An almost complex manifolds $(M^4,J)$ of real dimension 4 with non-degenerate torsion bundle admit a double absolute parallelism and it is provided the classification of homogeneous $(M^4,J)$ having an associated non-solvable Lie algebra.…

In [Bre19], Simon Brendle showed that any compact manifold of dimension $n\geq12$ with positive isotropic curvature and contains no nontrivial incompressible $(n-1)-$dimensional space form is diffeomorphic to a connected sum of finitely…

Theorem: Let $n\ge 2.$ There is a CCC in $L$ forcing notion $P=P_n\in L$ such that $P$-generic extensions of $L$ are of the form $L[a],$ where $a\subseteq\omega$ and 1) $a$ is $\Delta^1_{n+1}$ in $L[a]$; and 2) if $b\in L[a],$…

Three philosophical principles are often quoted in connection with Leibniz: "objects sharing the same properties are the same object" (Identity of indiscernibles), "everything can possibly exist, unless it yields contradiction" (Possibility…

We extend the definition of quasi-finite complexes by considering not necessarily countable complexes. We provide a characterization of quasi-finite complexes in terms of L-invertible maps and dimensional properties of compactifications.…

We extend Donaldson's diagonalization theorem to intersection forms with certain local coefficients, under some constraints. This provides new examples of non-smoothable topological 4-manifolds.

The period map for a smooth closed 4-manifold assigns to a Riemannian metric the space of self-dual harmonic 2-forms. This map is from the space of metrics to the Grassmannian of maximal positive subspaces in the second cohomology, where…

We study curvature properties of four-dimensional Lorentzian manifold with two-symmetry property. We then consider Einstein-like metrics, Ricci solitons and homogeneity over these spaces.

Main Theorem (3.3): Let $M$ be a compact four-dimensional manifold either with curvature, positive on complex isotropic two-planes, or self-dual of positive scalar curvature. If $\pi_1 (M)$ admits a nontrivial unitary representation, and…

We show that for any closed nonpositively curved Riemannian 4-manifold $M$ with vanishing Euler characteristic, the Ricci curvature must degenerate somewhere. Moreover, for each point $p\in M$, either the Ricci tensor degenerates or else…

We prove that if a compact Riemannian 4-manifold with positive sectional curvature satisfies a Kato type inequality, then it is definite. We also discuss some new insights for compact Riemannian 4-manifolds of positive sectional curvature.

We classify those curvature-homogeneous Einstein four-manifolds, of all metric signatures, which have a complex-diagonalizable curvature operator. They all turn out to be locally homogeneous. More precisely, any such manifold must be either…

Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. This paper is concerned with the set of scalar-flat metrics which are in the conformal class of g and have the boundary as a constant mean curvature hypersurface. We prove that this…

Let $M$ be any compact four-dimensional PL-manifold with or without boundary (e.g. the four-dimensional sphere or ball). Consider the space $T(M)$ of all simplicial isomorphism classes of triangulations of $M$ endowed with the metric…

A 4-parametric family of 4-dimensional quasi-Kaehler manifolds with Norden metric is constructed on a Lie group. This family is characterized geometrically. The condition for such a 4-manifold to be isotropic Kaehler is given.

Haslhofer and M\"uller proved a compactness Theorem for four-dimensional shrinking gradient Ricci solitons, with the only assumption being that the entropy is uniformly bounded from below. However, the limit in their result could possibly…

We construct, assuming Jensen's principle diamond, a one-dimensional locally connected hereditarily separable continuum without convergent sequences. The construction is an inverse limit in omega_1 steps, and is patterned after the original…

In this paper we classify the four dimensional gradient shrinking solitons under certain curvature conditions satisfied by all solitons arising from finite time singularities of Ricci flow on compact four manifolds with positive isotropic…

We consider a separable compact line $K$ and its extension $L$ consisting of $K$ and a countable number of isolated points. The main object of study is the existence of a bounded extension operator $E: C(K)\to C(L)$. We show that if such an…

It is shown that a connected non-compact metrizable manifold of dimension $\ge 2$ is strongly discrete homogeneous if and only if it has one end (in the sense of Freudenthal compactification).
