We investigate the geometric and topological structure of equidistant decompositions of Riemannian manifolds.

An explicit classification of simply connected compact homogeneous CR manifolds G/L of codimension one, with non-degenerate Levi form, is given. There are three classes of such manifolds: a) the standard CR homogeneous manifolds which are…

In this paper, we give some rigidity results for both harmonic and pseudoharmonic maps from CR manifolds into Riemannian manifolds or Kahler manifolds. Some basicity, pluriharmonicity and Siu-Sampson type results are established for both…

We establish a relation between the growth of the cylindrical contact homology of a contact manifold and the topological entropy of Reeb flows on this manifold. We show that if a contact manifold $(M,\xi)$ admits a hypertight contact form…

In this article, we give a brief survey of recent developments on relations between global embeddability of a closed strictly pseudoconvex CR manifold and the CR Paneitz operator.

We reduce CR-structures on smooth elliptic and hyperbolic manifolds of CR-codimension 2 to parallelisms thus solving the problem of global equivalence for such manifolds. The parallelism that we construct is defined on a sequence of two…

We study the second fundamental form of semi-isometric CR immersions from strictly pseudoconvex CR manifolds into K\"ahler manifolds. As an application, we give a precise condition for the CR umbilicality of real hypersurfaces, extending an…

We study the eigenvalues of the Kohn Laplacian on a closed embedded strictly pseudoconvex CR manifold as functionals on the set of positive oriented pseudohermitian structures $\mathcal{P}_{+}$. We show that the functionals are continuous…

We provide obstructions to the existence of conformally Anosov Reeb flows on a 3-manifold that partially generalize similar obstructions to Anosov Reeb flows. In particular, we show $\mathbb{S}^3$ does not admit conformally Anosov Reeb…

We consider locally homogeneous $CR$ manifolds and show that, under a condition only depending on their underlying contact structure, their $CR$ automorphisms form a finite dimensional Lie group.

The space of convex projective structures has been well studied with respect to the topological entropy. But, to better understand the geometry of the structure, we study the entropy of the Sinai-Ruelle-Bowen measure and show that it is a…

This paper addresses two questions related to mapping problems. In the first part of the paper, we discuss some recent results regarding the $2$-jet determination for biholomorphisms between smooth (weakly) pseudoconvex hypersurfaces; in…

In this paper, we build a compactification by a strictly pseudoconvex CR structure for complete and non-compact K\"ahler manifolds whose curvature tensor is asymptotic to that of the complex hyperbolic space.

We obtain an embedding theorem for compact strongly pseudoconvex CR manifolds which are bounadries of some complete Hermitian manifolds. We use this to compactify some negatively curved Kaehler manifolds with compact strongly pseudoconvex…

We classify pseudo parallel proper CR-submanifolds in a non-flat complex space form with CR-dimension greater than one. With this result, the non-existence of recurrent as well as semi parallel proper CR-submanifolds in a non-flat complex…

In this paper we present new examples of homogeneous 2-nondegenerate CR-manifolds of dimension 5 and give, up to local CR-equivalence, a full classification of all CR-manifolds of this type.

In this paper, we investigate topological modes of different physical systems defined on arbitrary two-dimensional curved surfaces. We consider the shallow water equations, inhomogeneous Maxwell's equations, Jackiw-Rebbi model and show how…

A joint generalization of real smooth as well of complex manifolds are the Cauchy-Riemann manifolds. The main objective of the paper is to inroduce a class of symmetric CR manifolds containing both classes of Riemannian and Hermitian…
