Strong ellipticity is an important property in the elasticity theory. In 2009, M-eigenvalues were introduced for the elasticity tensor. It was shown that M-eigenvalues are invariant under coordinate system choices, and the strong…
We consider an asymptotically flat Riemannian spin manifold of positive scalar curvature. An inequality is derived which bounds the Riemann tensor in terms of the total mass and quantifies in which sense curvature must become small when the…
On a Riemannian or a semi-Riemannian manifold, the metric determines invariants like the Levi-Civita connection and the Riemann curvature. If the metric becomes degenerate (as in singular semi-Riemannian geometry), these constructions no…
We derive a formula for the curvature tensor of the natural Riemannian metric on the space of two-dimensional conformal field theories and also a formula for the curvature tensor of the space of boundary conformal field theories.
An algebraic curvature tensor is called Osserman if the eigenvalues of the associated Jacobi operator are constant on the unit sphere. A Riemannian manifold is called conformally Osserman if its Weyl conformal curvature tensor at every…
Here we consider the discrete time dynamics described by a transformation $T:M \to M$, where $T$ is the shift and $M=\{1,2,...,d\}^\mathbb{N}$. It is known that the infinite-dimensional manifold $\mathcal{N}$ of H\"older equilibrium…
A Riemannian manifold is called Osserman (conformally Osserman, respectively), if the eigenvalues of the Jacobi operator of its curvature tensor (Weyl tensor, respectively) are constant on the unit tangent sphere at every point. Osserman…

We characterize manifolds which are locally conformally equivalent to either complex projective space or to its negative curvature dual in terms of their Weyl curvature tensor. As a byproduct of this investigation, we classify the…
Curvature properties of a metric connection with totally skew-symmetric torsion are investigated. It is shown that if either the 3-form $T$ is harmonic, $dT=\delta T=0$ or the curvature of the torsion connection $R\in S^2\Lambda^2$ then the…
In this paper, we investigate the rigidity of Q-curvature. Specifically, we consider a closed, oriented $n$-dimensional ($n\geq6$) Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ and prove the following results under the condition $\int_{M} \nabla R\cdot\nabla…
In this paper, we study the problem of conformally deforming a metric on a $3$-dimensional manifold $M^3$ such that its $k$-curvature equals to a prescribed function, where the $k$-curvature is defined by the $k$-th elementary symmetric…
The twistor space \Z of an oriented Riemannian 4-manifold M admits a natural 1-parameter family of Riemannian metrics h_t compatible with the almost complex structures J_1 and J_2 introduced, respectively, by Atiyah, Hitchin and Singer, and…
We study two types of isotropic planes: weakly isotropic and strongly isotropic planes. We prove that a Riemannian manifold of indefinite metric is conformally flat if and only if its curvature tensor vanishes on all the strongly isotropic…
The Schouten tensor \ $A$ \ of a Riemannian manifold \ $(M,g)$ provides important scalar curvature invariants $\sigma_k$, that are the symmetric functions on the eigenvalues of $A$, where, in particular, $\sigma_1$ \ coincides with the…
It is proved that every locally conformal flat Riemannian manifold all of whose Jacobi operators have constant eigenvalues along every geodesic is with constant principal Ricci curvatures. A local classification (up to an isometry) of…
