In this paper, we prove a version of the classical Cartan-Hadamard theorem for negatively curved manifolds, of dimension $n\neq 5$, with non-empty totally geodesic boundary. More precisely, if $M_1^n,M_2^n$ are any two such manifolds, we…
We study Riemannian manifolds $(M^n,g)$ with mean-convex boundary whose Ricci curvature is nonnegative in a spectral sense. Our first main result is a sharp spectral extension of a rigidity theorem by Kasue: we prove that under the…
We prove a semisimplicity result for the boundary, in the corresponding Deligne-Mumford compactification, of a totally geodesic subvariety of a moduli space of Riemann surfaces. At the level of Teichm\"uller space, this semisimplicity…
In this paper, we prove a rigidity theorem for Poincar\'e-Einstein manifolds whose conformal infinity is a flat Euclidean space. The proof relies on analyzing the propagation of curvature tensors over the level sets of an adapted boundary…
