Rigidity and weak notions of spectral scalar curvature

Xiaoxiang Chai

We give a weak formulation of spectral scalar curvature bounded from below via establishing a dihedral rigidity result. Given some special convex polyhedron, if another metric are…

Llarull type theorems for bands in Three and Four dimensions

Xiaoxiang Chai, Xueyuan Wan

Llarull's theorem asserts that the scalar curvature and the metric on the -sphere cannot be bounded below at the same time by those of the standard -sphere. Using the warped…
