The difference tensor R.C-C.R of a semi-Riemannian manifold (M,g), dim M > 3, formed by its Riemannian-Christoffel curvature tensor R and the Weyl conformal curvature tensor C, under some assumptions, can be expressed as a linear…

Using techniques of optimal transportation and gradient flows in metric spaces, we extend the notion of Riemannian Curvature Dimension condition $RCD(K,\infty)$ introduced (in case the reference measure is finite) by Giuseppe Savare', the…

We review the construction of the tangent space to a sub-Finsler manifold in the measured Gromov-Hausdorff sense. Under suitable assumptions on the measure, the metric measure tangent is described by the nilpotent approximation, equipped…

This paper aims to study the $(m,\rho)$-quasi Einstein manifold. This article shows that a complete and connected Riemannian manifold under certain conditions becomes compact. Also, we have determined an upper bound of the diameter for such…

We consider manifolds with almost non-negative Ricci curvature and strictly positive integral lower bounds on the sum of the lowest $k$ eigenvalues of the Ricci tensor. If $(M^n,g)$ is a Riemannian manifold satisfying such curvature bounds…

A semi-Riemannian manifold is said to satisfy $R\ge K$ (or $R\le K$) if spacelike sectional curvatures are $\ge K$ and timelike ones are $\le K$ (or the reverse). Such spaces are abundant, as warped product constructions show; they include,…

We consider, for $n\ge 3$, $K$-quasiregular $\operatorname{vol}_N^\times$-curves $M\to N$ of small distortion $K\ge 1$ from oriented Riemannian $n$-manifolds into Riemannian product manifolds $N=N_1\times \cdots \times N_k$, where each…

Let $(\acute{N},g,\nabla )$\ be a $2n$-dimensional quasi-statistical manifold that admits a pseudo-Riemannian metric $g$ (or $h)$ and a linear connection $\nabla $ with torsion. This paper aims to study an almost Hermitian structure $(g,L)$…

In this paper, we study a general almost Schur Lemma on pseudo-Hermitian (2n+1)-manifolds $(M,J,\theta)$ for $n\geq2$. When the equality of almost Schur inequality holds, we derive the contact form $\theta$ is pseudo-Einstein and the…

We present new anomalies in two-dimensional ${\mathcal N} =(2, 2)$ superconformal theories. They obstruct the shortening conditions of chiral and twisted chiral multiplets at coincident points. This implies that marginal couplings cannot be…

We extend the range of $N$ to negative values in the $(K,N)$-convexity (in the sense of Erbar--Kuwada--Sturm), the weighted Ricci curvature $Ric_N$ and the curvature-dimension condition $CD(K,N)$. We generalize a number of results in the…

Let $\mathcal{C}(\mathcal{R},n,p,\Lambda,D,V_0)$ be the class of compact $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds with finite diameter $\leq D$, non-collapsing volume $\geq V_0$ and $L^p$-bounded $\mathcal{R}$-curvature condition…

Let $({M},\textsf{d},\textsf{m})$ be a metric measure space which satisfies the Lott-Sturm-Villani curvature-dimension condition $\textsf{CD}(K,n)$ for some $K\geq 0$ and $n\geq 2$, and a lower $n-$density assumption at some point of $M$.…

We prove that a Ricci curvature based method of triangulation of compact Riemannian manifolds, due to Grove and Petersen, extends to the context of weighted Riemannian manifolds and more general metric measure spaces. In both cases the role…

Ketterer and Rajala showed an example of metric measure space, satisfying the measure contraction property $MCP(0,3)$, that has different topological dimensions at different regions of the space. In this article I propose a refinement of…

The difference tensor C.R - R.C of Einstein manifolds, some quasi-Einstein manifolds and Roter type manifolds, of dimension n > 3, satisfy the following curvature condition: (A) C.R - R.C = Q(S,C) - (k /(n-1)) Q(g,C). We investigate…

In this short note, we give a sufficient condition for almost smooth compact metric measure spaces to satisfy the Bakry-\'Emery condition $BE (K, N)$. The sufficient condition is satisfied for the glued space of any two (not necessary same…

For metric measure spaces verifying the reduced curvature-dimension condition $CD^*(K,N)$ we prove a series of sharp functional inequalities under the additional assumption of essentially non-branching. Examples of spaces entering this…

We prove that for non-branching metric measure spaces the local curvature condition CDloc(K,N) implies the global version of MCP(K,N). The curvature condition CD(K,N) introduced by the second author and also studied by Lott & Villani is the…

We prove that, on any sub-Riemannian manifold endowed with a positive smooth measure, the Bakry-\'Emery inequality for the corresponding sub-Laplacian implies the existence of enough Killing vector fields on the tangent cone to force the…
