We show that the structure of proper holomorphic maps between the $n$-fold symmetric products, $n\geq 2$, of a pair of non-compact Riemann surfaces $X$ and $Y$, provided these are reasonably nice, is very rigid. Specifically, any such map…

A product system E over a semigroup P is a family of Hilbert spaces {E_s:s\in P} together with multiplications E_s \times E_t\to E_{st}. We view E as a unitary- valued cocycle on P, and consider twisted crossed products A \times_{\beta,E} P…

In recent years finite tensor products of reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces (RKHSs) of Gaussian kernels on the one hand and of Hermite spaces on the other hand have been considered in tractability analysis of multivariate problems. In the…

We construct non-zero constant mean curvature H surfaces in the product spaces $\mathbb{S}^2 \times \mathbb{R}$ and $\mathbb{H}^2\times \mathbb{R}$ by using suitable conjugate Plateau constructions. The resulting surfaces are complete, have…

We introduce the notions of pointwise almost h-slant submanifolds and pointwise almost h-semi-slant submanifolds as a generalization of slant submanifolds, pointwise slant submanifolds, semi-slant submanifolds, and pointwise semi-slant…

We prove that the integral cohomology ring modulo torsion $H^*(\mathrm{Sym}^n X;\mathbb{Z})/\mathrm{Tor}$ for the symmetric product of a connected CW-complex $X$ of finite homology type is a functor of $H^*(X;\mathbb{Z})/\mathrm{Tor}$ (see…

By work of Kirby-Siebenmann \cite{KirbySiebenmann} and Kervaire-Milnor \cite{KervaireMilnor}, there are only finitely many smooth manifolds homeomorphic to a given closed topological manifold. A construction involving Whitehead torsion…

We generalise a result of Garofalo and Pauls: a horizontally minimal smooth surface embedded in the Heisenberg group is locally a (straight) ruled surface, i.e. it consists of straight lines tangent to a horizontal vector field along a…

We prove that if $X = X_1 \times \dots \times X_n$ is a product of hyperbolic Riemann surfaces of finite type and $Y = \Omega/\Gamma$ is a complex manifold, where $\Omega$ is a bounded simply-connected domain in $\mathbb{C}^m$, then the…

Let $M$ be a closed spin manifold which supports a positive scalar curvature metric. The set of concordance classes of positive scalar curvature metrics on $M$ forms an abelian group $P(M)$ after fixing a positive scalar curvature metric.…

Warped product manifolds with p-dimensional base, p=1,2, satisfy some curvature conditions of pseudosymmetry type. These conditions are formed from the metric tensor g, the Riemann-Christoffel curvature tensor R, the Ricci tensor S and the…

We study isomorphism classes of symplectic dual pairs P <- S -> P-, where P is an integrable Poisson manifold, S is symplectic, and the two maps are complete, surjective Poisson submersions with connected and simply-connected fibres. For…

Let $(M^n, g)$ and $(X^m, h)$ be closed manifolds $m, n>2$, such that $(X, h)$ has constant positive scalar curvature. We consider the one parameter family of products $(M\times X, g+\epsilon^2 h)$, $\epsilon>0$. We prove that if either the…

We establish the existence of a non-trivial, branched immersion of a closed Riemann surface $\Sigma$ with constant mean curvature (CMC) $H$ into any closed, orientable 3-manifold $\mathcal{M}$, for almost every prescribed value of $H$. The…

Relying on work of Caprace and Sageev \cite{capracesageev:rank}, we provide an effective form of rank rigidity in the context of groups virtually acting freely cocompactly on a CAT(0) cube complex with a factor system. We accomplish this by…

In this paper, we investigate the geometry of the base complex manifold of an effectively parametrized holomorphic family of stable Higgs bundles over a fixed compact K\"{a}hler manifold. The starting point of our study is…

Given a product X of locally compact rank one Hadamard spaces, we study asymptotic properties of certain discrete isometry groups. First we give a detailed description of the structure of the geometric limit set and relate it to the limit…

In this note, we prove the existence of one particular class of starshaped compact hypersurfaces, by deriving global curvature estimates for such hypersurfaces; this generalizes the main result in [Hypersurfaces of prescribed mixed…

We obtain a family of strict $\hat G$-invariant products on the space of holomorphic functions on a semisimple coadjoint orbit of a complex connected semisimple Lie group $\hat G$. By restriction, we also obtain strict $G$-invariant…

The stable systolic category of a closed manifold M indicates the complexity in the sense of volume. This is a homotopy invariant, even though it is defined by some relations between homological volumes on M. We show an equality of the…
