Let $(M^n, g)$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold with nonpositive bisectional curvature. We show that a finite cover is biholomorphic and isometric to a flat torus bundle over a compact K\"ahler manifold $N^k$ with $c_1 < 0$. This confirms a…

Let $(M,\bar{g}, e^{-f}d\mu)$ be a complete metric measure space with Bakry-\'Emery Ricci curvature bounded below by a positive constant. We prove that, in $M$, there is no complete two-sided $L_f$-stable immersed $f$-minimal hypersurface…

Positive $k^{\rm th}$-intermediate Ricci curvature on a Riemannian $n$-manifold, to be denoted by $\mathrm{Ric}_k > 0$, is a condition that interpolates between positive sectional and positive Ricci curvature (when $k =1$ and $k=n-1$…
