For a noncompact 3-manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature, we prove that either it is diffeomorphic to $\mathbb{R}^3$ or the universal cover splits. As a corollary, it confirms a conjecture of Milnor in dimension 3.

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 $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}\times \mathbb{R}$…

In this paper, we first study isometric immersions $f: M^n\rightarrow M^{n+k}(c), n\geq 3,$ into space forms with flat normal bundle and constant scalar curvature $R.$ Under a suitable multiplicity condition on the second fundamental form…

In this paper we investigate $m$-dimensional complete minimal submanifolds in Euclidean spheres with index of relative nullity at least $m-2$ at any point. These are austere submanifolds in the sense of Harvey and Lawson \cite{harvey} and…

We prove that if a complete Riemannian $n$-manifold with non-trivial codimension 1 homology with $\mathbb{Z}_2$-coefficients or $\mathbb{Z}$-coefficients has positive macroscopic scalar curvature large enough, then it contains a…

We consider a complete nonnegative biminimal submanifold M (that is, a complete biminimal submanifold with lambda>=0) in a Euclidean space E^N. Assume that the immersion is proper, that is, the preimage of every compact set in E^N is also…

In analogy with classical submanifold theory, we introduce morphisms of real metric calculi together with noncommutative embeddings. We show that basic concepts, such as the second fundamental form and the Weingarten map, translate into the…

This paper is about non-holomorphic isometric immersions of Kaehler manifolds into Euclidean space $f\colon M^{2n}\to\R^{2n+p}$, $p\leq n-1$, with low codimension $p\leq 11$. In particular, it addresses a conjecture proposed by J. Yan and…
