In this article, we thoroughly investigate the stability inequality for Ricci-flat cones.

On the other hand, we prove that many other example…

It is proved that every locally conformal flat Riemannian manifold all of whose Jacobi operators have constant eigenvalues along every geodesic is with constant principal Ricci curvatures.

We prove that if an ALE Ricci-flat manifold $(M,g)$ is linearly stable and integrable, it is dynamically stable under Ricci flow, i.e. any Ricci flow starting close to g exists for all time and converges modulo diffeomorphism to an ALE Ricci-flat metric close to $g$. By adapting Tian's approach in the closed case, we s…

We study a class of asymptotically cylindrical Ricci-flat Kähler metrics arising on quasiprojective manifolds. Using the Calabi--Yau geometry and analysis and the Kodaira--Kuranishi--Spencer theory and building up on results of N.Koiso for the case of compact manifolds, we show that under rather general hypotheses any …

In this paper, we study the geometry of compact complex manifolds with Levi-Civita Ricci-flat metrics and prove that compact complex surfaces admitting Levi-Civita Ricci-flat metrics are Kahler Calabi-Yau surfaces or Hopf surfaces.

The purpose of this paper is to study *-Ricci tensor on Sasakian manifold. Here, φ-confomally flat and confomally flat *-η-Einstein Sasakian manifold are studied.

Let N_0 = C^2/H be an isolated quotient singularity with H in U (2) a finite subgroup. We show that for any Q-Gorenstein smoothings of N_0 a nearby fiber admits ALE Ricci-flat Kahler metrics in any Kahler class.

Flat open manifolds with full first Betti number have zero curvature.

We give topological conditions to ensure that a noncollapsed almost Ricci-flat 4-manifold admits a Ricci-flat metric. One sufficient condition is that the manifold is spin and has a nonzero A-hat genus. Another condition is that the fundamental group is infinite or, more generally, of sufficiently large cardinality.

Using a recently developed piecewise flat method, numerical evolutions of the Ricci flow are computed for a number of manifolds, using a number of different mesh types, and shown to converge to the expected smooth behaviour as the mesh resolution is increased. The manifolds were chosen to have varying degrees of homoge…

We derive expressions for the Ricci curvature tensor and scalar in terms of intrinsic torsion classes of half-flat manifolds by exploiting the relationship between half-flat manifolds and non-compact $G_2$ holonomy manifolds. Our expressions are tested for Iwasawa and more general nilpotent manifolds. We also derive ex…

Flat space for manifolds with tiny curvature.

We prove a weighted Sobolev inequality and a Hardy inequality on manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature satisfying an inverse doubling volume condition. It enables us to obtain rigidity results for Ricci flat manifolds, generalizing earlier work of Bando, Kasue and Nakajima.

In this paper, we study the Ricci flat manifolds with maximal volume growth using Perelman's reduced volume of Ricci flow. We show that if $(M^n,g)$ is an noncompact complete Ricci flat manifold with maximal volume growth satisfying $|Rm|(x)\to 0$ as $d(x)=d_g(x,p)\to \infty$, then $M^n$ has the quadratic curvature dec…

In this paper, we study the behavior of Ricci-flat Kähler metrics on Calabi-Yau manifolds under algebraic geometric surgeries: extremal transitions or flops. We prove a version of Candelas and de la Ossa's conjecture: Ricci-flat Calabi-Yau manifolds related by extremal transitions and flops can be connected by a path c…

On an $n$-dimensional complete manifold $M$, consider an $h$-almost gradient Ricci soliton, which is a generalization of a gradient Ricci soliton. We prove that if the manifold is Bach-flat and $dh/du>0$, then the manifold $M$ is either Einstein or rigid. In particular, such a manifold has harmonic Weyl curvature. More…
