In the conformal class of Euclidean space, we give some volume comparison theorems with help of Q-curvature. Meanwhile, for compact four dimensional manifolds with non-negative scalar curvature, we give a volume rigidity theorem with…
A conjecture of Berger states that, for any simply connected Riemannian manifold all of whose geodesics are closed, all prime geodesics have the same length. We firstly show that the energy function on the free loop space of such a manifold…
We prove the convergence of normal form power series for suitably nonsingular analytic submanifolds under a broad class of infinite-dimensional Lie pseudo-group actions. Our theorem is illustrated by a number of examples, and includes, as a…
In this paper, it is shown that some of the results of torus actions on Poincar\'{e} duality spaces, Borel's dimension formula and topological splitting principle to local weights, hold if `torus' is replaced by `pro-torus'.
The aim of this paper is to prove isoperimetric inequalities on submanifolds of the Euclidean space using mass transportation methods. We obtain a sharp ?weighted isoperimetric inequality? and a nonsharp classical inequality similar to the…
We prove a noncompact Serre-Swan theorem characterising modules which are sections of vector bundles not necessarily trivial at infinity. We then identify the endomorphism algebras of the resulting modules. The endomorphism results continue…
We establish a quantitative isoperimetric inequality for weighted Riemannian manifolds with $\mathrm{Ric}_{\infty} \ge 1$. Precisely, we give an upper bound of the volume of the symmetric difference between a Borel set and a sub-level (or…
With any convex function F on a finite-dimensional linear space X such that F goes to infinity at infinity, we associate a Borel measure on the dual space X*. This measure is obtained by pushing forward the measure exp(-F(x))dx under the…
In Euclidean and Hyperbolic space, and the hemisphere in $S^n$, geodesic balls maximize the gap $\lambda_2 - \lambda_1$ of Dirichlet eigenvalues, amoung domains with fixed $\lambda_1$. We prove an upper bound on $\lambda_2 - \lambda_1$ for…
Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a von Neumann algebra equipped with a faithful semifinite normal weight $\phi$ and $\mathcal{N}$ be a von Neumann subalgebra of $\mathcal{M}$ such that the restriction of $\phi$ to $\mathcal{N}$ is semifinite and such…
We prove that if the classical Baum-Connes conjecture in complex K-theory is true (for a given discrete group G), then the conjecture is also true in the real case (for the same group G). The essential ingredients of the proof are the…
We prove a number of results related to the size and propagation of boundary pluripolar sets, the exceptional sets for the Dirichlet problem for the complex Monge--Amp\`ere equation. We extend Stout's result that peak sets on strictly…
Let $ \mathfrak{M}$ be the moduli space of torsion free $ G_2$ structures on a compact 7-manifold $ M$, and let $ \mathfrak{M}_1 \subset \mathfrak{M}$ be the $ G_2$ structures with volume($M$) $=1$. The cohomology map $ \pi^3: \mathfrak{M}…

For a compact K\"{a}hler-Einstein manifold $M$ of dimension $n\ge 2$, we explicitly write the expression $-c_1^n(M)+\frac{2(n+1)}{n}c_2(M)c_1^{n-2}(M)$ in the form of certain integral on the holomorphic sectional curvature and its average…

We prove a log-Sobolev inequality for a certain class of log-concave measures in high dimension. These are the probability measures supported on the unit cube in R^n whose density takes the form exp(-H) where the function H is assumed to be…
We introduce a version of discrete Morse theory specific for manifolds with boundary. The idea is to consider Morse functions for which all boundary cells are critical. We obtain "Relative Morse Inequalities" relating the homology of the…
