We solve the local equivalence problem for sub-Riemannian structures on (2n + 1)-dimensional manifolds. We show that two sub-Riemannian structures are locally equivalent if and only if? their corresponding canonical linear connections are…

This article shows that for generic choice of Riemannian metric on a smooth manifold $M$ of dimension four, all prime compact parametrized minimal surfaces within $M$ have self-intersections in general position in the following sense:…

Let $\overline{M}$ be a smooth manifold with boundary $\partial M$ and interior $M$. Consider an affine connection $\nabla$ on $M$ for which the boundary is at infinity. Then $\nabla$ is projectively compact of order $\alpha$ if the…

We investigate the geometry of a twisting non-shearing congruence of null geodesics on a conformal manifold of even dimension greater than four and Lorentzian signature. We give a necessary and sufficient condition on the Weyl tensor for…

We obtain new quantitative estimates on Weyl Law remainders under dynamical assumptions on the geodesic flow. On a smooth compact Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ of dimension $n$, let $\Pi_\lambda$ denote the kernel of the spectral projector…

We show how the rigid conformal supersymmetries associated with a certain class of pseudo-Riemannian spin manifolds define a Lie superalgebra. The even part of this superalgebra contains conformal isometries and constant R-symmetries. The…

We study the natural property of projectability of a torsion-free connection along a foliation on the underlying manifold, which leads to a projected torsion-free connection on a local leaf space, focusing on projectability of Levi-Civita…

On four-dimensional closed manifolds we introduce a class of canonical Riemannian metrics, that we call weak harmonic Weyl metrics, defined as critical points in the conformal class of a quadratic functional involving the norm of the…

We prove an integral formula for the spherical measure of hypersurfaces in equiregular sub-Riemannian manifolds. Among various technical tools, we establish a general criterion for the uniform convergence of parametrized sub-Riemannian…

Let $(M,g)$ be an $n$-dimensional asymptotically flat Riemannian manifold with nonnegative scalar curvature that admits a noncompact area-minimizing hypersurface $\Sigma \subset M$. In the case where $n = 3$, O. Chodosh and the first-named…

Within a framework of noncommutative geometry, we develop an analogue of (pseudo) Riemannian geometry on finite and discrete sets. On a finite set, there is a counterpart of the continuum metric tensor with a simple geometric…

We consider a four dimensional Riemannian manifold M with a metric g and affinor structure q. The local coordinates of these tensors are circulant matrices. Their first orders are (A, B, C, B), A, B, C\in FM and (0, 1, 0, 0), respectively.…

We study the geometric properties of holomorphic distributions of totally null $m$-planes on a $(2m+\epsilon)$-dimensional complex Riemannian manifold $(\mathcal{M}, \bm{g})$, where $\epsilon \in {0,1}$ and $m \geq 2$. In particular, given…

A locally conformally product (LCP) structure on compact manifold $M$ is a conformal structure $c$ together with a closed, non-exact and non-flat Weyl connection $D$ with reducible holonomy. Equivalently, an LCP structure on $M$ is defined…

A projective structure is Weyl metrizable if it has a representative that preserves a conformal structure. We interpret Weyl metrizability of 3-dimensional projective structures as certain 5-dimensional nondegenerate CR submanifolds in a…

All spherically symmetric Riemannian metrics of constant scalar curvature in any dimension can be written down in a simple form using areal coordinates. All spherical metrics are conformally flat, so we search for the conformally flat…

Exploiting the special features of four-dimensional Riemannian geometry, we derive topological and rigidity results for hypersurfaces immersed in space forms of dimension 5. First, we provide a complete description of the Weyl tensor for…

In this work we consider periodic spherically symmetric metrics of constant positive scalar curvature on the n-dimensional cylinder called pseudo-cylindric metrics. These metrics belong to the conformal class $[g_0]$ of the Riemannian…

Let $\pi\cln \cX\to S$ and $\pi\cln \cY\to S$ be two smooth families of projective non-uniruled manifolds over a Riemann surface $S$ (probably non-compact). Suppose these two families are pointwise isomorphic. We prove that there exists an…

We solve the equivalence problem for rank 3 completely nonholonomic vector distributions with 6-dimensional square on a smooth manifold of arbitrary dimension n under very mild genericity conditions. The main idea is to consider the…
