An important, if relatively less well known aspect of the singularity theorems in Lorentzian Geometry is to understand how their conclusions fare upon weakening or suppression of one or more of their hypotheses. Then, theorems with modified…

We prove a general version of the homological perturbation lemma which works in the presence of curvature, and without the restriction to strong deformation retracts, building on work of Markl. A key observation is that the notion of strong…

Let $c$ be a characteristic form of degree $k$ which is defined on a Kaehler manifold of real dimension $m>2k$. Taking the inner product with the Kaehler form $\Omega^k$ gives a scalar invariant which can be considered as a generalized…

We build a self-consistent relativistic scalar theory of gravitation on a flat Minkowski spacetime from a general field Lagrangian. It is shown that, for parameters that satisfy the Equivalence Principle, this theory predicts the same…

We prove pointwise and $L^{p}$-gradient comparison results for solutions to elliptic Dirichlet problems defined on open subsets of a (possibly non-smooth) space with positive Ricci curvature (more precisely of an $\mathrm{RCD}(K,N)$ metric…

We generalize the classical Blaschke Rolling Theorem to convex domains in Riemannian manifolds of bounded sectional curvature and arbitrary dimension. Our results are sharp and, in this sharp form, are new even in the model spaces of…

We introduce some new curvature quantities such as conformal Ricci curvature and bi-Ricci curvature and extend the classical Myers theorem under these new curvature conditions. Moreover, we are able to obtain the Myers type theorem for…

We develop a generalization of manifold calculus in the sense of Goodwillie-Weiss where the manifold is replaced by a simplicial complex. We consider functors from the category of open subsets of a fixed simplical complex into the category…

We study the algebra of functions on the Iwahori group via the category of graded bounded representations of its Lie algebra. In particular, we identify the standard and costandard objects in this category with certain generalized Weyl…

This paper establishes a Borsuk-Ulam type theorem for PL-manifolds with a finite group action, depending on the free equivariant cobordism class of a manifold. In particular, necessary and sufficient conditions are considered for a manifold…

In four space-time dimensions, there are good theoretical reasons for believing that General Relativity is the correct geometrical theory of gravity, at least at the classical level. If one admits the possibility of extra space-time…

For singular $n$-manifolds in $\mathbb R^{n+k}$ with a corank 1 singular point at $p\in M^n_{\mbox{sing}}$ we define up to $l(n-1)$ different axial curvatures at $p$, where $l=\min\{n,k+1\}$. These curvatures are obtained using the…

Let $(M^{n+1}, g)$ be a compact Riemannian manifold with smooth boundary B and nonnegative Bakry-Emery Ricci curvature. In this paper, we use the solvability of some elliptic equations to prove some estimates of the weighted mean curvature…

In this paper, we make a generalization of the results in \cite{Li22a} to the singular and weighted setting. In particular, we show that on a polarized projective klt variety, the $\mathbb{G}$-uniform weighted K-stability for models implies…

In this paper, we study Ricci-flat and Einstein Lorentzian multiply warped products. We also consider the case of having constant scalar curvatures for this class of warped products. Finally, after we introduce a new class of spacetimes…

We discuss some classical and quantum properties of 2d gravity models involving metric and a scalar field. Different models are parametrized in terms of a scalar potential. We show that a general Liouville-type model with exponential…

In this paper, we consider the smooth map from a Riemannian manifold to the standard Euclidean space and the p-Ginzburg-Landau energy. Under suitable curvature conditions on the domain manifold, some Liouville type theorems are established…

We point out how some recent developments in the theory of constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metrics can be used to clarify the existence issue for such metrics in the special case of geometrically ruled complex surfaces.

In this paper, we prove conformal positive mass theorems for asymptotically flat manifolds with charge. We apply conformal relations to show that if the conformal sum of scalar curvature is not less than the norm square of electric field…

In this paper, we investigate the null (light-like) sectional curvatures of Lorentzian warped product manifolds. We derive the formulas for the null sectional curvature of many well-known warped product space-time models such as multiply…
