We give a characterization of conformal classes realizing a compact manifold's Yamabe invariant. This characterization is the analogue of an observation of Nadirashvili for metrics realizing the maximal first eigenvalue, and of Fraser and Schoen for metrics realizing the maximal first Steklov eigenvalue.

The paper explores embedding Ricci flow solutions in flag manifolds.

All candidates to the weakly-irreducible not irreducible holonomy algebras of Lorentzian manifolds are known. In the present paper metrics that realize all these candidates as holonomy algebras are given. This completes the classification of the Lorentzian holonomy algebras. Also new examples of metrics with the holono…

Cuspidal edges and swallowtails are typical non-degenerate singular points on wave fronts in the Euclidean $3$-space. Their first fundamental forms belong to a class of positive semi-definite metrics called "Kossowski metrics". A point where a Kossowski metric is not positive definite is called a singular point or a se…

Given an $n$-dimensional manifold $N$ with an affine connection $D$, we show that the associated Patterson-Walker metric $g$ on $T^*N$ admits a global and explicit Fefferman-Graham ambient metric. This provides a new and large class of conformal structures which are generically not conformally Einstein but for which th…

We give a method to construct Calabi-Yau metrics on G-invariant vector bundles over Kahler coset spaces G/H using supersymmetric nonlinear realizations with matter coupling. As a concrete example we discuss the CP^N model coupled with matter. The canonical line bundle is reproduced by the singlet matter and the cotange…

Ricci soliton contact metric manifolds with certain nullity conditions have recently been studied by Ghosh and Sharma. Whereas the gradient case is well-understood, they provided a list of candidates for the nongradient case.These candidates can be realized as Lie groups, but one only knows the structures of the underl…

The study proves properties of metrics and their conformal classes on specific manifolds.

We consider globally hyperbolic maximal anti de Sitter 3-manifolds $M$ with a closed Cauchy surface $S$ of genus greater than one and prove that any pair of hyperbolic metrics on $S$ can be realized as the boundary metrics of the convex core of a maximal globally hyperbolic anti de Sitter 3-manifold structure on $M$. T…

In this paper, we show that a closed manifold $M^{n+1} (n \geq 7)$ endowed with a $C^\infty$-generic (Baire sense) metric contains infinitely many singular minimal hypersurfaces with optimal regularity. Moreover, for $2 \leq n \leq 6$, our argument also implies the denseness of the minimal hypersurfaces realizing min-m…

We show that for any closed surface of genus greater than one and for any finite weighted graph filling the surface, there exists a hyperbolic metric which realizes the least Dirichlet energy harmonic embedding of the graph among a fixed homotopy class and all hyperbolic metrics on the surface. We give explicit example…

Branched covers between Riemann surfaces are associated with certain combinatorial data, and Hurwitz existence problem asks whether given data satisfying those combinatorial constraints can be realized by some branched cover. We connect recent development in spherical conic metrics to this old problem, and give a new m…

The study realizes symmetric spaces as cotangent bundles and finds nonnegative curvature examples.

Researchers found multiple spherical Ricci metrics on tori with rotational symmetry.

A compact manifold is called Bieberbach if it carries a flat Riemannian metric. Bieberbach manifolds are aspherical, therefore the supremum of their systolic ratio, over the set of Riemannian metrics, is finite by a fundamental result of M. Gromov. We study the optimal systolic ratio of compact of $3$-dimensional orien…

This paper corrects errors in UMAP's derivation and explains its properties.

It is an open question (Pawlikowski) whether every finitely generated group can be realized as a fundamental group of a compact metric space. In this paper we prove that any countable group can be realized as the fundamental group of a compact subspace of four dimensional Euclidean space. According to theorems of Shela…

It is proved that the equality $Δ\ln|κ-λ|=6κ$, where $κ$ is the Gaussian curvature of a metric tensor g on a 2-dimensional manifold is a sufficient and necessary condition for local realizability of the metric as the Blaschke metric of some affine sphere.

