This short note concerns with two inequalities in the geometry of gradient Ricci solitons $(g, f, \lambda )$ on a smooth manifold $M$. These inequalities provide some relationships between the curvature of the Riemannian metric $g$ and the…

We argue for more widespread use of manifold-like polyfolds (M-polyfolds) as differential geometric objects. M-polyfolds possess a distinct advantage over differentiable manifolds, enabling a smooth and local change of dimension. To…
