This article proves that if M is a smooth manifold of dimension at least four, then for generic choice of metric on M, all prime parametrized minimal surfaces in M are free of branch points and lie on nondegenerate critical submanifolds for…
Using a geometric approach involving Riemann surface orbifolds, we provide lower bounds for the genus of an irreducible algebraic curve of the form $E_{A,B}:\, A(x)-B(y)=0$, where $A, B\in\mathbb C(z)$. We also investigate "series" of…
We demonstrate the ``peeling property'' of the Weyl tensor in higher dimensions in the case of even dimensions (and with some additional assumptions), thereby providing a first step towards understanding of the general peeling behaviour of…
Let $M$ be a compact connected surface with boundary. We prove that the signal condition given by the Gauss-Bonnet theorem is necessary and sufficient for a given smooth function $f$ on $\partial M$ (resp. on $M$) to be geodesic curvature…
It is shown that on every closed oriented Riemannian 4-manifold $(M,g)$ with positive scalar curvature, $$\int_M|W^+_g|^2d\mu_{g}\geq 2\pi^2(2\chi(M)+3\tau(M))-\frac{8\pi^2}{|\pi_1(M)|},$$ where $W^+_g$, $\chi(M)$ and $\tau(M)$ respectively…
We prove the generalized Obata theorem on foliations. Let M be a complete Riemannian manifold with a foliation F of codimension $q>1$ and a bundle-like metric. Then $(M, F)$ is transversally isometric to the q-sphere of radius 1/c in…
We prove a universal lower bound for the $L^{n/2}$-norm of the Weyl tensor in terms of the Betti numbers for compact $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds that are conformally immersed as hypersurfaces in the Euclidean space. As a…
This paper shows that the basic properties of Sobolev, Besov, and Bessel potential spaces are valid on Riemannian manifolds with boundary, which either have bounded geometry or posses singularities. In the latter case the appropriate…
This survey is based on my lectures given in last a few years. As a reference, constructions of moduli spaces of parabolic sheaves and generalized parabolic sheaves are provided. By a refinement of the proof of vanishing theorem, we show,…
Let $(M,g)$ be a compact connected two-dimensional Riemannian manifold without boundary. In this note, we answer a question posed by Steinerberger: can one remove the $\sqrt{\log n}$ factor in the two-dimensional Green--Wasserstein…
The individual terms of the series representing the Riemann zeta function are examined geometrically from their accumulated plot in the complex plane. Symmetry is identified and determined mathematically for comparison with more traditional…
The standard Bonnet-Myers theorem says that if the Ricci scalar of a Riemannian manifold is bounded below by a positive number, then the manifold is compact. Moreover, a bound of its diameter is pointed out. The theorem was extended to…
The main aim of this paper is twofold. First we generalize, in a novel way, most of the known non-vanishing results for the derivatives of the Riemann zeta function by establishing the existence of an infinite sequence of regions in the…
We prove that among 1 and the odd zeta values $\zeta(3)$, $\zeta(5)$, \ldots, $\zeta(s)$, at least $ 0.21 \sqrt{s}/\sqrt{\log s}$ are linearly independent over the rationals, for any sufficiently large odd integer $s$. This is the first…
In this paper we prove that every Riemannian metric on a locally conformally flat manifold with umbilic boundary can be conformally deformed to a scalar flat metric having constant mean curvature. This result can be seen as a generalization…
In this paper we extend the concept of a conjugate point in a Riemannian manifold to complete length spaces (also known as geodesic spaces). In particular, we introduce symmetric conjugate points and ultimate conjugate points. We then…
The paper develops the result of second Thomae theorem in hyperelliptic case. The main formula, called general Thomae formula, provides expressions for values at zero of the lowest non-vanishing derivatives of theta functions with singular…
We prove equidistribution at shrinking scales for the monochromatic ensemble on a compact Riemannian manifold of any dimension. This ensemble on an arbitrary manifold takes a slowly growing spectral window in order to synthesize a random…
In this paper we prove weak L^{1,p} (and thus C^{\alpha}) compactness for the class of uniformly mean-convex Riemannian n-manifolds with boundary satisfying bounds on curvature quantities, diameter, and (n-1)-volume of the boundary. We…
We study the spectral properties of Schr\"odinger operators on a compact connected Riemannian manifold $M$ without boundary in case that the underlying Hamiltonian system possesses certain symmetries. More precisely, if $M$ carries an…
