Two metrics on a manifold are geodesically equivalent if sets of their unparameterized geodesics coincide. In this paper we show that if two left $G$-invariant metrics of arbitrary signature on homogenous space $G/H$ are geodesically…

In these notes we survey basic concepts of affine geometry and their interaction with Riemannian geometry. We give a characterization of affine manifolds which has as counterpart those pseudo-Riemannian manifolds whose Levi-Civita…

The class of statistical manifolds with divisible cubic forms arises from affine differential geometry. We examine the geodesic connectedness of affine connections on this class of statistical manifolds. In information geometry, the…

We study the geometry of the space of densities $\VolM$, which is the quotient space $\Diff(M)/\Diff_\mu(M)$ of the diffeomorphism group of a compact manifold $M$ by the subgroup of volume-preserving diffemorphisms, endowed with a…

Let $F$ be a totally real number field, $\wp$ a place of $F$ above $p$. Let $\rho$ be a $2$-dimensional $p$-adic representation of $\mathrm{Gal}(\bar{F}/F)$ which appears in the \'etale cohomology of quaternion Shimura curves (thus $\rho$…

In physics, two systems that radically differ at short scales can exhibit strikingly similar macroscopic behaviour: they are part of the same long-distance universality class. Here we apply this viewpoint to geometry and initiate a program…

In this paper we study the geometry of simply connected two-step nilpotent Lie groups of dimension five. We give the Levi-Civita connection, curvature tensor, sectional and scalar curvatures of these spaces and show that they have constant…

Let $V$ be a separable Hilbert space, possibly infinite dimensional. Let $\St(p,V)$ be the Stiefel manifold of orthonormal frames of $p$ vectors in $V$, and let $\Gr(p,V)$ be the Grassmann manifold of $p$ dimensional subspaces of $V$. We…

The Heisenberg groups are examples of sub-Riemannian manifolds homeomorphic, but not diffeomorphic to the Euclidean space. Their metric is derived from curves which are only allowed to move in so-called horizontal directions. We report on…

We review some basic concepts related to convex real projective structures from the differential geometry point of view. We start by recalling a Riemannian metric which originates in the study of affine spheres using the Blaschke connection…

In this paper we identify all simply connected 3-dimensional real Lie groups which admit Randers or Matsumoto metrics of Berwald type with a certain underlying left invariant Riemannian metric. Then we give their flag curvatures formulas…

We generalize the higher Riemann-Hilbert correspondence in the presence of scalar curvature for a (possibly non-compact) smooth manifold $M$. We show that the dg-category of curved $\infty$-local systems, the dg-category of graded vector…

We continue to study left-invariant pseudo-Riemannian metrics on Lie groups being in the null cone of the $O(p,q)$-action using the moving bracket approach. In particular, the Lie algebra being in the null cone implies that the…

We study the distortion of intermediate dimension under supercritical Sobolev mappings and also under quasiconformal or quasisymmetric homeomorphisms. In particular, we extend to the setting of intermediate dimensions both the…

Geometric quantiles are location parameters which extend classical univariate quantiles to normed spaces (possibly infinite-dimensional) and which include the geometric median as a special case. The infinite-dimensional setting is highly…

We show that, on a complete and possibly non-compact Riemannian manifold of dimension at least 2 without close conjugate points at infinity, the existence of a closed geodesic with local homology in maximal degree and maximal index growth…

Let $ G $ be a connected Lie group with real Lie algebra $ \mathfrak{g}$. Suppose $G$ is also a complex manifold. We obtain explicit holomorphic sectional and bisectional curvature formulas of left-invariant strongly pseudoconvex complex…

Suppose that S is a left amenable semitopological semigroup. We prove that if ${T_{t}: t \in S}$ is a uniformly k-Lipschitzian semigroup on a bounded closed and convex subset C of a Hilbert space and $k<\sqrt{2}$, then the set of fixed…

In this Note, we prove that every m-th root Finsler metric with isotropic Landsberg curvature reduces to a Landsberg metric. Then, we show that every m-th root metric with almost vanishing H-curvature has vanishing H-curvature.

An expansion is developed for the Weil-Petersson Riemann curvature tensor in the thin region of the Teichm\"{u}ller and moduli spaces. The tensor is evaluated on the gradients of geodesic-lengths for disjoint geodesics. A precise lower…
