According to folklore in general relativity, the Weyl tensor can be decomposed into parts corresponding to Newton-like, incoming and outgoing wavelike field components. It is shown here that this one-to-one correspondence does not hold for…
In this paper, we will prove a gap theorem for four-dimensional gradient shrinking soliton. More precisely, we will show that any complete four-dimensional gradient shrinking soliton with nonnegative and bounded Ricci curvature, satisfying…
We prove that if a compact K\"ahler Poisson manifold has a symplectic leaf with finite fundamental group, then after passing to a finite \'etale cover, it decomposes as the product of the universal cover of the leaf and some other Poisson…
The Sachs equations governing the evolution of the optical matrix of geodetic WANDs (Weyl aligned null directions) are explicitly solved in n-dimensions in several cases which are of interest in potential applications. This is then used to…
We show that Chern-Weil theory for tensor bundles over manifolds is a consequence of the existence of natural closed differential forms on total spaces of torsion free connections on frame bundles.
We prove a Weyl upper bound on the number of scattering resonances in strips for manifolds with Euclidean infinite ends. In contrast with previous results, we do not make any strong structural assumptions on the geodesic flow on the trapped…
We show any Weyl curvature model can be geometrically realized by a Weyl manifold
We give a geometric proof of a theorem of Weyl on the continuous part of the spectrum of Sturm-Liouville operators on the half-line with asymptotically constant coefficients. Earlier proofs due to Weyl and Kodaira depend on special features…
The convex hull peeling of a point set is obtained by taking the convex hull of the set and repeating iteratively the operation on the interior points until no point remains. The boundary of each hull is called a layer. We study the number…
The asymptotic behaviour of the components of the Weyl tensor and of the energy-momentum tensor in the Penrose limit is determined. In both cases a peeling-off property is found. Examples of different types of matter are provided. The…
We explain how to use representation theory to give a lower bound on the dimension of the quotient ring by type $B_n$ diagonal invariants that improves upon the current known lower bound $(2n+1)^n$ by a quadratic polynomial in $n$.
We develop the theory of Poisson and Dirac manifolds of compact types, a broad generalization in Poisson and Dirac geometry of compact Lie algebras and Lie groups. We establish key structural results, including local normal forms, canonical…
We show that a Weyl law holds for the variational spectrum of the $p$-Laplacian. More precisely, let $(\lambda_i)_{i=1}^\infty$ be the variational spectrum of $\Delta_p$ on a closed Riemannian manifold $(X,g)$ and let $N(\lambda) = \#\{i:\,…
We give a complete picture of when the tensor product of an induced module and a Weyl module is a tilting module for the algebraic group $SL_2$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$. Whilst the result is recursive by…
The algebraic classification of the Weyl tensor in arbitrary dimension n is recovered by means of the principal directions of its "superenergy" tensor. This point of view can be helpful in order to compute the Weyl aligned null directions…
The Lanczos potential for the Weyl tensor is derived from a quadratic curvature Lagrangian by making use of the exterior algebra of forms and the variational principles with constraints.
We establish several Witten type rigidity and vanishing theorems for twisted Toeplitz operators on odd dimensional manifolds. We obtain our results by combining the modular method, modular transgression and some careful analysis of odd…
In this article, we give a new proof of a result due to J. Kim, which states that the Ricci tensor of a gradient Ricci soliton with dimension $n \geq 4$ and harmonic Weyl tensor has at most three distinct eigenvalues. This result…
The algebraic study of the Bel-Robinson tensor proposed and initiated in a previous work (Gen. Relativ. Gravit. {\bf 41}, see ref [11]) is achieved. The canonical form of the different algebraic types is obtained in terms of Bel-Robinson…
We determine the space of algebraic pseudo-Hermitian K\"ahler-Weyl curvature tensors and the space of para-Hermitian K\"ahler-Weyl curvature tensors in dimension 4 and show that every algebraic possibility is geometrically realizable. We…
