Positive scalar curvature on the double of a manifold

Let $(M,g)$ be a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary and assume it has positive scalar curvature. Question. Is it true that $DM$, the double of $M$, admits a metric of positive scalar curvature …

Every disk in $(S^2 \times S^1) \setminus B$ whose boundary lies in $\partial B$ separates

Let $M = (S^2 \times S^1) \setminus B$, where $B$ is a small open ball in $S^2 \times S^1$. Is it true to assert that every embedded $2$-disk $D \subset M$ such that $D \cap \partial M = \partial D$ n …

Special spheres: principal curvatures with different signs

For $\varepsilon > 0$, we say that a closed, connected and oriented immersed hypersurface $M^n$ of a riemannian manifold $(N^{n+1},g)$ is $\varepsilon$-convex whenever all principal curvatures of $M$ …

Special Riemannian metric on the product

Let $M^2$ be an orientable surface with boundary endowed with a Riemannian metric $g$. We know that if we put in the manifold $M \times \mathbb{R}$ the product metric $\overline{g} = g + dt^2$, then t …

Leaves of bounded genus

Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a codimension one foliation in a closed $3$-manifold $M$. Does there exist an upper bound for the genus of the compact orientable leaves? That is, does there exist $G >0$ such tha …

Sequence of minimal surfaces with bounded second fundamental form and area

Let $M^3$ be a closed orientable smooth manifold, let $g_n$ be a sequence of Riemannian metrics on $M$ converging to $g$ and let $\Sigma_n$ be a sequence of closed orientable $g_n$-minimal surfaces em …

Behaviour of mass for currents with disjoint supports

I am sorry if this is a basic question, but I don't think in MSE I will receive any answers. Let $(M^3,g)$ be a compact and oriented Riemannian $3$-manifold. Let $\alpha$ and $\beta$ be the integral c …

Rigidity case of a geometric theorem for $3$-manifolds with boundary

Let $(M^3,g)$ be a compact Riemannian $3$-manifold with boundary. In a paper by L. Ambrozio, he considers the set $\mathcal{F}_M$ of all immersed disks in $M$ whose boundaries are curves in $\partial …

On the minimum distance along an orbit

Let $\Gamma$ be a nontrivial group of isometries of $\mathbb{S}^n$, $n \geq 2$, acting properly discontinuously. For $p \in \mathbb{S}^n$, define $$r(p) = \min_{g \in \Gamma \setminus\{e\} } d(p, g(p …

Rational systole of a manifold

I also posted this question on MSE, but since it may be a delicate question, I decided to post it here. Given a Riemannian manifold $(M^n,g)$ and an integer $1 \leq k \leq n-1$, the $k$-systole of $M$ …
