An algebraic curvature tensor is called Osserman if the eigenvalues of the associated Jacobi operator are constant on the unit sphere. A Riemannian manifold is called conformally Osserman if its Weyl conformal curvature tensor at every…

We prove that a potential $q$ can be reconstructed from the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map for the Schrodinger operator $-\Delta_g + q$ in a fixed admissible 3-dimensional Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$. We also show that an admissible metric $g$ in…

The main results on the theory of conformal and almost Grassmann structures are presented. The common properties of these structures and also the differences between them are outlined. In particular, the structure groups of these structures…

Let Pi: M -> B be an onto maximal rank map or a Riemannian submersion between Riemannian manifolds M and B. Initially, we prove necessary and sufficient conditions for any fiber F to be roughly isometric to M. Then, we prove necessary and…

In this paper a thorough study of the normal form and the first integrability conditions arising from {\em bi-conformal vector fields} is presented. These new symmetry transformations were introduced in {\em Class. Quantum…

We prove that if X is a complete geodesic metric space with uniformly generated first homology group and $f: X\to R$ is metrically proper on the connected components and bornologous, then X is quasi-isometric to a tree. Using this and…

We give a condition on the curvature tensors of Riemannian manifolds that admit Lipschitz approximation by polyhedral metrics with curvature bounded below or above. We show that this condition is also sufficient for the existence of local…

Given a closed Riemannian manifold (M, g), there is a partition \Sigma_i of its tangent bundle TM called the focal decomposition. The sets \Sigma_i are closely associated to focusing of geodesics of (M, g), i.e. to the situation where there…

The class of the Riemannian almost product manifolds with nonintegrable structure is considered. Some identities for curvature tensor as certain invariant tensors and quantities are obtained.

In this paper we construct a functor from the category of two-dimensional Riemannian manifolds to the category of three-dimensional manifolds with generalized metric tensors. For each two-dimensional oriented Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ we…

We completely determine, up to homeomorphism, which simply connected compact oriented 4-manifolds admit scalar-flat, anti-self-dual Riemannian metrics. The key new ingredient is a proof that the connected sum of five reverse-oriented…

For a complete Riemannian metric, a pointwise conformal transformation may lead to a complete or incomplete transformed Riemannian metric, depending on the behavior of the conformal factor. We establish conditions on the growth of the…

Finsler metrics are direct generalizations of Riemannian metrics such that the quadratic Riemannian indicatrices in the tangent spaces of a manifold are replaced by more general convex bodies as unit spheres. A linear connection on the base…

Shape spaces are fundamental in a variety of applications including image registration, morphing, matching, interpolation, and shape optimization. In this work, we consider two-dimensional shapes represented by triangular meshes of a given…

In this article, we consider the almost Hermitian structure on $TM$ induced by a pair of a metric and an affine connection on $M$. We find the conditions under which $TM$ admits almost K\"ahler structures, K\"ahler structures and Einstein…

We show that on any Riemannian manifold with H\"older continuous metric tensor, there exists a $p$-harmonic coordinate system near any point. When $p = n$ this leads to a useful gauge condition for regularity results in conformal geometry.…

Let $T_1,\ldots, T_m$ be a family of $d\times d$ invertible real matrices with $\|T_i\|<1/2$ for $1\leq i\leq m$. For ${\bf a}=(a_1,\ldots, a_m)\in {\Bbb R}^{md}$, let $\pi^{\bf a}\colon \Sigma=\{1,\ldots, m\}^{\Bbb N}\to {\Bbb R}^d$ denote…

On a Riemannian surface, the energy of a map into a Riemannian manifold is a conformal invariant functional, and its critical points are the harmonic maps. Our main result is a generalization of this theorem when the starting manifold is…

In this work we study an inverse problem for the minimal surface equation on a Riemannian manifold $(\mathbb{R}^{n},g)$ where the metric is of the form $g(x)=c(x)(\hat{g}\oplus e)$. Here $\hat{g}$ is a simple Riemannian metric on…

The space of the associative commutative hyper complex numbers, H_4, is a 4-dimensional metric Finsler space with the Berwald-Moor metric. It provides the possibility to construct the tensor fields on the base of the analytical functions of…
