We prove a splitting theorem for Riemannian n-manifolds with scalar curvature bounded below by a negative constant and containing certain area-minimising hypersurfaces (Theorem 3). Thus we generalise [25,Theorem 3] by Nunes. This splitting…

We present a version of the Lorentzian splitting theorem under a weakened Ricci curvature condition. The proof makes use of basic properties of achronal limits [19], [20], together with the geometric maximum principle for $C^0$ spacelike…

In this paper, we prove several rigidity results for complete noncompact manifolds with nonnegative intermediate curvatures. We show that when either $3\leq n\leq 5$, $1\leq m\leq n-1$, or $6\leq n\leq 7$, $m\in \{1,n-1,n-2\}$, any manifold…
