We establish theorems on the existence and compactness of solutions to the $\sigma_2$-Nirenberg problem on the standard sphere $\mathbb S^2$. A first significant ingredient, a Liouville type theorem for the associated fully nonlinear…
We study critical Riemannian 4-manifolds with a lower bound on Ricci curvature, but no a priori analytic constraints such as on Sobolev constants. We derive elliptic-type estimates for the local curvature radius, which itself controls…

We study certain typical semilinear elliptic equations in Euclidean space $\bR^{n}$ or on a closed manifold $M$ with nonnegative Ricci curvature. Our proof is based on a crucial integral identity constructed by the invariant tensor method.…
Let X be a closed manifold with zero Euler characteristic, and let f: X --> S^1 be a circle-valued Morse function. We define an invariant I which counts closed orbits of the gradient of f, together with flow lines between the critical…
We consider some variations on the classical method of Runge for effectively determining integral points on certain curves. We first prove a version of Runge's theorem valid for higher-dimensional varieties, generalizing a uniform version…
We introduce two tools, dynamical thickening and flow selectors, to overcome the infamous discontinuity of the gradient flow endpoint map near non-degenerate critical points. More precisely, we interpret the stable fibrations of certain…
We establish existence and multiplicity theorems for a Dirichlet boundary value problem at resonance, which is a nonlinear subcritical perturbation of a linear eigenvalue problem studied by Cuesta. Our framework includes a sign-changing…
In this thesis we deal with two different classes of variational problems: 1) the problem of closed curves with prescribed curvature, or $H$-loop problem; 2) the study of the nodal solutions of the fractional Brezis-Nirenberg problem. In…

We describe an extension of Morse theory to smooth functions on compact Riemannian manifolds, without any nondegeneracy assumptions except that the critical locus must have only finitely many connected components.
As a first step at developing a theory of noncommutative nonlinear elliptic partial differential equations, we analyze noncommutative analogues of Laplace's equation and its variants (some of the them nonlinear) over noncommutative tori.…
