We prove that manifolds admitting a Riemannian metric for which products of harmonic forms are harmonic satisfy strong topological restrictions, some of which are akin to properties of flat manifolds. Others are more subtle, and are related…
In this paper, we investigate the problem of the existence of the bounded harmonic functions on a simply connected Riemannian manifold $\widetilde{M}$ without conjugate points, which can be compactified via the ideal boundary…
Using $\mathbb{Z}_3$ symmetry, we present a topological condition for the existence of the $\mathbb{Z}_2$ harmonic 1-forms over Riemannian manifold. As a corollary, if $L$ is an oriented link on $S^3$ with determinant zero, then there…
The purpose of this paper is to introduce a version of singular homology based on smooth mappings of manifolds with corners. Although variants of such a theory exists in the literature, we felt that certain points were not adequately…
In this paper, as a continuation of [30], we consider the Gromov-Hausdorff convergence and collapsing in the family of compact Riemannian manifolds with boundary satisfying lower bounds on the sectional curvatures of interior manifolds,…
I begin by explaining how Riemannian geometry can be understood in terms of principal fibre bundles and connections thereon. I then introduce and motivate the definition of a spinor structure in terms of familiar geometrical ideas. The…
The main result of this article provides a characterization of reductive homogeneous spaces equipped with some geometric structure (non necessarily pseudo-Riemannian) in terms of the existence of certain connection. The result generalizes…
In this note we begin a systematic study of compact conformal manifolds of SCFTs in four dimensions (our notion of compactness is with respect to the topology induced by the Zamolodchikov metric). Supersymmetry guarantees that such…
We obtain a Bochner type formula and an estimate from below on the spectrum of the sublaplacian of a compact strictly pseudoconvex CR manifold.
In this paper, we proved a compactness result about Riemannian manifolds with an arbitrary pointwisely pinched Ricci curvature tensor.
An explicit lower bound for the mass of an asymptotically flat Riemannian 3-manifold is given in terms of linear growth harmonic functions and scalar curvature. As a consequence, a new proof of the positive mass theorem is achieved in…
We introduce the notion of asymptotically finitely generated contact structures, which states essentially that the Symplectic Homology in a certain degree of any filling of such contact manifolds is uniformly generated by only finitely many…
We investigate the $L^p$-boundedness of the Hodge projection in the setting of manifolds with ends. We examine its relationship to the Riesz transform and the space of bounded harmonic functions. In particular, we explore how the…
We explore a definition of uniformity on noncompact manifolds that does not require a Riemannian metric, but is equivalent to bounded gemetry. These are unfinished research notes (and will likely never be published), but since they were…
We give a simple proof on the Poincar\'e's conjecture which states that every compact smooth $3-$manifold which is homotopically equivalent to $S^3$ is diffeomorphic to $S^3$.
We observe that a term of the WZW-type can be added to the Lagrangian of the Poisson Sigma model in such a way that the algebra of the first class constraints remains closed. This leads to a natural generalization of the concept of Poisson…
We introduce the notion of a manifold admitting a simple compact Cartan 3-form $\om^3$. We study algebraic types of such manifolds specializing on those having skew-symmetric torsion, or those associated with a closed or coclosed 3-form…
Effects of geometric constraints on a steady flow potential are described by an elliptic-hyperbolic generalization of the harmonic map equations. Sufficient conditions are given for global triviality.
We find a principle of harmonic analyticity underlying the quaternionic (quaternion-K\"ahler) geometry and solve the differential constraints which define this geometry. To this end the original $4n$-dimensional quaternionic manifold is…
Complex manifolds with compatible metric have a naturally defined subspace of harmonic differential forms that satisfy Serre, Hodge, and conjugation duality, as well as hard Lefschetz duality. This last property follows from a…
