In this paper, we consider the Donaldson gauge functional and the twisted Aubin functionals on almost K\"ahler manifolds. As in K\"ahler geometry, we generalize the inequality between Aubin functionals.

We show that small perturbations of the metric of a ball in Euclidean n-space to metrics with nonpositive curvature do not reduce the isoperimetric ratio. Furthermore, the isoperimetric ratio is preserved only if the perturbation…

We study the maximum ratio of the Euclidean norm to the comass norm of p-covectors in Euclidean n-space and improve the known upper bound found in the standard references by Whitney and Federer. We go on to prove stable systolic…

I review the twistor theory construction of stationary and axisymmetric, Lorentzian signature solutions of the Einstein vacuum equations and the related toric Ricci-flat metrics of Riemannian signature, \cite{W,MW,F,FW}. The construction…

We develop a formula for the equivariant index of a twisted Dirac operator on a compact globally hyperbolic spacetime with timelike boundary on which a group acts isometrically, subject to APS boundary conditions. The formula is the same as…

Motivated by recent developments in the theory of gravitation, we revisit the idea of topological variations, originally introduced by Wheeler and Hawking, from a rigorous perspective. Starting from a localized version of the…

We investigate the global topology of 3-dimensional Hessian manifolds. We prove that any compact, orientable 3-dimensional Hessian manifold is either a Hantzsche-Wendt manifold or admits the structure of a K\"ahler mapping torus. We analyze…

We establish analytic linearization of s-proper analytic groupoids around invariant submanifolds. We apply this result to show that any such groupoid admits a holomorphic extension.

Hausdorff Morita equivalence is an equivalence relation on singular foliations, which induces a bijection between their leaves. Our main statement is that linearizability along a leaf is invariant under Hausdorff Morita equivalence. The…

In this article, we study a locally constrained mean curvature flow for star-shaped hypersurfaces with capillary boundary in the half-space. We prove its long-time existence and the global convergence to a spherical cap. Furthermore, the…

In this paper, we first introduce quermassintegrals for capillary hypersurfaces in the half-space. Then we solve the related isoperimetric type problems for the convex capillary hypersurfaces and obtain the corresponding Alexandrov-Fenchel…

In this paper, we first introduce the quermassintegrals for convex hypersurfaces with capillary boundary in the unit Euclidean ball $\mathbb{B}^{n+1}$ and derive its first variational formula. Then by using a locally constrained nonlinear…

In this paper, we study a mean curvature type flow with capillary boundary in the unit ball. Our flow preserves the volume of the bounded domain enclosed by the hypersurface, and monotonically decreases an energy functional $E$. We show…

In this paper, we develop and introduce a Casorati inequality for Riemannian submersions involving the Casorati curvatures of both the vertical and horizontal distributions. A general form of the inequality is derived for Riemannian…

We introduce a notion of nondegenerate neck pinch singularity along the Lagrangian mean curvature flow of surfaces in a Calabi-Yau surface. We show that such singularities can occur, are stable under small perturbations, and any neck pinch…

We study Gromov's problem concerning minimal normal curvature immersions in the unit ball. In particular, we determine the minimal possible value of the normal curvature of an $S^n\times S^1$. We also prove a differentiable sphere theorem…

In this article, we establish pinching conditions under which all weakly stable Yang-Mills connections on compact manifolds are flat. As a corollary, we provide a dimension-dependent constant $\delta(n)$ and prove that there exist no…

We prove a precompactness theorem for invariant metrics on compact homogeneous spaces without injectivity radius bounds, assuming uniform bounds on the diameter and on all derivatives of the curvature tensor. As a consequence, we prove that…

We construct a class of Lorentzian harmonic maps into the de-Sitter $2$-space satisfying the eigenvalue equation $\Box N=2H^2N$ for the d'Alambert operator $\Box$ and a non-zero constant $H$ from framed null curves. We also investigate two…

Timelike minimal surfaces in the three-dimensional Lorentzian Heisenberg group are shown to be constructed from Lorentzian harmonic maps into the de-Sitter two-sphere, and they naturally admit singular points. In particular, we provide…
