This paper is concerned with the zero mode equation $D_g\varphi=iA\cdot\varphi$ on closed spin manifold $(M^n,g,\sigma)$ of positive scalar curvature. Here $A$ is a real one form on $M$. We proved that if $(\varphi, A)$ is a non trivial…
For non-trivial solutions to the zero mode equation on a closed spin manifold \[D \varphi=iA\cdot \varphi,\] we first provide a simple proof for the sharp inequality \eq{ \norm{A}_{L^n}^2 \ge \frac {n}{4(n-1)} Y(M,[g]), } where $Y(M,[g])$…
We consider on a closed Riemannian spin manifold $(M^n,g,\sigma)$ the spinorial Yamabe type equation $D_g\varphi=\lambda|\varphi|^{\frac{2}{n-1}}\varphi$, where $\varphi$ is a spinor field and $\lambda$ is a positive constant. For a…

We show that if a compact connected $n$-dimensional manifold $M$ has a conformal class containing two non-homothetic metrics $g$ and $\tilde g=e^{2\varphi}g$ with non-generic holonomy, then after passing to a finite covering, either $n=4$…

We study complete Riemannian manifolds satisfying the equation $Ric+\nabla^2 f-\frac{1}{m}df\otimes df=0$ by studying the associated PDE $\Delta_f f + m\mu e^{2f/m}=0$ for $\mu\leq 0$. By developing a gradient estimate for $f$, we show…
For a closed Riemannian manifold $(M^m,g)$ of constant positive scalar curvature and any other closed Riemannian manifold $(N^n,h)$, we show that the limit of the Yamabe constants of the Riemannian products $(M\times N,g+rh)$ as $r$ goes to…
Let $(M,\textit{g},\sigma)$ be an $m$-dimensional closed spin manifold, with a fixed Riemannian metric $\textit{g}$ and a fixed spin structure $\sigma$; let $\mathbb{S}(M)$ be the spinor bundle over $M$. The spinorial Yamabe-type problems…
Let $(M^n, g)$ and $(X^m, h)$ be closed manifolds $m, n>2$, such that $(X, h)$ has constant positive scalar curvature. We consider the one parameter family of products $(M\times X, g+\epsilon^2 h)$, $\epsilon>0$. We prove that if either the…
We study conformal product structures on compact reducible Riemannian manifolds, and show that under a suitable technical assumption, the underlying Riemannian mani\-folds are either conformally flat, or triple products, \emph{i.e.} locally…

Let M be a compact manifold equipped with a Riemannian metric g and a spin structure \si. We let $\lambda (M,[g],\si)= \inf_{\tilde{g} \in [g]} \lambda_1^+(\tilde{g}) Vol(M,\tilde{g})^{1/n}$ where $\lambda_1^+(\tilde{g})$ is the smallest…
We prove a necessary criterion for the (non-)existence of nontrivial solutions to the Dirac equation $D\psi=i A \cdot_{Cl} \psi$ on Riemannian manifolds that are either closed or of bounded geometry. This generalizes a result of Rupert…
Let $(M,g,\si)$ be a compact Riemannian spin manifold of dimension $\geq 2$. For any metric $\tilde g$ conformal to $g$, we denote by $\tilde\lambda$ the first positive eigenvalue of the Dirac operator on $(M,\tilde g,\si)$. We show that…
In this paper we revisit the $\sigma_k$-Yamabe problem on $M^n$, namely, finding a conformal metric with constant $\sigma_k$-scalar curvature. We prove that on a closed manifold $\left(M,\left[g_0\right]\right)$ with positive Yamabe…
We consider the Yamabe equation on a complete non-compact Riemannian manifold and study the condition of stability of solutions. If $(M^m,g)$ is a closed manifold of constant positive scalar curvature, which we normalize to be $m(m-1)$, we…
We study the zero modes of the operator $H_f=D^*_fD_f$, with a Dirac type operator $D_f$, acting on the spinor bundle over a closed even dimensional Riemannian manifold $M$. The operator $D_f=D+ifI$ is a deformation of the Dirac operator…
