In this paper, we consider a class of fully nonlinear equations on closed smooth Riemannian manifolds, which can be viewed as an extension of $\sigma_k$ Yamabe equation. Moreover, we prove local gradient and second derivative estimates for…

We prove that for every closed, connected, orientable, irreducible 3-manifold, there exists an alternating group A_n which is not the topological symmetry group of any graph embedded in the manifold. We also show that for every finite group…

We introduce the concept of a Clifford-Weyl structure on a conformal manifold, which consists of an even Clifford structure parallel with respect to the tensor product of a metric connection on the Clifford bundle and a Weyl structure on…

We prove for the automorphism group of an arbitrary parabolic geometry that the $C^0$ and $C^{\infty}$ topologies coincide, and the group admits the structure of a Lie group in this topology. We further show that this automorphism group is…

This is a survey of topological properties of open, complete nonpositively curved manifolds which may have infinite volume. Topics include topology of ends, restrictions on the fundamental group, as well as a review of known examples.

We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for existence of isometric immersions of a simply connected Riemannian manifold into a two-step nilpotent Lie group. This comprises the case of immersions into $H$-type groups.

We prove an extension of Milnor-Wood inequalities to a geometric situation. We study representations of the fundamental group of a compact manifold into the isometry group of a product of rank one spaces of the same dimension and show an…

In this work we find necessary and sufficient conditions for a free nilpotent or a free metabelian nilpotent Lie algebra to be endowed with an ad-invariant metric. For such nilpotent Lie algebras admitting an ad-invariant metric the…

Nilpotent Leibniz algebras with isomorphic maximal subalgebras are considered. The algebras are classified for coclass zero, one, and two. The results are field dependent.

In this paper, we study the coupled Einstein constraint equations on complete manifolds through the conformal method, focusing on non-compact manifolds with flexible asymptotics. This is physically well-motivated by standard cosmological…

Every closed orientable surface S has the following property: any two connected covers of S of the same degree are homeomorphic (as spaces). In this, paper we give a complete classification of compact 3-manifolds with empty or toroidal…

In this article we study the linearized anisotropic Calder\'on problem on a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. This problem amounts to showing that products of pairs of harmonic functions of the manifold form a complete set. We…

Given a simple undirected graph, one can construct from it a $c$-step nilpotent Lie algebra for every $c \geq 2$ and over any field $K$, in particular also over the real and complex numbers. These Lie algebras form an important class of…

A discussion of torsion of Riemannian G-structures leads to a survey of contributions of Alfred Gray and others on almost Hermitian manifolds, G_2-manifolds, curvature identities, volume expansions, plotting geodesics, and the geometry of…

Let X be a smooth, complete, connected submanifold of dimension n < N in a complex affine space A^N (C), and r is the rank of its Gauss map \gamma, \gamma (x) = T_x (X). The authors prove that if 2 \leq r \leq n - 1, N - n \geq 2, and in…

In this paper, we study affine manifolds endowed with linear foliations. These are foliations defined by vector subspaces invariant by the linear holonomy. We show that an $n$-dimensional compact, complete, and oriented affine manifold…

Given a smooth free action of a compact connected Lie group $G$ on a smooth compact manifold $M$, we show that the space of $G$-invariant Riemannian metrics on $M$ whose automorphism group is precisely $G$ is open dense in the space of all…

Anosov diffeomorphisms on closed Riemannian manifolds are a type of dynamical systems exhibiting uniform hyperbolic behavior. Therefore their properties are intensively studied, including which spaces allow such a diffeomorphism. It is…

We prove the existence of compact pseudo-Riemannian manifolds with parallel Weyl tensor which are neither conformally flat nor locally symmetric, and represent all indefinite metric signatures in all dimensions $\,n\ge5$. Until now such…

Recent developments in ergodic theory, additive combinatorics, higher order Fourier analysis and number theory give a central role to a class of algebraic structures called nilmanifolds. In the present paper we continue a program started by…
