For any integers $m\geqslant n\geqslant 3$, we construct a Ricci limit space $X_{m,n}$ such that for a fixed point, some tangent cones are $\mathbb{R}^m$ and some are $\mathbb{R}^n$. This is an improvement of Menguy's example. Moreover, we…

Given a closed Riemannian manifold $(N^{n+1},g)$, $n+1 \geq 3$ we prove the compactness of the space of singular, minimal hypersurfaces in $N$ whose volumes are uniformly bounded from above and the $p$-th Jacobi eigenvalue $\lambda_p$'s are…

We establish a lower bound for the principal $p-$frequency $\lambda_{1,p}(\Omega)$ on a bounded domain $\Omega$ in a non-compact Riemannian manifold of dimension $n.$ Under the assumption that the Ricci curvature satisfies…

Let $M$ be a $d$-dimensional closed Riemannian manifold, let $f\in\mathrm{Diff}^{1+\beta}(M)$, and denote by $m$ the Riemannian volume form of $M$. We prove that if $m\circ f^{-n}\xrightarrow[n\to\infty]{}\mu$ exponentially fast, then $\mu$…

We prove that any complete (and possibly non-compact) Riemannian manifold $M$ possesses infinitely many closed geodesics provided its free loop space has unbounded Betti numbers in degrees larger than the dimension of $M$, and there are no…

We give lower bounds on the maximal injectivity radius for a closed orientable hyperbolic 3-manifold M with first Betti number 2, under some additional topological hypotheses. A corollary of the main result is that if M has first Betti…

We describe the local structure of Riemannian manifolds with harmonic curvature which admit a maximum number, in a well-defined sense, of local warped-product decompositions, and at the same time their Ricci tensor has, at some point, only…

We construct a compact manifold with a closed $G_2$ structure not admitting any torsion-free $G_2$ structure, which is non-formal and has first Betti number $b_1=1$. We develop a method of resolution for orbifolds that arise as a quotient…

The goal of this article is to study the space of smooth Riemannian structures on compact manifolds with boundary that satisfies a critical point equation associated with a boundary value problem. We provide an integral formula which…

In this paper, we investigate complete Riemannian manifolds satisfying the lower weighted Ricci curvature bound $\mathrm{Ric}_{N} \geq K$ with $K>0$ for the negative effective dimension $N<0$. We analyze two $1$-dimensional examples of…

Let $(R,\mathfrak m)$ be a local (Noetherian) ring of dimension $d$ and $M$ a finite length $R$-module with free resolution $G_\bullet$. De Stefani, Huneke, and N\'{u}\~{n}ez-Betancourt explored two questions about the properties of…

We prove that a type II$_1$ factor $M$ can have at most one Cartan subalgebra $A$ satisfying a combination of rigidity and compact approximation properties. We use this result to show that within the class $\Cal H \Cal T$ of factors $M$…

In this paper, we investigate the rigidity of Q-curvature. Specifically, we consider a closed, oriented $n$-dimensional ($n\geq6$) Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ and prove the following results under the condition $\int_{M} \nabla R\cdot\nabla…

In this paper, we focus on a conformally flat Riemannian manifold $(M^n,g)$ of dimension $n$ isometrically immersed into the $(n+1)$-dimensional light-cone $\Lambda^{n+1}$ as a hypersurface. We compute the first and the second variational…

For an ideal $I$ of a Noetherian local ring $(R,\fm,k)$ we show that $\bt_1^R(I)-\bt_0^R(I)\geq -1$. It is demonstrated that some residual intersections of an ideal $I$ for which $\bt_1^R(I)-\bt_0^R(I)= -1\;\text{or}\;0$ are perfect. Some…

We study Riemannian metrics on compact, torsionless, non-geometric $3$-manifolds, i.e. whose interior does not support any of the eight model geometries. We prove a lower bound "\`a la Margulis" for the systole and a volume estimate for…

We study the moduli space of rank 0 semistable sheaves on some rational surfaces. We show the irreducibility and stable rationality of them under some conditions. We also compute several (virtual) Betti numbers of those moduli spaces by…

In the first part of the paper we answer (positively) a question raised by the first author which has to do with some sort of rigity of the tail of resolution of an ideal. Let $I$ be a homogeneous ideal in a polynomial ring over a field of…

We prove that, on any closed manifold of dimension at least two with non-trivial first Betti number, a $C^\infty$ generic Riemannian metric has infinitely many closed geodesics, and indeed closed geodesics of arbitrarily large length. We…

Let N be an irreducible, compact 3-manifold with empty or toroidal boundary which is not a closed graph manifold. Using recent work of Agol, Kahn-Markovic and Przytycki-Wise we will show that pi_1(N) admits a cofinal filtration with `fast'…
