We establish a twistor correspondence between a cuspidal cubic curve in a complex projective plane, and a co-calibrated homogeneous $G_2$ structure on the seven--dimensional parameter space of such cubics. Imposing the Riemannian reality…

All candidates to the weakly-irreducible not irreducible holonomy algebras of Lorentzian manifolds are known. In the present paper metrics that realize all these candidates as holonomy algebras are given. This completes the classification…

Let $(G,g)$ be a 4-dimensional Riemannian Lie group with a 2-dimensional left-invariant, conformal foliation $\mathcal{F}$ with minimal leaves. Let $J$ be an almost Hermitian structure on $G$ adapted to the foliation $\mathcal{F}$. The…

Suppose G is a Gromov hyperbolic group, and the boundary at infinity of G is quasisymmetrically homeomorphic to an Ahlfors Q-regular metric 2-sphere Z with Ahlfors regular conformal dimension Q. Then G acts discretely, cocompactly, and…

In this survey, we describe invariants that can be used to distinguish connected components of the moduli space of holonomy G_2 metrics on a closed 7-manifold, or to distinguish G_2-manifolds that are homeomorphic but not diffeomorphic. We…

We consider invariant Riemannian metrics on compact homogeneous spaces $G/H$ where an intermediate subgroup $K$ between $G$ and $H$ exists. In this case, the homogeneous space $G/H$ is the total space of a Riemannian submersion. The metrics…

In this paper, we introduce the notion of standard homogeneous $(\alpha_1,\alpha_2)$-metrics, as a natural non-Riemannian deformation for the normal homogeneous Riemannian metrics. We prove that with respect to the given bi-invariant inner…

The gauge bundle of the 4-dim conformal group over an 8-dim base space, called biconformal space, is shown have a consistent interpretation as a scale-invariant phase space. Specifically, we show that a classical Hamiltonian system…

We find two different families of $Sp(2,R)$ symmetric $G_2$ structures in seven dimensions. These are $G_2$ structures with $G_2$ being the split real form of the simple exceptional complex Lie group $G_2$. The first family has…

We construct complete noncompact Riemannian metrics with $G_2$-holonomy on noncompact orbifolds that are $\Bbb R^3$-bundles with the twistor space $\mathcal{Z}$ as a spherical fiber.

We consider the family of harmonic measures on a lamination $\mathcal{L}$ of a compact space $X$ by locally symmetric spaces $L$ of noncompact type, i.e. $L\simeq \Gamma_L\backslash G/K$. We establish a natural bijection between these…

We consider 5-dimensional Lie groups with left-invariant Riemannian metrics. For such groups we give a partial classification of left-invariant conformal foliations with minimal leaves of codimension 2. These foliations produce local…

A homemorphism between domains in $\mathbb R^n$, $n\ge 2$ is quasiconformal, with its intricate analytic and geometric consequences, if the (pointwise) linear dilatation -- a purely metric quantity -- is uniformly bounded. Gehring proved…

We present the updated results of the infrared behavior of the SU(2) 6 and 8 fundamental representation fermions. We use the gradient flow method with the Schr\"odinger functional boundary conditions to measure the running of the coupling…
