For every non-vanishing spinor field on a Riemannian $7$-manifold, Crowley, Goette, and Nordstr"om introduced the so-called $nu$-invariant. This is an integer modulo $48$, and can be defined in terms of Mathai--Quillen currents, harmonic spinors, and $eta$-invariants of spin Dirac and odd-signature operator. We compute these data for the compact two-step nilmanifolds admitting invariant closed $mathrm G_2$-structures, in particular determining the harmonic spinors and relevant symmetries of the spectrum of the spin Dirac operator. We then deduce the vanishing of the $nu$-invariants.

In this paper we develop an analogue of the Berkovich analytification for non-necessarily algebraic complex spaces. We apply this theory to generalize to arbitrary compact K"ahler manifolds a result of Chi Li, proving that a stronger version of K-stability implies the existence of a unique constant scalar curvature K"ahler metric.

We confirm a conjecture of Bonini et. al. on the precise Lin-Lu-Yau curvature values of conference graphs, i.e., strongly regular graphs with parameters $(4gamma+1,2gamma,gamma-1,gamma)$, with $gammageq 2$. Our method only depends on the parameter relations and applies to more general classes of amply regular graphs. In particular, we develop a new combinatorial method for showing the existence of local perfect matchings. A key observation is that counting common neighbors leads to useful quadratic polynomials. Our result also leads to an interesting number theoretic consequence on quadratic residues.

In this paper, we obtain that logarithmic Sobolev and $mathcal{W}$- functionals have fantastic power series expansion formulas when we choose suitable test functions. By using these power series expansion formulas, we prove that if for some open subset $V$ in an $n$-dimensional manifold satisfying $$ frac{ int_V R dmu}{mathrm{Vol}(V)} ge n(n-1)K$$ and the isoperimetric profile of $V$ satisfying $$ operatorname{I}(V,beta)doteq inflimits_{Omegasubset V,mathrm{Vol}(Omega)=beta}mathrm{Area}(partial Omega) ge operatorname{I}(M^n_K,beta),$$ for all $beta
