We introduce a property of compact complex manifolds under which the existence of balanced metric is stable by small deformations of the complex structure. This property, which is weaker than the $\partial\overline\partial$-Lemma, is…

We introduce a new geometric approach to a manifold equipped with a smooth density function that takes a torsion-free affine connection, as opposed to a weighted measure or Laplacian, as the fundamental object of study. The connection…

We establish variational formulas for Ricci upper and lower bounds, as well as a derivative formula for the Ricci curvature. As applications, constant curvature manifolds, Einstein manifolds and Ricci parallel manifolds are identified,…

In Riemannian geometry the prescribed Ricci curvature problem is as follows: given a smooth manifold $M$ and a symmetric 2-tensor $r$, construct a metric on $M$ whose Ricci tensor equals $r$. In particular, DeTurck and Koiso proved the…

We present several deformation and rigidity results within the classes of closed Riemannian manifolds which either are $2k$-Einstein (in the sense that their $2k$-Ricci tensor is constant) or have constant $2k$-Gauss-Bonnet curvature. The…

We consider a condition on the Ricci curvature involving vector fields, which is broader than the Bakry-\'Emery Ricci condition. Under this condition volume comparison, Laplacian comparison, isoperimetric inequality and gradient bounds are…

We consider a simple and natural coboundary operator, on the Lie algebra valued differential forms on a manifold, which in the abelian case reduces to usual exterior derivative of such forms. Using the corresponding de Rham cohomology Lie…

This paper is devoted to the study of a problem arising from a geometric context, namely the conformal deformation of a Riemannian metric to a scalar flat one having constant mean curvature on the boundary. By means of blow-up analysis…
