In the framework of the study of homogeneous Lorentzian three-manifolds, we consider here the only class of examples which admit a four-dimensional group of isometries but are neither Lorentzian Bianchi-Cartan-Vranceanu spaces nor plane…
The development of projective invariant Weyl metrics in this paper offers a fresh perspective, as we establish the characteristics of both weakly-Weyl and generalized weakly-Weyl Finsler metrics. We thoroughly examine the connections…
In previous work, we associated to $\textrm{SU(3)}$, $\mathrm{G}_2$, and $\textrm{Spin(7)}$-structures minimal left ideals for the Clifford algebras $\mathbb{R}_{0,6},\mathbb{R}_{0,7}$, and $\mathbb{R}_{0,8}$, respectively. In this paper,…
We prove that a complete noncompact K\"ahler surface with positive and bounded sectional curvature is biholomorphic to $\mathbb{C}^2$. This result confirms a special case of Yau's conjecture that a complete noncompact K\"ahler $n$-manifold…
A diffeological space is a set equipped with a smooth structure, known as a diffeology, which allows us to extend certain notions from manifolds to these more general spaces. We study a generalized notion of tangent space to a point of a…
In this paper, we study orientable hypersurfaces $N$ in Riemannian manifolds $(M,\langle , \rangle)$ for which the inner product $\langle U, \mathcal{V} \rangle$ is constant, where $U$ is the unit normal vector field to $N$ and…
In 2004, Manning showed that the topological entropy of the geodesic flow of a closed surface of non-constant negative curvature is strictly decreasing along the normalized Ricci flow, and he asked if an analogous result holds in higher…
Contrast functions play a fundamental role in information geometry, providing a means for generating the geometric structures of a statistical manifold: a pseudo-Riemannian metric and a pair of torsion-free conjugate affine connections.…
We prove a limit curve theorem for incomplete metric spaces. Our main application is to Sormani and Vegas' null distance, where our results give strong control on the Lorentzian lengths of limit curves. We also show that regular…
This thesis revolves around the Stolz' positive scalar curvature sequence: in particular adapted to the context of (G, F)-spaces, i.e. proper G-spaces with isotropy groups belonging to a family F of subgroups of G, and to that of manifolds…
This paper introduces the framework of (local) toric separable geometries, where toric separable K\"ahler geometries come in families, each uniquely determined by an underlying factorization structure. This unifying framework captures all…
The BRIDGES meeting in gauge theory, extremal structures, and stability was held June 2024 at l'Institut d'\'Etudes Scientifiques de Carg\`ese in Corsica, organized by Daniele Faenzi, Eveline Legendre, Eric Loubeau, and Henrique S\'a Earp.…
The main purpose of current article is to study the geometry of $Q$-curvature. For simplicity, we start with a simple model: a complete and conformal metric $g=e^{2u}|dx|^2$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$. Assuming that the metric $g$ has non-negative…
Our outcome is structured in the following sequence: (1) a general result for indefinite Finslerian manifolds with boundary $(M,L)$ showing the equivalence between local and infinitesimal (time, light or space) convexities for the boundary…
Recent interest among geometers in $f$-structures of K. Yano is due to the study of topology and dynamics of contact foliations and generalized A. Weinstein conjectures. Weak metric $f$-structures, introduced by the author and R. Wolak as a…
The present paper, which is partially a review, but also contains several completely new results, aims at presenting, in a unified mathematical framework, a complex and articulated lore regarding non-compact symmetric spaces, with negative…
We study the action on currents and differential forms on compact Riemannian manifolds under $C^0$-limits of diffeomorphisms. Using tools from geometric analysis, measure theory, and homotopy theory, we establish several convergence…
Generalizing previous results of Arezzo-Pacard-Singer, Seyyedali-Sz\'ekelyhidi and Hallam, we prove the invariance under smooth blowups of the class of weighted extremal K\"ahler manifolds, modulo a log-concavity assumption on the first…
We study geometry of curves passing through a Whitney umbrella by using a Darboux frame along it. We define three invariants by using Frenet-Serre type formula relating to the geodesic curvature, the normal curvature, and the geodesic…
We provide some obstructions to the prescribed Q-curvature problem for the complete conformal metrics on $\mathbb{R}^n$ with finite total Q-curvature. One of them is a Bonnet-Mayer type theorem with respect to Q-curvature. Others are…
