We study the space of Riemannian metrics with positive scalar curvature on a compact manifold with boundary. These metrics extend a fixed boundary metric and take a product structure on a collar neighbourhood of the boundary. We show that…

A Riemannian manifold is called geometrically formal if the wedge product of harmonic forms is again harmonic, which implies in the compact case that the manifold is topologically formal in the sense of rational homotopy theory. A manifold…

Let $H^p(L^2(M))$ be the space of all $L^2$-harmonic $p$-forms $(2\leq p\leq n-2)$ on complete submanifolds $M$ with flat normal bundle in spheres. In this paper, we first show that $H^p(L^2(M))$ is trivial if the total curvature of $M$ is…

We show that tensor products of $k$ gradients of harmonic functions, with $k$ at least three, are dense in $C(\overline{\Omega})$, for any bounded domain $\Omega$ in dimension 3 or higher. The bulk of the argument consists in showing that…

We prove that given any smooth metric $\gamma$ and smooth positive function $H$ on $S^{2}$, there is a constant $\lambda > 0$, depending on $(\gamma, H)$, and an asymptotically flat solution $(M, g, u)$ of the static vacuum Einstein…

We show that if a compact connected $n$-dimensional manifold $M$ has a conformal class containing two non-homothetic metrics $g$ and $\tilde g=e^{2\varphi}g$ with non-generic holonomy, then after passing to a finite covering, either $n=4$…
