Inspired by the work of Fischer-Marsden [Duke Math. J. 42 (1975), 519-547], we study in this paper the deformation of the weighted scalar curvature. By studying the kernel of the formal $L_\phi^2$-adjoint for the linearization of the…
Let $\mathbb{Q}_3$ be the complex 3-quadric endowed with its standard complex conformal structure. We study the complex conformal geometry of isotropic curves in $\mathbb{Q}_3$. By an isotropic curve we mean a nonconstant holomorphic map…
Scalar fields describe interesting phenomena such as Higgs bosons, dark matter and dark energy, and are found to be quite common in physical theories. These fields are susceptible to gravitational forces so that being massless is not enough…

We give existence results for solutions of the prescribed scalar curvature equation on $S^3$, when the curvature function is a positive Morse function and satisfies an index-count condition.
In this paper, we characterize conformal vector fields of any (regular or singular) $(\alpha,\beta)$-space with some PDEs. Further, we show some properties of conformal vector fields of a class of singular $(\alpha,\beta)$-spaces satisfying…
The simulations of the light scalar mesons on the lattice are presented at the introductory level. The methods for determining the scalar meson masses are described. The problems related to some of these methods are presented and their…
This letter describes a scalar curvature invariant for general relativity with a certain, distinctive feature. While many such invariants exist, this one vanishes in regions of space-time which can be said unambiguously to contain no…

The change of conformal moduli of polygonal quadrilaterals under some geometric transformations is studied. We consider the motion of one vertex when the other vertices remain fixed, the rotation of sides, polarization, symmetrization, and…
Let $(X, g^+)$ be an asymptotically hyperbolic manifold and $(M, [\hat{h}])$ its conformal infinity. Our primary aim in this paper is to introduce the prescribed fractional scalar curvature problem on $M$ and provide solutions under various…
The conformal properties of metrics are meaningful in Riemannian and Finsler geometry, and cubic metrics are useful in physics and biology. In this paper, we study the conformally flat cubic metrics with weakly isotropic scalar curvature.…
We find the minimal value of the length in de Sitter space of closed space-like curves with non-vanishing non-space-like geodesic curvature vector. These curves are in correspondence with closed almost-regular canal surfaces, and their…
In an earlier paper (Class. Quantum Grav. 19 (2002) p.259) the author wrote the homothetic equations for vacuum solutions in a first order formalism allowing for arbitrary alignment of the dyad. This paper generalises that method to…
These informal notes are concerned with spaces of functions in various situations, including continuous functions on topological spaces, holomorphic functions of one or more complex variables, and so on.
We consider conformal deformations within a class of incomplete Riemannian metrics which generalize conic orbifold singularities by allowing both warping and any compact manifold (not just quotients of the sphere) to be the "link" of the…

In this paper, close surfaces are considered in 3-dimensional harmonic conformally flat space in point of the variation. It is shown that if the conformal vector field be tangent to surface and the sign of the mean curvature does not change…
