Given a closed contact 3-manifold with a compatible Riemannian metric, we show that if the sectional curvature is 1/4-pinched, then the contact structure is universally tight. This result improves the Contact Sphere Theorem in [EKM12],…

Following P. M. H. Wilson's paper on sectional curvatures of Kahler moduli, we consider a natural Riemannian metric on a hypersurface f=1 in a real vector space, defined using the Hessian of a homogeneous polynomial f. We give examples to…

We find new obstructions to the existence of complete Riemannian metric of nonnegative sectional curvature on manifolds with infinite fundamental groups. In particular, we construct many examples of vector bundles whose total spaces admit…

We give examples of pinched negatively curved manifolds for which the Ricci flow does not converge smoothly.

We relate the positivity of the curvature term in the Weitzenbock formula for the Laplacian on p-forms on a complete manifold to the existence of bounded and $L^2$ harmonic forms. In the case where the manifold is the universal cover of a…

A Riemannian metric on a compact 4-manifold is said to be Bach-flat if it is a critical point for the L2-norm of the Weyl curvature. When the Riemannian 4-manifold in question is a Kaehler surface, we provide a rough classification of…

In this note, we show that the weighted mass of Baldauf and Ozuch (2022) can be derived as a natural geometric mass invariant following Michel (2011), for a certain weighted curvature map. An associated weighted centre of mass definition is…

We extend Tsuji's iterative construction of complete K\"ahler--Einstein metrics with negative scalar curvature to noncompact K\"ahler manifolds with bounded geometry, using Berndtsson's method from the compact setting. Consequently, given a…

We prove a non-vanishing result for the $L_{q,p}$-cohomology of complete simply-connected Riemannian manifolds with pinched negative curvature.

In this note we extend a recent result of S. Brendle [3] to Riemannian manifolds with densities and nonnegative Bakry-\'Emery Ricci curvature.

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…

We study curvature invariants of a sub-Riemannian manifold (i.e., a manifold with a Riemannian metric on a non-holonomic distribution) related to mutual curvature of several pairwise orthogonal subspaces of the distribution, and prove…

Given any integer $n\geq 2$, we construct a compact K\"ahler-Einstein manifold of dimension n of negative sectional curvature which is not covered by the ball.

We prove several finiteness results for the class $M_{a,b,G,n}$ of $n$-manifolds that have fundamental groups isomorphic to $G$ and that can be given complete Riemannian metrics of sectional curvatures within $[a,b]$ where $a\le b<0$. In…

One says that a Riemannian four-manifold is \emph{weakly Einstein} if the three-index contraction of its curvature tensor against itself equals a function times the metric. Since this includes all four-manifolds that are Einstein, or…

We introduce a property of compact complex manifolds under which the existence of balanced metric is stable by small deformations of the complex structure. This property, which is weaker than the $\partial\overline\partial$-Lemma, is…

In this paper, we establish sharp inequalities for four kinds of classical eigenvalues on a bounded domain of a Riemannian manifold. We also establish asymptotic formulas for the eigenvalues of the buckling and clamped plate problems. In…

We report on some recent progress achieved in [arXiv:2111.14811] on the ergodicity of the frame flow of negatively-curved Riemannian manifolds. We explain the new ideas leading to ergodicity for nearly $0.25$-pinched manifolds and give…

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a set of left invariant metrics on a compact Heisenberg manifold to be relatively compact in the corresponding moduli space.

In this paper we consider the uniqueness problem of the constant mean curvature spheres in asymptotically flat 3-manifolds. We require the metric have the form g_{ij}=\delta_{ij}+h_{ij} with h_{ij}=O_{4}(r^{-1}) and R=O(r^{-3-\tau}),\tau>0.…
