For $g\geq 2$, let $\Gamma\subset\mathrm{Sp}(2g,\mathbb{R})$ be a discrete subgroup, which is either a cocompact subgroup or an arithmetic subgroup without torsion elements, and let $\mathbb{H}_{g}$ denote the Siegel upper half space of…

We show that an enlargeable Riemannian metric on a (possibly nonspin) manifold cannot have uniformly positive scalar curvature. This extends a well-known result of Gromov and Lawson to the nonspin setting. We also prove that every…

Recognizing the regime of positive definiteness for a strictly logarithmic covariance kernel, we prove that the small deviations of a related Gaussian multiplicative chaos (GMC) $M_\gamma$ are for each natural dimension $d$ always of…

We clarify the relationship between the null geodesic completeness of an Einstein Lorentz manifold and its conformal Kobayashi pseudodistance. We show that an Einstein manifold has at least one incomplete null geodesic if its…

We provide a characterization for the continuous positive definite kernels on $\mathbb R^d$ that are invariant to linear isometries, i.e. invariant under the orthogonal group $O(d)$. Furthermore, we provide necessary and sufficient…

This note proves that any locally extremal non-self-conjugate geodesic loop in a Riemannian manifold is a closed geodesic. As a consequence, any complete and non-contractible Riemannian manifold with diverging injectivity radii along…

Let $(M^m,g)$ be a m-dimensional complete Riemannian manifold which satisfies the n-Sobolev inequality and on which the volume growth is comparable to the one of $\R^n$ for big balls; if the Hodge Laplacian on 1-forms is strongly positive…

We give a sharp comparison between the spectra of two Riemannian manifolds (Y,g) and (X,g_0) under the following assumptions: (X,g_0) has bounded geometry, (Y,g) admits a continuous Gromov-Hausdorff {\epsilon}-approximation onto (X,g_0) of…

This article is based on a lecture at the Journal of Differential Geometry Conference, Harvard 2017. We discuss closed and torsion-free $G_{2}$-structures on a 7-manifold with boundary, with prescribed $3$-form on the boundary. Much of the…

We obtain restrictions on the topology of a closed connected manifold B that bounds a (possibly noncompact) manifold whose interior V admits a complete Riemannian metric of nonpositive sectional curvature. If G denotes the fundamental group…

Let $(\Sigma_1,g_1)$ and $(\Sigma_2,g_2)$ be connected, complete and orientable Riemannian two manifolds. Consider the two canonical K\"ahler structures $(G^{\epsilon},J,\Omega^{\epsilon})$ on the product 4-manifold $\Sigma_1\times\Sigma_2$…

We study finite G-sets and their tensor product with Riemannian manifolds, and obtain results on isospectral quotients and covers. In particular, we show the following: if M is a compact connected Riemannian manifold (or orbifold) whose…

Given a domain $\Omega$ of a complete Riemannian manifold $\mathcal{M}$ and define $\mathcal{A}$ to be the Laplacian with Neumann boundary condition on $\Omega$. We prove that, under appropriate conditions, the corresponding heat kernel…

The asymptotic structure of the gravitational field of isolated systems has been analyzed in great detail in the case when the cosmological constant $\Lambda$ is zero. The resulting framework lies at the foundation of research in diverse…

On a complete non-compact Riemannian manifold $M$, we prove that a so-called quasi Riesz transform is always $L^p$ bounded for $1<p\leq 2$. If $M$ satisfies the doubling volume property and the sub-Gaussian heat kernel estimate, we prove…

Let (X,g) be a metrically complete, simply connected Riemannian manifold with bounded geometry and pinched negative curvature, i.e. there are constants a>b>0 such that -a^2<K<-b^2 for all sectional curvatures K. Here bounded geometry is…

We show how to build a kernel \[ K_X(x,y)=\sum_{m=0}^Xh(\lambda_m/{\lambda_X})\varphi_m(x)\overline{\varphi_m(y)} \] on a compact Riemannian manifold $M$, which is positive up to a negligible error and such that $K_X(x,x)\approx X$. Here…

In this note, we consider the case where the condition ``constant near infinity" in the definition of $\Lambda^2$-enlargeable manifolds is replaced by the condition ``locally constant near infinity" and prove that a $\Lambda^2$-enlargeable…

This paper investigates the failure of certain metric measure spaces to be infinitesimally Hilbertian or quasi-Riemannian manifolds, by constructing examples arising from a manifold $M$ endowed with a Riemannian metric $g$ that is possibly…

In this paper we show that on a complete Riemannian manifold of negative curvature and dimension $n>1$ every two points which realize a local maximum for the distance function are connected by at least $2n+1$ geometrically distinct geodesic…
