We show that the existence of a nontrivial Massey product in the cohomology ring H^*(X) imposes global constraints upon the Riemannian geometry of a manifold X. Namely, we exhibit a suitable systolic inequality, associated to such a…
Combining local bifurcation analysis with numerical continuation and bifurcation methods we study bifurcations from cylindrical vesicles described by the Helfrich equation with volume and area constraints, with a prescribed periodicity…
In this article, we investigate electrostatic systems with a nonzero cosmological constant on compact manifolds with boundary. We establish new geometric properties for electrostatic manifolds in higher dimensions, extending previous…
We extend results of Bhagwat and Rajan on a strong multiplicity one property for length spectrum to hyperbolic manifolds with cusps, showing that for two even dimensional hyperbolic manifolds of finite volume, if all but finitely many…
We take advantage of the principal bundle geometry of the space of connections to obtain general results on the presymplectic structure of two classes of (pure) gauge theories: invariant theories, and non-invariant theories satisfying two…
We establish a Cauchy type inequality for the geometric intersection number between two 1-dimensional submanifolds in a surface. Some of the basic results in Thurston's theory of measured laminations on surfaces are derived from the Cauchy…
We present a description of two dimensional Yang-Mills gauge theory on the plane and on compact surfaces, examining the topological, geometric and probabilistic aspects.
In this paper the notion of quasi-isometry between two Riemannian manifolds has been introduced. This idea is also imposed to study quasi-isometry between two almost contact metric manifolds. Moving further, some curvature properties of two…
We investigate the geometric properties of Steklov eigenfunctions in smooth manifolds. We derive the refined doubling estimates and Bernstein's inequalities. For the real analytic manifolds, we are able to obtain the sharp upper bound for…
These are expanded notes from a four lecture mini-course given by the author at the Spring School on Non-archimedean geometry and Eigenvarieties, held at the University of Heidelberg in March 2023. The course discusses coherent sheaves,…
This is a revised version of a tutorial lecture that I presented at the \`Ecole de Physique des Houches on July 26-31 2020. Topics include Non-parametric Information Geometry, the Statistical bundle, exponential Orlicz spaces, and Gaussian…
These are the lecture notes of a set of lectures delivered at the 1995 Trieste summer school in June. I review some recent work on duality in four dimensional Maxwell theory on arbitrary four manifolds, as well as a new set of topological…
In this article we address a number of features of the moduli space of spherical metrics on connected, compact, orientable surfaces with conical singularities of assigned angles, such as its non-emptiness and connectedness. We also consider…
By studying connectedness at infinity of systolic groups we distinguish them from some other classes of groups, in particular from the fundamental groups of manifolds covered by euclidean space of dimension at least three. We also study…

We establish the two-term spectral asymptotics for boundary value problems of linear elasticity on a smooth compact Riemannian manifold of arbitrary dimension. We also present some illustrative examples and give a historical overview of the…
We construct bi-Lipschitz embeddings into Euclidean space for manifolds and orbifolds of bounded diameter and curvature. The distortion and dimension of such embeddings is bounded by diameter, curvature and dimension alone. Our results also…
The object of investigations are almost contact B-metric manifolds which are derived as a product of a real line and a 2-dimensional manifold equipped with a complex structure and a Norden metric. There are used two different methods for…

We establish several inequalities for manifolds with positive scalar curvature and, more generally, for the scalar curvature bounded from below, in the spirit of the classical bound on the distances between conjugates points in surfaces…
