We consider isometric immersions of complete connected Riemannian manifolds into space forms of nonzero constant curvature. We prove that if such an immersion is compact and has semi-definite second fundamental form, then it is an embedding…

In this paper we extend the Cartan's approach of Riemannian normal coordinates and show that all n-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian metrics are conformal to a flat manifold, when, in normal coordinates, they are well-behaved in the origin and…

We study sequences of conformal deformations of a smooth closed Riemannian manifold of dimension $n$, assuming uniform volume bounds and $L^{n/2}$ bounds on their scalar curvatures. Singularities may appear in the limit. Nevertheless, we…

Let $M$ be a 5 dimensional Riemannian manifold with $Sec_M\in[0,1]$, $\Sigma$ be a locally conformally flat hypersphere in $M$ with mean curvature $H$. We prove that, there exists $\varepsilon_0>0$, such that $\int_\Sigma (1+H^2)^2 \ge…

We establish the following uniformization result for metric spaces $X$ of finite Hausdorff 2-measure. If $X$ is homeomorphic to a smooth 2-manifold $M$ with non-empty boundary, then we show that $X$ admits a quasiconformal almost…

For a k-flat F inside a locally compact CAT(0)-space X, we identify various conditions that ensure that F bounds a (k+1)-dimensional half flat in X. Our conditions are formulated in terms of the ultralimit of X. As applications, we obtain…
