This paper is devoted to the existence of contact forms of prescribed Webster scalar curvature on a $3-$dimensional CR compact manifold locally conformally CR equivalent to the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{3}$ of $\mathbb{C}^{2}$. Due to…

We prove a definable version of the Whitney embedding theorem for abstract-definable $\mathcal{C}^p$ manifolds with $1\leq p<\infty$, namely: every abstract-definable $\mathcal{C}^p$ manifold is abstract-definable $C^p$ embedded into $R^N$,…

We show the existence and uniqueness of bounded solutions to the degenerate complex Monge-Amp\`ere type equations on compact Hermitian manifolds. We also study the asymptotics of these solutions. As applications, we give partial answers to…

We prove a warped product splitting theorem for manifolds with Ricci curvature bounded from below in the spirit of [Croke-Kleiner, \emph{Duke Math.\;J}.\;(1992)], but instead of asking that one boundary component is compact and mean-convex,…

Motivated by problems related to quasi-local mass in general relativity, we study the static metric extension conjecture proposed by R. Bartnik \cite{Bartnik_energy}. We show that, for any metric on $\bar{B}_1$ that is close enough to the…

In this paper, we consider optimization problems over closed embedded submanifolds of $\mathbb{R}^n$, which are defined by the constraints $c(x) = 0$. We propose a class of constraint dissolving approaches for these Riemannian optimization…
