Let $S$ be the 2-sphere and $V \subset S$ be a finite set of at least three points. We show that for each function $\kappa: V \rightarrow (0, 2\pi)$ satisfying elementary necessary conditions, in each discrete conformal class of spherical…
Let $M$ be a $2$-space form. Let $P$ be a convex polygon in $M$. For these polygons, we define (and justify) a curvature $\kappa_i$ at each vertex $A_i$ of the polygon and and prove the following Blaschke's type theorem: If $P$ is a convex…
The Dehn function of a metric space measures the area necessary in order to fill a closed curve of controlled length by a disc. As a main result, we prove that a length space has curvature bounded above by $\kappa$ in the sense of…
We show that the prescribed Gaussian curvature equation in $\mathbb{R}^2$ $$-\Delta u= (1-|x|^p) e^{2u},$$ has solutions with prescribed total curvature equal to $\Lambda:=\int_{\mathbb{R}^2}(1-|x|^p)e^{2u}dx\in \mathbb{R}$, if and only if…
We study Maxwell's equations on a 4-manifold where the electromagnetic medium is described by an antisymmetric $2\choose 2$-tensor $\kappa$. In this setting, the Tamm-Rubilar tensor density determines a polynomial surface of fourth order in…
Using the Blaschke-Berwald metric and the affine shape operator of a hypersurface M in the (n+1)-dimensional real affine space we can define some generalized curvature tensor named the Opozda-Verstraelen affine curvature tensor. In this…
We prove that any metric with curvature $\leq -1$ (in the sense of A. D. Alexandrov) on a closed surface of genus $>1$ is isometric to the induced intrinsic metric on a space-like convex surface in a Lorentzian manifold of dimension $(2+1)$…
Suppose that $S^n$ is given a generic Riemannian metric with sectional curvatures which satisfy a suitable pinching condition formulated in terms of complex sectional curvatures. This pinching condition is satisfied by manifolds whose real…
Real-valued triplet of scalar fields as source gives rise to a metric which tilts the scalar, not the light cone, in 2+1-dimensions. The topological metric is static, regular and it is characterized by an integer $\kappa =\pm 1,\pm 2,...$.…
Let \((M^n,g)\) be a smooth closed Riemannian manifold of dimension \(n \ge 5\) with positive Yamabe invariant and semi-positive \(Q\)-curvature. We establish a precompactness result in the \(C^{\alpha}\)-H\"older topologie on the space of…
In this article, we first show that for all compact Riemannian manifolds with non-empty smooth boundary and dimension at least 3, there exists a metric, pointwise conformal to the original metric, with constant scalar curvature in the…
Given a metric $\gamma$ of nonnegative Gauss curvature and a positive function $H$ on a $2$-sphere $\Sigma$, we estimate the Bartnik quasi-local mass of $(\Sigma, \gamma, H)$ in terms of the area, the total mean curvature, and a quantity…
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 study the properties of $\text{CAT}(\kappa)$ surfaces: length metric spaces homeomorphic to a surface having curvature bounded above in the sense of satisfying the $\text{CAT}(\kappa)$ condition locally. The main facts about…
On a compact n-dimensional manifold, it has been conjectured that a critical point metric of the total scalar curvature, restricted to the space of metrics with constant scalar curvature of unit volume, will be Einstein. This conjecture was…
We prove the scalar curvature rigidity for $L^\infty$ metrics on $\mathbb S^n\backslash\Sigma$, where $\mathbb S^n$ is the $n$-dimensional sphere with $n\geq 3$ and $\Sigma$ is a closed subset of $\mathbb S^n$ of codimension at least…
Let $\Omega$ be a domain on the unit $n$-sphere $ \mathbb S^n$ and $\mathring{g}$ the standard metric of $\mathbb S^n$, $n\ge 3$. We show that there exists a conformal metric $g$ with vanishing scalar curvature $R(g)=0$ such that $(\Omega,…
A Finsler space is said to be geodesically reversible if each oriented geodesic can be reparametrized as a geodesic with the reverse orientation. A reversible Finsler space is geodesically reversible, but the converse need not be true. In…
In [7], Guan, Ren and Wang obtained a $C^2$ a priori estimate for admissible 2-convex hypersurfaces satisfying the Weingarten curvature equation $\sigma_2(\kappa(X))=f(X, \nu(X)).$ In this note, we give a simpler proof of this result, and…
We consider the problem of finding on a given Euclidean domain $\Omega$ of dimension $n \geq 3$ a complete conformally flat metric whose Schouten curvature $A$ satisfies some equation of the form $f(\lambda(-A)) = 1$. This generalizes a…
