We study the rigidity of compact submanifolds of Riemannian manifolds of arbitrary codimension that satisfy a sharp pinching condition involving the norm of the second fundamental form and the mean curvature. Without assuming that the…
A.Einstein considered a linear connection $\nabla$ with torsion $T$ on a smooth manifold equipped with a nonsymmetric (0,2)-tensor $G=g+F$, where $g$ is a pseudo-Riemannian metric associated with gravity, and $F\ne0$ is a skew-symmetric…
In this paper, we investigate curvature pinching phenomena in complete non-compact asymptotically conical gradient expanding Ricci solitons and establish several Hamilton-Ivey type curvature pinching estimates. These results are parallel to…
This survey revisits classical results in vector calculus and analysis by exploring a generalised perspective on the exterior derivative, interpreting it as a measure of "infinitesimal flux". This viewpoint leads to a higher-dimensional…
We study (generalized) cones over metric spaces, both in Riemannian and Lorentzian signature. In particular, we establish synthetic lower Ricci curvature bounds \`a la Lott-Villani-Sturm and Ohta in the metric measure case, and \`a la…
We study the isometry groups of (non-compact) Lorentzian manifolds with well-behaved causal structure, aka causal spacetimes satisfying the ``no observer horizons'' condition. Our main result is that the group of time orientation-preserving…
The main goal of this paper is to generalize a part of the relationship between mean curvature and Harder-Narasimhan filtrations of holomorphic vector bundles to arbitrary polarized fibrations. More precisely, for a polarized family of…
We show that submultiplicative norms on section rings of polarised projective manifolds are asymptotically equivalent to sup-norms associated with metrics on the polarisation. We then discuss some applications to the spectral theory of…
This paper is devoted to the study of the asymptotics of Monge-Amp\`ere volumes of direct images associated with high tensor powers of an ample line bundle. We study the leading term of this asymptotics and provide a classification of…
We establish an asymptotic relation between the spectrum of the discrete Laplacian associated to discretizations of a half-translation surface with a flat unitary vector bundle and the spectrum of the Friedrichs extension of the Laplacian…
We study the behavior of the Quillen metric for the family of Riemann surfaces with cusps when the additional cusps are created by degeneration. More precisely, in our previous paper, we've seen that the renormalization of the Quillen…
In this paper, we prove the commutativity between the Pansu pullback of a smooth contact map between Carnot groups and the differentials appearing in the spectral complexes. As a direct application, we also present a way of "lifting" a…
Hamilton's pinching conjecture, that three-dimensional complete non-compact manifolds with pinched Ricci curvature are flat, has recently been resolved using Ricci flow. In this paper we prove a direct analogue of that result in all…
In this article, we investigate the centered isoperimetric inequality on Cartan-Hadamard manifolds endowed with a warped product structure, namely, among all bounded measurable sets of finite perimeter and prescribed volume, the geodesic…
Inspired by the MacDowell-Mansouri formulation of four-dimensional General Relativity, we study a class of four-dimensional gauge-theoretic functionals obtained from the Pontryagin density of a G-connection by inserting, under the trace, a…
We show how permutability of transforms of smooth surfaces with particular characteristics leads to discrete surfaces with discrete analogues of the same characteristics.
We give a differential geometric construction of the holomorphic family of Higgs bundle moduli spaces over a curve C as a fibration over Teichm\"uller space. The method uses a function f defined on the character variety, essentially the…
In this paper we study the behavior of the scalar curvature at infinity on complete noncompact steady gradient Ricci solitons. In dimension four, we assume that the canonical Ricci flow induced by the soliton is a weak $\kappa$-solution and…
Semidefinite programming (SDP) provides a fundamental framework for studying properties of sum-of-squares (sos) representations of nonnegative polynomials. In this paper we study the quartic forms GF = (|x|^4 + F(x))/2 associated with…
We define higher spin Killing spinors on Riemannian spin manifolds in arbitrary dimension and study them in detail in dimension three. We prove a rigidity result for 3-dimensional manifolds admitting higher spin Killing spinors and give…
