We derive general structure and rigidity theorems for submetries $f: M \to X$, where $M$ is a Riemannian manifold with sectional curvature $\sec M \ge 1$. When applied to a non-trivial Riemannian submersion, it follows that $diam X \leq…

The Teichm\"{u}ller curve is the fiber space over Teichm\"{u}ller space of closed Riemann surfaces, where the fiber over a point in Teichm\"{u}ller space is the underlying surface. We derive formulas for sectional curvatures on the…

The K\"ahler cone of a compact manifold carries a natural Riemannian metric, given by the intersection product of its cohomology ring. We write down the curvature tensor of this metric by embedding the K\"ahler cone in the space of…

We use a new method to give conditions for the existence of a local isometric immersion of a Riemannian $n$-manifold $M$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n+k}$, for a given $n$ and $k$. These equate to the (local) existence of a $k$-tuple of scalar fields…

This survey paper is devoted to Riemannian manifolds with special holonomy. To any Riemannian manifold of dimension n is associated a closed subgroup of SO(n), the holonomy group; this is one of the most basic invariants of the metric. A…

We introduce a novel concept of coarse extrinsic curvature for Riemannian submanifolds, inspired by Ollivier's notion of coarse Ricci curvature. This curvature is derived from the Wasserstein 1-distance between probability measures…

In this paper, we formulate a procedure to obtain a generalization of Milnor frames for left-invariant pseudo-Riemannian metrics on a given Lie group. This procedure is an analogue of the recent studies on left-invariant Riemannian metrics,…

The well known formulas express the curvature and the torsion of a curve in $R^3$ in terms of euclidean invariants of its derivatives. We obtain expressions of this kind for all curvatures of curves in $R^n$. It follows that a curve in…

The super Weil-Petersson metric defined over the moduli space of smooth super curves produces a natural measure over the moduli space of smooth curves. The construction of the measure uses the extra data of a spin structure on each smooth…

We prove that the L^2 Riemannian metric on the manifold of all smooth Riemannian metrics on a fixed closed, finite-dimensional manifold induces a metric space structure. As the L^2 metric is a weak Riemannian metric, this fact does not…
