We study pseudo-Riemannian Einstein manifolds which are conformally equivalent with a metric product of two pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. Particularly interesting is the case where one of these manifolds is 1-dimensional and the case where…

In this paper we study warped product Einstein metrics over spaces with constant scalar curvature. We call such a manifold rigid if the universal cover of the base is Einstein or is isometric to a product of Einstein manifolds. When the…

The Gaussian curvature of a two-dimensional Riemannian manifold is uniquely determined by the choice of the metric. The formulas for computing the curvature in terms of components of the metric, in isothermal coordinates, involve the…

We consider a second-order selfadjoint elliptic operator with an anisotropic diffusion matrix having a jump across a smooth hypersurface. We prove the existence of a weight-function such that a Carleman estimate holds true. We moreover…

We provide some criteria to $p$-parabolicity of Riemannian submersions. In particular, if $N$ is $p$-parabolic and $\pi:M\to N$ is a Riemannian submersion with uniformly bounded volume of fibers, then $M$ is also $p$-parabolic. In the case…

We discuss conformal deformation and warped products on some open manifolds. We discuss how these can be applied to construct Riemannian metrics with specific scalar curvature functions.

We study Lagrangian immersions in the nearly K\"ahler $\mathbb{S}^6$ which are warped product manifolds of a $1$-dimensional base and a surface. Apart from the totally geodesic ones, they are either of constant sectional curvature…

Constrained Willmore surfaces are conformal immersions of Riemann surfaces that are critical points of the Willmore energy $W=\int H^2$ under compactly supported infinitesimal conformal variations. Examples include all constant mean…

We study the isoperimetric problem in product spaces equipped with the uniform distance. Our main result is a characterization of isoperimetric inequalities which, when satisfied on a space, are still valid for the product spaces, up a to a…

In this note we generalize our previous result, stating that if $(M_1,g_1)$ and $(M_2,g_2)$ are compact Riemannian manifolds, then any Einstein metric on the product $M:=M_1\times M_2$ of the form $g=e^{2f_1}g_1+e^{2f_2}g_2$, with $f_1\in…

We obtain a basic inequality involving the Laplacian of the warping function and the squared mean curvature of any warped product isometrically immersed in a Riemannian manifold without assuming any restriction on the Riemann curvature…

It is shown that the warped product spacetime P=M *_f H, where H is a complete Riemannian manifold, and the original spacetime M share necessarily the same causality properties, the only exceptions being the properties of causal continuity…

Let $\mathbb{R}_+=[0,\infty)$ and let $A\subseteq\mathbb{R}^n_+$. We have found the necessary and sufficient conditions under which a function $\Phi:A\to\mathbb{R}_+$ has an isotone subadditive continuation on $\mathbb{R}^n_+$. It allows us…
