We show that a compact Riemannian $3$-manifold $M$ with strictly convex simply connected boundary and sectional curvature $K\leq a\leq 0$ is isometric to a convex domain in a complete simply connected space of constant curvature $a$,…

Let M be a G2-manifold. We consider an almost CR-structure on the sphere bundle of unit tangent vectors on M, called the CR twistor space. This CR-structure is integrable if and only if M is a holonomy G2 manifold. We interpret G2-instanton…

In this paper, we investigate analytic and geometric properties of obstruction flatness of strongly pseudoconvex CR hypersurfaces of dimension $2n-1$. Our first two results concern local aspects. Theorem 3.2 asserts that any strongly…

In this article the notion of ultradifferentiable CR manifold is introduced and an ultradifferentiable regularity result for finitely nondegenerate CR mappings is proven. Here ultradifferentiable means with respect to Denjoy-Carleman…

We classify pseudo parallel proper CR-submanifolds in a non-flat complex space form with CR-dimension greater than one. With this result, the non-existence of recurrent as well as semi parallel proper CR-submanifolds in a non-flat complex…

We characterize convex cocompact subgroups of mapping class groups that arise as subgroups of specially embedded right-angled Artin groups. That is, if the right-angled Artin group G in Mod(S) satisfies certain conditions that imply G is…

Based on uniform CR Sobolev inequality and Moser iteration, this paper investigates the convergence of closed pseudo-Hermitian manifolds. In terms of the subelliptic inequality, the set of closed normalized pseudo-Einstein manifolds with…

Using recent work on high dimensional Lutz twists and families of Weinstein structures we show that any almost contact structure on a 5-manifold is homotopic to a contact structure.

We show that if a simply connected manifold is almost quarter pinched then it is diffeomorphic to a CROSS (a compact rank one symmetric space) or a sphere.

We study the almost Kaehler geometry of adjoint orbits of non-compact real semisimple Lie groups endowed with the Kirillov-Kostant-Souriau symplectic form and a canonically defined almost complex structure. We give explicit formulas for the…

We provide a proof that the classes of finitely generated Kleinian groups and of three-manifold groups are quasi-isometrically rigid.

In this article, we study almost cosymplectic manifolds admitting quasi-Einstein structures $(g, V, m, \lambda)$. First we prove that an almost cosymplectic $(\kappa,\mu)$-manifold is locally isomorphic to a Lie group if $(g, V, m,…

We propose a global invariant $\sigma_c$ for contact manifolds which admit a strictly pseudoconvex CR structure, analogous to the Yamabe invariant $\sigma$. We prove that this invariant is non-decreasing under handle attaching and under…

We give a condition for an almost constant-type manifold to be a constant-type manifold, and holomorphic and $R$-invariant submanifolds of almost Hermitian manifolds are studied. Generalizations of some results in [5] are given.

We study low-dimensional problems in topology and geometry via a study of contact and Cauchy-Riemann ($CR$) structures. A contact structure is called spherical if it admits a compatible spherical $CR$ structure. We will talk about spherical…

We reduce CR-structures on smooth elliptic and hyperbolic manifolds of CR-codimension 2 to parallelisms thus solving the problem of global equivalence for such manifolds. The parallelism that we construct is defined on a sequence of two…

For compact K\"ahlerian manifolds, the holomorphic pseudosymmetry reduces to the local symmetry if additionally the scalar curvature is constant and the structure function is non-negative. Similarly, the holomorphic Ricci-pseudosymmetry…

This paper addresses two questions related to mapping problems. In the first part of the paper, we discuss some recent results regarding the $2$-jet determination for biholomorphisms between smooth (weakly) pseudoconvex hypersurfaces; in…

An almost abelian Lie group is a solvable Lie group with a codimension-one normal abelian subgroup. We characterize almost Hermitian structures on almost abelian Lie groups where the almost complex structure is harmonic with respect to the…

On an almost complex manifold, a quasi-K\"{a}hler metric, with canonical connection in the c-projective class of a given minimal complex connection, is equivalent to a non-degenerate solution of the c-projectively invariant metrizability…
