Study characterizes naturally reductive metrics on homogeneous manifolds.

New expanders for mean curvature flow contradict genus-reduction conjecture.

We consider dimension reduction for solutions of the Kähler-Ricci flow with nonegative bisectional curvature. When the complex dimension $n=2$, we prove an optimal dimension reduction theorem for complete translating Kähler-Ricci solitons with nonnegative bisectional curvature. We also prove a general dimension reducti…

Study flag curvature in homogeneous Finsler spaces with a specific metric.

The study proves a rigidity theorem for compact manifolds with boundary.

We discuss Levi-Civita connections on Courant algebroids. We define an appropriate generalization of the curvature tensor and compute the corresponding scalar curvatures in the exact and heterotic case, leading to generalized (bosonic) Einstein-Hilbert type of actions known from supergravity. In particular, we carefull…

We study the problem of prescribing the Ricci curvature in the class of naturally reductive metrics on a compact Lie group. We derive necessary as well as sufficient conditions for the solvability of the equations and provide a series of examples.

In the present paper we study naturally reductive homogeneous $(α,β)$-metric spaces. Under some conditions, we give some necessary and sufficient conditions for a homogeneous $(α,β)$-metric space to be naturally reductive. Then we show that for such spaces the two definitions of naturally reductive homogeneous Finsler …

We present a reduction of codimension theorem for surfaces with parallel mean curvature in symmetric spaces.

We discuss a natural extension of the Kähler reduction of Fujiki and Donaldson, which realises the scalar curvature of Kähler metrics as a moment map, to a hyperkähler reduction. Our approach is based on an explicit construction of hyperkähler metrics due to Biquard and Gauduchon. This extension is reminiscent of how o…

Study complex structures and curvature equations on compact manifolds.

Pairs (Hamiltonian system, Lagrangian distribution), called dynamical Lagrangian distributions, appear naturally in Differential Geometry, Calculus of Variations and Rational Mechanics. The basic differential invariants of a dynamical Lagrangian distribution w.r.t. the action of the group of symplectomorphisms of the a…

We study the Jacobi osculating rank of geodesics on naturally reductive homogeneous manifolds and we apply this theory to the 3-dimensional case. Here, each non-symmetric, simply connected naturally reductive 3-manifold can be given as a principal bundle over a surface of constant curvature, such that the curvature of …

Geometrically represents path integral reduction Jacobian for interacting systems.

We complete the reduction of Sasakian manifolds with the non-zero case by showing that Willett's contact reduced space is compatible with the Sasakian structure. We then prove the compatibility of the non-zero Sasakian (in particular, contact) reduction with the reduction of the Kähler (in particular, symplectic) cone.…

Parallel transport map over reductive spaces is an affine submersion.

We prove that conformally parametrized surfaces in Euclidean space $\Rcubec$ of curvature $c$ admit a symmetry reduction of their Gauss-Codazzi equations whose general solution is expressed with the sixth Painlevé function. Moreover, it is shown that the two known solutions of this type (Bonnet 1867, Bobenko, Eitner an…

The study classifies and constructs examples of surfaces with specific curvature and boundary conditions.

New findings on Codazzi tensors in homogeneous spaces.

The paper explores Lorentzian connections with parallel skew torsion.

We give an elementary construction of symplectic connections through reduction. This provides an elegant description of a class of symmetric spaces and gives examples of symplectic connections with Ricci type curvature, which are not locally symmetric; the existence of such symplectic connections was unknown.

The aim of this paper is to investigate uniqueness of conic constant scalar curvature Kaehler (cscK) metrics, when the cone angle is less than $π$. We introduce a new Hölder space called $\cC^{4,\a,\b}$ to study the regularities of this fourth order elliptic equation, and prove that any $\cC^{2,\a,\b}$ conic cscK metri…

New method for constructing contact Lie systems on various spaces.

This research shows that steady solitons in higher dimensions always reduce at infinity.

We consider natural differential operations acting on sections of tensor vector bundles. Arrising problems can be reformulated as invariant theoretical problems (the IT-reduction). We give examples of usage of the IT-reduction. In particular, on a manifold with a connection and a Poisson structure we construct the cano…

A method, due to Élie Cartan, is used to give an algebraic classification of the non-reductive homogeneous pseudo-Riemannian manifolds of dimension four. Only one case with Lorentz signature can be Einstein without having constant curvature, and two cases with (2,2) signature are Einstein of which one is Ricci-flat. If…

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 trajectories correspond to well-known Delaunay and do Carmo-Dajzcer surfaces (i.e.…

We study an infinite-dimensional hyperkähler reduction introduced by Donaldson and associated with the constant scalar curvature equation on a Riemann surface. It is known that the corresponding moment map equations admit special solutions constructed from holomorphic quadratic differentials. Here we obtain a more gene…

The paper proves the existence of stable spheres in asymptotically flat 3-manifolds.

The nonlinear equations describing all the nonsingular pencils of metrics of constant Riemannian curvature are derived and the integrability of these nonlinear equations by the method of inverse scattering problem is proved. It is proved that all the nonsingular pairs of compatible metrics of constant Riemannian curvat…

In this paper, first we derive an explicit formula for the flag curvature of a homogeneous Finsler space with infinite series $(α, β)$-metric and exponential metric. Next, we deduce it for naturally reductive homogeneous Finsler space with the above mentioned metrics.

G. Tian and S.K. Donaldson formulated a conjecture relating GIT stability of a polarized algebraic variety to the existence of a Kahler metric of constant scalar curvature. In [Don02] Donaldson partially confirmed it in the case of projective toric varieties. In this paper we extend Donaldson's results and computations…

CurvSSL improves SSL by aligning local manifold curvature.

We obtain a reduction of the vectorial Ribaucour transformation that preserves the class of submanifolds of constant sectional curvature of space forms, which we call the $L$-transformation. It allows to construct a family of such submanifolds starting with a given one and a vector-valued solution of a system of linear…

Positive curvature forces foliation leaf spaces to have boundaries.

CAMEL enhances manifold embedding and learning with curvature metrics.

We embed polarised orbifolds with cyclic stabiliser groups into weighted projective space via a weighted form of Kodaira embedding. Dividing by the (non-reductive) automorphisms of weighted projective space then formally gives a moduli space of orbifolds. We show how to express this as a reductive quotient and so a GIT…

We study the global geometry of surfaces in Sasakian space forms whose mean curvature vector is parallel in the normal bundle (these include the Riemannian Heisenberg space of dimension $2n+1$). We prove a codimension reduction theorem. We introduce two holomorphic quadratic differentials on anti-invariant such surface…

Study of hyperkähler reduction on abelian varieties and toric manifolds.

In this article we review the recent results about the flag curvature of invariant Randers metrics on homogeneous manifolds and by using a counter example we show that the formula which obtained for the flag curvature of these metrics is incorrect. Then we give an explicit formula for the flag curvature of invariant Ra…
