The Lichnerowicz theorem on CR manifolds [PDF]
, 2006 We obtain a Bochner type formula and an estimate from below on the spectrum of the sublaplacian of a compact strictly pseudoconvex CR manifold.Comment: 21 ...

A survey on Inverse mean curvature flow in ROSSes
Complex Manifolds, 2017 In this survey we discuss the evolution by inverse mean curvature flow of star-shaped mean convex hypersurfaces in non-compact rank one symmetric spaces.

Weighted metrics on tangent sphere bundles [PDF]
, 2010 Natural metric structures on the tangent bundle and tangent sphere bundles $S_rM$ of a Riemannian manifold $M$ with radius function $r$ enclose many important unsolved problems. Admitting metric connections on $M$ with torsion, we deduce the equations of

On Jacobi fields and canonical connection in sub-Riemannian geometry [PDF]
, 2017 In sub-Riemannian geometry the coefficients of the Jacobi equation define curvature-like invariants. We show that these coefficients can be interpreted as the curvature of a canonical Ehresmann connection associated to the metric, first introduced in ...

A metric characterization of Carnot groups
, 2014 We give a short axiomatic introduction to Carnot groups and their subRiemannian and subFinsler geometry. We explain how such spaces can be metrically described as exactly those proper geodesic spaces that admit dilations and are isometrically ...

A note on sub-Riemannian structures associated with complex Hopf fibrations
, 2012 Sub-Riemannian structures on odd-dimensional spheres respecting the Hopf fibration naturally appear in quantum mechanics. We study the curvature maps for such a sub-Riemannian structure and express them using the Riemannian curvature tensor of the Fubini-

An Approach to Studying Quasiconformal Mappings on Generalized Grushin Planes [PDF]
, 2014 We demonstrate that the complex plane and a class of generalized Grushin planes $G_r$, where $r$ is a function satisfying specific requirements, are quasisymmetrically equivalent.

Moving frames for cotangent bundles
, 2002 Cartan's moving frames method is a standard tool in riemannian geometry. We set up the machinery for applying moving frames to cotangent bundles and its sub-bundles defined by non-holonomic constraints.Comment: 13 pages, to appear in Rep.

Analysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces, 2013 In this paper we study heat kernels associated with a Carnot group G, endowed with a family of collapsing left-invariant Riemannian metrics σε which converge in the Gromov- Hausdorff sense to a sub-Riemannian structure on G as ε→ 0.

On Conditions for Unrectifiability of a Metric Space
Analysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces, 2014 We find necessary and sufficient conditions for a Lipschitz map f : E ⊂ ℝk → X into a metric space to satisfy ℋk(f(E)) = 0. An interesting feature of our approach is that despite the fact that we are dealing with arbitrary metric spaces, we employ a ...
