We consider the relation between simplicial volume and two of its variants: the stable integral simplicial volume and the integral foliated simplicial volume. The definition of the latter depends on a choice of a measure preserving action…
A noncompact (oriented) surface satisfies the condition $(\star)$ if their isolated ends are ''accumulated by genus''. We show that every surface satisfying this condition is homeomorfic to the leaf of a minimal codimension one foliation on…
We show that for any closed Riemannian manifold with dimension at least two and with nonpositive curvature, if it admits an isolated, closed totally geodesic submanifold of codimension one, then its simplicial volume is positive. As a…
Given a compact Riemannian manifold with density $M$ without boundary and the real line $\mathbb{R}$ with constant density, we prove that isoperimetric regions of large volume in $M\times\mathbb{R}$ with the product density are slabs of the…
In general relativity, there have been a number of successful constructions for asymptotically flat metrics with a certain background foliation. In particular, C. -Y. Lin used a foliation by the Ricci flow on 2-spheres to establish an…
We prove that the graded ring of modular forms of weight divisible by 3 is naturally isomorphic to a certain log canonical ring of the corresponding elliptic modular surface.
In this paper, we are able to prove an analogy of the Calabi-Yau theorem for complete Riemannian manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature which are aspherical at infinity. The key tool is an existence result for arbitrarily large bounded…
We prove the existence of compact surfaces with prescribed constant mean curvature in asymptotically flat and asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds. More precisely, let $(M^3,g)$ be an asymptotically flat manifold with scalar curvature $R\ge…
We use maximal periodic flats to show that on a finite volume irreducible locally symmetric manifold of dimension $\geq 3$, no metric $g$ has more symmetry than the locally symmetric metric. We also show that if $g$ is a finite volume…
In this paper, we study polyhedral 3-manifolds with nonnegative curvature and integral monodromy, two conditions motivated by Thurston's work in arXiv:math/9801088. We classify the 32 isometry types of codimension 3 singularities in such…
We deal with suitable nonlinear versions of Jauregui's isocapacitary mass in 3-manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature and compact outermost minimal boundary. These masses, which depend on a parameter $1<p\leq 2$, interpolate between…
Let (M,g) be a complete, simply connected Riemannian manifold of dimension 3 without conjugate points. We show that M is a hyperbolic manifold of constant sectional curvature, provided M is asymptotically harmonic of constant h > 0.
We prove a new positive mass theorem for three-dimensional manifolds which are asymptotically hyperboloidal of order greater than $1$. The mass quantity under consideration is the volume-renormalized mass recently introduced in a paper by…
In this paper, we obtain the isoperimetric inequality on conformally flat manifold with finite total $Q$-curvature. This is a higher dimensional analogue of Li and Tam's result \cite{L-T} on surfaces with finite total Gaussian curvature.…
Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a foliation with a "singular" submanifold $B$ on a smooth manifold $M$ and $p:E \to B$ be a regular neighborhood of $B$ in $M$. Under certain "homogeneity" assumptions on $\mathcal{F}$ near $B$ we prove that every leaf…
In 1996, Huisken-Yau proved that every three-dimensional Riemannian manifold can be uniquely foliated near infinity by stable closed surfaces of constant mean curvature (CMC) if it is asymptotically equal to the (spatial) Schwarzschild…
The focal submanifolds of isoparametric hypersurfaces in spheres are all minimal Willmore submanifolds, mostly being $\mathcal{A}$-manifolds in the sense of A.Gray but rarely Ricci-parallel (\cite{QTY},\cite{LY},\cite{TY3}). In this paper…
We provide a harmonic level set proof of the positive mass theorem for asymptotically flat $3$-manifolds with a non-compact boundary first established by Almaraz-Barbosa-de Lima.
In this paper, we focus on Hamilton's pinching conjecture formulated in Hamilton's paper "Three-manifolds with positive Ricci curvature". Let $(M, g)$ be a complete, connected, noncompact Riemannian $3$-manifold satisfying the…
We show that the space of metrics of positive scalar curvature on any 3-manifold is either empty or contractible. Second, we show that the diffeomorphism group of every 3-dimensional spherical space form deformation retracts to its isometry…
