In this note, we show that the solution to the Dirichlet problem for the minimal surface system in any codimension is unique in the space of distance-decreasing maps. This follows as a corollary of the following stability theorem: if a…

Let the circle act effectively in a Hamiltonian fashion on a compact symplectic manifold $(M, \omega)$. Assume that the fixed point set $M^{S^1}$ has exactly two components, $X$ and $Y$, and that $\dim(X) + \dim(Y) +2 = \dim(M)$. We first…

Let $M$ be a Riemannian manifold with dimension greater or equal to $3$ which admits a complete, finite-volume Riemannian metric $g_0$ locally isometric to a rank-1 symmetric space of non-compact type. The volume entropy rigidity theorem…

We prove a theorem that generalizes Schmidt's Subspace Theorem in the context of metric diophantine approximation. To do so we reformulate the Subspace theorem in the framework of homogeneous dynamics by introducing and studying a slope…

In this paper we extend to non-compact Riemannian manifolds with boundary the use of two important tools in the geometric analysis of compact spaces, namely, the weak maximum principle for subharmonic functions and the integration by parts.…

A classical theorem in the theory of minimal surfaces establishes a correspondence between minimal surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^n$ and null holomorphic curves in $\mathbb{C}^n$. A hyperbolic version of this correspondence is due to Bryant: null…

A vanishing theorem for uniformly RC $k$-positive Hermitian holomorphic vector bundles is established. It turns out that the holomorphic tangent bundle of a compact complex manifold equipped with a positive $k$-Ricci curvature K\"{a}hler…

We prove that the Gauss curvature and the curvature of the normal connection of any minimal surface in the four dimensional Euclidean space satisfy an inequality, which generates two classes of minimal surfaces: minimal surfaces of general…

We establish uniform diameter estimates and volume non-collapsing estimates for the Chern-Ricci flow on smooth Hermitian minimal models of general type, assuming the initial metric is K\"ahler in a neighborhood of the null locus of the…

We construct a family of hermitian potentials in 1D quantum mechanics that converges in the zero-range limit to a $\delta$ interaction with an energy-dependent coupling. It falls out of the standard four-parameter family of pointlike…

We reconstruct a Riemannian manifold and a Hermitian vector bundle with compatible connection from the hyperbolic Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator associated with the wave equation of the connection Laplacian. The boundary data is local and…

We prove two rigidity theorems for open (complete and noncompact) $n$-manifolds $M$ with nonnegative Ricci curvature and the infimum of volume growth order $<2$. The first theorem asserts that the Riemannian universal cover of $M$ has…

We show that the volume of a simple Riemannian metric on $D^n$ is locally monotone with respect to its boundary distance function. Namely if $g$ is a simple metric on $D^n$ and $g'$ is sufficiently close to $g$ and induces boundary…

We show that a necessary and sufficient condition for a smooth function on the tangent bundle of a manifold to be a Lagrangian density whose action can be minimized is, roughly speaking, that it be the sum of a constant, a nonnegative…

For a subRiemannian manifold and a given Riemannian extension of the metric, we define a canonical global connection. This connection coincides with both the Levi-Civita connection on Riemannian manifolds and the Tanaka-Webster connection…

We consider the class of compact Hermitian manifolds whose Chern connection is Ambrose-Singer, namely, it has parallel torsion and curvature. We prove structure theorems for such manifolds.

In this paper, we investigate the volume comparison theorem related to $\sigma_2$-curvature. In particular, we show that volume comparison theorem with respect to $\sigma_2$-curvature holds for metrics close to strictly stable positive…

We prove that if a family of metrics, $g_i$, on a compact Riemannian manifold, $M^n$, have a uniform lower Ricci curvature bound and converge to $g_\infty$ smoothly away from a singular set, $S$, with Hausdorff measure, $H^{n-1}(S) = 0$,…

We pursuit the research line proposed in \cite{YZ-Gflat} about the classification of Hermitian manifolds whose $s$-Gauduchon connection $\nabla^s =(1-\frac{s}{2})\nabla^c + \frac{s}{2}\nabla^b$ is flat, where $s \in \mathbb{R}$ and…

We propose a geometric framework where dispersion relations are viewed as parametric surfaces in energy-momentum space. Within this picture, the presence and type of critical points of the surface emerge as clear geometric signatures of…
