In this note, we look at estimates for the scalar curvature k of a Riemannian manifold M which are related to spin^c Dirac operators: We show that one may not enlarge a Kaehler metric with positive Ricci curvature without making k smaller…

In this paper we prove localised weighted curvature integral estimates for solutions to the Ricci flow in the setting of a smooth four dimensional Ricci flow or a closed $n$-dimensional K\"ahler Ricci flow. These integral estimates improve…

Let (M,g) be a complete noncompact riemannian manifold with bounded geometry and parallel Ricci curvature. We show that some operators, "affine" relatively to the Ricci curvature, are locally invertible, in some classical Sobolev spaces,…

Let $M$ be a complete Riemannian manifold possibly with a boundary $\partial M$. For any $C^1$-vector field $Z$, by using gradient/functional inequalities of the (reflecting) diffusion process generated by $L:=\Delta+Z$, pointwise…

We introduce the weighted orthogonal Ricci curvature -- a two-parameter version of Ni--Zheng's orthogonal Ricci curvature. This curvature serves as a very natural object in the study of the relationship between the Ricci curvature(s) and…

This work proves certain general orbifold compactness results for spaces of Riemannian metrics, generalizing earlier results along these lines for Einstein metrics or metrics with bounded Ricci curvature. This is then applied to prove such…

In this paper, we propose a generalization of the Riemann curvature tensor on manifolds (of dimension two or higher) endowed with a Regge metric. Specifically, while all components of the metric tensor are assumed to be smooth within…

We derive expressions for the Ricci curvature tensor and scalar in terms of intrinsic torsion classes of half-flat manifolds by exploiting the relationship between half-flat manifolds and non-compact $G_2$ holonomy manifolds. Our…

We study critical metrics of the curvature functional $\A(g)=\int_M |R|^2\, \vol$, on complete four-dimensional Riemannian manifolds $(M,g)$ with finite energy, that is, $\A(g)<\infty$. Under the natural inequality condition on the…

We first extend Cheeger-Colding Almost Splitting Theorem to smooth metric measure spaces. Arguments utilizing this extension of the Almost Splitting Theorem show that if a smooth metric measure space has almost nonnegative Bakry-Emery Ricci…

We study the problem of conformally deforming a metric to a prescribed symmetric function of the eigenvalues of the Ricci tensor. We prove an existence theorem for a wide class of symmetric functions on manifolds with positive Ricci…

The geometric description of incompressible hydrodynamics, as geodesic motion on the infinite-dimensional group of volume-preserving diffeomorphisms, enables notions of curvature in the study of fluids in order to study stability. Formulas…

Let $G\curvearrowright M$ be an isometric action of a Lie Group on a complete orientable Riemannian manifold. We disintegrate absolutely continuous measures with respect to the volume measure of $M$ along the principal orbits of…

We use the theory of isoparametric functions to investigate gradient Ricci solitons with constant scalar curvature. We show rigidity of gradient Ricci solitons with constant scalar curvature under some conditions on the Ricci tensor, which…

We consider spaces of smooth immersed plane curves (modulo translations and/or rotations), equipped with reparameterization invariant weak Riemannian metrics involving second derivatives. This includes the full $H^2$-metric without zero…

We present a general numerical method for investigating prescribed Ricci curvature problems on toric K\"ahler manifolds. This method is applied to two generalisations of Einstein metrics, namely Ricci solitons and quasi-Einstein metrics. We…

In this paper we prove mean curvature comparisons and volume comparisons on a smooth metric measure space when the integral radial Bakry-\'Emery Ricci tensor and the potential function or its gradient are bounded. As applications, we prove…

A smooth closed manifold $M$ is called almost Ricci-flat if $$\inf_g||\textrm{Ric}_g||_\infty\cdot \textrm{diam}_g(M)^2=0$$ where $\textrm{Ric}_g$ and $\textrm{diam}_g$ denote the Ricci tensor and the diameter of $g$ respectively and $g$…

We consider a problem of prescribing the partial Ricci curvature on a locally conformally flat manifold $(M^n, g)$ endowed with the complementary orthogonal distributions $D_1$ and $D_2$. We provide conditions for symmetric $(0,2)$-tensors…

Riemannian metrics of positive Ricci curvature were constructed on certain moment-angle manifolds.
