We prove that various spaces of constrained positive scalar curvature metrics on compact 3-manifolds with boundary, when not empty, are contractible. The constraints we mostly focus on are given in terms of local conditions on the mean…
In this paper, we study closed four-dimensional manifolds. In particular, we show that under various new pinching curvature conditions (for example, the sectional curvature is no more than 5/6 of the smallest Ricci eigenvalue) then the…
In this note, we investigate upper bounds of the Neumann eigenvalue problem for the Laplacian of a bounded domain (with smooth boundary) in a given complete (not compact a priori) Riemannian manifold with Ricci bounded below . For this, we…
We prove the existence of nontrivial unbounded exceptional domains in the Euclidean space $\R^N$, $N\geq4$. These domains arise as perturbations of complements of straight cylinders in $\R^N$, and by definition they support a positive…
We show that a complete Riemannian manifold with boundary is uniquely determined, up to an isometry, by its distance difference representation on the boundary. Unlike previously known results, we do not impose any restrictions on the…
This paper is concerned with "nice" compactifications of manifolds. Siebenmann's iconic dissertation characterized open manifolds M^m (m>5) compactifiable by addition of a manifold boundary. His theorem extends easily to cases where M^m is…
Robin (or mixed) boundary conditions in quantum mechanics have received considerable attention in the last two decades, in particular, for applications to nanoscale systems. However, their utility has remained obscure to the larger physics…
For a complete noncompact connected Riemannian manifold with bounded geometry, we prove the existence of isoperimetric regions in a larger space obtained by adding finitely many limit manifolds at infinity. As one of many possible…
In this paper, we study the existence of solutions to a type of super-Liouville equation on the compact Riemannian surface $M$ with boundary and with its Euler characteristic $\chi(M)<0$. The boundary condition couples a Neumann condition…
We consider the Dirichlet boundary value problem for graphical maximal submanifolds inside Lorentzian type ambient spaces, and obtain general existence and uniqueness results which apply to any codimension.
After giving a general introduction to the main known results on the anisotropic Calder{\'o}n problem on n-dimensional compact Riemannian manifolds with boundary, we give a motivated review of some recent non-uniqueness results obtained in…
Substatic Riemannian manifolds with minimal boundary arise naturally in General Relativity as spatial slices of static spacetimes satisfying the Null Energy Condition. Moreover, they constitute a vast generalization of nonnegative Ricci…
Semi-Riemannian manifolds that satisfy (homogeneous) linear differential conditions of arbitrary order on the curvature are analyzed. They include, in particular, the spaces with (higher-order) recurrent curvature, (higher-order) symmetric…
In 2015, Mantoulidis and Schoen constructed $3$-dimensional asymptotically Euclidean manifolds with non-negative scalar curvature whose ADM mass can be made arbitrarily close to the optimal value of the Riemannian Penrose Inequality, while…
Given the Laplacian on a planar, convex domain with piecewise linear boundary subject to mixed Dirichlet-Neumann boundary conditions, we provide a sufficient condition for its lowest eigenvalue to dominate the lowest eigenvalue of the…
We consider elliptic equations in planar domains with mixed boundary conditions of Dirichlet-Neumann type. Sharp asymptotic expansions of the solutions and unique continuation properties from the Dirichlet-Neumann junction are proved.
The goal of this article is to investigate nontrivial $m$-quasi-Einstein manifolds globally conformal to an $n$-dimensional Euclidean space. By considering such manifolds, whose conformal factors and potential functions are invariant under…
In this paper, we shall give a new upper diameter estimate for complete Riemannian manifolds in the case that the Bakry-\'Emery Ricci curvature has a positive lower bound and the norm of the potential function has an upper bound. Our…
We prove generalized lower Ricci bounds for Euclidean and spherical cones over complete Riemannian manifolds. These cones are regarded as complete metric measure spaces. In general, they will be neither manifolds nor Alexandrov spaces. We…
