In this paper, we survey recent results on index defects of elliptic operators on manifolds with boundary. Index defects are similar to the Hirzebruch signature defects in topology, where the defects appear as the correction terms to the…

We study elliptic theory on manifolds with boundary represented as a covering space. Firstly, we consider boundary value problems, where the boundary conditions are allowed to mix the values of functions in the fibers of the covering. We…

We prove the boundedness theorem for Fano threefolds with log-terminal singularities of any fixed index. This is an improvement of our earlier result, where we required additionally that the variety is Q-factorial, with Picard number 1. The…

We formulate and prove an analog of the Hopf Index Theorem for Riemannian foliations. We compute the basic Euler characteristic of a closed Riemannian manifold as a sum of indices of a non-degenerate basic vector field at critical leaf…

The main goal of the paper is to prove the sandwich theorem for geodesic convex functions in a complete Riemannian manifold. Then by using this theorem we have proved an inequality in a manifold with bounded sectional curvature. Finally, we…

A Poincar\'{e}-Hopf theorem in the spirit of Pugh is proven for compact orbifolds with boundary. The theorem relates the index sum of a smooth vector field in generic contact with the boundary orbifold to the Euler-Satake characteristic of…
