Let $(M^n_i, g_i)\to (X,d_X)$ be a Gromov-Hausdorff converging sequence of Riemannian manifolds with ${\rm Sec}_{g_i} \ge -1$, ${\rm diam}\, (M_i)\le D$, and such that the $M^n_i$ are all homeomorphic to tori $T^n$. Then $X$ is homeomorphic…

Let $(M,g_0)$ be a closed Riemannian manifold of dimension $n$, for $3 \leq n \leq 7$, and non-negative Ricci curvature. Let $g = \phi^2 g_0$ be a metric in the conformal class of $g_0$. We show that there exists a smooth closed embedded…

Let $(M,g)$ be a smooth Riemannian manifold and $\mathsf{G}$ a compact Lie group acting on $M$ effectively and by isometries. It is well known that a lower bound of the sectional curvature of $(M,g)$ is again a bound for the curvature of…

We consider sequences of metrics, $g_j$, on a Riemannian manifold, $M$, which converge smoothly on compact sets away from a singular set $S\subset M$, to a metric, $g_\infty$, on $M\setminus S$. We prove theorems which describe when…

Let $M$ be a compact $n$-manifold of $\operatorname{Ric}_M\ge (n-1)H$ ($H$ is a constant). We are concerned with the following space form rigidity: $M$ is isometric to a space form of constant curvature $H$ under either of the following…

We prove that if an asymptotically Schwarzschildean 3-manifold (M,g) contains a properly embedded stable minimal surface, then it is isometric to the Euclidean space. This implies, for instance, that in presence of a positive ADM mass any…

Let the complexity of a closed manifold M be the minimal number of simplices in a triangulation of M. Such a quantity is clearly submultiplicative with respect to finite coverings, and by taking the infimum on all finite coverings of M…

We prove that if $M$ is a closed $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold, $n \ge 3$, with ${\rm Ric}\ge n-1$ and for which the optimal constant in the critical Sobolev inequality equals the one of the $n$-dimensional sphere $\mathbb{S}^n$, then…

We investigate the geometry of the family $\cal M$ of isometry classes of compact metric spaces, endowed with the Gromov-Hausdorff metric. We show that sufficiently small neighborhoods of generic finite spaces in the subspace of all finite…

The original proof of the Gromov's non-squeezing theorem [Gro85] is based on pseudo-holomorphic curves. The central ingredient is the compactness of the moduli space of pseudo-holomorphic spheres in the symplectic manifold…

By works of Schoen-Yau and Gromov-Lawson any Riemannian manifold with nonnegative scalar curvature and diffeomorphic to a torus is isometric to a flat torus. Gromov conjectured subconvergence of tori with respect to a weak Sobolev type…

In this paper, we describe the intersection between geodesic and conformal currents on closed hyperbolic three-manifolds. We use this to prove some sharp bounds which involve the Liouville entropy of a negatively curved metric, the minimal…

We show that if a closed manifold M admits an F-structure (possibly of rank 0) then its minimal entropy vanishes. In particular, this is the case if M admits a non-trivial circle action. As a corollary we obtain that the simplicial volume…

In this paper, we consider a fixed metric space (possibly an oriented Riemannian manifold with boundary) with an increasing sequence of distance functions and a uniform upper bound on diameter. When the metric space endowed with the…

Consider a sequence of Riemannian manifolds $(M^n_i,g_i)$ with scalar curvatures and entropies bounded below by small constants $R_i,\mu_i \geq-\epsilon_i$. The goal of this paper is to understand notions of convergence and the structure of…

Following Cao-Hamilton-Ilmanen, in this paper we study the linear stability of Perelman's $\nu$-entropy on Einstein manifolds with positive Ricci curvature. We observe the equivalence between the linear stability restricted to the…

We show that the minimal volume entropy of closed manifolds remains unaffected when nonessential manifolds are added in a connected sum. We combine this result with the stable cohomotopy invariant of Bauer-Furuta in order to present an…

In 2014, Gromov vaguely conjectured that a sequence of manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature should have a subsequence which converges in some weak sense to a limit space with some generalized notion of nonnegative scalar curvature.…

In this paper, we prove a classification theorem for the stable compact minimal submanifolds of the Riemannian product of an $m_1$-dimensional ($m_1\geq3$) hypersurface $M_1$ in the Euclidean space and any Riemannian manifold $M_2$, when…

In this paper we prove that every homeomorphism of a compact metric space admitting an invariant probability measure with full support can be approximated in the $C^0$-Gromov--Hausdorff topology by homeomorphisms with zero topological…
