Scalar curvature in discrete gravity
We focus on studying, numerically, the scalar curvature tensor in a two-dimensional discrete space. The continuous metric of a two-sphere is transformed into that of a lattice using two possible slicings.

Kropina Metrics with Isotropic Scalar Curvature
In this paper, we study Kropina metrics with isotropic scalar curvature. First, we obtain the expressions of Ricci curvature tensor and scalar curvature. Then, we characterize the Kropina metrics with isotropic scalar curvature on by tensor analysis.

TOTAL SCALAR CURVATURE AND HARMONIC CURVATURE
On a compact n-dimensional manifold, it has been conjectured that a critical point metric of the total scalar curvature, restricted to the space of metrics with constant scalar curvature of unit volume, will be Einstein. This conjecture was proposed in 1984 by Besse, but has yet to be proved.

On Scalar and Ricci Curvatures [PDF]
The purpose of this report is to acknowledge the influence of M. Gromov's vision of geometry on our own works. It is two-fold: in the first part we aim at describing some results, in dimension 3, around the question: which open 3-manifolds carry a complete Riemannian metric of positive or non negative scalar curvature?

On the geometry of the tangent bundle with gradient Sasaki metric [PDF]
Purpose – Let (M, g) be a n-dimensional smooth Riemannian manifold. In the present paper, the authors introduce a new class of natural metrics denoted by gf and called gradient Sasaki metric on the tangent bundle TM. The authors calculate its Levi-Civita

In this article, we investigate the Kenmotsu manifold when applied to a \(D_{\alpha}\)-homothetic deformation. Then, given a submanifold in a \(D_{\alpha}\)-homothetically deformed Kenmotsu manifold, we derive the generalized Wintgen inequality ...

Scalar Curvature and Q-Curvature of Random Metrics [PDF]
We study Gauss curvature for random Riemannian metrics on a compact surface, lying in a fixed conformal class; our questions are motivated by comparison geometry. Next, analogous questions are considered for the scalar curvature in dimension $n>2$, and for the $Q$-curvature of random Riemannian metrics.

Horizon curvature and spacetime structure influences on black hole scalarization
Black hole spontaneous scalarization has been attracting more and more attention as it circumvents the well-known no-hair theorems. In this work, we study the scalarization in Einstein–scalar-Gauss–Bonnet theory with a probe scalar field in a black hole ...

Mean Curvature in the Light of Scalar Curvature [PDF]
We formulate several conjectures on mean convex domains in the Euclidean spaces, as well as in more general spaces with lower bounds on their scalar curvatures, and prove a few theorems motivating these ...

Deformation of the Weighted Scalar Curvature
Inspired by the work of Fischer-Marsden [Duke Math. J. 42 (1975), 519-547], we study in this paper the deformation of the weighted scalar curvature. By studying the kernel of the formal $L_\phi^2$-adjoint for the linearization of the weighted scalar curvature, we prove several geometric results.
