We determine an explicit expression for the Ricci tensor of a K-manifold, that is of a compact Kaehler manifold M with vanishing first Betti number, on which a semisimple group G of biholomorphic isometries acts with an orbit of codimension…

We provide a step towards classifying Riemannian four-manifolds in which the curvature tensor has zero divergence, or -- equivalently -- the Ricci tensor Ric satisfies the Codazzi equation. Every known compact manifold of this type belongs…

We prove that the sharp Buser's inequality obtained in the framework of $\mathsf{RCD}(1,\infty)$ spaces by the first two authors is rigid, i.e. equality is obtained if and only if the space splits isomorphically a Gaussian. The result is…

We prove that Ahlfors-regular RCD spaces are uniformly rectifiable. The same is shown for Ahlfors regular boundaries of non-collapsed RCD spaces. As an application we deduce a type of quantitative differentiation for Lipschitz functions on…

In this article, we derive an integral formula involving the tensor $D_{ijk}$ for compact Einstein-type manifolds with constant scalar curvature. As an application, we classify three-dimensional compact Einstein-type manifolds satisfying…

Among other results, a compact almost K\"ahler manifold is proved to be K\"ahler if the Ricci tensor is semi-negative and its length coincides with that of the star Ricci tensor or if the Ricci tensor is semi-positive and its first order…

We characterize the convexity of functions and the monotonicity of vector fields on metric measure spaces with Riemannian Ricci curvature bounded from below. Our result offers a new approach to deal with some rigidity theorems such as…

The difference tensor R.C-C.R of a semi-Riemannian manifold (M,g), dim M > 3, formed by its Riemannian-Christoffel curvature tensor R and the Weyl conformal curvature tensor C, under some assumptions, can be expressed as a linear…

Special Ricci-Hessian equations on K\"ahler manifolds $(M,g)$, as defined by Maschler [Ann. Global Anal. Geom. 34 (2008), 367--380] involve functions $\tau$ on $M$ and state that, for some function $\alpha$ of the real variable $\tau$, the…

We construct metrics of positive $2^{\rm nd}$ intermediate Ricci curvature, $\mathrm{Ric}_2>0$, on closed manifolds of dimensions 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14, including $\mathbb{S}^6\times\mathbb{S}^7$, $\mathbb{S}^7\times\mathbb{S}^7$ and all…

We study orientability in spaces with Ricci curvature bounded below. Building on the theory developed by Honda, we establish equivalent characterizations of orientability for Ricci limit and RCD spaces in terms of the orientability of their…

We determine the isomorphism classes of symmetric symplectic manifolds of dimension at least 4 which are connected, simply-connected and have a curvature tensor which has only one non-vanishing irreducible component -- the Ricci tensor.

We obtain a compactness result for various classes of Riemannian metrics in dimension four; in particular our method applies to anti-self-dual metrics, Kahler metrics with constant scalar curvature, and metrics with harmonic curvature. With…

We consider Type I Ricci flows and obtain integral estimates for the curvature tensor valid up to, and including, the singular time. Our estimates partially extend to higher dimensions a curvature estimate recently shown to hold in…

We prove that the group of isometries of a metric measure space that satisfies the Riemannian curvature condition, $RCD^*(K,N),$ is in fact a Lie group. We obtain an optimal upper bound on its dimension and classify the spaces where this…

In anlogy with the work of R. Bryant on the Ricci tensor of a G$_2$-structure, we study the intrinsic torsion of an SU$(2)$-structure on a 5-dimensional manifold deriving an explicit expression for the Ricci and the scalar curvature in…

We show that the equivalence problem for three-dimensional Lorentzian manifolds requires at most the fifth covariant derivative of the curvature tensor. We prove that this bound is sharp by exhibiting a class of 3D Lorentzian manifolds…

On a smooth metric measure spacetime $(M,g,e^{-f} dvol_g)$, we define a weighted Einstein tensor. It is given in terms of the Bakry-\'Emery Ricci tensor as a tensor which is symmetric, divergence-free, concomitant of the metric and the…

The curvature tensor and the scalar curvature are computed in the space of positive definite real matrices endowed by the Kubo-Mori inner product as a Riemannian metric.

We extend the celebrated rigidity of the sharp first spectral gap under $Ric\ge0$ to compact infinitesimally Hilbertian spaces with non-negative (weak, also called synthetic) Ricci curvature and bounded (synthetic) dimension i.e. to…
