Consider a compact Riemannian manifold M of dimension n whose boundary \partial M is totally geodesic and is isometric to the standard sphere S^{n-1}. A natural conjecture of Min-Oo asserts that if the scalar curvature of M is at least…
Let $X$ and $Y$ be compact connected complex manifolds of the same dimension with $b_2(X)= b_2(Y)$. We prove that any surjective holomorphic map of degree one from $X$ to $Y$ is a biholomorphism. A version of this was established by the…
Let $(M,g)$ be a complete $(n+1)$-dimensional Riemannian manifold with $2\leq n\leq 6$. Our main theorem generalizes the solution of S.-T. Yau's conjecture on the abundance of minimal surfaces and builds on a result of M. Gromov. Suppose…
For three dimensional complete, non-compact Riemannian manifolds with non-negative Ricci curvature and uniformly positive scalar curvature, we obtain the sharp linear volume growth ratio and the corresponding rigidity.
We classify all closed, aspherical Riemannian manifolds M whose universal cover has indiscrete isometry group. One sample application is the theorem that any such M with word-hyperbolic fundamental group must be isometric to a negatively…
One of the main purposes of this paper is to prove that on a complete K\"ahler manifold of dimension $m$, if the holomorphic bisectional curvature is bounded from below by -1 and the minimum spectrum $\lambda_1(M) \ge m^2$, then it must…
Let $Y$ be a closed Calabi-Yau manifold. Let $\omega$ be the K\"ahler form of a Ricci-flat K\"ahler metric on $\mathbb{C}^m \times Y$. We prove that if $\omega$ is uniformly bounded above and below by constant multiples of…
Let $M$ be a 4-dimensional open manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature. In this paper, we prove that if the universal cover of $M$ has Euclidean volume growth, then the fundamental group $\pi_1(M)$ is finitely generated. This result…
We present reformulation of Mathieu's result on representing cohomology classes of symplectic manifold with symplectically harmonic forms. We apply it to the case of foliated manifolds with transversally symplectic structure and to…
Let $\sigma>1$ and let $M$ be a complete Riemannian manifold. In a recent work [9], Grigor$^{\prime}$yan and Sun proved that a pointwise upper bound of volume growth is sufficient for uniqueness of nonnegative solutions of elliptic…
In this paper, we shall give some affirmative answer to an extremal Kaehler version of the Yau-Tian-Donaldson Conjecture. For a polarized algebraic manifold $(X,L)$, we choose a maximal algebraic torus $T$ in the group of holomorphic…
The deformation of a variety $X$ to the normal cone of a subvariety $Y$ is a classical construction in algebraic geometry. In this paper we study the case when $(X,\omega)$ is a compact K\"ahler manifold and $Y$ is a submanifold. The…
Suppose $G$ is a connected complex Lie group and $H$ is a closed complex subgroup such that $X := G/H$ is Kaehler and the codimension of the top non-vanishing homology group of $X$ with coefficients in $\mathbb Z_2$ is less than or equal to…
We prove a uniform local non-collapsing volume estimate for a large family of singular metrics in the big cohomology classes, which are K\"ahler on an open Euclidean subset of the manifold. The key ingredient is a generalization of a mixed…
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…
In the biharmonic submanifolds theory there is a generalized Chen's conjecture which states that biharmonic submanifolds in a Riemannian manifold with non-positive sectional curvature must be minimal. This conjecture turned out false by a…
We prove that if $Y$ is the Gromov-Hausdorff limit of a sequence of compact manifolds, $M^n_i$, with a uniform lower bound on Ricci curvature and a uniform upper bound on diameter, then $Y$ has a universal cover. We then show that, for $i$…
We study the convergence of volume forms on a degenerating holomorphic family of log-Calabi-Yau varieties to a non-Archimedean measure, extending a result of Boucksom and Jonsson. More precisely, let $(X,B)$ be a holomorphic family of sub…
In this article, we study a class of K\"ahler manifolds defined on tube domains in $\mathbb{C}^n$, and in particular those which have $O(n) \times \mathbb{R}^n$ symmetry. For these, we prove a uniqueness result showing that any such…
We show that L\"uck's conjecture on torsion growth in homology implies that two 3-manifolds have equal volume if the fundamental groups have the same set of finite quotients.
