-like curvature pinching estimate.…
