The spaces of Riemannian metrics on a closed manifold $M$ are studied. On the space ${\mathcal M}$ of all Riemannian metrics on $M$ the various weak Riemannian structures are defined and the corresponding connections are studied. The space…
This is the lecture notes on the interplay between optimal transport and Riemannian geometry. On a Riemannian manifold, the convexity of entropy along optimal transport in the space of probability measures characterizes lower bounds of the…
Scalar-tensor gravitation theories, such as the Brans-Dicke family of theories, are commonly partly described by a modified Einstein equation in which the Ricci tensor is replaced by the Bakry-\'Emery-Ricci tensor of a Lorentzian metric and…
We prove that if $(X,\mathsf d,\mathfrak m)$ is an essentially non-branching metric measure space with $\mathfrak m(X)=1$, having Ricci curvature bounded from below by $K$ and dimension bounded from above by $N \in (1,\infty)$, understood…
We prove the equivalences of several classical complete metrics on the Teichm\"uller and the moduli spaces of Riemann surfaces. We use as bridge two new K\"ahler metrics, the Ricci metric and the perturbed Ricci metric and prove that the…
For metric measure spaces verifying the reduced curvature-dimension condition $CD^*(K,N)$ we prove a series of sharp functional inequalities under the additional assumption of essentially non-branching. Examples of spaces entering this…
We prove that some Riemannian manifolds with boundary under an explicit integral pinching are spherical space forms. Precisely, we show that 3-dimensional Riemannian manifolds with totally geodesic boundary, positive scalar curvature and an…
A. Derdzinki [D] gave examples of Riemannian metrics with harmonic curvature and non parallel Ricci tensor on some compact manifolds $(M,g]$ . We examine their existence as well as their number wich naturally depends on the geometry of the…
This is the second article of a sequence of research on deformations of Q-curvature. In the previous one, we studied local stability and rigidity phenomena of Q-curvature. In this article, we mainly investigate the volume comparison with…
We study the Bakry-\'Emery curvature function $\mathcal{K}_{G,x}:(0,\infty]\to \mathbb{R}$ of a vertex $x$ in a locally finite graph $G$ systematically. Here $\mathcal{K}_{G,x}(\mathcal{N})$ is defined as the optimal curvature lower bound…
In this paper, we first derive a pinching estimate on the traceless Ricci curvature in term of scalar curvature and Weyl tensor under the Ricci flow. Then we apply this estimate to study finite-time singularity behavior. We show that if the…
This work is devoted to the geometric analysis of metric-measure spaces satisfying a Prekopa-Leindler or a more general Borell-Brascamp-Lieb inequality. Completing the early investigations by Cordero-Erausquin, McCann and Schmuckenschlager,…
Quantum metrology is deeply connected to quantum geometry, through the fundamental notion of quantum Fisher information. Inspired by advances in topological matter, it was recently suggested that the Berry curvature and Chern numbers of…
We prove that a complete Riemannian manifold with a positive uniform lower bound on injectivity radius and a positive uniform lower bound on Ricci curvature admits an $L^\infty$-close (bi-Lipschitz) smooth metric with two-sided Ricci…
This note is dedicated to the study of the asymptotic behaviour of sets of finite perimeter over RCD(K,N) metric measure spaces. Our main result asserts existence of a Euclidean tangent half-space almost everywhere with respect to the…
In this note, using some regular triangular tilings of the sphere, the Euclidean plane and the hyperbolic plane, we examine the potential relationship between their discrete Bakry - Emery curvatures and the smooth curvatures of their…
The main subject of this expository paper is a connection between Gromov's filling volumes and a boundary rigidity problem of determining a Riemannian metric in a compact domain by its boundary distance function. A fruitful approach is to…

The paper investigates higher dimensional analogues of Burago's inequality bounding the area of a closed surface by its total curvature. We obtain sufficient conditions for hypersurfaces in 4-space that involve the Ricci curvature. We get…
