Introduction
My research interests are mainly in the fields of Riemannian geometry and differential topology. I am particularly interested in the relations between curvature bounds, geometry, and topology. My current research is focused on the study of manifolds admitting singular Riemannian foliations, and the geometric as well as the topological consequences that the presence of such foliations yields. I apply techniques from Riemannian submersions, algebraic topology and Alexandrov geometry.

We show that, for each $n>1$, there exist infinitely many spin and non-spindiffeomorphism types of closed, smooth, simply-connected $(n+ 4)$-manifolds with a smooth,effective action of a torus $T^{n+2}$ and a metric of positive Ricci curvature invariant under a $T^{n}$-subgroup of $T^{n+2}$. As an application, we show that every closed, smooth, sim...

We show that a singular Riemannian foliation of codimension $2$ on a compact simply-connected Riemannian $(n + 2)$-manifold, with regular leaves homeomorphic to the $n$-torus, is given by a smooth effective $n$-torus action.

Using variational methods together with symmetries given by singular Riemannian foliations with positive dimensional leaves, we prove the existence of an infinite number of sign-changing solutions to Yamabe type problems, which are constant along the leaves of the foliation, and one positive solution of minimal energy among any other solution with...

We obtain an equivariant classification for orientable, closed, four-dimensional Alexandrov spaces admitting an isometric torus action. This generalizes the equivariant classification of Orlik and Raymond of closed four-dimensional manifolds with torus actions. Moreover, we show that such Alexandrov spaces are equivariantly homeomorphic to 4-dimens...

Let E be a smooth bundle with fiber an n-dimensional real projective space. We show that, if every fiber carries a positively curved pointwise strongly 1/4-pinched Riemannian metric that varies continuously with respect to its base point, then the structure group of the bundle reduces to the isometry group of the standard round metric on the projec...

We show that the integral foliated simplicial volume of a compact oriented smooth manifold with a regular foliation by circles vanishes.
Chapter
Full-text available
We review the well-known slice theorem of Ebin for the action of the diffeomorphism group on the space of Riemannian metrics of a closed manifold. We present advances in the study of the spaces of Riemannian metrics, and produce a more concise proof for the existence of slices.

We show that for a smooth manifold equipped with a singular Riemannian foliation, if the foliated metric has positive sectional curvature, and there exists a pre-section, that is a proper submanifold retaining all the transverse geometric information of the foliation, then the leaf space has boundary. In particular, we see that polar foliations of...

We show that, if every fiber carries a pointwise strongly $1/4$-pinched Riemannian metric that varies continuously with respect to its base point, then the structure group of the bundle reduces to the isometry group of the standard round metric on $\math...

We obtain an equivariant classification for orientable, closed, four-dimensional Alexandrov spaces admitting an isometric torus action. This generalizes the equivariant classification of Orlik and Raymond of closed four-dimensional manifolds with torus actions. We also obtain a partial homeomorphism classification.