Given a contact 3-manifold we consider the problem of when a given function can be realized as the Ricci curvature of a Reeb vector field for the contact structure. We will use topological tools to show that every admissible function can be realized as such Ricci curvature for a singular metric which is an honest compa…

This article presents a proof of Pogorelov's result that there exists a $C^{2,1}$ metric with no local $C^2$ realization in $\mathbb{R}^3$. It also construct in a very elementary way a $C^{1,1}$ realization of this metric. Pogorelov's result is somewhat controversial among the community of researchers that study isomet…

We provide a simple algebraic construction of the twistor spaces of arbitrary Joyce's self-dual metrics on the 4-manifold H^2 x T^2 that extend smoothly to nCP^2, the connected sum of complex projective planes. Indeed, we explicitly realize projective models of the twistor spaces of arbitrary Joyce metrics on nCP^2 in …

We show that the metrical connection can be introduced in the two-dimensional Finsler space such that entailed parallel transports along curves joining points of the underlying manifold keep the two-vector angle as well as the length of the tangent vector, thereby realizing isometries of tangent spaces under the parall…

Explicit pseudo-Kähler metrics on flag manifolds are described.

A list of possible holonomy groups contained the exceptional, non-compact Lie group $\mathrm{G}_2^{*}$ was provided by Fino and Kath. The classification is due to the corresponding holonomy algebras and divided into Type I, II and III, depending on the dimension of the socle being 1,2 or 3, respectively. It was also sh…

On a manifold with boundary, we deform the metric conformally. This induces a deformation of the Schouten tensor. We fix the metric at the boundary and realize a prescribed value for the product of the eigenvalues of the Schouten tensor in the interior, provided that there exists a subsolution.

We obtain higher dimensional analogues of the results of Mantoulidis and Schoen in [8]. More precisely, we show that (i) any metric $g$ with positive scalar curvature on the $3$-sphere $S^3$ can be realized as the induced metric on the outermost apparent horizon of a $4$-dimensional asymptotically flat manifold with no…

In this paper we deal with the following problem: Find all Riemannian metrics on a manifold that can be realized isometrically as immersed hypersurfaces in the Euclidean space. We study this problem for a wide class of metrics on hypersurfaces arising from Codazzi tensors.

Compact Lie groups can be realized as automorphism groups of Riemannian manifolds.

The main result is that every complete finite area hyperbolic metric on a sphere with punctures can be uniquely realized as the induced metric on the surface of a convex ideal polyhedron in hyperbolic 3-space. A number of other observations are included.

We introduce a systematic method to solve a type of Cartan's realization problem. Our method builds upon a new theory of Lie algebroids and Lie groupoids with structure group and connection. This approach allows to find local as well as complete solutions, their symmetries, and to determine the moduli spaces of local a…

The aim of this paper is to construct infinitely many families of Einstein metrics on the connected sums of arbitrary number of copies of $S^2\times S^3$. We realize these 5-manifolds as total spaces of Seifert bundles over Del Pezzo orbifolds. A Kähler--Einstein metric on the Del Pezzo orbifold is then lifted to an Ei…

We prove that any metric with curvature $\leq -1$ (in the sense of A. D. Alexandrov) on a closed surface of genus $>1$ is isometric to the induced intrinsic metric on a space-like convex surface in a Lorentzian manifold of dimension $(2+1)$ with sectional curvature $-1$. The proof is done by approximation, using a resu…

Given a closed surface endowed with a volume form, we equip the space of compatible Riemannian structures with the structure of an infinite-dimensional symplectic manifold. We show that the natural action of the group of volume-preserving diffeomorphisms by push-forward has a group-valued momentum map that assigns to a…

We prove the existence of an abundance of new Einstein metrics on odd dimensional spheres including exotic spheres, many of them depending on continuous parameters. The number of families as well as the number of parameter grows double exponentially with the dimension. Our method of proof uses Brieskorn-Pham singularit…
