Let $n\geq3$ and $0\leq\tau\leq2$. We prove that every smooth closed connected immersed hypersurface in hyperbolic space whose induced metric has positive $\tau$-bi-Ricci curvature admits a mean curvature flow with surgery which has only finitely many surgery times and terminates. In the range compatible with cylindrical necks, the key ingredients are a preserved quantitative spectral pinching condition, which converts the intrinsic hypothesis into uniform two-convexity, and cylindrical and derivative estimates that remain valid across the hyperbolic standard neck replacement. At the endpoint $n=3$, $\tau=2$, positive $\tau$-bi-Ricci curvature is positive Ricci curvature and forces strict convexity, so the ordinary mean curvature flow converges to a round point. Consequently, the underlying manifold is diffeomorphic to a sphere or to a finite connected sum of copies of $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}\times\mathbb{S}^1$. If the initial hypersurface is embedded and bounds a compact domain, that domain is a one-handlebody, namely a ball with finitely many one-handles attached.
Let $M^3\to X^4$ be a complete, connected, two-sided stable minimal immersion. We prove that if the ambient sectional curvature is nonnegative and the ambient scalar curvature has a positive uniform lower bound, then $M$ is totally geodesic and its normal Ricci curvature vanishes. No weak bounded geometry assumption an...
We study the quasilinear Liouville equation \[ -\Delta_n u=e^u \] on complete noncompact Riemannian manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature. Our first result shows that, if a solution $u$ satisfies the optimal logarithmic lower bound \[ u(x)\ge -\frac{n^2}{n-1}\log r(x)+o(\log r(x)) \quad \text{as }r(x)\to+\infty, \...
We study locally conformally flat (LCF) Riemannian manifolds with nonnegative or positive scalar curvature (PSC), using the conformal boundary of the developing image. For closed oriented LCF $n$-manifolds with PSC and infinite fundamental group, $n\ge5$, we bound the macroscopic dimension of their Riemannian universal...
We completely classify conformal metrics on the unit ball $(\mathbb{B}^{n+1},|\mathrm{d} x|^2)$, $n\geq4$, with positive constant $Q$-curvature, positive constant $T$-curvature, and minimal boundary. After normalizing the $Q$-curvature, there is a unique conformal metric for each $T$-curvature value in $[0,+\infty)$, u...
We prove that $S^2\times S^3$ admits a Riemannian metric with positive sectional curvature. We view it as a principal circle bundle over $S^2\times S^2$. A diagonal Cheeger deformation of the base and a connection whose curvature form vanishes on the remaining flat tori yield a nonnegatively curved connection metric wh...
Let $M^n$ be a $C^2$ closed convex hypersurface in Euclidean space, and $\sigma_m$ be its $m$th mean curvature. We show that $M$ is symmetric with respect to a hyperplane orthogonal to a given direction $e$, if $\sigma_m(p)\leq\sigma_m(q)$ whenever $p-q$ is parallel to $e$. For convex hypersurfaces, this settles a conj...
