In this paper, we derive Li-Yau inequality for unbounded Laplacian on complete weighted graphs with the assumption of the curvature dimension inequality C D E(n, K), which can be regarded as a notion of curvature on graphs. Furthermore, we obtain some applications of Li-Yau inequality, including Harnack inequality, heat kernel bounds and Cheng's eigenvalue estimate. These are the first kind of results in this direction for unbounded Laplacian on graphs.

In a previous paper, we described a natural closed subset, M 0 1,k(X,A; J), of the moduli space M1,k(X,A; J) of stable genusone J-holomorphic maps into a symplectic manifold X. In this paper we generalize the definition of the main component to moduli spaces of perturbed, in a restricted way, J-holomorphic maps and conclude that M 0 1,k(X,A; J), just like M1,k(X,A; J), carries a virtual fundamental class, which can be used to define symplectic invariants. These truly genus-one invariants constitute part of the standard genus-one Gromov-Witten invariants, which arise from the entire moduli space M1,k(X,A; J). The new invariants are more geometric and can be used to compute the genus-one GW-invariants of complete intersections, as shown in a separate paper.

The holonomy of the ambient metrics of Nurowski’s conformal structures associated to generic real-analytic 2-plane fields on oriented 5-manifolds is investigated. It is shown that the holonomy is always contained in the split real form G2 of the exceptional Lie group, and is equal to G2 for an open dense set of 2-plane fields given by explicit conditions. In particular, this gives an infinitedimensional family of metrics of holonomy equal to split G2. These results generalize work of Leistner-Nurowski. The inclusion of the holonomy in G2 is established by proving an ambient extension theorem for parallel tractors in the context of conformal geometry in general signature and dimension, which is expected to be of independent interest.

We classify simply connected compact Sasaki manifolds of dimension 2 n+ 1 with positive transverse bisectional curvature. In particular, the Khler cone corresponding to such manifolds must be bi-holomorphic to C n+ 1\{0}. As an application we recover the theorem of Mori and SiuYau on the Frankel conjecture and extend it to certain orbifold version. The main idea is to deform such Sasaki manifolds to the standard round sphere in two steps, both fixing the complex structure on the Khler cone. First, we deform the metric along the SasakiRicci flow and obtain a limit SasakiRicci soliton with positive transverse bisectional curvature. Then by varying the Reeb vector field which essentially decreases the volume functional, we deform the SasakiRicci soliton to a SasakiEinstein metric with positive transverse bisectional curvature, ie a round sphere. The second deformation is only possible when one treats
