We prove a laplacian comparison theorem in the barrier sense for the function distance to the boundary of Riemannian manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature, area and mean curvature of the boundary bounded above. As an application we get…

Any $(d+1)$-dimensional CFT with a $U(1)$ flavor symmetry, a BPS bound and an exactly marginal coupling admits a decoupling limit in which one zooms in on the spectrum close to the bound. This limit is an In\"on\"u-Wigner contraction of…

We show that every quasiconformal contact foliation supports an invariant metric and characterise such foliations by the dynamical property of $C^1$-equicontinuity. We prove that a generalisation of the Weinstein conjecture holds for…

In this work we obtain the limit of the Hawking energy of a large class of foliations along general null hypersurfaces $\Omega$ satisfying a weak notion of asymptotic flatness. The foliations are not required to be either geodesic or…

We discuss various problems regarding the structure of the foliation of some foliated submanifolds S of C^n, in particular Levi flat ones. As a general scheme, we suppose that S is bounded along a coordinate (or a subset of coordinates),…

We construct a foliation of an asymptotically flat end of a Riemannian manifold by hypersurfaces which are critical points of a natural functional arising in potential theory. These hypersurfaces are perturbations of large coordinate…

In general relativity, there have been a number of successful constructions for asymptotically flat metrics with a certain background foliation. In particular, C. -Y. Lin used a foliation by the Ricci flow on 2-spheres to establish an…

The paper is devoted to the problem when a map from some closed connected manifold to an aspherical closed manifold approximately fibers, i.e., is homotopic to Manifold Approximate Fibration. We define obstructions in algebraic K-theory.…

We prove an adiabatic theorem for the non-autonomous Gross-Pitaevskii equation in the case of a weak trap. More precisely, we assume that the external potential decays suitably at infinity and admits exactly one bound state.

We study the resonant prescribed T-curvature problem on a compact 4-dimensional Riemannian manifold with boundary. We derive sharp energy and gradient estimates of the associated Euler-Lagrange functional to characterize the critical points…

In this paper, we study the weak compactness of the set of conformal metrics in any Riemann surface without boundary whose Calabi energy and area are uniformly bounded. We prove that for any sequence of such metrics, there alwasy exists a…

In the conventional quantum mechanics (i.e., hermitian QM) the adia- batic theorem for systems subjected to time periodic fields holds only for bound systems and not for open ones (where ionization and dissociation take place) [D. W. Hone,…

We call a foliation $\mathcal{F}$ on a compact manifold infinitesimally rigid if its deformation cohomology $H^{1}(\mathcal{F},N\mathcal{F})$ vanishes. This paper studies infinitesimal rigidity for a distinguished class of Riemannian…

For a complete Riemannian manifold $M$ with an (1,1)-elliptic Codazzi self-adjoint tensor field $A$ on it, we use the divergence type operator ${L_A}(u): = div(A\nabla u)$ and an extension of the Ricci tensor to extend some major comparison…

We propose a new collapsing mechanism for $G_2$-metrics, with the generic region admitting a circle bundle structure over a K3 fibration over a Riemann surface. The adiabatic description involves a weighted version of the maximal…

We prove a generalised super-adiabatic theorem for extended fermionic systems assuming a spectral gap only in the bulk. More precisely, we assume that the infinite system has a unique ground state and that the corresponding GNS-Hamiltonian…

We study the behaviour of Laplace-type operators H on a complex vector bundle E $\rightarrow$ M in the adiabatic limit of the base space. This space is a fibre bundle M $\rightarrow$ B with compact fibres and the limit corresponds to…

In these notes we survey basic concepts of affine geometry and their interaction with Riemannian geometry. We give a characterization of affine manifolds which has as counterpart those pseudo-Riemannian manifolds whose Levi-Civita…

We establish adiabatic theorems with and without spectral gap condition for general -- typically dissipative -- linear operators $A(t): D(A(t)) \subset X \to X$ with time-independent domains $D(A(t)) = D$ in some Banach space $X$. Compared…

An adiabatic approach is developed for the problem of boundary friction between two atomically smooth and incommensurate solid surfaces, separated by a monolayer of lubricant atoms. This method permits to consider very slow macroscopic…
