We define a metric in the space of positive finite positive measures that extends the 2-Wasserstein metric, i.e. its restriction to the set of probability measures is the 2-Wasserstein metric. We prove a dual and a dynamic formulation and…

For Hermitian connections on a Hermitian complex line bundle over a Riemannian manifold $(X,g)$, we can define the ``volume", which can be considered to be the ``mirror" of the standard volume for submanifolds. We call the critical points…

Let $X$ be a closed, oriented four-manifold containing an embedded sphere with self-intersection number $(-1)$. Suppose that $b_2^+(X) \leq 3$. We show that there exists a Riemannian metric on $X$ such that the cohomology class dual to this…

For a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary, endowed with a magnetic potential $\alpha$, we consider the problem of restoring the metric $g$ and the magnetic potential $\alpha$ from the values of the Ma\~n\'e action potential between…

In this paper we classify all simply connected five dimensional nilpotent Lie groups which admit $(\alpha,\beta)$-metrics of Berwald and Douglas type defined by a left invariant Riemannian metric and a left invariant vector field. During…

In this article, we establish pinching conditions under which all weakly stable Yang-Mills connections on compact manifolds are flat. As a corollary, we provide a dimension-dependent constant $\delta(n)$ and prove that there exist no…

We classify the metric-affine theories of gravitation, in which the metric and the connections are treated as independent variables, by use of several constraints on the connections. Assuming the Einstein-Hilbert action, we find that the…

We study those measures whose doubling constant is the least possible among doubling measures on a given metric space. It is shown that such measures exist on every metric space supporting at least one doubling measure. In addition, a…

We consider four-dimensional, Riemannian metrics for which one or other of the self-dual or anti-self-dual Weyl tensors is type-D and which satisfy the Einstein-Maxwell equations with the corresponding Maxwell field aligned with the type-D…

Pairs of metrics in a two-dimensional linear vector space are considered, one of which is a Minkowski type metric. Their simultaneous diagonalizability is studied and canonical presentations for them are suggested.

We derive a holomorphic anomaly equation for the Vafa-Witten partition function for twisted four-dimensional $\mathcal{N} =4$ super Yang-Mills theory on $\mathbb{CP}^{2}$ for the gauge group $SO(3)$ from the path integral of the effective…

In this note we prove that every metric space $(X, d)$ of asymptotic dimmension at most $n$ is coarsely equivalent to a metric space $(Y, D)$ that satisfies the following property of Nagata: For every $n+2$ points $y_1,..., y_{n+2}$ in $Y$…

We investigate plane-parallel wave metrics from the point of view of their (Poisson-Lie) T-dualizability. For that purpose we reconstruct the metrics as backgrounds of nonlinear sigma models on Lie groups. For construction of dual…

Let (E,D,P) be a flat vector bundle with a parabolic structure over a punctured Riemann surface, (M,g). We consider a deformation of the harmonic metric equation which we call the Poisson metric equation. This equation arises naturally as…

A formulation of linearized gravity which is manifestly invariant under electric-magnetic duality rotations in the internal space of the metric and its dual, and which contains both metrics as basic variables (rather than the corresponding…

We use the framework of asymptotic safety above the Planck scale to constrain the parameter space of simple models of new physics that can accommodate the measured value of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon and the relic density of…

An $(\alpha,\beta)$-metric is defined by a Riemannian metric $\alpha$ and $1$-form $\beta$. In this paper, we study a known class of two-dimensional $(\alpha,\beta)$-metrics of vanishing S-curvature. We determine the local structure of…

A distance function on the set of physical equivalence classes of Yang-Mills configurations considered by Feynman and by Atiyah, Hitchin and Singer is studied for both the $2+1$ and $3+1$-dimensional Hamiltonians. This set equipped with…

We propose a novel type of duality that connects a sequence of well-known theories with even-multiplicity scalar amplitudes: it relates the Yang-Mills theory coupled to a specific scalar matter sector to the nonlinear sigma model on a…

In this paper, we mainly study left invariant pseudo-Riemannian Ricci-parallel metrics on connected Lie groups which are not Einstein. Following a result of Boubel and B\'{e}rard Bergery, there are two typical types of such metrics, which…
