Abstract

We study unit horizontal bundles associated with Riemannian submersions. First we investigate metric properties of an arbitrary unit horizontal bundle equipped with a Riemannian metric of the Cheeger-Gromoll type. Next we examine it from the Gromov-Hausdorff convergence theory point of view, and we state a collapse theorem for unit horizontal bundles associated with a sequence of warped Riemannian submersions.

Rigidity of complex bounded domains with finite-volume quotients

We prove that any bounded convex domain in $\mathbb{C}^n$ admitting a finite-volume quotient is biholomorphic to a bounded symmetric domain. We first show that such a convex domain always has a nontrivial one-parameter family of automorphisms; the proof then relies on our solution to Kazhdan's conjecture for contractible HHR/USq domains with finite-volume quotients. More precisely, we prove that any contractible bounded domain that has the uniform squeezing property and admits a finite-volume quotient is biholomorphic to a product of a bounded symmetric domain and a contractible complex manifold with discrete automorphism group. The quotient groups are discrete and may have finite stabilizers; volume is measured with respect to the complete Kähler--Einstein metric. As a further application, we also show that the automorphism groups of Bers--Griffiths domains in $\mathbb{C}^2$, which are not biholomorphic to the bidisk, are discrete.

Geometric Quantization by Paths Part II: The General Case

In Part I, we constructed the prequantum groupoid for connected and simply connected parasymplectic spaces. This second part extends the construction to arbitrary connected parasymplectic diffeological spaces $(X, ω)$: the obstruction to the additivity of the action form on loops is measured by a surfacic cocycle on $π_1(X)$, and a choice of rectifying cochain $c$ yields a prequantum groupoid $T_c$ whose isotropy group is the torus of periods $\mathbf{R}/P_ω$ and which carries a canonical invariant $1$-form of curvature $\operatorname{trg}^*ω- \operatorname{src}^*ω$. The resulting family $\{T_c\}_c$ is an affine space directed by the character group $\mathrm{Hom}(π_1(X), \mathbf{R}/P_ω)$.

Positive mass theorems for manifolds with asymptotically locally hyperbolic toroidal ends

In [Classical Quantum Gravity 35, 115015 (2018)], P. Chruściel, L. Nguyen, T.-T. Paetz and the first-named author obtained a positive mass theorem for asymptotically locally hyperbolic manifolds with boundary, having a toroidal end. The proof made use of properties of marginally outer trapped surfaces (MOTS). Here we present some new positive mass results for such manifolds, but without boundary, which allow for other more general ends. The proofs, while still MOTS-based, involve a more elaborate technique (related to $μ$-bubbles) introduced in work of D. A. Lee, M. Lesourd, and R. Unger [Calculus Var. Part. Differ. Equations 62(7), 194 (2023)] for manifolds with an asymptotically flat end, and further developed by the second-named author in [arXiv:2604.26978 (2026)] for manifolds with an asymptotically hyperbolic end.
