We prove that a closed oriented Einstein four-manifold is either anti-self-dual or (after passing to a double Riemann cover if necessary) K\"ahler-Einstein, provided that $\lambda_2 \geq -\frac{S}{12}$, where $\lambda_2$ is the middle…

We study an inverse problem for a non-compact Riemannian manifold whose ends have the following properties : On each end, the Riemannian metric is assumed to be a short-range perturbation of the metric of the form $(dy)^2 + h(x,dx)$,…

The first isospectral pairs of metrics are constructed on balls and spheres. This long standing problem, concerning the existence of such pairs, has been solved by a new method called "Anticommutator Technique." Among the wide range of such…

We show the existence of strictly almost-Kahler anti-self-dual metrics on certain 4-manifolds by deforming scalar-flat Kahler metrics. On the other hand, we prove the non-existence of such metrics on certain other 4-manifolds by means of…

We prove an analogue of the result of Hsiang and Kleiner for 4-dimensional compact orbifolds with positive curvature and an isometric circle action. Additionally, we prove that when the underlying space is simply connected, then the…

We show the existence of a weak bi-invariant symmetric nondegenerate 2-form on the contact diffeomorphisms group $\mathcal{D}_\theta$ of a contact Riemannian manifold $(M,g,\theta)$ and study its properties. We describe the Euler's equation…

We construct pairs of conformally equivalent isospectral Riemannian metrics $\phi_1 g$ and $\phi_2 g$ on spheres $S^n$ and balls $B^{n+1}$ for certain dimensions $n$, the smallest of which is $n=7$, and on certain compact simple Lie groups.…
