On some critical Riemannian metrics and Thorpe-type conditions
Mohammed Larbi Labbi
We study critical metrics of higher-order curvature functionals on compact Riemannian -manifolds . For an integer with , let denote the -th…

Generalized Double Duals of the Riemann Tensor in Geometry and Gravity
Mohammed Larbi Labbi
The Riemann curvature tensor fully encodes local geometry, but its Ricci contraction retains only limited information: only the Ricci tensor and the scalar curvature survive, while…

Hodge-de Rham and Lichnérowicz Laplacians on double forms and some vanishing theorems
Mohammed Larbi Labbi
A -double form on a Riemannian manifold can be considered simultaneously as a vector-valued differential -form over or alternatively as a vector-valued -fo…
