We present new explicit tight and overtwisted contact structures on the (round) 3-sphere and the (flat) 3-torus for which the ambient metric is weakly compatible. Our proofs are based on the construction of nonvanishing curl eigenfields…

A new 8-dimensional conformal gauging avoids the unphysical size change, third order gravitational field equations, and auxiliary fields that prevent taking the conformal group as a fundamental symmetry. We give the structure equations,…

We introduce orthogonal ring patterns in the 2-sphere and in the hyperbolic plane, consisting of pairs of concentric circles, which generalize circle patterns. We show that their radii are described by a discrete integrable system. This is…

We find a new obstruction for a real Einstein 4-orbifold with an A1-singularity to be a limit of smooth Einstein 4-manifolds. The obstruction is a curvature condition at the singular point. For asymptotically hyperbolic metrics, with…

This paper considers the prescribed zero scalar curvature and mean curvature problem on the n-dimensional Euclidean ball for $n \geq 3$. Given a rotationally symmetric function $H:\partial B^{n}\rightarrow R$, in this work, we will prove…

There are described hierarchies of equations coupling a metric with a trace-free tensor having prescribed symmetries and in the kernel of certain generalized gradients. These specialize, when the tensor vanishes identically, to the usual…

Let $M$ be a compact oriented 3-manifold with non-empty boundary consisting of surfaces of genii $>1$ such that the interior of $M$ is hyperbolizable. We show that for each spherical cone-metric $d$ on $\partial M$ such that all cone-angles…

The distortion of six different intrinsic metrics and quasi-metrics under conformal and quasiregular mappings is studied in a few simple domains $G\subsetneq\mathbb{R}^n$. The already known inequalities between the hyperbolic metric and…

We find necessary and sufficient conditions for a Riemannian four-dimensional manifold $(M, g)$ with anti-self-dual Weyl tensor to be locally conformal to a Ricci--flat manifold. These conditions are expressed as the vanishing of scalar and…

Shibata, Ury\=u and Friedman recently suggested a new decomposition of Einstein's equations that is useful for constructing initial data. In contrast to previous decompositions, the conformal metric is no longer treated as a…

We consider codimension 2 sphere congruences in pseudo-conformal geometry that are harmonic with respect to the conformal structure of an orthogonal surface. We characterise the orthogonal surfaces of such congruences as either $S$-Willmore…

Let $(M, \partial M)$ be a compact 3-manifold with boundary, which admits a convex co-compact hyperbolic metric. We consider the hyperbolic metrics on $M$ such that the boundary is smooth and strictly convex. We show that the induced…

We study the second Huber theorem in dimensions 2 and 4. In dimension 2, we prove a new version assuming that the Gauss curvature lies in a negative Sobolev space using Coulomb frames. In dimension $4$, given a metric having a pointwise…
