In this paper, we study the topological rigidity and its relationship with the positivity of scalar curvature. Precisely, we show that any complete contractible $3$-manifold with non-negative scalar curvature is homeomorphic to…
In this paper we construct an explicit geometric model for the group of gerbes over an orbifold $X$. We show how from its curvature we can obtain its characteristic class in $H^3(X)$ via Chern-Weil theory. For an arbitrary gerbe $\LL$, a…
We study the local limit theorem for weighted sums of Bernoulli variables. We show on examples that this is an important question in the general theory of the local limit theorem, and which turns up to be not well explored. The examples we…
The aim of this paper is to bring together a new type of quantum calculus, namely $p $-calculus, and variational calculus. We develop $p $-variational calculus and obtain a necessary optimality condition of Euler-Lagrange type and a…
We briefly discuss explicit compact object solutions in higher-order scalar-tensor theories. We start by so-called stealth solutions, whose metric are General Relativity (GR) solutions, but accompanied by a non-trivial scalar field, in both…
In this paper we prove the scalar curvature extremality and rigidity for a class of warped product spaces that are possibly degenerate at the two ends. The leaves of these warped product spaces can be any closed Riemannian manifolds with…
In this paper, we establish new Laplacian comparison theorems and rigidity theorems for complete K\"ahler manifolds under new curvature notions that interpolate between Ricci curvature and holomorphic bisectional curvature.
We establish a general Liouville type theorem for conformally invariant fully nonlinear equations.
We establish a version, formulated in terms of non-Archimedean pluripotential theory, of the Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture for constant scalar curvature and, more generally, weighted extremal K\"ahler metrics with prescribed compact…
We revisit the conformally coupled scalar gravitational theory. This is the simplest local-scale invariant theory of gravity which is linear in the curvature scalar. We demonstrate that, if incorporate local-scale symmetry into the…
Using minimal hypersurfaces, we obtain topological obstructions to admitting complete metrics with positive scalar curvature on a given class of non-compact n-manifolds with n less than 8. We show that the Liouville theorem for a locally…
A generalization of the Borsuk-Ulam theorem to Stiefel manifolds is considered. This theorem is applied to derive bounds on $d$ that guarantee-for a given set of $m$ measures in $\mathbb{R}^d$-the existence of $k$ mutually orthogonal…
We study the weighted constant scalar curvature K\"ahler equations on mildly singular K\"ahler varieties. Assuming the existence of a suitable resolution of singularities, we establish the existence of singular weighted cscK metrics when…
In this article, we give a complete and self--contained account of Chernysh's strengthening of the Gromov--Lawson surgery theorem for metrics of positive scalar curvature. No claim of originality is made.
This note intends to demonstrate how to discuss scalar curvature functions' admissibility on bundles by directly applying some of the Kazdan--Warner results. Proofs of the concept include determining which functions are realizable as scalar…
In this paper we use the strength of the constraint method in combination with a generalized Borsuk-Ulam type theorem and a cohomological intersection lemma to show how one can obtain many new topological transversal theorems of Tverberg…
By carrying out refined point-wise estimates for the mean curvature, we prove better rigidity theorems of Lagrangian and symplectic translating solitons.
In this paper we prove that the set of metrics conformal to the standard metric on $\mathbb{S}^{n}\backslash\{p_{1},\cdots,p_{l}\}$ is locally compact in $C^{m,\alpha}$ topology for any $m>0$, whenever the metrics have constant $\sigma_{k}$…
We relate certain universal curvature identities for Kaehler manifolds to the Euler-Lagrange equations of the scalar invariants which are defined by pairing characteristic forms with powers of the Kaehler form.
We algebraically compute all possible sectional curvature values for canonical algebraic curvature tensors, and use this result to give a method for constructing general sectional curvature bounds. We use a well-known method to…
