We consider a special class of Finsler metrics --- square metrics which are defined by a Riemannian metric and a 1-form on a manifold. We show that an analogue of the Beltrami Theorem in Riemannian geometry is still true for square metrics…

We show that there are topological obstructions for a noncompact manifold to admit a Riemannian metric with quadratic curvature decay and a volume growth which is slower than that of Euclidean space of the same dimension.

We consider the curvature of a family of warped products of two pseduo-Riemannian manifolds $(B,g_B)$ and $(F,g_F)$ furnished with metrics of the form $c^{2}g_B \oplus w^2 g_F$ and, in particular, of the type $w^{2 \mu}g_B \oplus w^2 g_F$,…

Let $(M^{n},g_{0})$ be a $n=3,4,5$ dimensional, closed Riemannian manifold of positive Yamabe invariant. For a smooth function $K>0$ on $M$ we consider a scalar curvature flow, that tends to prescribe $K$ as the scalar curvature of a metric…
