Hamilton's pinching conjecture, that three-dimensional complete non-compact manifolds with pinched Ricci curvature are flat, has recently been resolved using Ricci flow. In this paper we prove a direct analogue of that result in all…
We study two natural problems concerning the scalar and the Ricci curvatures of the Bismut connection. Firstly, we study an analog of the Yamabe problem for Hermitian manifolds related to the Bismut scalar curvature, proving that, fixed a…

We conjecture that any scalar-flat K\"ahler surface in which the Weyl tensor acting on 2-forms annihilates the Ricci form must be either Ricci-flat or locally isometric to a Riemannian product of two real surfaces with mutually opposite…

Let $(M, g)$ be a complete, connected, non-compact Riemannian $3$-manifold. Suppose that $(M,g)$ satisfies the Ricci--pinching condition $\mathrm{Ric}\geq\varepsilon\mathrm{R} g$ for some $\varepsilon>0$, where $\mathrm{Ric}$ and…

The aim of this paper is to extend the notion of all known quasi-Einstein manifolds like generalized quasi-Einstein, mixed generalized quasi-Einstein manifold, pseudo generalized quasi-Einstein manifold and many more and name it…
We classify Einstein metrics on $\mathbb{R}^4$ invariant under a four-dimensional group of isometries including a principal action of the Heisenberg group. The metrics are either Ricci-flat or of negative Ricci curvature. We show that all…
Building upon previous works characterizing GRW space-times using concircular and torse-forming vectors, this paper investigates a Lorentzian manifold equipped with a concircularly semi-symmetric metric connection. We demonstrate that such…
Consider a Riemannian spin manifold $(M^{n}, g)$ $(n\geq 3)$ endowed with a non-trivial 3-form $T\in\Lambda^{3}T^{*}M$, such that $\nabla^{c}T=0$, where $\nabla^{c}:=\nabla^{g}+\frac{1}{2}T$ is the metric connection with skew-torsion $T$.…
It is well-known that every 6-dimensional strictly nearly K\"{a}hler manifold $(M,g,J)$ is Einstein with positive scalar curvature $scal>0$. Moreover, one can show that the space $E$ of co-closed primitive (1,1)-forms on $M$ is stable under…
In this paper, we consider the cyclic parallel Ricci tensor condition, which is a necessary condition for an affine manifold to be Szab\'o. We show that, in dimension $3$, there are affine manifolds which satisfy the cyclic parallel Ricci…

Positive $k^{\rm th}$-intermediate Ricci curvature on a Riemannian $n$-manifold, to be denoted by $\mathrm{Ric}_k > 0$, is a condition that interpolates between positive sectional and positive Ricci curvature (when $k =1$ and $k=n-1$…
The Rarita-Schwinger operator is the twisted Dirac operator restricted to 3/2-spinors. Rarita-Schwinger fields are solutions of this operator which are in addition divergence-free. This is an overdetermined problem and solutions are rare;…
In this paper, we deal with Serrin-type problems in Riemannian manifolds. First, we obtain a Heintze-Karcher inequality and a Soap Bubble result, with its respective rigidity, when the ambient space has a Ricci tensor bounded below. After,…
