Let $(\Sigma, g)$ be a closed, oriented, negatively curved surface, and fix pairwise disjoint simple closed geodesics $\gamma_{\star,1}, \dots \gamma_{\star, r}$. We give an asymptotic growth as $L \to +\infty$ of the number of primitive…
Let $(M,g)$ be a surface with Riemannian metric and curved conic singularities. More precisely, a neighbourhood of a singularity is isometric to $(0,1)\times S^1$ with metric $g_{\text{conic}}=dr^2+f(r)^2d\theta^2, r\in(0,1)$. We study the…
Length spectral rigidity is the question of under what circumstances the geometry of a surface can be determined, up to isotopy, by knowing only the lengths of its closed geodesics. It is known that this can be done for negatively curved…
In the present paper, we show that on a compact Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ of dimension $d\leqslant 4$ whose metric has negative curvature, the renormalized partition function $Z_g(\lambda)$ of a massive Gaussian Free Field determines the…
In this paper we consider two inverse problems on a closed connected Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$. The first one is a direct analog of the Gel'fand inverse boundary spectral problem. To formulate it, assume that $M$ is divided by a…
This paper gives an example of a non-arithmetic surface with marked length variety rigidity.
We prove that the image of an isometric embedding into ${\mathbb R}^3$ of a two dimensionnal complete Riemannian manifold $(\Sigma, g)$ without boundary is a convex surface provided both the embedding and the metric $g$ enjoy a…
We prove that every closed orientable surface S of negative Euler characteristic admits a pair of finite-degree covers which are length isospectral over S but generically not simple length isospectral over S. To do this, we first…
We establish a global rigidity theorem for Riemannian metrics without conjugate points on three-manifolds of the form $M = \Sigma \times S^1$, where $\Sigma$ is a compact orientable surface of genus at least 2. The main result states that…
The marked length spectrum (MLS) of a closed negatively curved manifold $(M, g)$ is known to determine the metric $g$ under various circumstances. We show that in these cases, (approximate) values of the MLS on a sufficiently large finite…
The aim of this paper is to prove two results concerning the rigidity of complete, immersed, orientable, stable minimal hypersurfaces: we show that they are hyperplane in $\mathbb{R}^4$, while they do not exist in positively curved closed…
Let $M$ be a $2m$-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold. We show that the spectrum of the Hodge Laplacian acting on $m$-forms does not determine whether the manifold has boundary, nor does it determine the lengths of the closed geodesics.…
Let (M,g) be a four or six dimensional compact Riemannian manifold which is locally conformally flat and assume that its boundary is totally umbilical. In this note, we prove that if the Euler characteristic of M is equal to 1 and if its…
Let $M$ be a closed surface and let $\{g_s \ | \ s \in (-\epsilon, \epsilon)\}$ be a smooth one-parameter family of Riemannian metrics on $M$. Also let $\{\kappa_s : M \rightarrow \mathbb{R} \ | \ s \in (-\epsilon, \epsilon)\}$ be a smooth…
We construct a parabolic entire minimal graph $S$ over a finite topology complete Riemannian surface $\Sigma$ of curvature $-1$ and infinite area (thus of non-parabolic conformal type). The vertical projection of this graph yields a…
We give a new characterisation of the unparametrised geodesics, or distinguished curves, for affine, pseudo-Riemannian, conformal, and projective geometry. This is a type of moving incidence relation. The characterisation is used to provide…
We construct an example of a Riemannian metric on the 2-torus such that its universal cover does not admit global Riemann normal coordinates.
We consider biconservative surfaces $\left(M^2,g\right)$ in a space form $N^3(c)$, with mean curvature function $f$ satisfying $f>0$ and $\nabla f\neq 0$ at any point, and determine a certain Riemannian metric $g_r$ on $M$ such that…
We show that if $M$ is a closed, connected, oriented surface, and two Anosov magnetic systems on $M$ are conjugate by a volume-preserving conjugacy isotopic to the identity, with their magnetic forms in the same cohomology class, then the…
Given a 2-dimensional surface M and a constant C we construct a Riemannian metric g, so that diameter diam(M,g)=1 and every 1-cycle dividing M into two regions of equal area has length >C. It follows that there exists no universal…
