Let $R$ be a commutative ring. Roughly speaking, we prove that an $R$-module $M$ is flat iff it is a direct limit of $R$-module affine algebraic varieties, and $M$ is a flat Mittag-Leffler module iff it is the union of its $R$-submodule…

In this paper we prove that every Riemannian metric on a locally conformally flat manifold with umbilic boundary can be conformally deformed to a scalar flat metric having constant mean curvature. This result can be seen as a generalization…

This paper surveys some selected topics in the theory of conformal metrics and their connections to complex analysis, partial differential equations and conformal differential geometry.

In this paper we consider flat metrics (semi-translation structures) on surfaces of finite type. There are two main results. The first is a complete description of when a set of simple closed curves is spectrally rigid, that is, when the…

We study the projective spectrum of the Rees algebra of a module, and characterize it by a universal property. As applications, we give descriptions of universal flatifications of modules and of birational projective morphisms.

Inspired by the work of Hahn-Raksit-Wilson, we introduce a variant of the even filtration which is naturally defined on $\mathbf{E}_{1}$-rings and their modules. We show that our variant satisfies flat descent and so agrees with the…

According to [8] if the stationary Schroedinger equation on n-dim. Riemann space admits R-separation of variables (i.e. separation of variables with a factor R), then the underlying metric is necessarily isothermic. An important sub-class…

In this article, the projectivity of finitely generated flat modules of a commutative ring are studied from a topological point of view. Then various interesting results are obtained. For instance, it is shown that if a ring has either a…

In this paper we prove that on a closed oriented surface, flat metrics determined by holomorphic quadratic differentials can be distinguished from other flat cone metrics by the length spectrum.

Complete complex parabolic geometries (including projective connections and conformal connections) are flat and homogeneous. This is the first global theorem on parabolic geometries.

Let $R$ be a constant. Let $\mathcal{M}^R_\gamma$ be the space of smooth metrics $g$ on a given compact manifold $\Omega^n$ ($n\ge 3$) with smooth boundary $\Sigma $ such that $g$ has constant scalar curvature $R$ and $g|_{\Sigma}$ is a…

We classify compact conformally flat $n$-dimensional manifolds with constant positive scalar curvature and satisfying an optimal integral pinching condition: they are covered isometrically by either $\mathbb{S}^{n}$ with the round metric,…

In this article, we summarize the results on symmetric conformal geometries. We review the results following from the general theory of symmetric parabolic geometries and prove several new results for symmetric conformal geometries. In…

We consider space-time models with pure radiation, which admit integration of the eikonal equation by the method of separation of variables. For all types of these models, the equations of the energy-momentum conservation law were…

Let R be a commutative ring with identity and S a multiplicative subset of R. The aim of this paper is to study the class of commutative rings in which every S-flat module is flat (resp., projective). An R-module M is said to be S-flat if…

We prove that for each closed smooth spin 4-manifold M there exists a closed smooth 4-manifold N such that the connected sum M # N admits a conformally flat Riemannian metric.

Uniformly perfect measures are a common generalisation of Ahlfors regular measures, self-conformal measures on the line, and their push-forwards under sufficiently regular maps. We show that every uniformly perfect measure $\sigma$ on a…
