Let $M$ be a compact complex manifold admitting a K\"ahler structure. A conformally K\"ahler, Einstein-Maxwell metric (cKEM metric for short) is a Hermitian metric $\tilde{g}$ on $M$ with constant scalar curvature such that there is a…

We first present the natural definitions of the horizontal differential, the divergence (as an adjoint operator), and a $p$-harmonic form on a Finsler manifold. Next, we prove a Hodge-type theorem for a Finsler manifold in the sense that a…

We study the Lie algebra of infinitesimal isometries on compact Sasakian and K--contact manifolds. On a Sasakian manifold which is not a space form or 3--Sasakian, every Killing vector field is an infinitesimal automorphism of the Sasakian…

We classify homogeneous reversible Finsler metrics with positive Flag curvature. We show that if G/H admits a G invariant reversible Finsler metric with positive Flag curvature, then up to a few low dimensional spaces, it also admits a G…

Let $M$ be a non-compact connected manifold with a cocompact and properly discontinuous action of a discrete group $G$. We establish a Poincar\'{e}-Hopf theorem for a bounded vector field on $M$ satisfying a mild condition on zeros. As an…

We prove that a compact lcK manifold with holomorphic Lee vector field is Vaisman provided that either the Lee field has constant norm or the metric is Gauduchon (i.e., the Lee field is divergence-free). We also give examples of compact lcK…

This paper has been withdrawn by the author due to a crucial sign error in equation 1. An isometry $\rho$ of a connected Finsler space $(M, F)$ is called bounded if the function $d(x, \rho(x))$ is bounded on $M$. It is called a…
