We investigate the topology and geometry of compact submanifolds in space forms of nonnegative curvature that satisfy a lower bound on the sectional curvature, depending only on the length of the mean curvature vector of the immersion. We…
The spectral geometry of negatively curved manifolds has received more attention than its positive curvature counterpart. In this paper we will survey a variety of spectral geometry results that are known to hold in the context of…
We give a survey on higher invariants in noncommutative geometry and their applications to differential geometry and topology.
In this paper, I shall demonstrate that sufficiently high-dimensional closed positively-curved Riemannian manifolds are either diffeomorphic to a spherical space form, or isometric to a locally compact rank one symmetric space. This…
This is a revised version of the paper submitted before.
We say that a nonnegatively curved manifold $(M,g)$ has quarter pinched flag curvature if for any two planes which intersect in a line the ratio of their sectional curvature is bounded above by 4. We show that these manifolds have…
These notes are designed for those who either plan to work in differential geometry, or at least want to have a good reason not to do it. We discuss smooth curves and surfaces -- the main gate to differential geometry. We focus on the…
Let $M$ be a compact nonnegatively curved Riemannian manifold admitting an isometric action by a compact Lie group $\mathsf G$ in a way that the quotient space $M/\mathsf G$ has nonempty boundary. Let $\pi : M \to M/\mathsf G$ denote the…
In this paper we try to compare the "horoboundary" of a (not necessarily simply connected) negatively curved complete Riemannian manifold X with the visual one and describe with explicit examples some phenomenoms wich may appear when X is…
We use pinched smooth hyperbolization to show that every closed, nonpositively curved $n$-dimensional manifold $M$ can be embedded as a totally geodesic submanifold of a closed, nonpositively curved $(n+1)$-dimensional manifold $\hat{M}$ of…
We construct a new 7-dimensional manifold with positive sectional curvature which is 2-connected with \pi_3=\Z_2 and admits an isometric group action with one dimensional quotient.
In this paper we study the positivity of the cotangent bundle of projective manifolds. We conjecture that the cotangent bundle is pseudoeffective if and only the manifold has non-zero symmetric differentials. We confirm this conjecture for…
In this paper we study non-negatively curved and rationally elliptic GKM$_4$ manifolds and orbifolds. We show that their rational cohomology rings are isomorphic to the rational cohomology of certain model orbifolds. These models are…
We study a deformation of infinitesimal diffeomorphisms of a smooth manifold. The deformation is based on a general twist. This leads to a differential geometry on a noncommutative algebra of functions whose product is a star-product. The…
This survey aims to provide a guide to the literature on topological 4-manifolds. Foundational theorems on 4-manifolds are stated, especially in the topological category. Precise references are given, with indications of the strategies…
We discuss the cobordism type of spin manifolds with nonnegative sectional curvature. We show that in each dimension $4k \geq 12$, there are infinitely many cobordism types of simply connected and nonnegatively curved spin manifolds.…
In [Bre19], Simon Brendle showed that any compact manifold of dimension $n\geq12$ with positive isotropic curvature and contains no nontrivial incompressible $(n-1)-$dimensional space form is diffeomorphic to a connected sum of finitely…
In this paper, we systematically investigate the geometry and topology of manifolds with integral radial curvature bounds, and obtain many interesting and important conclusions.
Nontrivial infinitesimal bendings for a class of two-dimensional surfaces are constructed. The surfaces considered here are orientable; compact; with boundary; have positive curvature everywhere except at finitely many planar points; and…
In \cite{KP}, the last two authors introduced formal orbifold curves defined over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristics. They studied both \'etale and Nori fundamental group schemes associated to such objects. Our aim…
