We study the existence of invariant Einstein metrics on real flag manifolds associated to simple and non-compact split real forms of complex classical Lie algebras whose isotropy representation decomposes into two or three irreducible…
We classify totally geodesic submanifolds of Damek-Ricci spaces and show that they are either homogeneous (such submanifolds are known to be "smaller" Damek-Ricci spaces) or isometric to rank-one symmetric spaces of negative curvature. As a…
We consider the Einstein constraints on asymptotically euclidean manifolds $M$ of dimension $n \geq 3$ with sources of both scaled and unscaled types. We extend to asymptotically euclidean manifolds the constructive method of proof of…
For a noncompact 3-manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature, we prove that either it is diffeomorphic to $\mathbb{R}^3$ or the universal cover splits. As a corollary, it confirms a conjecture of Milnor in dimension 3.
We generalize the coset procedure of homogeneous spacetimes in (pseudo-)Riemannian geometry to non-Lorentzian geometries. These are manifolds endowed with nowhere vanishing invertible vielbeins that transform under local non-Lorentzian…
We obtain a volume growth and curvature decay result for various classes of complete, noncompact Riemannian metrics in dimension 4; in particular our method applies to anti-self-dual or Kahler metrics with zero scalar curvature, and metrics…
We study positive scalar curvature on the regular part of Riemannian manifolds with singular, uniformly Euclidean ($L^\infty$) metrics that consolidate Gromov's scalar curvature polyhedral comparison theory and edge metrics that appear in…
We prove for $n\in\{3,4,5\}$ that the connected sum of a closed aspherical $n$-manifold with an arbitrary non-compact manifold does not admit a complete metric with nonnegative scalar curvature. In particular, a special case of our result…
Kobayashi [Duke Math. J. (1992)] gave a necessary condition for the existence of compact Clifford-Klein forms in terms of Cartan projections and non-compact dimensions of reductive subgroups. We extend his method to non-reductive subgroups,…
We prove an obstruction at the level of rational cohomology in small degrees to the existence of positively curved metrics with large symmetry rank. The symmetry rank bound is logarithmic in the dimension of the manifold. As an application,…
The Ricci iteration is a discrete analogue of the Ricci flow. We give the first study of the Ricci iteration on a class of Riemannian manifolds that are not K\"ahler. The Ricci iteration in the non-K\"ahler setting exhibits new phenomena.…
In this article, we achieved several non-naturally reductive Einstein metrics on exceptional simple Lie groups, which are formed by the decomposition arising from general Wallach spaces. By using the decomposition corresponding to the two…
Optimal weighted Sobolev-Lorentz embeddings with homogeneous weights in open convex cones are established, with the exact value of the optimal constant. These embeddings are non-compact, and this paper investigates the structure of their…
We extend the celebrated rigidity of the sharp first spectral gap under $Ric\ge0$ to compact infinitesimally Hilbertian spaces with non-negative (weak, also called synthetic) Ricci curvature and bounded (synthetic) dimension i.e. to…
We prove two rigidity theorems on holomorphic isometries into homogeneous bounded domains. The first shows that a K\"ahler-Ricci soliton induced by the homogeneous metric of a homogeneous bounded domain is trivial, i.e. K\"ahler-Einstein.…
Given a nilpotent Lie algebra, we study the space of all diagonalizable derivations such that the corresponding one-dimensional solvable extension admits a left-invariant metric with negative Ricci curvature. It has been conjectured by…
We show that a certain family of cohomogeneity one manifolds does not admit an invariant metric of nonnegative sectional curvature, unless it admits one with positive curvature. As a consequence, the classification of nonnegatively curved…
We classify the $5$-dimensional homogeneous geometries in the sense of Thurston. The present paper (part 2 of 3) classifies those in which the linear isotropy representation is either irreducible or trivial. The $5$-dimensional geometries…
We prove existence of isoperimetric regions for every volume in non-compact Riemannian $n$-manifolds $(M,g)$, $n\geq 2$, having Ricci curvature $Ric_g\geq (n-1) k_0 g$ and being locally asymptotic to the simply connected space form of…
We show that the set of awesome homogeneous metrics on non-compact manifolds is Ricci flow invariant. Moreover, if the universal cover of such awesome homogeneous space is not contractible the Ricci flow has finite extinction time,…
