In this paper, we introduce B.-Y. Chen inequalities for Riemannian submersions between Riemannian manifolds. We derive these inequalities for vertical, horizontal, and mixed distributions, establishing relationships between intrinsic…
Chern-Simons invariants of closed oriented Riemannian $3$-manifolds are introduced and studied from the basics. Their first-order variation is the Cotton tensor. The properties of the Cotton tensor: symmetry, conformal covariance, trace-…
We consider shells with zero Gaussian curvature, namely shells with one principal curvature zero and the other one having a constant sign. Our particular interests are shells that are diffeomorphic to a circular cylindrical shell with zero…
We establish an integral inequality for the Ricci curvature of a certain class of warped products $M\times_fN$, where the equality holds if and only if it is simply a Riemannian product. We also give a sufficient condition for the…
The Q-curvature has been playing a central role in conformal geometry since its discovery by T. Branson. It has natural analogy in CR geometry, however, the CR Q-curvature vanishes on the boundary of a strictly pseudoconvex domain in…
We prove Milnor-Wood inequalities for local products of manifolds. As a consequence, we establish the generalized Chern Conjecture for products $M\times \Sigma^k$ for any product of a manifold $M$ with a product of $k$ copies of a surface…
We first construct closed spherical CR manifolds of dimension at least five having non-trivial first Chern class with real coefficients. We next prove a constraint on Chern classes with real coefficients of (not necessarily closed)…

Choi-Wang established a lower bound for the first non-zero eigenvalue of the Laplacian on minimal hypersurfaces in manifolds with positive Ricci curvature. We extend this Choi-Wang type inequality to the setting of positive Ricci curvature…
We give a generalized curvature-dimension inequality connecting the geometry of sub-Riemannian manifolds with the properties of its sub-Laplacian. This inequality is valid on a large class of sub-Riemannian manifolds obtained from…
We apply the Riemannian Penrose inequality and the Riemannian positive mass theorem to derive inequalities on the boundary of a class of compact Riemannian $3$-manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature. The boundary of such a manifold has…
In this paper, we study warped product submanifolds of nearly trans-Sasakian manifolds. The non-existence of the warped product semi-slant submanifolds of the type $N_\theta\times{_{f}N_T}$ is shown, whereas some characterization and new…
The equivalence problem of curves with values in a Riemannian manifold, is solved. The domain of validity of Frenet's theorem is shown to be the spaces of constant curvature. For a general Riemannian manifold new invariants must thus be…
In this paper, we investigate the noncompact prescribed Chern scalar curvature problem which reduces to solve a Kazdan-Warner type equation on noncompact non-K\"{a}hler manifolds. By introducing an analytic condition on noncompact…
We introduce the concept of Calder\'on-Zygmund inequalities on Riemannian manifolds. For $1<p<\infty$, these are inequalities of the form $$ \left\Vert \mathrm{Hess}\left( u\right) \right\Vert _{L^p}\leq C_{1}\left\Vert u\right\Vert…
The main result of this paper is an expression of the flag curvature of a submanifold of a Randers-Minkowski space $({\mathscr V},F)$ in terms of invariants related to its Zermelo data $(h,W)$. More precisely, these invariants are the…
We obtain certain inequalities involving several intrinsic invariants namely scalar curvature, Ricci curvature and $k$-Ricci curvature, and main extrinsic invariant namely squared mean curvature for submanifolds in a locally conformal…
Following a suggestion made by J.-P. Demailly, for each $k\ge 1$, we endow, by an induction process, the $k$-th (anti)tautological line bundle $\mathcal O_{X_k}(1)$ of an arbitrary complex directed manifold $(X,V)$ with a natural smooth…
Searching normal forms for real analytic submanifolds of C^n involves convergence problems. In 1983, J.K. Moser and S.M. Webster provided examples of real analytic surfaces in C^2 having an isolated hyperbolic (in the sense of E. Bishop)…
