We study the uniqueness problem for the K\"ahler-Ricci flow with a conical initial condition. Given a complete gradient expanding K\"ahler-Ricci soliton on a non compact manifold with quadratic curvature decay, including its derivatives, we…

In this paper, we study the fundamental group of the complete steady gradient Ricci soliton with nonnegative sectional curvature. We prove that the fundamental group of such a Ricci soliton is either trivial or infinite. As a corollary, we…

We prove that the existence of a $Z$-positive and $Z$-critical Hermitian metric on a rank 2 holomorphic vector bundle over a compact K\"ahler surface implies that the bundle is $Z$-stable. As particular cases, we obtain stability results…

Motivated by the problem of finding constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metrics, we investigate a Ricci iteration sequence of Rubinstein that discretizes the pseudo-Calabi flow. While the long time existence of the flow is still an open…

We introduce a construction for a Cartan geometry that captures the local behavior of a given geometric automorphism near a distinguished element. The result of this construction, which we call the sprawl generated by the automorphism, is…

The Futaki invariant is a fundamental tool in K\"ahler geometry representing an obstruction to the existence of K\"ahler-Einstein metrics. Recently, it was generalized to compact complex manifolds. In this paper, we prove that it vanishes…

The mean exit time function defined on the $\delta$-tube around any equator $\mathbb{S}^{n-1} \subseteq \mathbb{S}^{n}$ of the sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n}$, ($0<\delta<\pi/2$), goes to infinity with the dimension, so that when we consider a…

The goal of this paper is to develop a theory of "sublinearly Morse boundary" and prove a corresponding sublinearly Morse lemma in higher rank symmetric space of non-compact type. This is motivated by the work of Kapovich-Leeb-Porti and the…

By Perelman's $\mathcal L$-geodesic theory, we study the blow-down solutions on a noncompact $\kappa$-noncollapsed steady gradient Ricci soliton $(M^n, g)$ $(n\ge 4)$ with nonnegative curvature operator and positive Ricci curvature away…

We study inverse problems in anisotropic elasticity using tools from algebraic geometry. The singularities of solutions to the elastic wave equation in dimension $n$ with an anisotropic stiffness tensor have propagation kinematics captured…

Extending a recent theory developed on compact K\"ahler manifolds by Guedj-Lu-Zeriahi and the author, we define and study pluripotential solutions to degenerate parabolic complex Monge-Amp\`ere equations on compact Hermitian manifolds.…

In this note we use classical tools from min-max and hyperbolic geometry to substantiate a folklore example in Almgren--Pitts min-max theory, the three-legged starfish metric on a 2-sphere, whose systolic length, Almgren--Pitts width, and…

We prove that in the unit ball of $\mathbb{R}^4$, there is no complete two-sided stable free boundary immersion. The result follows from a rigidity theorem of complete free boundary minimal hypersurfaces in complete 4-manifolds with…

We introduce a new class of singular complex manifolds and we develop a degenerate Kodaira-Hodge theory for this class of singular manifolds.

Utilizing the covariant formulation of Penrose's plane wave limit by Blau et~al., we construct for any semi-Riemannian metric $g$ a family of "plane wave limits." These limits are taken along any geodesic of $g$, yield simpler metrics of…

In this paper, we consider the parabolic frequency for positive solutions of two nonlinear parabolic equations under the Ricci flow on closed manifolds. We obtain the monotonicity of parabolic frequency for the solution of two nonlinear…

This article is concerned with the stability of triharmonic maps and in particular triharmonic hypersurfaces. After deriving a number of general statements on the stability of triharmonic maps we focus on the stability of triharmonic…

In this paper, we prove that any bubble-sheet oval for the mean curvature flow in $\mathbb{R}^4$, up to scaling and rigid motion, either is the $\textrm{O}(2)\times \textrm{O}(2)$-symmetric ancient oval constructed by Hershkovits and the…

We show that the Weyl law for the volume spectrum in a compact Riemannian manifold conjectured by Gromov can be derived from parametric generalizations of two famous inequalities: isoperimetric inequality and coarea inequality. We prove two…

We consider geodesic nets (critical points of a length functional on the space of embedded graphs) on doubled polygons (topological 2-spheres endowed with a flat metric away from finitely many cone singularities). We use the theorem of…
