In a round ball $B\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ endowed with an $O(n+1)$-invariant metric we consider a radial function that weights volume and area. We prove that a compact two-sided hypersurface in $B$ which is stable capillary in weighted…
We obtain the largest families constructed to date of $\tfrac{1}{8}$-BPS solutions of type IIB supergravity. They have the same charges and mass as supersymmetric D1-D5-P black holes, but they cap off smoothly with no horizon. Their…
In this note we show that on any compact subdomain of a K\"ahler manifold that admits sufficiently many global holomorphic functions, the products of harmonic functions form a complete set. This gives a positive answer to the linearized…
We prove the following result: Let $(M,g_0)$ be a complete noncompact manifold of dimension $n\geq 12$ with isotropic curvature bounded below by a positive constant, with scalar curvature bounded above, and with injectivity radius bounded…
We study generic volume-preserving diffeomorphisms on compact manifolds. We show that the following property holds generically in the $C^1$ topology: Either there is at least one zero Lyapunov exponent at almost every point, or the set of…
In this paper, we show that there exists a nonconstant CR holomorphic function of polynomial growth in a complete noncompact Sasakian manifold of nonnegative pseudohermitian bisectional curvature with the CR maximal volume growth property.…
We prove that the local (pseudo)group of biholomorphisms stabilizing a minimal, finitely nondegenerate real algebraic submanifold in C^n is a real algebraic local Lie group (the works of S.M. Baouendi, P. Ebenfelt, L.-P. Rothschild and D.…
Our paper is an attempt to to verify the Chen's conjecture on biharmonic submanifolds and to classify biconservative submanifolds. In doing so we provide an affirmative answer to Chen's conjecture on biharmonic submanifolds. We prove that…
The conformal-bienergy functional $E_2^c$ is a modified version of the classical bienergy functional $E_2$ and it is conformally invariant in the case of a four-dimensional domain. The critical points of $E_2^c$ are called…
We prove that for any complex manifold X, the set of all holomorphic maps from the unit disc to X whose images are everywhere dense in X forms a dense subset in the space of all holomorphic maps from the disc to X. We show by an example…
We formulate a conjecture that arithmetic locally symmetric manifolds have simple homotopy type, and prove it for the non-compact case. More precisely, we show that, for any symmetric space S of non-compact type without Euclidean de Rham…
We show that every open book decomposition of a contact 3-manifold can be represented (up to isotopy) by a smooth R-invariant family of pseudoholomorphic curves on its symplectization with respect to a suitable stable Hamiltonian structure.…
We prove that every reduced Stein space admits a holomorphic function without critical points. Furthermore, any closed discrete subset of such a space is the critical locus of a holomorphic function. We also show that for every complex…
The main result of this article is: THEOREM. Every homogeneous locally conical connected separable metric space that is not a $1$-manifold is strongly $n$-homogeneous for each $n \geq 2$ and countable dense homogeneous. Furthermore,…
This is a revised version (minor changes and a deeper insight in the positive curvature case). We prove some Caccioppoli's inequalities for the traceless part of the second fundamental form of a complete, noncompact, finite index, constant…
Let $\mathbf D=\bar{\mathbb D}$ be the closed unit disk in $\mathbb C$ and $\mathbf B_n=\bar{\mathbb B_n}$ the closed unit ball in $\mathbb C^n$. For a compact subset $K$ in $\mathbb C^n$ with nonempty interior, let $A(K)$ be the uniform…
A classical theorem of Alexandroff states that every $n$-dimensional compactum $X$ contains an $n$-dimensional Cantor manifold. This theorem has a number of generalizations obtained by various authors. We consider extension-dimensional and…
A diffeomorphism $f$ has a $C^1$-robust homoclinic tangency if there is a $C^1$-neighbourhood $\cU$ of $f$ such that every diffeomorphism in $g\in \cU$ has a hyperbolic set $\La_g$, depending continuously on $g$, such that the stable and…
A basic problem in the classification theory of compact complex manifolds is to give simple characterizations of complex tori. It is well known that a compact K\"ahler manifold $X$ homotopically equivalent to a a complex torus is…
Let $M$ be a $10$-dimensional closed oriented smooth manifold. Set $$\mathcal{D}_{M} := \{ x \in H^{2}(M; \Z/2) \mid x^{2} + w_{2}(M) x \in \rho_{2} ( TH^{4}(M;\Z) ) \}.$$ Suppose that $H_{1}(M;\Z)=0$ and $\mathcal{D}_{M} \subset \rho_{2}(…
