More M-branes on product of Ricci-flat manifolds [PDF]
Partially supersymmetric intersecting (non-marginal) composite M-brane solutions defined on the product of Ricci-flat manifolds M0 × M1 × ⋯ × Mn in D = 11 supergravity are considered and formulae for fractional numbers of unbroken supersymmetries are derived for the following configurations of branes: M2 ∩ M2, M2 ∩ M5, M5 ∩ M5 and M2 ∩ M2 ∩ M2 ...

On invariance and Ricci-flatness of Hermitian metrics on open manifolds
We discuss a technique to construct Ricci-flat hermitian metrics on complements of (some) anticanonical divisors of almost homogeneous complex manifolds and inquire into when this metric is complete and Kähler. This construction has a strong interplay with invariance groups of the same dimension as the manifold acting with an open orbit.

Stability of ALE Ricci-Flat Manifolds Under Ricci Flow [PDF]
AbstractWe 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 togexists for all time and converges modulo diffeomorphism to an ALE Ricci-flat metric close tog. By adapting Tian’s approach in the closed case, we show that integrability holds for

Static Ricci-flat 5-manifolds admitting the 2-sphere [PDF]
We examine, in a purely geometrical way, static Ricci-flat 5-manifolds admitting the 2-sphere and an additional hypersurface-orthogonal Killing vector. These are widely studied in the literature, from different physical approaches, and known variously as the Kramer - Gross - Perry - Davidson - Owen solutions.

DEGENERATIONS OF RICCI-FLAT CALABI–YAU MANIFOLDS [PDF]
This paper is a sequel to [Continuity of extremal transitions and flops for Calabi–Yau manifolds, J. Differential Geom.89 (2011) 233–270]. We further investigate the Gromov–Hausdorff convergence of Ricci-flat Kähler metrics under degenerations of Calabi–Yau manifolds.

Asymptotically cylindrical Ricci-flat manifolds [PDF]
Asymptotically cylindrical Ricci-flat manifolds play a key role in constructing Topological Quantum Field Theories. It is particularly important to understand their behavior at the cylindrical ends and the natural restrictions on the geometry. In this paper we show that an orientable, connected, asymptotically cylindrical manifold(M,g)(M,g)with Ricci ...

Mass Hierarchies and Quantum Gravity Constraints in DKMM‐refined KKLT
Abstract We carefully revisit the mass hierarchies for the KKLT scenario with an uplift term from an anti D3‐brane in a strongly warped throat. First, we derive the bound resulting from what is usually termed “the throat fitting into the bulk” directly from the Klebanov‐Strassler geometry.

Energy and asymptotics of Ricci-flat 4-manifolds with a Killing field [PDF]
Given a complete, Ricci-flat 4-manifold with a Killing field, we give an estimate on the manifold's energy in terms of a certain asymptotic quantity of the Killing field. If the Killing field has no zeros and satisfies a certain asymptotic condition, the manifold is flat.

Canonical Identification at Infinity for Ricci-Flat Manifolds [PDF]
We give a natural way to identify between two scales, potentially arbitrarily far apart, in a non-compact Ricci-flat manifold with Euclidean volume growth when a tangent cone at infinity has smooth cross section. The identification map is given as the gradient flow of a solution to an elliptic equation.
