We study Riemannian nilmanifolds associated with graphs. We prove that such a nilmanifold is geodesic orbit if and only if it is naturally reductive if and only if its defining graph is the disjoint union of complete graphs and the…
We prove that if a closed Riemannian manifold $(M^n,g)$ has finite fundamental group and satisfies the curvature condition \begin{equation*} R_{1313} +R_{1414} +R_{2323} + R_{2424} > \tfrac{1}{2}\left(R_{1212} + R_{3434}\right)…
On a smooth, closed Riemannian manifold $\left(M,g\right)$ of dimension $n\ge3$, we consider the stationary Schr\"odinger equation $\Delta_gu+h_0u=\left|u\right|^{2^*-2}u$, where $\Delta_g:=-\text{div}_g\nabla$, $h_0\in C^1\left(M\right)$…
We study unimodular measures on the space $\mathcal M^d$ of all pointed Riemannian $d$-manifolds. Examples can be constructed from finite volume manifolds, from measured foliations with Riemannian leaves, and from invariant random subgroups…
This is a collection of notes on the properties of left-invariant metrics on the eight-dimensional compact Lie group SU(3). Among other topics we investigate the existence of invariant pseudo-Riemannian Einstein metrics on this manifold. We…
We define a right-invariant Riemannian metric on the group of contactomorphisms and study its Euler-Arnold equation. If the metric is associated to the contact form, the Euler-Arnold equation reduces to $m_t + u(m) + (n+2) mE(f) = 0$, in…
The geodesics for a sub-Riemannian metric on a three-dimensional contact manifold $M$ form a 1-parameter family of curves along each contact direction. However, a collection of such contact curves on $M$, locally equivalent to the solutions…
We find a necessary condition for the existence of an action of a Lie group $G$ by quaternionic automorphisms on an integrable quaternionic manifold in terms of representations of $\mathfrak{g}$. We check this condition and prove that a…
We show the contractibility of spaces of invariant Riemannian metrics of positive scalar curvature on compact connected manifolds of dimension at least two, with and without boundary and equipped with compact Lie group actions. On manifolds…
We prove that the Euler characteristic of an even-dimensional compact manifold with positive (nonnegative) sectional curvature is positive (nonnegative) provided that the manifold admits an isometric action of a compact Lie group $G$ with…
In this paper, we study the subcritical biharmonic equation \[\Delta ^2 u=u^\alpha\] on a complete, connected, and non-compact Riemannian manifold $(M^n,g)$ with nonnegative Ricci curvature. Using the method of invariant tensors, we derive…
In this paper we prove that every Riemannian metric on a locally conformally flat manifold with umbilic boundary can be conformally deformed to a scalar flat metric having constant mean curvature. This result can be seen as a generalization…
We define a $\mathbb{Q}$-valued deformation invariant of certain complete Riemann-Finsler manifolds, in particular of complete Riemannian manifolds with non positive sectional curvature. It is proved that every rational number is the value…
Motivated by various results on homogeneous geodesics of Riemannian spaces, we study homogeneous trajectories, i.e. trajectories which are orbits of a one-parameter symmetry group, of Lagrangian and Hamiltonian systems. We present criteria…
Given a compact Lie subgroup $G$ of the isometry group of a compact Riemannian manifold $M$ with a Riemannian connection $\nabla,$ it is introduced a $G-$symmetrization process of a vector field of $M$ and it is proved that the critical…
Let $(M,\mathsf{g})$ be a connected and compact Riemannian manifold admitting an isometric action by a compact Lie group $G$ whose principal orbits have codimension one. We show that any $G$-invariant, smooth, and divergence-free vector…
A consistent approach to the description of integral coordinate invariant functionals of the metric on manifolds ${\cal M}_{\alpha}$ with conical defects (or singularities) of the topology $C_{\alpha}\times\Sigma$ is developed. According to…
We prove that the existence of a positively defined, invariant Einstein metric $m$ on a connected homogeneous space $G/H$ of a compact Lie group $G$ is the consequence of non-contractibility of some compact set $C=X_{G,H}^{\Sigma}$ (B\"ohm…
Let L\subset V=\bR^{k,l} be a maximally isotropic subspace. It is shown that any simply connected Lie group with a bi-invariant flat pseudo-Riemannian metric of signature (k,l) is 2-step nilpotent and is defined by an element \eta \in…
In this paper, we discuss the decomposition of a Lie group with a left invariant pseudo-Riemannian metric and the uniqueness. In fact, it is a decomposition of a Lie group into totally geodesic sub-manifolds which is different from the De…
