We exhibit examples of compact three-dimensional CR manifolds of positive Webster class, {\em Rossi spheres}, for which the pseudo-hermitian mass as defined in \cite{CMY17} is negative, and for which the infimum of the CR-Sobolev quotient…
Let $M^n$ be a complete, open Riemannian manifold with $\Ric \geq 0$. In 1994, Grigori Perelman showed that there exists a constant $\delta_{n}>0$, depending only on the dimension of the manifold, such that if the volume growth satisfies…
In this paper, the author studies quaternionic Monge-Amp\`ere equations and obtains the existence and uniqueness of the solutions to the Dirichlet problem for such equations without any restriction on domains. Our paper not only answers to…
We study the normalized volume of toric singularities. As it turns out, there is a close relation to the notion of (non-symmetric) Mahler volume from convex geometry. This observation allows us to use standard tools from convex geometry,…

A Morse-Bott volume form on a manifold is a top-degree form which vanishes along a non-degenerate critical submanifold. We prove that two such forms are diffeomorphic (by a diffeomorphism fixed on the submanifold) provided that their…
We prove that any complete Riemannian manifold with negative part of the Ricci curvature in a suitable Dynkin class is bi-Lipschitz equivalent to a finite-dimensional $\mathrm{RCD}$ space, by building upon the transformation rule of the…
In this paper, we prove a $C^{1,1}$ estimate for solutions of complex Monge-Amp\`{e}re equations on compact almost Hermitian manifolds. Using this $C^{1,1}$ estimate, we show existence of $C^{1,1}$ solutions to the degenerate…
We prove that on any compact manifold $M^n$ with boundary, there exist a conformal class $C$ such that for any riemannian metric $g\in C$, $\lambda_1(M^n,g)Vol(M^n,g)^{2/n}< n.Vol(S^n,g_{\textrm{can}})^{2/n}$ and $\sigma_1(M,g,\rho)\mathcal…
We prove uniform a priori estimates for degenerate complex Monge-Amp\`ere equations on a family of hermitian varieties. This generalizes a theorem of Di Nezza-Guedj-Guenancia to hermitian contexts. The main result can be applied to study…
For manifolds with a distinguished asymptotically flat end, we prove a density theorem which produces harmonic asymptotics on the distinguished end, while allowing for points of incompleteness (or negative scalar curvature) away from this…
We show that closed manifolds supporting a nonpositively curved metric with negative $([\frac{n}{4}]+1)$-Ricci curvature, have positive simplicial volume. This answers a special case of a conjecture of Gromov.
Harmonic manifolds of hypergeometric type form a class of non-compact harmonic manifolds that includes rank one symmetric spaces of non-compact type and Damek-Ricci spaces. When normalizing the metric of a harmonic manifold of…
Let $(X, \xi)$ be a polarized affine variety, i.e. an affine variety $X$ with a (possibly irrational) Reeb vector field $\xi$. We define the volume of a filtration of the coordinate ring of $X$ in terms of the asymptotics of the average of…
In this paper, we study the non-pluripolar complex Monge-Amp\`ere measure on bounded domains in \( \mathbb{C}^n \). We establish a general existence theorem for a non-pluripolar complex Monge-Amp\`ere type equation with prescribed…
In this paper, we consider degenerate quaternionic Monge-Amp\`ere equations in weighted energy class $\mathcal{E}_{\chi}(\Omega)$ where $\Omega$ is a quarternionic domain in $\mathbb{H}^n$ and $\chi$ is a weight function which satisfies…
The paper is in essence a survey of categories having $\phi$-weighted colimits for all the weights $\phi$ in some class $\Phi$. We introduce the class $\Phi^+$ of {\em $\Phi$-flat} weights which are those $\psi$ for which $\psi$-colimits…
We show that for any closed Riemannian manifold with dimension at least two and with nonpositive curvature, if it admits an isolated, closed totally geodesic submanifold of codimension one, then its simplicial volume is positive. As a…
We prove that generalised Monge-Amp\`ere equations (a family of equations which includes the inverse Hessian equations like the $J$-equation, as well as the Monge-Amp\`ere equation) on projective manifolds have smooth solutions if certain…
