We apply the Riemannian Penrose inequality and the Riemannian positive mass theorem to derive inequalities on the boundary of a class of compact Riemannian $3$-manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature. The boundary of such a manifold has…
We prove existence and uniqueness results for conical geodesic bicombings on subsets of normed vector spaces. Concerning existence, we give a first example of a non-consistent convex geodesic bicombing. Furthermore, we show that under a…
Consider a connected homogeneous Riemannian manifold $(M,ds^2)$ and a Riemannian covering $(M,ds^2) \to \Gamma \backslash (M,ds^2)$. If $\Gamma \backslash (M,ds^2)$ is homogeneous then every $\gamma \in \Gamma$ is an isometry of constant…
In this paper we generalize the Local Removable Singularity Theorem in [16] for minimal laminations to the case of weak $H$-laminations (with $H\in \mathbb{R}$ constant) in a punctured ball of a Riemannian three-manifold. We also obtain a…
Consider a $C^{\infty}$ closed connected Riemannian manifold $(M, g)$ with negative curvature. The unit tangent bundle $SM$ is foliated by the (weak) stable foliation $\mathcal{W}^s$ of the geodesic flow. Let $\Delta^s$ be the leafwise…
We prove some finiteness results for discrete isometry groups $\Gamma$ of uniformly packed CAT$(0)$-spaces $X$ with uniformly bounded codiameter (up to group isomorphism), and for CAT$(0)$-orbispaces $M = \Gamma \backslash X$ (up to…

Let $f:M\to N$ be a smooth area decreasing map between two Riemannian manifolds $(M,\gm)$ and $(N,\gn)$. Under weak and natural assumptions on the curvatures of $(M,\gm)$ and $(N,\gn)$, we prove that the mean curvature flow provides a…
We show that for $k = 0, 1$ the graph of a continuous mapping $f:D \to \mathbb{R}^k\times\mathbb{C}^p$, defined on a domain $D$ in $\mathbb{C}^n\times\mathbb{R}^k$, is locally foliated by complex $n$-dimensional submanifolds if and only if…
In this article we survey recent developments in the theory of constant mean curvature surfaces in homogeneous 3-manifolds, as well as some related aspects on existence and descriptive results for $H$-laminations and CMC foliations of…
This paper presents a simplified geometric proof of the Molino-Alexandrino-Radeschi (MAR) Theorem, which states that the closure of a singular Riemannian foliation on a complete Riemannian manifold is itself a smooth singular Riemannian…
We study unimodular measures on the space $\mathcal M^d$ of all pointed Riemannian $d$-manifolds. Examples can be constructed from finite volume manifolds, from measured foliations with Riemannian leaves, and from invariant random subgroups…
We prove that the existence of a Hurewicz fibration between certain spaces with the homotopy type of a CW-complex implies some topological restrictions on their universal coverings. This result is used to deduce differentiable and metric…
For a riemannian foliation $\mathcal{F}$ on a closed manifold $M$, it is known that $\mathcal{F}$ is taut (i.e. the leaves are minimal submanifolds) if and only if the (tautness) class defined by the mean curvature form $\kappa_\mu$…
In this article, we study the geometric properties of codimension one foliations on Riemannian manifolds equipped with vector fields that are closed and conformal. Apart from its singularities, these vector fields define codimension one…
For a given smooth compact manifold $M$, we introduce an open class $\mathcal G(M)$ of Riemannian metrics, which we call \emph{metrics of the gradient type}. For such metrics $g$, the geodesic flow $v^g$ on the spherical tangent bundle $SM…
Let $M$ be a graph manifold such that each piece of its JSJ decomposition has the $\Bbb H^2 \times \Bbb R$ geometry. Assume that the pieces are glued by isometries. Then, there exists a complete Riemannian metric on $\Bbb R \times M$ which…
We extend the Chern-Heinz inequalities about mean curvature and scalar curvature of graphs of $C^{2}$-functions to leaves of transversally oriented codimension one $C^{2}$-foliations of Riemannian manifolds. That extends partially…
We prove that, given an acausal curve $\Gamma$ in the boundary at infinity of $AdS_{3}$ which is the graph of a quasi-symmetric homeomorphism $\phi$, there exists a unique foliation of its domain of dependence $D(\Gamma)$ by constant mean…
We investigate under which assumptions an orientable pseudo-Riemannian geodesic foliations by circles is generated by an $S^1$-action. We construct examples showing that, contrary to the Riemannian case, it is not always true. However, we…
