We construct Einstein metrics of non-positive scalar curvature on certain solid torus bundles over a Fano Kahler-Einstein manifold. We show, among other things, that the negative Einstein metrics are conformally compact, and the Ricci-flat…

Consider the nonstandard embedding of SO(3) into SO(5) given by the 5-dimensional irreducible representation of SO(3), henceforth called SO(3)_\ir. In this note, we study the topology and the differential geometry of 5-dimensional…
We provide a classification of compact Euclidean submanifolds $M^n\subset{\mathbb{R}}^{n+2}$ with nonnegative sectional curvature, for $n\ge 3$. The classification is in terms of the induced metric (including the diffeomorphism…
We study the spectrum of phase transitions with prescribed mean curvature in Riemannian manifolds. These phase transitions are solutions to an inhomogeneous semilinear elliptic PDE that give rise to diffuse objects (varifolds) that limit to…
In this paper, we consider a Riemannian foliation whose normal bundle carries a parallel or harmonic basic form. We estimate the norm of the O'Neill tensor in terms of the curvature data of the whole manifold. Some examples are then given.
A well-known result asserts that any isometric immersion with flat normal bundle of a Riemannian manifold with constant sectional curvature into a space form is (at least locally) holonomic. In this note, we show that this conclusion…
This paper establishes the conditions under which minimal and stable minimal hypersurfaces are characterized as hyperplanes in Euclidean spaces and as totally geodesic submanifolds in Riemannian manifolds.
We construct Riemannian manifolds with singular continuous spectrum embedded in the absolutely continuous spectrum of the Laplacian. Our manifolds are asymptotically hyperbolic with sharp curvature bounds.
We explore a definition of uniformity on noncompact manifolds that does not require a Riemannian metric, but is equivalent to bounded gemetry. These are unfinished research notes (and will likely never be published), but since they were…
Given a complete Riemannian metric of nonnegative scalar curvature on $\Sigma \times (-\infty, 0 ] $, where $\Sigma$ denotes a $2$-sphere, we exhibit conditions that imply the existence of a closed minimal surface homologous to the…
On any complex smooth projective curve with positive genus, we construct Hilbert bundles that admit Hermitian--Einstein metrics. Our main constructive step is by investigating the arithmetic property of the upper half plane in Bridgeland's…
Given a finite dimensional manifold $N$, the group $\operatorname{Diff}_{\mathcal S}(N)$ of diffeomorphism of $N$ which fall suitably rapidly to the identity, acts on the manifold $B(M,N)$ of submanifolds on $N$ of diffeomorphism type $M$…
We introduce the convex bundle method to solve convex, non-smooth optimization problems on Riemannian manifolds of bounded sectional curvature. Each step of our method is based on a model that involves the convex hull of previously…
Our goal is to identify curvature conditions that distinguish Euclidean space in the case of open, contractible manifolds and the disk in the case of compact, contractible manifolds with boundary. First, we show that an open manifold that…
We show that for an isometric immersion of a complete Riemannian manifold into a Riemannian manifold with non-positive curvature, the norm of the mean curvature vector field is square integrable, then it is minimal. This is a partial…

We classify, up to homeomorphisms, the closed simply-connected 4-manifolds that admit a Riemannian metric for which averages of pairs of sectional curvatures of orthogonal planes are positive.
For collapsing sequences of Riemannian manifolds which satisfy a uniform lower Ricci curvature bound it is shown that there is a sequence of scales such that for a set of good base points of large measure the pointed rescaled manifolds…
