We consider the relationship of the geometry of compact Riemannian manifolds with boundary to the first nonzero eigenvalue sigma_1 of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map (Steklov eigenvalue). For surfaces Sigma with genus gamma and k boundary…

All spherically symmetric Riemannian metrics of constant scalar curvature in any dimension can be written down in a simple form using areal coordinates. All spherical metrics are conformally flat, so we search for the conformally flat…

Let $(M,g)$ be an $n-$dimensional compact Riemannian manifold. Let $h$ be a smooth function on $M$ and assume that it has a critical point $\xi\in M$ such that $h(\xi)=0$ and which satisfies a suitable flatness assumption. We are interested…

Let $(M,\textit{g},\sigma)$ be an $m$-dimensional closed spin manifold, with a fixed Riemannian metric $\textit{g}$ and a fixed spin structure $\sigma$; let $\mathbb{S}(M)$ be the spinor bundle over $M$. The spinorial Yamabe-type problems…

In 1977, Gauduchon proved that on every compact hermitian manifold $(X, \omega)$ there exists a conformally equivalent hermitian metric $\omega_{\mathrm{G}}$ which satisfies $\mathrm{dd}^c \omega_{\mathrm{G}}^{n-1} = 0$. In this note, we…
