In this short note we prove that a Kahler manifold with lower Ricci curvature bound and almost maximal volume is Gromov-Hausdorff close to the projective space with the Fubini-Study metric. This is done by combining the recent results of…

We consider complete (possibly non-compact) three dimensional Riemannian manifolds (M,g) such that: a) (M,g) is non-collapsed, b) the Ricci curvature of (M,g) is bounded from below, c) the geometry of (M,g) at infinity is not too extreme.…

We study metric structures on a smooth manifold (introduced in our recent works and called a weak contact metric structure and a weak K-structure) which generalize the metric contact and K-contact structures, and allow a new look at the…

We study local structure of the moduli space of compact Einstein metrics with respect to the boundary conformal metric and mean curvature. In dimension three, we confirm M. Anderson's conjecture in a strong sense, showing that the map from…

In the paper, we study evolution equations of the scalar and Ricci curvatures under the Hamilton's Ricci flow on a closed manifold and on a complete noncompact manifold. In particular, we study conditions when the Ricci flow is trivial and…

We consider almost $\eta$-Ricci solitons in $(LCS)_n$-manifolds satisfying certain curvature conditions. We provide a lower and an upper bound for the norm of the Ricci curvature in the gradient case, derive a Bochner-type formula for an…

Inspired by the idea of Colding-Minicozzi in [CM1], we define (mean curvature flow) entropy for submanifolds in a general ambient Riemannian manifold. In particular, this entropy is equivalent to area growth of a closed submanifold in a…

In this paper, we announce the following results: Let M be a Kaehler-Einstein manifold with positive scalar curvature. If the initial metric has nonnegative bisectional curvature and positive at least at one point, then the K\"ahler-Ricci…

We consider Riemannian 4-manifolds that Gromov-Hausdorff converge to a lower dimensional limit space, with the Ricci tensor going to zero. Among other things, we show that if the limit space is two dimensional then under some mild…

Firstly we give a condition to split off the K"ahler factor from a nearly pseudo-K"ahler manifold and apply this to get a structure result in dimension 8. Secondly we extend the construction of nearly K"ahler manifolds from twistor spaces…
