Given a conformal metric with finite total Q-curvature, we show that the assumptions on scalar curvature sensitively govern the Q-curvature integral. Additionally, we introduce a conformal mass for such manifolds. Using such mass, we…

Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold and $\theta$ a smooth closed $(1,1)$-real form representing a big cohomology class $\alpha \in H^{1,1}(X,\R)$. The purpose of this note is to show, using pluripotential and viscosity techniques, that…

We prove that closed manifolds admitting a generic metric whose sectional curvature is locally quasi-constant are graphs of space forms. In the more general setting of QC spaces where sets of isotropic points are arbitrary, under suitable…

In this article, we define a symmetric 2-tensor canonically associated to Q-curvature called J-tensor on any Riemannian manifold with dimension at least three. The relation between J-tensor and Q-curvature is precisely like Ricci tensor and…

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…

Q-prime curvature, which was introduced by J. Case and P. Yang, is a local invariant of pseudo-hermitian structure on CR manifolds that can be defined only when the Q-curvature vanishes identically. It is considered as a secondary invariant…

The quantum cohomology algebra of a projective manifold X is the cohomology H(X,Q) endowed with a different algebra structure, which takes into account the geometry of rational curves in X. We show that this algebra takes a remarkably…

In this paper we derive strong linear inequalities for sets of the form {(x, q) \in Rd \times R : q \geq Q(x), x \in Rd - int(P)}, where Q(x) : Rd \rightarrow R is a quadratic function, P \subset Rd and "int" denotes interior. Of particular…

We show that if $Q$ is a closed, reduced, complex orbifold of dimension $n$ such that every local group acts as a subgroup of $SU(2) < SU(n)$, then the $K$-theory of the unique crepant resolution of $Q$ is isomorphic to the orbifold…
