For a given smooth compact manifold $M$, we introduce an open class $\mathcal G(M)$ of Riemannian metrics, which we call \emph{metrics of the gradient type}. For such metrics $g$, the geodesic flow $v^g$ on the spherical tangent bundle $SM…
On the space of isometric embeddings $f_g$ of metrics $g$ on a manifold $M^n$ into the standard $(\mb{S}^{\tn=\tn(n)},\tg)$, we consider the total exterior scalar curvature $\Theta_{f_g}(M)$, and squared $L^2$ norm of the mean curvature…
We construct a parabolic entire minimal graph $S$ over a finite topology complete Riemannian surface $\Sigma$ of curvature $-1$ and infinite area (thus of non-parabolic conformal type). The vertical projection of this graph yields a…
We define a $\mathbb{Q}$-valued deformation invariant of certain complete Riemann-Finsler manifolds, in particular of complete Riemannian manifolds with non positive sectional curvature. It is proved that every rational number is the value…
Two Riemannian manifolds are said to be isospectral if the associated Laplace-Belttrami operators have the same eigenvalue spectrum. If the manifolds have boundary, one specifies DIrichlet or Neumann isospectrality depending on the boundary…
In the present paper, we show that on a compact Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ of dimension $d\leqslant 4$ whose metric has negative curvature, the renormalized partition function $Z_g(\lambda)$ of a massive Gaussian Free Field determines the…
Let $M$ be a graph manifold such that each piece of its JSJ decomposition has the $\Bbb H^2 \times \Bbb R$ geometry. Assume that the pieces are glued by isometries. Then, there exists a complete Riemannian metric on $\Bbb R \times M$ which…
We study a flow of $G_2$ structures which induce the same Riemannian metric which is the negative gradient flow of an energy functional. We prove Shi-type estimates for the torsion tensor along the flow. We show that at a finite-time…
We construct continuous families of Riemannian metrics on certain simply connected manifolds with the property that the resulting Riemannian manifolds are pairwise isospectral for the Laplace operator acting on functions. These are the…
We give a short proof of the following fact. Let $\Sigma$ be a connected, finitely connected, noncompact manifold without boundary. If $g$ is a complete Riemannian metric on $\Sigma$ whose Gaussian curvature $K$ is nonnegative at infinity,…
For a negatively curved manifold $M$ and a continuous map $\psi:\Sigma\to M$ from a closed surface $\Sigma$, we study complex submanifolds of Teichm\"uller space $\mathcal{S}\subset\mathcal{T}(\Sigma)$ such that the harmonic maps…
If $(M,g)$ is a compact Riemannian surface then the integrals of $L^2(M)$-normalized eigenfunctions $e_j$ over geodesic segments of fixed length are uniformly bounded. Also, if $(M,g)$ has negative curvature and $\gamma(t)$ is a geodesic…
We consider an $\mathcal{MP}$-system, that is, a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary, endowed with a magnetic field and a potential. On simple $\mathcal{MP}$-systems, we study the $\mathcal{MP}$-ray transform in order to obtain new…
If $\mathcal{G}$ is the group (under composition) of diffeomorphisms $f : {\bar{D}}(0;1) \rightarrow {\bar{D}}(0;1)$ of the closed unit disc ${\bar{D}}(0;1)$ which are the identity map $id : {\bar{D}}(0;1) \rightarrow {\bar{D}}(0;1)$ on the…
A family of mappings is called uniformly light if the image of the continuum under these mappings cannot be contracted to a point under the sequence of mappings of the family. In this paper, we are interested in the problem of the uniform…
Let $M$ be a smooth manifold, $F$ be a smooth vector field on $M$, and $F_t$ be the local flow of $F$. Denote by $Sh(F)$ the space of smooth maps $h:M\to M$ of the following form: $h(x) = F_{f(x)}(x)$, where $f:M\to\mathbb{R}$ runs over all…
Let M be a smooth connected compact surface, P be either the real line R^1 or the circle S^1, and f:M-->P be a smooth mapping. In a previous series of papers for the case when f is a Morse map the author calculated the homotopy types of…
We introduce the matching functions technique in the setting of Anosov flows. Then we observe that simple periodic cycle functionals (also known as temporal distance functions) provide a source of matching functions for conjugate Anosov…
In this work we prove the fact that, for a short time, it is possible to construct a smooth parametrized family of isometric embeddings of an arbitrary smooth parametrized family of Riemannian metrics on a smooth closed manifold into an…
