Among all metrics on $\mathbb S^d$ with $d>4$ that are conformal to the standard metric and have positive scalar curvature, the total $\sigma_2$-curvature, normalized by the volume, is uniquely (up to M\"obius transformations) minimized by…
We consider a special class of Finsler metrics --- square metrics which are defined by a Riemannian metric and a 1-form on a manifold. We show that an analogue of the Beltrami Theorem in Riemannian geometry is still true for square metrics…
We construct a convex and strongly pseudoconvex Kobayashi positive Finsler metric on a vector bundle $E$ under the assumption that the symmetric power of the dual $S^kE^*$ has a Griffiths negative $L^2$-metric for some $k$. The proof relies…
We study the beta functions for the dimensionless couplings in quadratic curvature gravity, and find that there is a simple argument to restrict the possible form of the beta functions as derived from the counterterms at an arbitrary loop.…
In this article, we get properties for singular (dual) Nakano semi-positivity and obtain singular type vanishing theorem involving $L^2$-subsheaves on weakly pseudoconvex manifolds by $L^2$-estimates and $L^2$-type Dolbeault isomorphisms.…
There are described hierarchies of equations coupling a metric with a trace-free tensor having prescribed symmetries and in the kernel of certain generalized gradients. These specialize, when the tensor vanishes identically, to the usual…
In this paper, we study locally projectively flat Finsler metrics with constant flag curvature ${\bf K}$. We prove those are totally determined by their behaviors at the origin by solving some nonlinear PDEs. The classifications when ${\bf…
A conformal metric ${\rm d}s^{2}$ with finitely many conical singularities of constant Gaussian curvature $K=1$ on a compact Riemann surface is referred to as a spherical conical metric. When the associated monodromy group of ${\rm d}s^{2}$…
We obtain a volume growth and curvature decay result for various classes of complete, noncompact Riemannian metrics in dimension 4; in particular our method applies to anti-self-dual or Kahler metrics with zero scalar curvature, and metrics…
Let $X$ be a Fano manifold of dimension at least $2$ and $D$ be a smooth divisor in a multiple of the anticanonical class, $\frac1\alpha(-K_X)$ with $\alpha>1$. It is well-known that K\"ahler-Einstein metrics on $X$ with conic singularities…
In this paper, we study an important class of Finsler metrics--square metrics. We give two expressions of such metrics in terms of a Riemannian metric and a 1-form. We show that Einstein square metrics can be classified up to the…
On a closed Riemannian surface $(M,\bar g)$ with negative Euler characteristic, we study the problem of finding conformal metrics with prescribed volume $A>0$ and the property that their Gauss curvatures $f_\lambda= f + \lambda$ are given…
The aim of the paper is to extend the notion of $\alpha$-geometry in the classical and in the noncommutative case by introducing a more general class of pull-back metrics and to give concrete formulas for the scalar curvature of these…
If $S$ is an infinite sequence over a finite alphabet $\Sigma$ and $\beta$ is a probability measure on $\Sigma$, then the {\it dimension} of $ S$ with respect to $\beta$, written $\dim^\beta(S)$, is a constructive version of Billingsley…
In his famous 1981 paper, Lempert proved that given a point in a strongly convex domain the complex geodesics (i.e., the extremal disks) for the Kobayashi metric passing through that point provide a very useful fibration of the domain. In…
For the distance function from any closed subset of any complete Finsler manifold, we prove that the singular set is equal to a countable union of delta-convex hypersurfaces up to an exceptional set of codimension two. In addition, in…
Let $\mathcal F$ be a holomorphic foliation on a compact K\'ahler surface with hyperbolic singularities and no foliation cycle. We prove that if the limit set of $\mathcal F$ has zero Lebesgue measure, then its complement is a modification…
In this paper we show the uniqueness of the critical point for \emph{semi-stable} solutions of the problem $$\begin{cases} -\Delta u=f(u)&\text{in }\Omega\\ u>0&\text{in }\Omega\\ u=0&\text{on } \partial\Omega,\end{cases}$$ where…
In this paper, we investigate the holonomy group of $n$-dimensional projective Finsler metrics of constant curvature. We establish that in the spherically symmetric case, the holonomy group is maximal, and for a simply connected manifold it…
The Killing equation for a general Finsler space is set up. It is showed that the Killing equation of $(\alpha,\beta)$ space can be divided into two parts. One is the same with Killing equation of a Riemannian metric, another equation can…
