Given a generic 2-plane field on a 5-dimensional manifold we consider its (3,2)-signature conformal metric [g] as defined in math.DG/0406400. Every conformal class [g] obtained in this way has very special conformal holonomy: it must be…
On a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary, we study the set of conformal metrics of negative constant scalar curvature in the interior and positive constant mean curvature on the boundary. Working in the case of positive Yamabe…
We study the problem of deforming a Riemannian metric to a conformal one with nonzero constant scalar curvature and nonzero constant boundary mean curvature on a compact manifold of dimension $n\geq 3$. We prove the existence of such…
Conformal geodesics are distinguished curves on a conformal manifold, loosely analogous to geodesics of Riemannian geometry. One definition of them is as solutions to a third order differential equation determined by the conformal…
We use certain Morse functions to construct conformal metrics such that the eigenvalue vector of modified Schouten tensor belongs to a given cone. As a result, we prove that any Riemannian metric on compact 3-manifolds with boundary is…
Consider an asymptotically flat Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ of dimension $n \geq 3$ with nonempty compact boundary. We recall the harmonic conformal class $[g]_h$ of the metric, which consists of all conformal rescalings given by a harmonic…
In this paper, studying the inverse problem, we establish a curvature compatibility condition on a spherically symmetric Finsler metric. As an application, we characterize the spherically symmetric metrics of scalar curvature. We construct…
We prove a generalisation of the $\epsilon$-property, namely that for any dimension and signature, a metric which is not characterised by its polynomial scalar curvature invariants, there is a frame such that the components of the curvature…
The note is about some nonlinear curvature conditions which arise naturally in conformal geometry.
When in general geometric backgrounds the metric is accompanied by torsion, the metric conformal properties should correspondingly be followed by analogous torsional conformal properties; however a combined metric torsional conformal…
Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. This paper addresses the Yamabe-type problem of finding a conformal scalar-flat metric on M, which has the boundary as a constant mean curvature hypersurface. When the boundary is…
This article establishes several remarkably simple identities relating certain metric invariants of level curves of real and complex functions. In particular, we relate lengths of level curves to their curvature and to the gradient field of…
Let M be a compact manifold with boundary. In this paper, we discuss some rigidity theorems of metrics in a same conformal class that fixes the boundary and satisfy certain integral conditions on the the scalar curvatures and the mean…
We present a geometric construction and characterization of $2n$-dimensional split-signature conformal structures endowed with a twistor spinor with integrable kernel. The construction is regarded as a modification of the conformal…
In this paper, we use less topological restrictions and more geometric and analytic conditions to obtain some sufficient conditions on Yamabe solitons such that their metrics are Yamabe metrics, that is, metrics of constant scalar…
On a compact three-dimensional Riemannian manifold with boundary, we prove the compactness of the full set of conformal metrics with positive constant scalar curvature and constant mean curvature on the boundary. This involves a blow-up…
We use certain Morse functions to construct conformal metrics with negative sectional curvature on locally conformally flat manifolds with boundary. Moreover, without conformally flatness assumption, we also construct conformal metric of…
In this paper, the geometric properties of the conformal metric are studied and its exact solution of the geodesic deviation equation is presented. We also find out the stress-energy tensor of this geometry and compare it with the usual…
The aim of this paper is to develop on the 1-jet space J^1(R, M^n) the Finsler-like geometry (in the sense of distinguished (d-) connection, d-torsions, d-curvatures and some gravitational-like and electromagnetic-like geometrical models)…
We consider conformal deformations within a class of incomplete Riemannian metrics which generalize conic orbifold singularities by allowing both warping and any compact manifold (not just quotients of the sphere) to be the "link" of the…
