It is shown that many results, previously believed to be properties of the Lichnerowicz Ricci curvature, hold for the Ricci curvature of all Gauduchon connections. We prove the existence of $t$--Gauduchon Ricci-flat metrics on the…

In this short note we establish an integral geometric inequality in a smooth metric measure space of the nonnegative Bakry-\'Emery Ricci curvature. This result can be regarded as a mild generalization of the almost Schur theorem due to De…

The Horizontal Chord Theorem states that if a continuous curve connects points $A$ and $B$ in the plane, then for any integer $k$ there are points $C$ and $D$ on the curve such that $\overrightarrow{AB}=k \overrightarrow{CD}$. In this note,…

The Schur's theorem of antiholomorphic type is proved for arbitrary almost Hermitian manifolds, namely: If a connected almost Hermitian manifold of dimension greater or equal to 6 is of pointwise constant antiholomorphic sectional…

This article investigates when homotopies can be converted to monotone homotopies without increasing the lengths of curves. A monotone homotopy is one which consists of curves which are simple or constant, and in which curves are pairwise…

The Hardy-Littlewood-P?olya majorization theorem is extended to the framework of some spaces with a curved geometry (such as the global NPC spaces and the Wasserstein spaces). We also discuss the connection between our concept of…

For a harmonic map $u:M^3\to S^1$ on a closed, oriented $3$--manifold, we establish the identity $$2\pi \int_{\theta\in S^1}\chi(\Sigma_{\theta})\geq \frac{1}{2}\int_{\theta\in S^1}\int_{\Sigma_{\theta}}(|du|^{-2}|Hess(u)|^2+R_M)$$ relating…

We present a detailed study of the curvature and symplectic asphericity properties of symmetric products of surfaces. We show that these spaces can be used to answer nuanced questions arising in the study of closed Riemannian manifolds with…

We obtain a Chern-Osserman type equality of a complete properly immersed surface in Euclidean space, provided the L^2-norm of the second fundamental form is finite. Also, by using a monotonicity formula, we prove that if the L^2-norm of…

We prove that the sequence of cones of metric measure spaces converges if the sequence of base spaces converges in Gromov's box, concentration, and weak topologies. As an application, we show that the generalized Cauchy distribution with…

In this paper, we reformulate the Bakry-\'Emery curvature on a weighted graph in terms of the smallest eigenvalue of a rank one perturbation of the so-called curvature matrix using Schur complement. This new viewpoint allows us to show…

Distance functions of metric spaces with lower curvature bound, by definition, enjoy various metric inequalities; triangle comparison, quadruple comparison and the inequality of Lang-Schroeder-Sturm. The purpose of this paper is to study…

Motivated by the classical Euler elastic curves, David A. Singer posed in 1999 the problem of determining a plane curve whose curvature is given in terms of its position. We propound the same question in Lorentz-Minkowski plane, focusing on…

We relate in this note the classical Schwarzian derivative to the curvature of time-like curves in Lorentz surfaces of constant curvature.

Characterization of Schur-class functions (analytic and bounded by one in modulus on the open unit disk) in terms of their Taylor coefficients at the origin is due to I. Schur. We present a boundary analog of this result: necessary and…

We first generalize a curve selection lemma for Noetherian schemes and apply it to prove a version of Curve Selection Lemma in arc spaces, answering affirmatively a question by Reguera. Furthermore, thanks to a structure theorem of…

The rook monoid, also known as the symmetric inverse monoid, is the archetypal structure when it comes to extend the principle of symmetry. In this paper, we establish a Schur-Weyl duality between this monoid and an extension of the…

We introduce a reflected chord-arc profile for curves with orthogonal boundary condition and obtain a chord-arc estimate for embedded free boundary curve shortening flows in a convex planar domain. As a consequence, we are able to prove…

We present a second order accurate in time numerical scheme for curve shortening flow in the plane that is unconditionally monotone. It is a variant of threshold dynamics, a class of algorithms in the spirit of the level set method that…

We expose here a short proof of Cramer's theorem in R based on convex duality.
