For a submanifold with flat normal bundle in a space form there is a normal orthonormal basis that simultaneously diagonalizes the corresponding Weingarten operators, and at which these operators satisfy a simple Codazzi symmetry. When the…
N=(2,2), d=2 supersymmetric non-linear sigma-models provide a physical realization of Hitchin's and Gualtieri's generalized Kaehler geometry. A large subclass of such models are comprised by WZW-models on even-dimensional reductive group…
This paper explains the construction of all hypersurfaces with constant mean curvature -- cmc -- and exactly two principal curvatures on any space form endowed with a semi-riemannian metric. Here we will consider riemannian hypersurfaces as…
I examine the Generalized K$\ddot{a}$hler geometry of classical $N=(2,2)$ superconformal WZW model on a compact group and relate the right-moving and left-moving Kac-Moody superalgebra currents to the Generalized K$\ddot{a}$hler geometry…
As first noted in Korevaar, Kusner and Solomon ("KKS"), constant mean curvature implies a homological conservation law for hypersurfaces in ambient spaces with Killing fields.In Theorem 3.5 here, we generalize that law by relaxing the…
In this article we continue the study of the two curvature notions for K\"ahler manifolds introduced by the first named author earlier: the so-called cross quadratic bisectional curvature (CQB) and its dual ($^d$CQB). We first show that…
In the present paper, we introduce bi-slant submersions from almost Hermitian manifolds onto Riemannian manifolds as a generalization of invariant, anti-invariant, semi-invariant, slant, semi-slant and hemi-slant Riemannian submersions. We…
We classify constant mean curvature surfaces invariant by a 1-parameter group of isometries in the Berger spheres and in the special linear group Sl(2, R). In particular, all constant mean curvature spheres in those spaces are described…
In this paper, we produce explicit examples of mean curvature flow of (2m-1)-dimensional submanifolds which converge to (2m-2)-dimensional submanifolds at a finite time. These examples are a special class of hyperspheres in $\mathbb{C}^{m}$…
Riemannian manifolds of quasi-constant sectional curvatures (QC-manifolds) are divided into two basic classes: with positive or negative horizontal sectional curvatures. We prove that the Riemannian QC-manifolds with positive horizontal…
In this short paper, we study a symmetric covariant tensor in Finsler geometry, which is called the mean Berwald curvature. We first investigate the geometry of the fibres as the submanifolds of the tangent sphere bundle on a Finsler…
In this paper, we study global properties of continuous plurisubharmonic functions on complete noncompact K\"ahler manifolds with nonnegative bisectional curvature and their applications to the structure of such manifolds. We prove that…
Let M be a six dimensional manifold, endowed with a cohomogeneity one action of G= SU_2 x SU_2, and M_reg its subset of regular points. We show that M_reg admits a smooth, 2-parameter family of G-invariant, non-isometric strict nearly…
We consider an asymmetric left-invariant norm $||\cdot ||_K$ in the first Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^1$ induced by a convex body $K\subset\mathbb{R}^2$ containing the origin in its interior. Associated to $\|\cdot\|_K$ there is a…
We consider spacelike graphs $\Gamma_f$ of simple products $(M\times N, g\times -h)$ where $(M,g)$ and $(N,h)$ are Riemannian manifolds and $f:M\to N$ is a smooth map. Under the condition of the Cheeger constant of $M$ to be zero and some…
A model describing cell membranes as optimal shapes with regard to the $L^2$-deficit of their mean curvature to a given constant called spontaneous curvature is considered. It is shown that the corresponding energy functional is lower…
We provide an elementary proof of a lemma that plays an important role in the classification of parallel mean curvature surfaces in two-dimensional complex space forms.
In this note, we generalize a mean-value inequality of Guo-Phong-Sturm to the setting of a compact K\"ahler orbifold. This shows that their reasoning is insensitive to quotient singularities. As we aim for a self-contained exposition, we…
A locally conformally K\"ahler (LCK) manifold is a complex manifold whose universal cover is K\"ahler with monodromy group acting on the universal cover by holomorphic homotheties. A Vaisman manifold $M$ is a compact non-K\"ahler LCK…
We study special almost Kaehler manifolds whose curvature tensor satisfies the second curvature condition of Gray. It is shown that for such manifolds, the torsion of the first canonical Hermitian is parallel. This enables us to show that…
