Let $g$ be a Riemannian metric for $\mathbf{R}^d$ ($d\geq 3$) which differs from the Euclidean metric only in a smooth and strictly convex bounded domain $M$. The lens rigidity problem is concerned with recovering the metric $g$ inside $M$…

The goal of this paper is to investigate the rigidity of 4-dimensional manifolds involving some pinching curvature conditions. To this end, we make use of the approach of biorthogonal curvature which is weaker than the sectional curvature.…

We investigate rigidity and stability properties of critical points of quadratic curvature functionals on the space of Riemannian metrics. We show it is possible to "gauge" the Euler-Lagrange equations, in a self-adjoint fashion, to become…

Given a compact Riemannian manifold $M$, we consider a warped product $\bar M = I \times_h M$ where $I$ is an open interval in $\Rr$. We suppose that the mean curvature of the fibers do not change sign. Given a positive differentiable…
