We consider conformal metrics of constant curvature 1 on a Riemann surface, with finitely many prescribed conic singularities and prescribed angles at these singularities. Especially interesting case which was studied by C. L. Chai, C. S…

We discuss notions of Gauss curvature and mean curvature for polyhedral surfaces. The discretizations are guided by the principle of preserving integral relations for curvatures, like the Gauss/Bonnet theorem and the mean-curvature force…

Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a smooth Riemann surface foliation on $M \setminus E$, where $M$ is a complex manifold and $E \subset M$ is a closed set. Fix a hermitian metric $g$ on $M \setminus E$ and assume that all leaves of $\mathcal{F}$ are…

We study the local equivalence problems of curves and surfaces in three dimensional Heisenberg group via Cartans method of moving frames and Lie groups, and find a complete set of invariants for curves and surfaces. For surfaces, in terms…

The Yamabe problem concerns finding a conformal metric on a given closed Riemannian manifold so that it has constant scalar curvature. This paper concerns mainly a fully nonlinear version of the Yamabe problem and the corresponding…

In this note, we study Liouville type theorem for conformal Gaussian curvature equation (also called the mean field equation) $$ -\Delta u=K(x)e^u, in R^2 $$ where $K(x)$ is a smooth function on $R^2$. When $K(x)=K(x_1)$ is a sign-changing…

We study higher form Proca equations on Einstein manifolds with boundary data along conformal infinity. We solve these Laplace-type boundary problems formally, and to all orders, by constructing an operator which projects arbitrary forms to…

A class of surfaces-graphs in a Riemannian 3-space with a prescribed projection of one field of principal directions onto a surface $\Pi$ is considered. A problem of determination of such surfaces when both principal curvatures are given…

The problem of prescribing Gaussian curvature on Riemann surface with conical singularity is considered. Let $(\Sigma,\beta)$ be a closed Riemann surface with a divisor $\beta$, and $K_\lambda=K+\lambda$, where…

We establish new sharp inequalities of Poincar\'{e} or log-Sobolev type, on geodesically-convex weighted Riemannian manifolds $(M,\mathfrak{g},\mu)$ whose (generalized) Ricci curvature $Ric_{\mathfrak{g},\mu,N}$ with effective dimension…

Comparisons on $L^{n\over 2}$-norms of scalar curvatures between Riemannian metrics and standard metrics are obtained. The metrics are restricted to conformal classes or under certain curvature conditions.

We prove three theorems about solutions of $\Delta u + e^{2u} = 0$ in the plane. The first two describe explicitly all concave and quasiconcave solutions. The third theorem says that the diameter of the plane with respect to the metric with…

The curvature discussed in this paper is a rather far going generalization of the Riemannian sectional curvature. We define it for a wide class of optimal control problems: a unified framework including geometric structures such as…

We prove a generalization of the classical Gauss-Bonnet formula for a conical metric on a compact Riemann surface provided that the Gaussian curvature is Lebesgue integrable with respect to the area form of the metric. We also construct…

It is shown that the equation which describes constant mean curvature surface via the generalized Weierstrass-Enneper inducing has Hamiltonian form. Its simplest finite-dimensional reduction has two degrees of freedom, integrable and its…

We study Gauss curvature for random Riemannian metrics on a compact surface, lying in a fixed conformal class; our questions are motivated by comparison geometry. Next, analogous questions are considered for the scalar curvature in…

In this paper, we introduce a new discretization of the Gaussian curvature on surfaces, which is defined as the quotient of the angle defect and the area of some dual cell of a weighted triangulation at the conic singularity. A discrete…

We extend the results of Riemannian geometry over finite groups and provide a full classification of all linear connections for the minimal noncommutative differential calculus over a finite cyclic group. We solve the torsion-free and…

We develop a general deformation principle for families of Riemannian metrics on smooth manifolds with possibly non-compact boundary, preserving lower scalar curvature bounds. The principle is used in order to strengthen boundary…

An important problem is to determine under which circumstances a metric on a conformally compact manifold is conformal to a Poincar\'e--Einstein metric. Such conformal rescalings are in general obstructed by conformal invariants of the…
