We present an asymptotically flat and stationary multi-black lens solution with bi-axisymmetry of $U(1)\times U(1)$ as a supersymmetric solution in the five-dimensional minimal ungauged supergravity. We show that the spatial cross section…
We show that an enlargeable Riemannian metric on a (possibly nonspin) manifold cannot have uniformly positive scalar curvature. This extends a well-known result of Gromov and Lawson to the nonspin setting. We also prove that every…
We study the problem of isometrically embedding a two-dimensional Riemannian manifold into Euclidean three-space. It is shown that if Gaussian curvature vanishes to finite order and its zero set consists of two smooth curves tangent at a…
The Positive Mass Conjecture states that any complete asymptotically flat manifold of nonnnegative scalar curvature has nonnegative mass. Moreover, the equality case of the Positive Mass Conjecture states that in the above situation, if the…
We show that the existence of an embedded compact, boundaryless hypersurface S of strictly positive mean curvature in a noncompact, connected, complete Riemannian n-manifold N of nonnegative Ricci curvature implies that the homomorphism…
In a 4-manifold, the composition of a Riemannian Einstein metric with an almost paracomplex structure that is isometric and parallel, defines a neutral metric that is conformally flat and scalar flat. In this paper, we study hypersurfaces…
Let (M,g) be a complete, simply connected Riemannian manifold of dimension 3 without conjugate points. We show that M is a hyperbolic manifold of constant sectional curvature, provided M is asymptotically harmonic of constant h > 0.
This} paper presents relations between least area and normal surfaces, embedded in either a Euclidean or hyperbolic $3$-manifold. A relaxed version of normal surfaces, termed quasi-normal, is introduced, and it is shown that under…
In this article, we investigate the geometry of compact quasi-Einstein manifolds with boundary. We show that a $3$-dimensional simply connected compact quasi-Einstein manifold with boundary and constant scalar curvature is isometric, up to…
In 2014, Gromov asked if nonnegative scalar curvature is preserved under intrinsic flat convergence. Here we construct a sequence of closed oriented Riemannian $n$-manifolds, $n\geq 3$, with positive scalar curvature such that their…
In this note, we investigate conformally flat submanifolds of Euclidean space with positive index of relative nullity. Let $M^n$ be a complete conformally flat manifold and let $f\colon M^n\to \R^m$ be an isometric immersion. We prove the…
We prove that a closed, simply connected, positively curved, cohomogeneity-three manifold whose quotient space has no boundary is rationally elliptic, thus providing a generalization of similar results regarding rational ellipticity of…
In this paper, we show that there are non-properly embedded minimal surfaces with finite topology in a simply connected Riemannian 3-manifold with nonpositive curvature. We show this result by constructing a non-properly embedded minimal…
We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for a $3$-dimensional submanifold of $\mathbb R^3$ endowed with a diagonal metric to be flat. As applications, we characterize the flat manifolds of warped product-type, more precisely, the…
We prove that a Riemannian submersion between smooth, compact, non-negatively curved Riemannian manifolds has to be smooth, resolving a conjecture by Berestovskii--Guijarro. We show that without any curvature assumption, the smoothness of…
We provide an explicit classification of the following four families of surfaces in any homogeneous 3-manifold with 4-dimensional isometry group: isoparametric surfaces, surfaces with constant principal curvatures, homogeneous surfaces, and…
We show that if a Riemannian manifold satisfies (3,3)-bipolar comparisons and has an open flat subset then it is flat. The same holds for a version of MTW where the perpendicularity is dropped. In particular we get that the (3,3)-bipolar…
Let $(M,g)$ be an asymptotically flat Riemannian manifold of dimension $n\geq 3$ with positive mass. We give a short proof based on Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction of the existence of an asymptotic foliation of $(M, g)$ by stable constant mean…
We show that the simplicial volume of a contractible 3-manifold not homeomorphic to $\mathbb{R}^3$ is infinite. As a consequence, the Euclidean space may be characterized as the unique contractible $3$-manifold with vanishing minimal…
Let $(M, g)$ be a complete Riemannian $3$-manifold that is asymptotic to Schwarzschild with positive mass and whose scalar curvature vanishes. We \textsl{unconditionally} characterize the large, embedded stable constant mean curvature…
