Motivated by the study of the autoequivalence group of triangulated categories via isometric actions on metric spaces, we consider curvature properties (CAT(0), Gromov hyperbolic) of the space of Bridgeland stability conditions with the…

In this article we prove that antitrees with suitable growth properties are examples of infinite graphs exhibiting strictly positive curvature in various contexts: in the normalized and non-normalized Bakry-\'Emery setting as well in the…

We survey a number of recent generalizations and sharpenings of Nehari's extension of Schwarz' lemma for holomorphic self-maps of the unit disk. In particular, we discuss the case of infinitely many critical points and its relation to the…

In a 2013 paper, Gromov proves that if smooth Riemannian metrics $g_i$ converge to a smooth Riemannian metric $g$ uniformly, and $g_i$ have scalar curvature uniformly bounded below, then $g$ shares the same scalar curvature lower bound. In…

We show that for a strongly convergent sequence of purely loxodromic finitely generated Kleinian groups with incompressible ends, Cannon-Thurston maps, viewed as maps from a fixed base limit set to the Riemann sphere, converge uniformly.…

A simplicial complex is called negatively curved if all its simplices are isometric to simplices in hyperbolic space, and it satisfies Gromov's Link Condition. We prove that, subject to certain conditions, a compact graph of spaces whose…

We obtain topological obstructions to the existence of a complete Riemannian metric with uniformly positive scalar curvature on certain (non-compact) $4$-manifolds. In particular, such a metric on the interior of a compact contractible…

Many situations in quantum theory and other areas of physics lead to quasi-probabilities which seem to be physically useful but can be negative. The interpretation of such objects is not at all clear. In this paper, we show that…

The main result of this paper is a proof that there are examples of spatially compact solutions of the Einstein-dust equations which only exist for an arbitrarily small amount of CMC time. While this fact is plausible, it is not trivial to…

Riemann zero mean curvature examples in the Lorentz-Minkowski space are surfaces with zero mean curvature foliated by circles contained in parallel planes. In contrast to the Euclidean case, this family of surfaces presents new and rich…

We establish the extrinsic Bonnet-Myers Theorem for compact Riemannian manifolds with positive Ricci curvature. And we show the almost rigidity for compact hypersurfaces, which have positive sectional curvature and almost maximal extrinsic…

By using the Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction method without perturbation, we consider existence results for the conformal scalar curvature on S^n (n greater or equal to 3) when the prescribed function (after being projected to R^n) has two close…

Every spacetime that is asymptotically flat near null infinity can be conformally mapped via a spatial inversion onto the geometry around an extremal, non-rotating and non-expanding horizon. We set up a dictionary for this geometric…

Let $M$ be a complete Riemannian metric of sectional curvature within $[-a^2,-1]$ whose fundamental group contains a $k$-step nilpotent subgroup of finite index. We prove that $a\ge k$ answering a question of M. Gromov. Furthermore, we show…

We study the curvature of metric spaces and branched covers of Riemannian manifolds, with applications in topology and algebraic geometry. Here curvature bounds are expressed in terms of the CAT(k) inequality. We prove a general CAT(k)…

We completely characterize the sectional curvature of all of the $13$-dimensional Bazaikin spaces. In particular, we show that all Bazaikin spaces admit a quasi-positively curved Riemannian metric, and that, up to isometry, there is a…

We prove nontangential asymptotic limits of the Bergman kernel on the diagonal, and the Bergman metric and its holomorphic sectional curvature at exponentially flat infinite type boundary points of smooth bounded pseudoconvex domains in…

In the first part of our paper we analyze bisolutions and inverses of (non-autonomous) evolution equations. We are mostly interested in pseudo-unitary evolutions on Krein spaces, which naturally arise in linear Quantum Field Theory. We…

A one-parameter deformation of Einstein?Hilbert gravity with an inverse Riemann curvature term is derived as the classical limit of quantum gravity compatible with an accelerating universe. This result is based on the investigation of…

The first variant of this article contained a fatal error. Therefore, we publish second version our paper. In the present paper, we prove that the curvature operator of the second kind of a Riemannian manifold is strictly positive if its…
