We prove that complete Riemannian manifolds of dimension $n\ge3$ with harmonic curvature and $\frac{n(n+2)}{2(n+1)}$-nonnegative curvature operator of the second kind must be Einstein. In particular, We show that complete Einstein manifolds…
We show that compact, $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds with $\frac{n+2}{2}$-nonnegative curvature operators of the second kind are either rational homology spheres or flat. More generally, we obtain vanishing of the $p$-th Betti number…
We prove that a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension $n\ge 8$ with harmonic Weyl curvature and $\frac{3(n-1)(n+2)}{4(3n-1)}$-nonnegative curvature operator of the second kind is either globally conformally equivalent to a space of…
We prove that a compact Einstein manifold of dimension $n\geq 4$ with nonnegative curvature operator of the second kind is a constant curvature space by Bochner technique. Moreover, we obtain that compact Einstein manifolds of dimension…
We investigate the curvature operator of the second kind on product Riemannian manifolds and obtain some optimal rigidity results. For instance, we prove that the universal cover of an $n$-dimensional non-flat complete locally reducible…
We investigate the curvature operator of the second kind on Riemannian manifolds and prove several classification results. The first one asserts that a closed Riemannian manifold with three-positive curvature operator of the second kind is…
It is established in [6, 14, 23] that any closed Einstein manifold with two-nonnegative curvature operator of the second kind is either flat or a round sphere. In this paper, we refine this result by relaxing the curvature condition to a…
This article aims to investigate the curvature operator of the second kind on K\"ahler manifolds. The first result states that an $m$-dimensional K\"ahler manifold with $\frac{3}{2}(m^2-1)$-nonnegative (respectively,…
We associate to any Riemannian symmetric space (of finite or infinite dimension) a L$^*$-algebra, under the assumption that the curvature operator has a fixed sign. L$^*$-algebras are Lie algebras with a pleasant Hilbert space structure.…
We show that a closed four-manifold with $4\frac{1}{2}$-positive curvature operator of the second kind is diffeomorphic to a spherical space form. The curvature assumption is sharp as both $\mathbb{CP}^2$ and $\mathbb{S}^3 \times…
A well-known result asserts that any isometric immersion with flat normal bundle of a Riemannian manifold with constant sectional curvature into a space form is (at least locally) holonomic. In this note, we show that this conclusion…
The holonomy algebras of Einstein not Ricci-flat pseudo-Riemannian manifolds of arbitrary signature are classified. As illustrating examples, the cases of Lorentzian manifolds, pseudo-Riemannian manifolds of signature $(2,n)$ and the…
We classify those curvature-homogeneous Einstein four-manifolds, of all metric signatures, which have a complex-diagonalizable curvature operator. They all turn out to be locally homogeneous. More precisely, any such manifold must be either…
Using Bochner techniques, we prove that a compact Einstein manifold of dimension $n \ge 4$ has constant curvature provided that the curvature operator of the second kind satisfies a cone condition that is strictly weaker than nonnegativity.…
In 2014, Gromov asked if nonnegative scalar curvature is preserved under intrinsic flat convergence. Here we construct a sequence of closed oriented Riemannian $n$-manifolds, $n\geq 3$, with positive scalar curvature such that their…
We study oriented Riemannian $4n$-manifolds whose Thorpe $2n^{\text{th}}$ curvature operator $\hat{R}_{2n}\colon\Lambda^{2n} \longrightarrow \Lambda^{2n}$, or its Weyl analogue $\hat{W}_{2n}$, commutes with the Hodge star. For pure…
In this paper we prove that the holonomy group of a simply connected locally projectively flat Finsler manifold of constant curvature is a finite dimensional Lie group if and only if it is flat or it is Riemannian.
For k at least 2, we exhibit complete k-curvature homogeneous neutral signature pseudo-Riemannian manifolds which are not locally affine homogeneous (and hence not locally homogeneous). The curvature tensor of these manifolds is modeled on…
In this short note, as a simple application of the strong result proved recently by B\"ohm and Wilking, we give a classification on closed manifolds with 2-nonnegative curvature operator. Moreover, by the new invariant cone constructions of…
Quantisation on spaces with properties of curvature, multiple connectedness and non orientablility is obtained. The geodesic length spectrum for the Laplacian operator is extended to solve the Schroedinger operator. Homotopy fundamental…
