Uniqueness (up to isometries) and existence of limits are studied in the context of Cheeger-Gromov convergence of spacetimes. To address the non-compactness of the vector isometry group in the semi-Riemannian setting, standard pointed…
This paper is concerned with "nice" compactifications of manifolds. Siebenmann's iconic dissertation characterized open manifolds M^m (m>5) compactifiable by addition of a manifold boundary. His theorem extends easily to cases where M^m is…
We consider the class of compact n-dimensional Riemannian manifolds with cylindrical boundary, Ricci curvature bounded below by a given constant and injectivity radius bounded below by a positive constant, away from the boundary. For a…
We study the set of curvature functions which a given compact manifold with boundary can possess. First, we prove that the sign demanded by the Gauss-Bonnet Theorem is a necessary and sufficient condition for a given function to be the…
The aim of this paper is to provide a proof for a version of Morse inequality for manifolds with boundary. Our main results are certainly known to the experts on Morse theory, nevertheless it seems necessary to write down a complete proof…
We give a brief literature review of the isoperimetric problem and discuss its relationship with the Cheeger constant of Riemannian $n$-manifolds. For some non-compact, finite area 2-manifolds, we prove the existence and regularity of…
Let $M$ be a compact connected surface with boundary. We prove that the signal condition given by the Gauss-Bonnet theorem is necessary and sufficient for a given smooth function $f$ on $\partial M$ (resp. on $M$) to be geodesic curvature…
We show that for a noncollapsing sequence of closed, connected, oriented Riemannian manifolds with Ricci curvature uniformly bounded from below and diameter uniformly bounded above, Gromov-Hausdorff convergence essentially agrees with…
For each arbitrary finite group $G$, we consider a suitable notion of Gromov Hausdorff distance between compact $G$ metric spaces and derive lower bounds based on equivariant topology methods. As applications, we prove equivariant rigidity…
In this paper, we study the Steklov eigenvalue of a Riemannian manifold (M, g) with smooth boundary. For compact M , we establish a Cheeger-type inequality for the first Steklov eigenvalue by the isocapacitary constant. For non-compact M ,…
By adapting the Cheeger-Simons approach to differential cohomology, we establish a notion of differential cohomology with compact support. We show that it is functorial with respect to open embeddings and that it fits into a natural diagram…
In [31,32,33] the Gauss-Bonnet formulas for coherent tangent bundles over compact oriented surfaces (without boundary) were proved. We establish the Gauss-Bonnet theorem for coherent tangent bundles over compact oriented surfaces with…
We will show the Cheeger-Colding segment inequality for manifolds with integral Ricci curvature bound. By using this segment inequality, the almost rigidity structure results for integral Ricci curvature will be derived by a similar method…
We study the Mosco-convergence of Cheeger energies on Gromov-Hausdorff converging spaces satisfying different types of curvature dimension conditions. The case of functions of bounded variation is also considered. Applications to the…
We prove a compactness result for holomorphic curves with boundary on an immersed Lagrangian submanifold with clean self-intersection. As a consequence, we show that the number of intersections of such holomorphic curves with the…
We provide an upper bound for the Gromov width of compact homogeneous Hodge manifolds $(M, \omega)$ with $b_2(M)=1$. As an application we obtain an upper bound on the Seshadri constant $\epsilon (L)$ where $L$ is the ample line bundle on…
We consider sequences of open Riemannian manifolds with boundary that have no regularity conditions on the boundary. To define a reasonable notion of a limit of such a sequence, we examine "$\delta$ inner regions" which avoid the boundary…
We prove compactness of solutions of a fully nonlinear Yamabe problem satisfying a lower Ricci curvature bound, when the manifold is not conformally diffeomorphic to the standard sphere. This allows us to prove the existence of solutions…
We prove a compactness result for minimal hypersurfaces with bounded index and volume, which can be thought of as an extension of the compactness theorem of Choi-Schoen (Invent. Math. 1985) to higher dimensions.
For non-compact manifolds with boundary we prove that bounded geometry defined by coordinate-free curvature bounds is equivalent to bounded geometry defined using bounds on the metric tensor in geodesic coordinates. We produce a nice atlas…
