In this paper, we briefly review the relationship between the degeneration of the balanced cone and the degeneration of the Gauduchon cone. After that, the lower semi-continuity of the balanced cone under deformation is proved.

In a remarkable work [35], Wei established estimates for the eigenvalues of the Laplacian on closed submanifolds embedded in a unit sphere . In this study, we extend these results to the eigenvalues of the p-Laplacian. As a consequence, we provide new characterizations of the sphere . Additionally, we derive integral inequalities in terms of the norm of the second fundamental form of M and the first non-zero eigenvalue of the p-Laplacian, thereby generalizing the results previously established by Santos and Soares [11] for hypersurfaces.

We prove a global gradient estimate to positive solutions of the nonlinear parabolic equation under an integral Bakry-Émery Ricci condition on compact weighted manifolds. The elliptic version of the equation arises in the study of gradient Ricci solitons and in this paper we consider the parabolic version.

We study a global invariant for path structures which is obtained as a secondary invariant from a Cartan connection on a canonical bundle associated to a path structure. This invariant is computed in examples which are defined in terms of reductions of the path structure. In particular we give a formula for this global invariant for second order differential equations defined on a torus .

The double Cayley Grassmannian is a unique smooth equivariant completion with Picard number one of the 14-dimensional exceptional complex Lie group , and it parametrizes eight-dimensional isotropic subalgebras of the complexified bi-octonions. We show the rigidity of the double Cayley Grassmannian under Kähler deformations. This means that for any smooth projective family of complex manifolds over a connected base of which one fiber is biholomorphic to the double Cayley Grassmannian, all other fibers are biholomorphic to the double Cayley Grassmannian.

In this work, we study the geometric properties of spacelike foliations by hypersurfaces on a Lorentz manifold. We investigate conditions for the leaves being stable, totally geodesic or totally umbilical. We consider that is equipped with a timelike closed conformal vector field ξ. If the foliation has constant mean curvature, we show that the leaves are stable. When the leaves are compact spacelike hypersurfaces we show that, under certain conditions, its are totally umbilic hypersurfaces. In the case of foliations by complete noncompact hypersurfaces, we using a Maximum Principle at infinity to conclude that the foliation is totally geodesic.

We define the orthogonal Bakry-Émery tensor as a generalization of the orthogonal Ricci curvature, and then study diameter theorems on Kähler and quaternionic Kähler manifolds under positivity assumption on the orthogonal Bakry-Émery tensor. Moreover, under such assumptions on the orthogonal Bakry-Émery tensor and the holomorphic or quaternionic sectional curvature on a Kähler manifold or a quaternionic Kähler manifold respectively, the Bonnet-Myers type diameter bounds are sharper than in the Riemannian case.
