It is shown that on compact $Spin(7)$--manifold with exterior derivative of the Lee form lying in the Lie algebra $spin(7)$ the curvature $R$ of the $Spin(7)$--torsion connection $R\in S^2\Lambda^2$ with vanishing Ricci tensor if and only…

We are concerned in this article with a classical topic in spectral geometry dating back to McKean-Singer, Patodi and Tanno: whether or not the constancy of sectional curvature (resp. holomorphic sectional curvature) of a compact Riemannian…

We study Riemannian manifolds $(M^n,g)$ with mean-convex boundary whose Ricci curvature is nonnegative in a spectral sense. Our first main result is a sharp spectral extension of a rigidity theorem by Kasue: we prove that under the…

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…

We study the behavior under Gromov-Hausdorff convergence of the spectrum of weighted $\barpartial$-Laplacian on compact K\"ahler manifolds. This situation typically occurs for a sequence of Fano manifolds with anticanonical K\"ahler class.…

We consider the class of closed Riemannian $n$-manifolds with Ricci curvature and injectivity radius bounded below by uniform constants, and an upper bound on the diameter. We establish a uniform upper bound for the eigenvalues of the Hodge…

Curvature properties of the characteristic connection on an integrable $G_2$ manifold are investigated. We consider integrable $G_2$ manifold of constant type, i.e. the scalar product of the exterior derivative of the $G_2$ form with its…

We consider uniformly semi-locally 1-connected sequences of closed connected Riemannian 2-manifolds. In particular, we assume that the manifolds are homeomorphic to each other and that their total absolute curvature is uniformly bounded.…

The Colding-Gromov gap theorem asserts that an almost non-negatively Ricci curved manifold with unit diameter and maximal first Betti number is homeomorphic to the flat torus. In this paper, we prove a parametrized version of this theorem,…

If two compact quantum metric spaces are close in the metric sense, then how similar are they, as noncommutative spaces? In the classical realm of Riemannian geometry, informally, if two manifolds are close in the Gromov-Hausdorff distance,…

We introduce the $R$ cut-off covering spectrum and the cut-off covering spectrum of a complete length space or Riemannian manifold. The spectra measure the sizes of localized holes in the space and are defined using covering spaces called…

We obtain a Bonnet-Myers theorem under a spectral condition: a closed Riemannian manifold $(M^n,g)$ for which the lowest eigenvalue of the Ricci tensor $\rho$ is such that the Schr\"odinger operator $(n-2)\Delta + \rho$ is positive has…

In this short note we provide several conjectures on the regularity of measured Gromov-Hausdorff limit spaces of Riemannian manifolds with Ricci curvature bounded below, from the point of view of the synthetic treatment of lower bounds on…
