We tackle the problem of optimizing over all possible positive definite radial kernels on Riemannian manifolds for classification. Kernel methods on Riemannian manifolds have recently become increasingly popular in computer vision. However,…

Interpolation and approximation of functionals with conditionally positive definite kernels is considered on sets of centers that are not determining for polynomials. It is shown that polynomial consistency is sufficient in order to define…

A Riemannian manifold is said to be almost positively curved if the sets of points for which all $2$-planes have positive sectional curvature is open and dense. We show that the Grassmannian of oriented $2$-planes in $\mathbb{R}^7$ admits a…

By introducing the concept of \emph{Kato control pairs} for a given Riemannian minimal heat kernel, we prove that on every Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ the Kato class $\mathcal{K}(M,g)$ has a subspace of the form $\mathsf{L}^q(M,d\varrho)$,…

We consider the Laplace-Beltrami operator $\Delta_g$ on a smooth, compact Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ and the determinantal point process $\mathcal{X}_{\lambda}$ on $M$ associated with the spectral projection of $-\Delta_g$ onto the…

Given an RCD$(K,N)$ space $({X},\mathsf{d},\mathfrak{m})$, one can use its heat kernel $\rho$ to map it into the $L^2$ space by a locally Lipschitz map $\Phi_t(x):=\rho(x,\cdot,t)$. The space $(X,\mathsf{d},\mathfrak{m})$ is said to be an…

Let $(M,h)$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold. Under a rather weak spectral positivity assumption we prove that $M$ is rationally connected and thus simply connected, projective with $h^{p,0}(M)=\{0\}$ for each $p>0$. Then, in the second part…

In the present paper, we show that given a compact K\"ahler manifold $(X,\omega)$ with a K\"ahler metric $\omega$, and a complex submanifold $V\subset X$ of positive dimension, if $V$ has a holomorphic retraction structure in $X$, then any…

The structure of nearly K\"ahler manifolds was studied by Gray in several papers. More recently, a relevant progress on the subject has been done by Nagy. Among other results, he proved that a strict and complete nearly K\"ahler manifold is…

The well known Weyl's asymptotic formula gives an approximation to the number $\mathcal{N}_{\omega}$ of eigenvalues (counted with multiplicities) on an interval $[0,\>\omega]$ of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on a compact Riemannian…

We study the approximation of eigenvalues for the Laplace-Beltrami operator on closed Riemannian manifolds in the class $\mathcal{M}$, characterized by bounded Ricci curvature, a lower bound on the injectivity radius, and an upper bound on…
