Let $(M,J)$ be a compact complex manifold of complex dimension $m$ and let $g_s$ be a one-parameter family of Hermitian forms on $M$ that are smooth and positive definite for each fixed $s\in (0,1]$ and that somehow degenerates to a…

Given a definite nonnegative matrix $A \in M_n (C)$, we study the minimal index of A: $I(A) = \max \{\lambda \ge 0 : A\circ B \ge \lambda B$ for all $0\le B\}$, where $A\circ B$ denotes the Hadamard product $(A\circ B)_{ij} = A_{ij}…

A Heegaard diagram for a 3-manifold M is a closed, oriented surface S together with a pair (X, Y) of compact 1-manifolds in S whose components serve as attaching curves for the 2-handles of the two sides of a Heegaard splitting for M. The…

Let $X$ be a compact Riemann surface of genus $g \geq 3$. Let $\cat{M}_{Hod}$ denote the moduli space of stable $\lambda$-connections over $X $ and $\cat{M}'_{Hod} \subset \cat{M}_{Hod}$ denote the subvariety whose underlying vector bundle…

We prove that the normal metric on the homogeneous space $E_7/\mathrm{PSO}(8)$ is stable with respect to the Einstein-Hilbert action, thereby exhibiting the first known example of a non-symmetric metric of positive scalar curvature with…

Hilbert initiated the standpoint in foundations of mathematics. From this standpoint, we allow only a finite number of repetitions of elementary operations when we construct objects and morphisms. When we start from a subset of a Euclidean…

We give a new normalization condition for connections on sub-Riemannian manifolds with constant symbols. The condition is formulated in terms of Cartan connections and depends only on the first degree of homogeneity of the curvature. The…

Given an oriented Riemannian surface $(\Sigma, g)$, its tangent bundle $T\Sigma$ enjoys a natural pseudo-K\"{a}hler structure, that is the combination of a complex structure $\J$, a pseudo-metric $\G$ with neutral signature and a symplectic…

Given a flat vector bundle over a compact Riemannian manifold, Corlette and Donaldson proved that it admits harmonic metrics if and only if it is semi-simple. In this paper, we extend this equivalence to arbitrary vector bundles without any…

We investigate four-dimensional Heterotic solitons, defined as a particular class of solutions of the equations of motion of Heterotic supergravity on a four-manifold $M$. Heterotic solitons depend on a parameter $\kappa$ and consist of a…

In this paper, two sequences of minimal isoparametric hypersurfaces are constructed via representations of Clifford algebras. Based on these, we give estimates on eigenvalues of the Laplacian of the focal submanifolds of isoparametric…

In this article we consider solvable hypersurfaces of the form $N \exp(\R H)$ with induced metrics in the symmetric space $M = SL(3,\C)/SU(3)$, where $H$ a suitable unit length vector in the subgroup $A$ of the Iwasawa decomposition…

Let $(M,g)$ be a Riemannian manifold. When $M$ is compact and the tangent bundle $TM$ is equipped with the Sasaki metric $g^s$, the only vector fields which define harmonic maps from $(M,g)$ to $(TM,g^s)$, are the parallel ones. The Sasaki…

We show that, in the unit tangent bundle of a hyperbolic orbisphere with cone points of order 3, 3, 4, the lift of the shortest periodic geodesic is homeomorphic to the complement of the figure-eight knot in the 3-sphere. The proof…

Let $K\backslash G$ be an irreducible Hermitian symmetric space of noncompact type and $\Gamma \,\subset\, G$ a closed torsionfree discrete subgroup. Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold and $\rho\, :\, \pi_1(X, x_0)\,\longrightarrow\,…

This paper is a continuation of math.DG/0408005. We first construct special Lagrangian submanifolds of the Ricci-flat Stenzel metric (of holonomy SU(n)) on the cotangent bundle of S^n by looking at the conormal bundle of appropriate…

Let $\Gamma$ be a chart. For each label $m$, we denote by $\Gamma_m$ the "subgraph" of $\Gamma$ consisting of all the edges of label $m$ and their vertices. Let $\Gamma$ be a minimal chart of type $(m;3,3)$. That is, a minimal chart…

A symplectic semitoric manifold is a symplectic $4$-manifold endowed with a Hamiltonian $(S^1 \times \mathbb{R})$-action satisfying certain conditions. The goal of this paper is to construct a new symplectic invariant of symplectic…

We consider the problem of minimal volume vector fields on a given Riemann surface, specialising on the case of $M^\star$, that is, the arbitrary radius 2-sphere with two antipodal points removed. We discuss the homology theory of the unit…

A submanifold is said to be tangentially biharmonic if the bitension field of the isometric immersion that defines the submanifold has vanishing tangential component. The purpose of this paper is to prove that a surface in Euclidean…
