On the Conformal and CR Automorphism Groups.
We develop the differential geometric and geometric analytic studies of Hamiltonian systems. Key ingredients are the curvature operator, the weighted Laplacian, and the associated Riccati equation.We prove appropriate generalizations of the Bochner-Weitzenböck formula and Laplacian comparison theorem, and study the heat flow.
In the present paper we have obtained a new example of non-Ricci-flat almost pseudo-Z-symmetric manifolds in the class of equidistant spaces, which admit non-trivial geodesic mappings.
Myers's classical theorem says that a compact Riemannian manifold with positive Ricci curvature has finite fundamental group. Using Ambrose's compactness criterion or J. Lott's results, M. Fernández-López and E. García-Río showed that the finiteness of the fundamental group remains valid for a compact shrinking Ricci soliton. We give a self-contained proof of this fact by estimating the lengths of shortest geodesic loops in each homotopy class.
Let be a compact manifold let be a finite group acting freely on , and let be the (Fréchet) space of -invariant metric on . A natural conjecture is that, for a generic metric in , all eigenspaces of the Laplacian are irreducible (as orthogonal representations of ). In physics terminology, no “accidental degeneracies” occur generically. We will prove this conjecture when dim dim for all irreducibles of . As an application, we construct isospectral manifolds with simple eigenvalue...
Let be a compact Riemannian manifold and an elliptic, formally self-adjoint, conformally covariant operator of order acting on smooth sections of a bundle over . We prove that if has no rigid eigenspaces (see Definition 2.2), the set of functions for which has only simple non-zero eigenvalues is a residual set in . As a consequence we prove that if has no rigid eigenspaces for a dense set of metrics, then all non-zero eigenvalues are simple for a residual set of metrics in the -topology....
We prove that the Paneitz energy on the standard three-sphere is bounded from below and extremal metrics must be conformally equivalent to the standard metric.

Robert C. Reilly a obtenu des majorations de la première valeur propre du laplacien pour les hypersurfaces de l’espace euclidien. De plus, il a montré que le cas d’égalité dans ces majorations est atteint uniquement pour les sphères géodésiques. Dans cet exposé, nous nous intéressons au problème de pincement pour ces majorations. Nous montrons que si le cas d’égalité est presque atteint, alors l’hypersurface est proche d’une sphère, en un sens que nous préciserons. Nous déduisons ensuite des résultats...
In this paper, we give a sharp estimate on the dimension of the space of polynomial growth harmonic functions with fixed degree on a complete Riemannian manifold, under various assumptions.
