Ricci curvature and quantum geometry [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Geometric Methods in Modern Physics, 2020
We describe a few elementary aspects of the circle of ideas associated with a quantum field theory (QFT) approach to Riemannian Geometry, a theme related to how Riemannian structures are generated out of the spectrum of (random or quantum) fluctuations around a background fiducial geometry.

∗-Ricci Tensor on α-Cosymplectic Manifolds

open access: yesAdvances in Mathematical Physics, 2022
In this paper, we study α-cosymplectic manifold M admitting ∗-Ricci tensor. First, it is shown that a ∗-Ricci semisymmetric manifold M is ∗-Ricci flat and a ϕ-conformally flat manifold M is an η-Einstein manifold. Furthermore, the ∗-Weyl curvature tensor

On the Geometry of Three-dimensional Pseudo-Riemannian Homogeneous Spaces. II [PDF]

open access: yesИзвестия Саратовского университета. Новая серия: Математика. Механика. Информатика, 2020
The problem of establishing links between the curvature and the topological structure of a manifold is one of the important problems of the geometry. In general, the purpose of the research of manifolds of various types is rather complicated.

A Note on the Geometry of RW Space-Times

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
A conformally flat GRW space-time is a perfect fluid RW space-time. In this note, we investigated the influence of many differential curvature conditions, such as the existence of recurrent and semi-symmetric curvature tensors.

Graph Ricci curvatures reveal atypical functional connectivity in autism spectrum disorder

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
While standard graph-theoretic measures have been widely used to characterize atypical resting-state functional connectivity in autism spectrum disorder (ASD), geometry-inspired network measures have not been applied. In this study, we apply Forman–Ricci

The curvature of gradient Ricci solitons [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Research Letters, 2011
We study integral and pointwise bounds on the curvature of gradient shrinking Ricci solitons. As applications we discuss gap and compactness results for gradient shrinkers.

Ricci curvature of graphs

open access: yesTohoku Mathematical Journal, 2011
We modify the definition of Ricci curvature of Ollivier of Markov chains on graphs to study the properties of the Ricci curvature of general graphs, Cartesian product of graphs, random graphs, and some special class of graphs.

The Ricci curvature in noncommutative geometry [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Noncommutative Geometry, 2019
Motivated by the local formulae for asymptotic expansion of heat kernels in spectral geometry, we propose a definition of Ricci curvature in noncommutative settings. The Ricci operator of an oriented closed Riemannian manifold can be realized as a spectral functional, namely the functional defined by the zeta function of the full Laplacian of the de ...

A Volume Comparison Estimate with Radially Symmetric Ricci Curvature Lower Bound and Its Applications

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2010
We extend the classical Bishop-Gromov volume comparison from constant Ricci curvature lower bound to radially symmetric Ricci curvature lower bound, and apply it to investigate the volume growth, total Betti number, and finite topological type of ...
