We present a variety of geometrical and combinatorial tools that are used in the study of geometric structures on surfaces: volume, contact, symplectic, complex and almost complex structures. We start with a series of local rigidity results…

On an almost Hermitian manifold, we have two Hermitian scalar curvatures with respect to any canonical Hermitian connection defined by P. Gauduchon. Explicit formulas of these two Hermitian scalar curvatures are obtained in terms of…

Causal fermion systems and Riemannian fermion systems are proposed as a framework for describing non-smooth geometries. In particular, this framework provides a setting for spinors on singular spaces. The underlying topological structures…

A submanifold of a pseudo-Riemannian manifold is said to have parallel mean curvature vector if the mean curvature vector field H is parallel as a section of the normal bundle. Submanifolds with parallel mean curvature vector are important…

Two-dimensional almost-Riemannian structures are generalized Riemannian structures on surfaces for which a local orthonormal frame is given by a Lie bracket generating pair of vector fields that can become collinear. Generically, there are…

In this paper we show that for Riemannian manifolds with boundary the natural restriction map is a quasifibration between spaces of metrics of positive scalar curvature. We apply this result to study homotopy properties of spaces of such…

Let $M$ be a complete Sasakian sub-Riemannian $3$-manifold of constant Webster scalar curvature $\kappa$. For any point $p\in M$ and any number $\lambda\in\mathbb{R}$ with $\lambda^2+\kappa>0$, we show existence of a $C^2$ spherical surface…

Some curvature estimates are derived from geometrical data concerning quasi-conformality properties of some commuting linearly independent vector fields on a compact Riemannian manifold.

This paper reviews recent attempts to describe the two- and three-qubit Hilbert space geometries with the help of Hopf fibrations. In both cases, it is shown that the associated Hopf map is strongly sensitive to states entanglement content.…

In this paper, we first introduce the full express of the Riemannian curvature tensor of a real hypersurface $M$ in complex quadric $Q^{m}$ from the equation of Gauss. Next we derive a formula for the structure Jacobi operator $R_{\xi}$ and…

Let M be a compact Riemannian manifold without boundary and let E be a Riemannian vector bundle over M. If $\Sigma$ denotes the sphere subbundle of E, we look for embeddings of $\Sigma$ into E admitting a prescribed mean curvatures of…

We classify all closed, aspherical Riemannian manifolds M whose universal cover has indiscrete isometry group. One sample application is the theorem that any such M with word-hyperbolic fundamental group must be isometric to a negatively…

We prove that, in case $A(c)$ = the FRT construction of a braided vector space $(V,c)$ admits a weakly Frobenius algebra $\mathfrak B$ (e.g. if the braiding is rigid and its Nichols algebra is finite dimensional), then the Hopf envelope of…

This paper studies the (small) quantum homology and cohomology of fibrations $p: P\to S^2$ whose structural group is the group of Hamiltonian symplectomorphisms of the fiber $(M,\om)$. It gives a proof that the rational cohomology splits…

In this note we discuss the geometry of Riemannian surfaces having a discrete set of singular points. We assume the conformal structure extends through the singularities and the curvature is integrable. Such points are called \emph{simple…

The K\"ahler cone of a compact manifold carries a natural Riemannian metric, given by the intersection product of its cohomology ring. We write down the curvature tensor of this metric by embedding the K\"ahler cone in the space of…
