Given a smooth $s$-dimensional submanifold $S$ of $\mathbb{R}^{m+c}$ and a smooth distribution $D\supset TS$ of rank $m$ along $S$, we study the following geometric Cauchy problem: to find an $m$-dimensional rank-$s$ submanifold $M$ of…

These notes give an introduction to the equivalence problem of sub-Riemannian manifolds. We first introduce preliminaries in terms of connections, frame bundles and sub-Riemannian geometry. Then we arrive to the main aim of these notes,…
In this paper we prove a mass-capacity inequality and a volumetric Penrose inequality for conformally flat manifolds, in arbitrary dimensions. As a by-product of the proofs, P\'olya-Szeg\"o and Aleksandrov-Fenchel inequalities for…

We shall prove a multiplicity result for semilinear elliptic problems with a super-critical nonlinearity of the form, \begin{equation}\label{con-c} \left \{ \begin{array}{ll} -\Delta u =|u|^{p-2} u+\mu |u|^{q-2}u, & x \in \Omega\\ u=0, & x…
This paper starts by introducing results from geometric measure theory to prove symmetric decreasing rearrangement inequalities on $\mathbb{R}^n$, which give multiple proofs of the isoperimetric and P\'{o}lya-Szeg\H{o} inequalities. Then we…
We consider the large-N limit of \mathcal{N}=6 U(N) \times U(N) superconformal Chern-Simons (ABJM) theory with fixed level k, which is conjectured to be dual to M-theory on AdS4\times (S^7/Z_k) background. We point out that the so-called…
We prove that if a compact, simply connected Riemannian $G$-manifold $M$ has orbit space $M/G$ isometric to some other quotient $N/H$ with $N$ having zero topological entropy, then $M$ is rationally elliptic. This result, which generalizes…
For every connected graph $G$ and surface $S$, we consider the well-known string of inequalities $\delta_S(G) \leq \mu_S(G) \leq \nu_S(G)$, where $\mu$ and $\nu$ denote skewness and crossing number and $\delta$ is the Euler-formula lower…
Given a parallel calibration $\phi \in \Omega^p(M)$ on a Riemannian manifold $M$, I prove that the $\phi$--critical submanifolds with nonzero critical value are minimal submanifolds. I also show that the $\phi$--critical submanifolds are…
We present a complete classification of the vacuum geometries of all renormalizable superpotentials built from the fields of the electroweak sector of the MSSM. In addition to the Severi and affine Calabi-Yau varieties previously found, new…

In this paper we first prove some linear isoperimetric inequalities for submanifolds in the de Sitter-Schwarzschild and Reissner-Nordstrom manifolds. Moreover, the equality is attained. Next, we prove some monotonicity formulas for…
In this paper we give an extension of the classical Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequalities: we show that for $1<p,q<\infty$, $0<r<\infty$ with $p+q\geq r$, $\delta\in[0,1]\cap\left[\frac{r-q}{r},\frac{p}{r}\right]$ with $\frac{\delta…

This article has two parts. In the first part we introduce two positivity conditions for the modified $\chi_y$-genus on almost-complex manifolds and show that each of them implies a family of optimal Chern number inequalities. It turns out…
