Associated with a symmetric Clifford system $\{P_0, P_1,\cdots, P_{m}\}$ on $\mathbb{R}^{2l}$, there is a canonical vector bundle $\eta$ over $S^{l-1}$. For $m=4$ and $8$, we construct explicitly its characteristic map, and determine…

In this paper, we study contact forms on the three- dimensional Heisenberg manifold with its standard CR structure. We discover that the $Q'$-curvature, introduced by Branson, Fontana and Morpurgo [BFM13] on the CR three-sphere and then…

We prove the existence of solution to the following $\mathbb{C}^3$-valued singular SPDE on the 2D torus $\mathbb{T}^2$: \begin{align} \label{CR} \partial_{\bar z} r = r \times \overline{r} + i \, \gamma \, {\mathscr W}, \tag{CR} \end{align}…

The Willmore Problem seeks the surface in $\mathbb S^3\subset\mathbb R^4$ of a given topological type minimizing the squared-mean-curvature energy $W = \int |\mathbf{H}_{\mathbb{R}^4}|^2 = \operatorname{area} + \int H_{\mathbb{S}^3}^2$. The…

We address Calder\'on's problem of stably determining the anisotropic complex admittivity $\sigma$ in a domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$, with $n\geq3$, representing a conducting medium, in terms of a Dirichlet-to-Neumann map locally…

Conformally St{\"a}ckel manifolds can be characterized as the class of n-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian manifolds (M, G) on which the Hamilton-Jacobi equation G($\nabla$u, $\nabla$u) = 0 for null geodesics and the Laplace equation --$\Delta$…

One way to generalize the boundary Yamabe problem posed by Escobar is to ask if a given metric on a compact manifold with boundary can be conformally deformed to have vanishing $\sigma_k$-curvature in the interior and constant…

We prove that every closed, universally embeddable CR three-manifold with nonnegative Yamabe constant and positive total $Q^\prime$-curvature is contact diffeomorphic to a quotient of the standard contact three-sphere. We also prove that…

We study the problem of conformal deformation of Riemannian structure to constant scalar curvature with zero mean curvature on the boundary. We prove compactness for the full set of solutions when the boundary is umbilic and the dimension…

In this paper, we study the CR Yamabe flow with zero CR Yamabe invariant. We use the CR Poincar\'e inequality and a Gagliardo-Nirenberg type interpolation inequality to show that this flow has long time solution and the solution converges…

In this paper we examine the Riemannian geometry of the group of contactomorphisms of a compact contact manifold. We compute the sectional curvature of $\mathcal{D}_\theta(M)$ in the sections containing the Reeb field and show that it is…

In this paper we prove that, given a compact four dimensional smooth Riemannian manifold (M,g) with smooth boundary there exists a metric conformal to g with constant T-curvature, zero Q-curvature and zero mean curvature under generic and…

We apply the Riemannian Penrose inequality and the Riemannian positive mass theorem to derive inequalities on the boundary of a class of compact Riemannian $3$-manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature. The boundary of such a manifold has…

We continue our previous work studying critical exponent semilinear elliptic (and subelliptic) problems which generalize the classical Yamabe problem. In [3] the focus was on metric-measure spaces with an `almost smooth' structure, with…

By studying the example of smooth structures on CP^2#3(-CP^2) we illustrate how surgery on a single embedded nullhomologous torus can be utilized to change the symplectic structure, the Seiberg-Witten invariant, and hence the smooth…

We consider the equation $- \e^2 \D u + u= u^p$ in $\Omega \subseteq \R^N$, where $\Omega$ is open, smooth and bounded, and we prove concentration of solutions along $k$-dimensional minimal submanifolds of $\partial \O$, for $N \geq 3$ and…

Let $(\Omega^{n+1},g)$ be an $(n + 1)$-dimensional smooth complete connected Riemannian manifold with compact boundary $\partial\Omega=\Sigma$ and $f$ a smooth function on $\Omega$ which satisfies the Obata type equation $\nabla^2 f -fg =0$…

In this paper, by applying a linear trace Li-Yau-Hamilton inequality for a positive (1,1)-form solution of the CR Hodge-Laplace heat equation and monotonicity of the heat equation deformation, we obtain an optimal gap theorem for a complete…

The Newman-Penrose-Perjes formalism is applied to smooth contact structures on riemannian 3-manifolds. In particular it is shown that a contact 3-manifold admits an adapted riemannian metric if and only if it admits a metric with a…
