We introduce the class of almost symmetric submanifolds of Euclidean space, a close relative of symmetric submanifolds and (contact) sub-Riemannian symmetric spaces. More specifically, we prove that every full irreducible almost symmetric…

We show that an asymptotically flat Riemannian three-manifold with non-negative scalar curvature is isometric to flat $\mathbb{R}^3$ if it admits an unbounded area-minimizing surface. This answers a question of R. Schoen.

An old open question in non-K\"ahler geometry predicts that any compact Hermitian manifold with constant holomorphic sectional curvature must be K\"ahler or Chern flat. The conjecture is known to be true in dimension $2$ due to the work by…
