Let $M$ and $N$ be connected manifolds without boundary with $\dim(M) < \dim(N)$, and let $M$ compact. Then shape space in this work is either the manifold of submanifolds of $N$ that are diffeomorphic to $M$, or the orbifold of…

In this note, we prove that for a complete noncompact three dimensional Riemannian manifold with bounded sectional curvature, if it has uniformly positive scalar curvature, then there is a uniform lower bound on the injectivity radius.

We show that if a compact, connected, and oriented $n$-manifold $M$ without boundary admits a non-constant non-injective uniformly quasiregular self-map, then the dimension of the real singular cohomology ring $H^*(M; \mathbb{R})$ of $M$ is…

In this note, we prove global weighted Sobolev inequalities on non-compact CD(0,N) spaces satisfying a suitable growth condition, extending to possibly non-smooth and non-Riemannian structures a previous result by V. Minerbe stated for…

We present several rigidity results for Riemannian manifolds $(M^n,g)$ with scalar curvature $S \ge -n(n-1)$ (or $S\ge 0$), and having compact boundary $N$ satisfying a related mean curvature inequality. The proofs make use of results on…

Let $M$ be a compact Riemannian manifold, $\pi:\widetilde{M}\rightarrow M$ be the universal covering and $\omega$ be a smooth $2$-form on $M$ with $\pi^*\omega$ cohomologous to zero. Suppose the fundamental group $\pi_1(M)$ satisfies…

We revisit the sharp Sobolev inequalities involving boundary terms on Riemannian manifolds with boundaries proved by \emph{[Y.Y. Li and M. Zhu, Geom. Funct. Anal. \textbf{8} (1998), 59--87.]} and explore the role of the mean curvature.

A Riemannian metric bundle G(M) is a fiber bundle over a smooth manifold M, whose fibers are the spaces of symmetric, positive-definite bilinear forms on the tangent spaces of M, which represent the Rieman?nian metrics. In this work, we aim…

We consider complete non-compact manifolds with either a sub-quadratic growth of the norm of the Riemann curvature, or a sub-quadratic growth of both the norm of the Ricci curvature and the squared inverse of the injectivity radius. We show…

Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. This paper is concerned with the set of scalar-flat metrics which are in the conformal class of g and have the boundary as a constant mean curvature hypersurface. We prove that this…
