It is well known that, among closed spherical Seifert three-manifolds, only lens spaces and prism manifolds admit several Seifert fibrations which are not equivalent up to diffeomorphism. Moreover the former admit infinitely many…

By making use of the classification of real simple Lie algebra, we get the maximum of the squared length of restricted roots case by case, thus we get the upper bounds of sectional curvature for irreducible Riemannian symmetric spaces of…

We consider complete Riemannian manifolds which satisfy a weighted Poincar\`e inequality and have the Ricci curvature bounded below in terms of the weight function. When the weight function has a non-zero limit at infinity, the structure of…

Connections between continuous and discrete worlds tend to be elusive. One example is curvature. Even though there exist numerous nonequivalent definitions of graph curvature, none is known to converge in any limit to any traditional…

We establish a sharp upper bound for the bottom spectrum of the Beltrami Laplacian on universal covers of closed Riemannian manifolds with scalar curvature lower bound. Moreover, we prove a scalar curvature rigidity theorem when this bound…

We provide intrinsic conditions on the geometry of horospheres in a closed, negatively curved Riemannian manifold of dimension greater than or equal to 3, which guarantee that the sectional curvature is constant.

We obtain some restrictions on the topology of infinite volume hyperbolic manifolds. In particular, for any n and any closed negatively curved manifold M of dimension greater than 2, only finitely many hyperbolic n-manifolds are total…

We find necessary and sufficient conditions for a complete $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold of finite volume, whose curvature tensor has nullity at least $n-2$, to be a geometric graph manifold. In the process, we show that Nomizu's…
