  • The object of the present paper is to prove the non-existence of pseudo projective Ricci symmetric spacetimes $(PW\;RS)_4$ with different types of energy momentum tensor. We also discuss whether a fluid $(PW\;RS)_4$ spacetime with the basic vector field as the velocity vector field of the fluid can admit heat flux. Next we consider perfect fluid and dust fluid $(PW\;RS)_4$ spacetimes respectively. Finally we construct an example of a $(PW\;RS)_4$ spacetime.

  • Consider the mean distance of Brownian motion on Riemannian manifolds. We obtain the first three terms of the asymptotic expansion of the mean distance by means of Stochastic Differential Equation(SDE) for Brownian motion on Riemannian manifold. This method proves to be much simpler for further expansion than the methods developed by Liao and Zheng(1995). Our expansion gives the same characterizations as the mean exit time from a small geodesic ball with regard to Euclidean space and the rank 1 symmetric spaces.

  • We prove Perelman type 𝒲-entropy formulae and differential Harnack estimates for positive solutions to weighed doubly nonlinear diffusion equation on weighted Riemannian manifolds with CD(-K, m) condition for some K ≥ 0 and m ≥ n, which are also new for the non-weighted case. As applications, we derive some Harnack inequalities.

  • On a compact n-dimensional manifold M, it has been conjectured that a critical point of the total scalar curvature, restricted to the space of metrics with constant scalar curvature of unit volume, is Einstein. In this paper, after derivng an interesting curvature identity, we show that the conjecture is true in dimension three and four when g is weakly Einstein. In higher dimensional case $n{\geq}5$, we also show that the conjecture is true under an additional Ricci curvature bound. Moreover, we prove that the manifold is isometric to a standard n-sphere when it is n-dimensional weakly Einstein and the kernel of the linearized scalar curvature operator is nontrivial.
