In this paper, we introduce a new positivity notion for curvature of Riemannian manifolds and obtain characterizations for spherical space forms and the complex projective space $\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^n$.
The question of whether a Sasakian metric can admit an additional compatible (K-)contact structure is addressed. In the complete case if the second structure is also assumed Sasakian, works of Tachibana-Yu and Tanno show that the manifold…
We show that the contact reduction can be specialized to Sasakian manifolds. We link this Sasakian reduction to K\"ahler reduction by considering the K\"ahler cone over a Sasakian manifold. We present examples of Sasakian manifolds obtained…
In this short note we show the following result: Let $(M^{2n+1},g)$ ($n \geq 2$) be a compact Sasaki manifold with positive transverse orthogonal bisectional curvature. Then $\pi_1(M)$ is finite, and the universal cover of $(M^{2n+1},g)$ is…
In a previous paper [BTF21] the authors employed the fiber join construction of Yamazaki [Yam99] together with the admissible construction of Apostolov, Calderbank, Gauduchon, and T{\o}nnesen-Friedman [ACGTF08a] to construct new extremal…
We propose a new approach to the existence of constant transversal scalar curvature Sasaki structures drawing on ideas and tools from the CR Yamabe problem, establishing a link between the CR Yamabe invariant, the existence of Sasaki…
A regularization procedure developed in [1] for the integral curvature invariants on manifolds with conical singularities is generalized to the case of squashed cones. In general, the squashed conical singularities do not have rotational…
In this paper we introduce two new notions of sectional curvature for Riemannian manifolds with density. Under both notions of curvature we classify the constant curvature manifolds. We also prove generalizations of the theorems of…
Let $M$ be a closed manifold of Sasaki type. A polarization of $M$ is defined by a Reeb vector field, and for one such, we consider the set of all Sasakian metrics compatible with it. On this space, we study the functional given by the…
We find some curvature properties of 3-quasi-Sasakian manifolds which are similar to some well-known identities holding in the Sasakian case. As an application, we prove that any 3-quasi-Sasakian manifold of constant horizontal sectional…
A transformation based on mean curvature is introduced which morphs triangulated surfaces into round spheres.
The purpose of this paper is to study the Sasakian geometry on odd dimensional sphere bundles over a smooth projective algebraic variety $N$ with the ultimate, but probably unachievable goal of understanding the existence and non-existence…
We study (transverse) scalar curvature type equation on compact Sasaki manifolds, in view of recent breakthrough of Chen-Cheng \cite{CC1, CC2, CC3} on existence of K\"ahler metrics with constant scalar curvature (csck) on compact K\"ahler…
In this paper paraSasakian manifolds with a constant paraholomorphic section curvature are considered.
Some new Kasami type codes of higher relative dimension is introduced. Their weight distribution is determined.
In this work, we present a new geometric transition in non-compact Calabi-Yau 4-folds, specifically for the cone over the 7d Sasaki-Einstein manifold $Q^{\scriptscriptstyle(1,1,1)}/\mathbb{Z}_{N}$. We discover a new smoothing of such…
This is an expository paper describing the geometry of certain Sasakian-Einstein manifolds. Such manifolds have recently become of interest due to Maldacena's AdS/CFT conjecture. They describe near-horizon geometries of branes at conical…
In this paper we study sectional curvature bounds for Riemannian manifolds with density from the perspective of a weighted torsion free connection introduced recently by the last two authors. We develop two new tools for studying weighted…
This article is a survey of recent results about scalar curvature and contractible open $3$-manifolds. It is dedicated to the memory of Professor S. S. Chern.
In this paper, we first give some new characterizations of geodesic spheres in the hyperbolic space by the condition that hypersurface has constant weighted shifted mean curvatures, or constant weighted shifted mean curvature ratio, which…
