In this paper, we revisit the study of almost Ricci-Bourguignon solitons by clarifying their position in the broader context of Einstein-type metrics. Motivated by known rigidity results for compact almost Ricci solitons, we aim to identify…

We study the existence problem for achronal hypersurfaces $M \hookrightarrow \overline{M}$ in a globally hyperbolic spacetime, whose mean curvature is a prescribed -- possibly singular -- source, and whose boundary is a given smooth…

Given a complete Riemannian metric of nonnegative scalar curvature on $\Sigma \times (-\infty, 0 ] $, where $\Sigma$ denotes a $2$-sphere, we exhibit conditions that imply the existence of a closed minimal surface homologous to the…

We derive monotone properties of positive harmonic functions on three dimensional manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature, with an asymptotically flat end. Rigidity characterization of spatial Schwarzschild manifolds with two ends is…

We will present an estimate for the first eigenvalue of the Dirichlet and Neumann problems in terms of the Bakry-\'Emery Ricci curvature for a compact weighted manifold. As an application we will establish a stability condition for a…

Weyls law is a fundamental result governing the asymptotic behaviour of the eigenvalues of teh Laplacian. It states that for a compact d dimensional manifold M (without boundary), the eigenvalue counting function has an asymptotic growth,…

Characteristic class relations in Dolbeault cohomology follow from the existence of a holomorphic Cartan geometry (for example, a holomorphic conformal structure or a holomorphic projective connection). These relations can be calculated…

We study the heterotic G$_2$-system on 7-dimensional 2-step nilmanifolds $M=\Gamma\backslash N$ endowed with principal torus bundles. We first prove that every invariant G$_2$-structure solving the system must be coclosed (under an…

We study the prescribed Lp curvature problem for convex capillary hypersurfaces in the Euclidean half-space. By reducing the problem to finding a convex solution of a Hessian quotient type equation with a Robin boundary condition on a…

We show that singular Riemannian foliations, or, more generally, manifold submetries, defined on a compact normal homogeneous space, have algebraic nature. Moreover, in this case there exists a one-to-one correspondence between algebras of…

Let $M$ be a closed aspherical manifold. Assume that the rational strong Novikov conjecture holds for $\pi_1(M)$. We show that on any spin surgery of $M$ along a region whose induced homomorphism on the fundamental group is trivial, every…

Based on a novel discretization procedure which has recently been proposed and applied in the construction of a canonical discrete analogue of confocal coordinate systems, an explicit method of constructing discrete analogues of ellipsoids…

Using Liu's modular invariance method and its odd-dimensional extension by Han and Yu, we establish new Witten rigidity theorems for the generalized Witten genus of twisted Dirac operators on even-dimensional spin$^c$ manifolds and twisted…

In this paper, an Alexandrov-Fenchel inequality is established for closed $2$-convex spacelike hypersurface in de Sitter space by investigating the behavior of the locally constrained inverse curvature flow \begin{align} \frac{\partial…

Let $M^{n}$, $n\in\{3,4,5\}$, be a closed aspherical $n$-manifold and $S\subset M$ a subset consisting of disjoint incompressible embedded closed aspherical submanifolds (possibly with different dimensions). When $n =3,4$, we show that…

This work is a sequel to our previous monograph arXiv:2010.15789 (to appear in AMS Memoirs), where we initiated our program to prove that the Bogomolov-Miyaoka-Yau inequality holds for closed, symplectic four-manifolds and, more generally,…

We prove for $n\in\{3,4,5\}$ that the connected sum of a closed aspherical $n$-manifold with an arbitrary non-compact manifold does not admit a complete metric with nonnegative scalar curvature. In particular, a special case of our result…

We verify that an isoperimetric minimizing cluster on a simply connected homogeneous Riemannian manifold with at most one end always has connected boundary. In particular, the boundary of a single-bubble isoperimetric minimizer on such…

A Riemannian metric is termed a Hessian metric if in some coordinate system it can be locally represented as the Hessian quadratic form of some locally defined smooth potential function. Under very mild extra technical conditions, we first…

We compute and analyze isotropy subgroups of the complex orthogonal group with respect to the similarity transformation on itself and on skew-symmetric matrices. Their group structure is related to a group of certain nonsingular block…
