We characterize Riemannian manifolds of constant sectional curvature in terms of commutation properties of their Jacobi operators.

By considering the projectivized spectrum of the Jacobi operator, we introduce the concept of projective Osserman manifold in both the affine and in the pseudo-Riemannian settings. If M is an affine projective Osserman manifold, then the…

We classify the connected pseudo-Riemannian manifolds of signature $(p,q)$ with $q\ge5$ so that at each point of $M$ the skew-symmetric curvature operator has constant rank 2 and constant Jordan normal form on the set of spacelike 2 planes…

It is established that the existence of non-isotropic vector field which Jacobi operator of maximal rank is an obstacle for the existence of non-trivial second-order symmetric parallel tensor field. In turns out that presence of such…

In the algebraic context, we show that null Osserman, spacelike Osserman, and timelike Osserman are equivalent conditions for a model of signature (2,2). We also classify the null Jordan Osserman models of signature (2,2). In the geometric…

We study the bispectrality of Jacobi type polynomials, which are eigenfunctions of higher-order differential operators and can be defined by taking suitable linear combinations of a fixed number of consecutive Jacobi polynomials. Jacobi…

We study various properties of quasimodular forms by using their connections with Jacobi-like forms and pseudodifferential operators. Such connections are made by identifying quasimodular forms for a discrete subgroup $\G$ of $SL(2, \bR)$…

To study the Lawson-Osserman's counterexample to the Bernstein problem for minimal submanifolds of higher codimension, a new geometric concept, submanifolds in Euclidean space with constant Jordan angles(CJA), is introduced. By exploring…

A complete description of Osserman four-manifolds whose Jacobi operators have a nonzero double root of the minimal polynomial is given.

We study semi-Riemannian submanifolds of arbitrary codimension in a Lie group $G$ equipped with a bi-invariant metric. In particular, we show that, if the normal bundle of $M \subset G$ is closed under the Lie bracket, then any normal…

In the present paper we study geodesic mappings of special pseudo-Riemannian manifolds called $V_n(K)$-spaces. We prove that the set of solutions of the system of equations of geodesic mappings on $V_n(K)$-spaces $(K\neq0)$ forms a special…

We investigate the differential equation for the Jacobi-type polynomials which are orthogonal on the interval $[-1,1]$ with respect to the classical Jacobi measure and an additional point mass at one endpoint. This scale of higher-order…

We show that the pseudo-Riemannian geometry of submanifolds can be formulated in terms of higher order multi-linear maps. In particular, we obtain a Poisson bracket formulation of almost (para-)K\"ahler geometry.

Let M be a Riemannian manifold and R its curvature tensor. For a unit vector X tangent to M at a point p, the Jacobi operator is defined by R_X = R(X, .) X$. The manifold M is called pointwise Osserman if, for every point p, the spectrum of…

We give manifolds in both the Riemannian and in the higher signature settings whose Riemann curvature operators commute, i.e. which satisfy R(a,b)R(c,d)=R(c,d)R(a,b) for all tangent vectors. These manifolds have global geometric phenomena…

We show that 4-dimensional Riemannian manifolds which satisfy the Raki\'c duality principle are Osserman (i.e. the eigenvalues of the Jacobi operator are constant), thus both conditions are equivalent.

The geodesic orbit property is useful and interesting in itself, and it plays a key role in Riemannian geometry. It implies homogeneity and has important classes of Riemannian manifolds as special cases. Those classes include weakly…

Related to a semigroup of operators on a metric measure space, we define and study pseudodifferential operators (including the setting of Riemannian manifold, fractals, graphs ...). Boundedness on $L^p$ for pseudodifferential operators of…

Semi-Riemannian manifolds that satisfy (homogeneous) linear differential conditions of arbitrary order on the curvature are analyzed. They include, in particular, the spaces with (higher-order) recurrent curvature, (higher-order) symmetric…

Motivated by the theory of isoparametric hypersurfaces, we study submanifolds whose tubular hypersurfaces have some constant "higher order mean curvatures". Here a $k$-th order mean curvature $Q_k$ ($k\geq1$) of a hypersurface $M^n$ is…
