We prove the elementary but surprising fact that the Hofer distance between two closed subsets of a symplectic manifold can be expressed in terms of the restrictions of Hamiltonians to one of the subsets; this helps explain certain…

This is partly a survey and partly a research article. Some known results and open problems about Kaehler groups (fundamental groups of compact Kaehler manifolds) are discussed. A new notion of Kaehler homomorphism is introduced. This is a…

Let $M^n$ be an $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold with boundary $\partial M$. Assume that Ricci curvature is bounded from below by $(n-1)k$, for $k\in \RR$, we give a sharp estimate of the upper bound of $\rho(x)=\dis(x, \partial M)$, in…

We propose an approach to the existence problem for locally conformally K\"ahler metrics on compact complex manifolds by introducing and studying a functional that is different according to whether the complex dimension of the manifold is…

We discuss some properties of the distance functions on Riemannian manifolds and we relate their behavior to the geometry of the manifolds. This leads to alternative proofs of some "classical" theorems connecting curvature and topology.

In this article we introduce the notion of Polyhedral Kahler manifolds, even dimensional polyhedral manifolds with unitary holonomy. We concentrate on the 4-dimensional case, prove that such manifolds are smooth complex surfaces, and…

In this paper we prove a symmetry result on submanifolds of codimension one in a n + 1-dimensional space form, related to the geodesic distance function and to the normal curvature of some fixed vector field. As applications we will prove…

Some curvature properties of Kahler manifolds of indefinite metrics are studied. Analogues of a Kulkarni's theorem are proved for such manifolds.

In this paper, we consider the conormal bundle over a submanifold in a Finsler manifold and establish a volume comparison theorem. As an application, we derive a lower estimate for length of closed geodesics in a Finsler manifold. In the…

One of the main purposes of this paper is to prove that on a complete K\"ahler manifold of dimension $m$, if the holomorphic bisectional curvature is bounded from below by -1 and the minimum spectrum $\lambda_1(M) \ge m^2$, then it must…

We prove various inequalities measuring how far from an isometry a local map from a manifold of high curvature to a manifold of low curvature must be. We consider the cases of volume-preserving, conformal and quasi-conformal maps. The…

Let X, Y be the universal covers of two compact Riemannian manifolds (with dimension not equal to 4) with negative sectional curvature. Then every quasiisometry between them lies at a finite distance from a bilipschitz homeomorphism.

We investigate a new property for compact Kahler manifolds. Let X be a Kahler manifold of dimension n and let H^{1,1} denote the (1,1) part of its real second cohomology. On this space, we have an degree n form given by cup product. Let K…

In this paper we prove an area comparison result for certain totally geodesic surfaces in 3-manifolds with a lower bound on the scalar curvature. This result is a variant of a comparison theorem of Heintze-Karcher for minimal hypersurfaces…

In this article, we prove a Liouville property of holomorphic maps from a complete Kahler manifold with nonnegative holomorphic bisectional curvature to a complete simply connected Kahler manifold with a certain assumption on the sectional…

The aim of this paper is to present the first examples of compact, simply connected holomorphically pseudosymmetric Kahler manifolds.

In this paper, we study the deformation limit of compact Kahler manifolds. We show that the limit to be a manifold in the Fujiki class C is equivalent to the finiteness of the upper volume. We also prove the Streets-Tian conjecture for a…

For compact K\"ahlerian manifolds, the holomorphic pseudosymmetry reduces to the local symmetry if additionally the scalar curvature is constant and the structure function is non-negative. Similarly, the holomorphic Ricci-pseudosymmetry…

On H-type sub-Riemannian manifolds we establish sub-Hessian and sub-Laplacian comparison theorems which are uniform for a family of approximating Riemannian metrics converging to the sub-Riemannian one. We also prove a sharp sub-Riemannian…

We establish the Bonnet-Myers theorem, Laplacian comparison theorem, and Bishop-Gromov volume comparison theorem for weighted Finsler manifolds as well as weighted Finsler spacetimes, of weighted Ricci curvature bounded below by using the…
