We construct a family of non-parametric (infinite-dimensional) manifolds of finite measures on $R^d$. The manifolds are modelled on a variety of weighted Sobolev spaces, including Hilbert-Sobolev spaces and mixed-norm spaces. Each supports…

We provide Fredholm conditions for compatible differential operators on certain Lie manifolds (that is, on certain possibly non-compact manifolds with nice ends). We discuss in more detail the case of manifolds with cylindrical, hyperbolic,…
We consider the Brenier-Schr{\"o}dinger problem on compact manifolds with boundary. In the spirit of a work by Arnaudon, Cruzeiro, L{\'e}onard and Zambrini, we study the kinetic property of regular solutions and obtain a link to the…
We consider complete non-compact manifolds with either a sub-quadratic growth of the norm of the Riemann curvature, or a sub-quadratic growth of both the norm of the Ricci curvature and the squared inverse of the injectivity radius. We show…

For a Riemannian manifold $M$, possibly with boundary, we consider the Riemannian product $M\times\mathbb{R}^k$ with a smooth positive function that weights the Riemannian measures. In this work we characterize parabolic hypersurfaces with…
We investigate the density of compactly supported smooth functions in the Sobolev space $W^{k,p}$ on complete Riemannian manifolds. In the first part of the paper, we extend to the full range $p\in [1,2]$ the most general results known in…
We revisit the questions of density of smooth functions, and differential forms, in Sobolev spaces on Riemannian manifolds. We carefully show equivalence of weak covariant derivatives to weak partial derivatives.
We study a positivity preservation property for Schr\"odinger operators with singular potential on geodesically complete Riemannian manifolds with non-negative Ricci curvature. We apply this property to the question of self-adjointness of…

We prove an upper and a lower bound on the rank of the spectral projections of the Schr\"odinger operator $-\Delta + V$ in terms of the volume of the sublevel sets of an effective potential $\frac{1}{u}$. Here, $u$ is the `landscape…
We prove a splitting theorem for Riemannian n-manifolds with scalar curvature bounded below by a negative constant and containing certain area-minimising hypersurfaces (Theorem 3). Thus we generalise [25,Theorem 3] by Nunes. This splitting…
