The aim of this article is the proof of the following result: Let M be a connected manifold endowed with a regular Cartan geometry modelled on the boundary X of the d-dimensional real (resp. complex, resp. quaternionic, resp. octonionic)…

In this paper, the authors consider leaf spaces of singular Riemannian foliations $\mathcal{F}$ on compact manifolds $M$ and the associated $\mathcal{F}$-basic spectrum on $M$, $spec_B(M, \mathcal{F}),$ counted with multiplicities.…

Using Green's hyperplane restriction theorem, we prove that the rank of a Hermitian form on the space of holomorphic polynomials is bounded by a constant depending only on the maximum rank of the form restricted to affine manifolds. As an…

Given a transportation cost $c: M \times\bar M \to\mathbf{R}$, optimal maps minimize the total cost of moving masses from $M$ to $\bar M$. We find a pseudo-metric and a calibration form on $M\times\bar M$ such that the graph of an optimal…

In this paper, we prove that the class of bi-f-harmonic maps and that of f-biharmonic maps from a conformal manifold of dimension not equal to 2 are the same (Theorem 1.1). We also give several results on nonexistence of proper…

We show that generic rank conditions on the second fundamental form of an isometric immersion $f\colon M^{2n}\to\mathbb{R}^{2n+p}$ of a Kaehler manifold of complex dimension $n\geq 2$ into Euclidean space with low codimension $p$ implies…

This note gives an example of closed smooth manifolds $M$ and $N$ for which the rank of $M\times N$ is strictly greater than $rank M + rank N$.

In the study of holomorphic maps, the term "rigidity" refers to certain types of results that give us very specific information about a general class of holomorphic maps owing to the geometry of their domains or target spaces. Under this…

For a connected locally path-connected topological space $X$ and a continuous function $f$ on it such that its Reeb graph $R_f$ is a finite topological graph, we show that the cycle rank of $R_f$, i.e., the first Betti number $b_1(R_f)$, in…

We define submersions f between manifolds M and N modelled on locally convex spaces. If the range N is finite-dimensional or a Banach manifold, then these coincide with the naive notion of a submersion. We study pre-images of submanifolds…

For a given smooth manifold, we consider the moduli space of Riemannian metrics up to isometry and scaling. One can define a preorder on the moduli space by the size of isometry groups. We call a Riemannian metric that attains a maximal…

Let M be a positive quaternionic Kaehler manifold of dimension 4m. If the isometry group Isom(M) has rank at least m/2 +3, then M is isometric to HP^m or Gr_2(C^{m+2}). The lower bound for the rank is optimal if m is even.

Let X be quasi-isometric to either the mapping class group equipped with the word metric, or to Teichmuller space equipped with either the Teichmuller metric or the Weil-Petersson metric. We introduce a unified approach to study the coarse…

Let M be a smooth compact manifold without boundary. We consider two smooth Sub-Semi-Riemannian metrics on M. Under suitable conditions, we show that they are almost conformally isometric in an Lp sense. Assume also that M carries a…

We study the large scale geometry of the mapping class group, MCG. Our main result is that for any asymptotic cone of MCG, the maximal dimension of locally compact subsets coincides with the maximal rank of free abelian subgroups of MCG. An…

A singular Riemannian foliation $F$ on a complete Riemannian manifold $M$ is called a polar foliation if, for each regular point $p$, there is an immersed submanifold $\Sigma$, called section, that passes through $p$ and that meets all the…

We prove two rigidity theorems for maps between Riemannian manifolds. First, we prove that a Lipschitz map $f:M\to N$ between two oriented Riemannian manifolds, whose differential is almost everywhere an orientation-preserving isometry, is…

In this paper we prove that every Riemannian metric on a locally conformally flat manifold with umbilic boundary can be conformally deformed to a scalar flat metric having constant mean curvature. This result can be seen as a generalization…

Let $(M,g_M,\mathcal F)$ be a closed, connected Riemannian manifold with a Riemannian foliation $\mathcal F$ of nonzero constant transversal scalar curvature. When $M$ admits a transversal nonisometric conformal field, we find some…

We prove that every infinite sequence of skew-symmetric or symmetric matrices M_1, M_2, ... over a fixed finite field must have a pair M_i, M_j (i<j) such that M_i is isomorphic to a principal submatrix of the Schur complement of a…
