In this short note, we find a new gap phenomena on Riemannian manifolds, which says that for any complete noncompact Riemannian manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature, if the scalar curvature decays faster than quadratically, then it is…

In this short survey, we show how two (classes of) known examples of inhomogeneous, curvature homogeneous Riemannian manifolds with nontrivial $\kappa$-nullity can be seen as deformations of homogeneous metrics along the vertical…

This paper is devoted to Hardy inequalities concerning distance functions from submanifolds of arbitrary codimensions in the Riemannian setting. On a Riemannian manifold with non-negative curvature, we establish several sharp weighted Hardy…

We study the canonical metric on a compact Riemann surface of genus at least two. While it is known that the canonical metric is of nonpositive curvature, we show that its Gaussian curvatures are not bounded away from zero nor negative…

In this paper, we extend the sharp lower bounds of spectal gap, due to Chen- Wang [10, 11], Bakry-Qian [6] and Andrews-Clutterbuck [5], from smooth Riemaniannian manifolds to general metric measure spaces with Riemannian curvature-dimension…

The Dirichlet p-Laplacian in tubes of arbitrary cross-section along infinite curves in Euclidean spaces of arbitrary dimension is investigated. First, it is shown that the gap between the lowest point of the generalised spectrum and the…

Let $M$ be a closed differentiable manifold of dimension at least $3$. Let $\Lambda_0 (M)$ be the minimun number of non-positive eigenvalues that the conformal Laplacian of a metric on $M$ can have. We prove that for any $k$ greater than or…

We show that for a smooth manifold equipped with a singular Riemannian foliation, if the foliated metric has positive sectional curvature, and there exists a pre-section, that is a proper submanifold retaining all the transverse geometric…

Motivated by a recent groundbreaking work of Ontaneda, we describe a sizable class of closed manifolds such that the product of each manifold in the class with the real line admits a complete metric of bounded negative sectional curvature…

For a complete noncompact connected Riemannian manifold with bounded geometry, we prove the existence of isoperimetric regions in a larger space obtained by adding finitely many limit manifolds at infinity. As one of many possible…

We study the space of complete Riemannian metrics of nonnegative curvature on the plane equipped with the C^k topology. If k is infinite, we show that the space is homeomorphic to the separable Hilbert space. For any k we prove that the…

We discuss negatively curved homogeneous spaces admitting a simply transitive group of isometries, or equivalently, negatively curved left-invariant metrics on Lie groups. Negatively curved spaces have a remarkably rich and diverse…

We find new obstructions to the existence of complete Riemannian metric of nonnegative sectional curvature on manifolds with infinite fundamental groups. In particular, we construct many examples of vector bundles whose total spaces admit…

We prove that the imaginary parts of scattering resonances for negatively curved asymptotically hyperbolic surfaces are uniformly bounded away from zero and provide a resolvent bound in the resulting resonance-free strip. This provides an…

We study compact Riemannian manifolds for which the light between any pair of points is blocked by finitely many point shades. Compact flat Riemannian manifolds are known to have this finite blocking property. We conjecture that amongst…

On a smooth connected manifold, we consider all possible locally elliptic and locally bounded measurable coefficient Riemannian metrics called rough Riemannian metrics. We equip this set with an extended metric which is connected if and…

By making use of the classification of real simple Lie algebra, we get the maximum of the squared length of restricted roots case by case, thus we get the upper bounds of sectional curvature for irreducible Riemannian symmetric spaces of…

We introduce the $R$ cut-off covering spectrum and the cut-off covering spectrum of a complete length space or Riemannian manifold. The spectra measure the sizes of localized holes in the space and are defined using covering spaces called…

We show that the space of nonpositively curved metrics of a negatively curved manifold is highly non connected.

Let (X,d) be a finite metric space. This paper first discusses the spectrum of the p-distance matrix of a finite metric space of p-negative type and then gives upper and lower bounds for the so called gap of a finite metric space of strict…
