Let $(M, g)$ be a closed Riemannian manifold of dimension $5$. Assume that $(M, g)$ is not conformally equivalent to the round sphere. If the scalar curvature $R_g\geq 0$ and the $Q$-curvature $Q_g\geq 0$ on $M$ with $Q_g(p)>0$ for some…

We show the following result: Let $(M,g_0)$ be a compact manifold of dimension $n\geq 12$ with positive isotropic curvature. Then $M$ is diffeomorphic to a spherical space form, or a quotient manifold of $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}\times \mathbb{R}$…
Among the ergodic actions of a compact quantum group $\mathbb{G}$ on possibly non-commutative spaces, those that are {\it embeddable} are the natural analogues of actions of a compact group on its homogeneous spaces. These can be realized…
