Consider $D_{n,m} = U(n,m)/\left(U(n) \times U(m)\right)$, the dual of the the Grassmannian manifold and the principal $U(n)$ bundle over $D_{n,m},$ $U(n)\rightarrow U(n,m)/U(m) \stackrel{\pi} \rightarrow D_{n,m}$. Given a nontrivial $X \in…

For the ``Hopf bundle'' $S^1\to S^{2n,1} \to {\mathbb H}^n$, horizontal lifts of simple closed curves are studied. Let $\gamma$ be a piecewise smooth, simple closed curve on a complete totally geodesic surface $S$ in the base space. Then…

We prove that given a finite set $E$ in a bordered Riemann surface $\mathcal{R}$, there is a continuous map $h\colon \overline{\mathcal{R}}\setminus E\to\mathbb{C}^n$ ($n\geq 2$) such that $h|_{\mathcal{R}\setminus E} \colon…

Consider the nonstandard embedding of SO(3) into SO(5) given by the 5-dimensional irreducible representation of SO(3), henceforth called SO(3)_\ir. In this note, we study the topology and the differential geometry of 5-dimensional…

We explicitly calculate the fundamental group of the space $\mathcal F$ of all immersed closed curves on a surface $F$. It is shown that $\pi_n(\mathcal F)=0$, n>1 for $F\neq S^2, RP^2$. It is also proved that $\pi_2(\mathcal F)=\Z$, and…

Let $g$ be locally homogeneous (LH) Riemannian metric on a differentiable compact manifold $M$, and $K$ be a compact Lie group endowed with an $\mathrm {ad}$-invariant inner product on its Lie algebra $\mathfrak{k}$. A connection $A$ on a…

We study the geometry of a $G$-structure $P$ inside the oriented orthonormal frame bundle ${\rm SO}(M)$ over an oriented Riemannian manifold $M$. We assume that $G$ is connected and closed, so the quotient ${\rm SO}(n)/G$, where $n=\dim M$,…

We show that for two classes of $m$-secant curves $X \subset S$, with $m \geq 2$, where $f : S = \mathbb{P} (\mathcal{O}_Y \oplus \mathcal{O}_Y (E)) \to Y$ and $E$ is a non-special divisor on a smooth curve $Y$, the Tschirnhausen module…

It is still an open question whether a compact embedded hypersurface in the Euclidean space R^{n+1} with constant mean curvature and spherical boundary is necessarily a hyperplanar ball or a spherical cap, even in the simplest case of…

Let $E$ be a smooth bundle with fiber an $n$-dimensional real projective space $\mathbb{R}P^n$. We show that, if every fiber carries a positively curved pointwise strongly $1/4$-pinched Riemannian metric that varies continuously with…

Let $\pi:M\to B$ be a proper holomorphic submersion between complex manifolds and ${\cal E}$ a holomorphic bundle on $M$. We study and describe explicitly the torsion subsheaf $\mathrm{Tors}(R^1\pi_*({\cal E}))$ of the first direct image…

We show Riemannian geometry could be studied by identifying the tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold $\mathcal{M}$ with a subbundle of the trivial bundle $\mathcal{M} \times \mathcal{E}$, obtained by embedding $\mathcal{M}$…
