Alexandrov's theorem asserts that spheres are the only closed embedded constant mean curvature hypersurfaces in space forms. In this paper, we consider Alexandrov's theorem in warped product manifolds and prove a rigidity result in the…

We show that the space of metrics of positive scalar curvature on any 3-manifold is either empty or contractible. Second, we show that the diffeomorphism group of every 3-dimensional spherical space form deformation retracts to its isometry…

In this paper, we are going to show some rigidity results for complete open Riemannian manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature. Without using the famous Cheeger-Gromoll splitting theorem we give a new proof to a rigidity result for…

In this paper, we consider soliton solutions of the mean curvature flow in the unit sphere $S^{2n+1}$ moving along the integral curves of the Hopf unit vector field. While such solitons must necessarily be minimal if compact, we produce a…

A classic result by Gromov and Lawson states that a Riemannian metric of non--negative scalar curvature on the Torus must be flat. The analogous rigidity result for the standard sphere was shown by Llarull. Later Goette and Semmelmann…

We extend the Margulis Lemma for manifolds with lower Ricci curvature bounds to the $\text{RCD}(K,N)$ setting. As one of our main tools, we obtain improved regularity estimates for Regular Langrangian flows on these spaces.

In this paper we present a rigidity theorem for locally isometric hypersurfaces with a curvature restriction in de Sitter space. This is an analogue to the case for Riemannian space forms given by Guan and Shen in [5].

We prove that a locally compact space with an upper curvature bound is a topological manifold if and only if all of its spaces of directions are homotopy equivalent and not contractible. We discuss applications to homology manifolds, limits…
