Blowing up and desingularizing constant scalar curvature K\"{a}hler manifolds

open access: yes, 2005
This paper is concerned with the existence of constant scalar curvature Kaehler metrics on blow ups at finitely many points of compact manifolds which already carry constant scalar curvature Kaehler metrics.

Constraints on primordial curvature spectrum from primordial black holes and scalar-induced gravitational waves

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023
The observational data of primordial black holes and scalar-induced gravitational waves can constrain the primordial curvature perturbation at small scales. We parameterize the primordial curvature perturbation by a broken power law form and find that it

Rigidity of noncompact complete Bach-flat manifolds

open access: yes, 2010
Let $(M,g)$ be a noncompact complete Bach-flat manifold with positive Yamabe constant. We prove that $(M,g)$ is flat if $(M, g)$ has zero scalar curvature and sufficiently small $L_{2}$ bound of curvature tensor.

On some m-th root metrics

open access: yesAIMS Mathematics
The Ricci curvature in Finsler geometry naturally generalizes the Ricci curvature in Riemannian geometry. In this paper, we study the -th root metric with weakly isotropic scalar curvature and obtain that its scalar curvature must vanish.

Black Holes have Intrinsic Scalar Curvature

open access: yesReports in Advances of Physical Sciences, 2023
The scalar curvature R is invariant under isometric symmetries (distance invariance) associated with metric spaces. Gravitational Riemannian manifolds are metric spaces.

Enlargeable metrics on nonspin manifolds

open access: yes, 2019
We show that an enlargeable Riemannian metric on a (possibly nonspin) manifold cannot have uniformly positive scalar curvature. This extends a well-known result of Gromov and Lawson to the nonspin setting.

Scalar curvatures onS n

open access: yesMathematische Annalen, 1989
The author studies the question whether a given smooth function K on \(S^ n\) is the scalar curvature of a metric conformal to the standard metric. Not all functions can be realized - obstructions have been found by Kazdan-Warner and Bourguignon-Ezin. The author gives various sufficient conditions, related to work of Escobar and Schoen, for a positive ...

Intrinsic problems of the gravitational baryogenesis

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2017
Modification of gravity due to the curvature dependent term in the gravitational baryogenesis scenario is considered. It is shown that this term leads to the fourth order differential equation of motion for the curvature scalar instead of the algebraic ...

Derivative couplings in gravitational production in the early universe

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2020
Gravitational particle production in the early universe is due to the coupling of matter fields to curvature. This coupling may include derivative terms that modify the kinetic term.
