We lay out the foundations of the theory of second-order conformal superintegrable systems. Such systems are essentially Laplace equations on a manifold with an added potential: $(\Delta_n+V({\bf x}))\Psi=0$. Distinct families of…
The main objective of this paper is to analyze the $p$-local homotopy type of the complex projective Stiefel manifolds, and other analogous quotients of Stiefel manifolds. We take the cue from a result of Yamaguchi about the $p$-regularity…
Let $ \mathbb{R}^{n} $ denote Euclidean $ n $ space and given $k$ a positive integer let $ \Lambda_k \subset \mathbb{R}^{n} $, $ 1 \leq k < n - 1, n \geq 3, $ be a $k$-dimensional plane with $ 0 \in \Lambda_k.$ If $n-k < p <\infty$, we…
We determine the corrections to the Schwarzschild geometry arising from including the Goroff- Sagnotti counterterm in the gravitational dynamics. We find that static, asymptotically flat, and spherically symmetric geometries are completely…
We define a generalization of convex functions, which we call $\delta$-convex functions, and show they must satisfy interior H\"older and $W^{1,p}$ estimates. As an application, we consider solutions of a certain class of fully nonlinear…
Through the study of some elliptic and parabolic fully nonlinear PDEs, we establish conformal versions of quermassintegral inequality, the Sobolev inequality and the Moser-Trudinger inequality for the geometric quantities associated to the…

We extend to the case of a system involving p-Laplacians, the monotonicity and symmetry results of Damascelli and Pacella obtained in the case of a scalar p-Laplace equation with $1<p<2$. For this purpose, we use the moving hyperplanes…
In this paper, we investigate the prescribed scalar curvature problem on a non-compact Riemannian manifold $(M, \langle \, , \, \rangle)$, namely the existence of a conformal deformation of the metric $\langle \, , \, \rangle$ realizing a…
In this paper, by using monotonicity formulas for vector bundle-valued $p$-forms satisfying the conservation law, we first obtain general $L^2$ global rigidity theorems for locally conformally flat (LCF) manifolds with constant scalar…
We show that compact, $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds with $\frac{n+2}{2}$-nonnegative curvature operators of the second kind are either rational homology spheres or flat. More generally, we obtain vanishing of the $p$-th Betti number…
The Bochner technique is a classical tool in global differential geometry for proving vanishing and rigidity results by exploiting curvature conditions. Building on recent extensions of this method to complete non-compact settings by…
There are a number of publications on relativistic objects dealing either with black holes or naked singularities in the center. Here we show that there exist static spherically symmetric solutions of Einstein equations with a strongly…
In this paper we study spaces of Riemannian metrics with lower bounds on intermediate curvatures. We show that the spaces of metrics of positive p-curvature and k-positive Ricci curvature on a given high-dimensional Spin-manifold have many…
Consider an asymptotically flat Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ of dimension $n \geq 3$ with nonempty compact boundary. We recall the harmonic conformal class $[g]_h$ of the metric, which consists of all conformal rescalings given by a harmonic…
In this article, under mild constraints on the sectional curvature, we exploit a divergence formula for symmetric endomorphisms to deduce a general Poincar\'e type inequality. We apply such inequality to higher-order mean curvature of…
We consider the Cauchy problem with smooth and compactly supported initial data for the wave equation in a general class of spherically symmetric geometries which are globally smooth and asymptotically flat. Under certain mild conditions on…
In this paper, positive solutions to the Laplace equation with 1-dimensional circular singularities are investigated. First, we establish $L^p$ integrability estimates for such solutions $u$ near the singularities, in comparison with…
This article begins with a brief introduction to numerical relativity aimed at readers who have a background in applied mathematics but not necessarily in general relativity. I then introduce and summarise my work on the problem of treating…
This thesis is devoted to the study of Lie bialgebra and Hopf algebra structures related to certain versions of non-commutative geometry constructed on infinite-dimensional Lie algebras that arise in the context of asymptotic symmetries of…
