On a closed Riemannian surface $(M,\bar g)$ with negative Euler characteristic, we study the problem of finding conformal metrics with prescribed volume $A>0$ and the property that their Gauss curvatures $f_\lambda= f + \lambda$ are given…
Given a prescription of unparametrised paths on a manifold $M$, one path for each tangent direction, we may ask whether these paths agree with the geodesics of a Riemannian metric on $M$. Generically, this is not the case. Motivated by this…
The study of radial prescribing scalar curvature of X.Xu and P.C.Yang [2] in 1993 showed a nonexistence result on $S^2$. Later in 1995, W.Chen and C.Li [2] generalized the nonexistence result to higher dimensions. G.Bianchi and E.Egnell [1]…

In this paper, we consider the problem of existence and multiplicity of conformal metrics on a riemannian compact $4-$dimensional manifold $(M^4,g_0)$ with positive scalar curvature. We prove new exitence criterium which provides existence…
By using the Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction method without perturbation, we consider existence results for the conformal scalar curvature on S^n (n greater or equal to 3) when the prescribed function (after being projected to R^n) has two close…
In this paper, we bend a closed Riemannian manifold in the conformal class, through solving a fully nonlinear equation. As a result, we prove that each metric of quasi-negative Ricci curvature is conformal to a metric with negative Ricci…
We show that an $n-$dimensional Moishezon manifold is uniruled if and only if it supports a balanced metric $\omega^{n-1}$ of positive total scalar Chern curvature. A similar statement also holds true for class $\mathcal C$ manifolds of…
We study the set of curvature functions which a given compact manifold with boundary can possess. First, we prove that the sign demanded by the Gauss-Bonnet Theorem is a necessary and sufficient condition for a given function to be the…
We prove that on any compact complex manifold one can find Gauduchon metrics with prescribed volume form. This is equivalent to prescribing the Chern-Ricci curvature of the metrics, and thus solves a conjecture of Gauduchon from 1984.
In this paper we address two boundary cases of the classical Kazdan-Warner problem. More precisely, we consider the problem of prescribing the Gaussian and boundary geodesic curvature on a disk of R^2, and the scalar and mean curvature on a…
In this work, we study various properties of embedded hypersurfaces in $1+1+2$ decomposed spacetimes with a preferred spatial direction, denoted $e^{\mu}$, which are orthogonal to the fluid flow velocity of the spacetime and admit a proper…
We solve the modified Kazdan-Warner problem of finding metrics with prescribed scalar curvature and unit total volume.
The Chern--Simons term is used in the geometric theory of defects. The equilibrium equations with $\delta$-function source are explicitly solved with respect to the $SO(3)$ connection. This solution describes one straight linear…
Extending Aubin's construction of metrics with constant negative scalar curvature, we prove that every $n$-dimensional closed manifold admits a Riemannian metric with constant negative scalar-Weyl curvature, that is $R+t|W|,…
In our previous work, we introduced a special type of Hermitian metrics called {\em torsion-critical,} which are non-K\"ahler critical points of the $L^2$-norm of Chern torsion over the space of all Hermitian metrics with unit volume on a…
It is shown that many results, previously believed to be properties of the Lichnerowicz Ricci curvature, hold for the Ricci curvature of all Gauduchon connections. We prove the existence of $t$--Gauduchon Ricci-flat metrics on the…
We study the problem of prescribing the Gaussian curvature on the disk and the geodesic curvature on its boundary via a conformal change of the metric. In this paper the case of negative Gaussian curvature is treated, a regime for which the…
In this paper we investigate complete critical metrics of the $L^{2}$-norm of the scalar curvature. We prove that any complete critical metric with positive scalar curvature has constant scalar curvature and we characterize critical metrics…
