Let $M$ be a hyperkaehler manifold, and $F$ a torsion-free and reflexive coherent sheaf on $M$. Assume that $F$ (outside of its singularities) admits a connection with a curvature which is invariant under the standard SU(2)-action on…

A long-standing conjecture in complex geometry says that a compact Hermitian manifold with constant holomorphic sectional curvature must be K\"ahler when the constant is non-zero and must be Chern flat when the constant is zero. The…

We derive the Boltzmann equation in the context of a gravity theory with non-minimal coupling between matter and curvature. We show that as the energy-momentum tensor is not conserved in these theories, it follows a condition on the…

A quaternionic K\"ahler manifold M is called {\it positive} if it has positive scalar curvature. The main purpose of this paper is to prove several connectedness theorems for quaternionic immersions in a quaternionic K\"ahler manifold, e.g.…
