In this paper, we compute the adiabatic limit of the scalar curvature and prove several vanishing theorems by taking adiabatic limits. As an application, we give a Kastler-Kalau-Walze type theorem for foliations.

In this paper, we discuss some partitions of affine flag varieties. These partitions include as special cases the partition of affine flag variety into affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties and the affine analogue of the partition of flag varieties into $\cb_w (b) $ introduced by Lusztig in\cite {L1} as part of the definition of character sheaves.

Many years ago, SY Cheng, P. Li and myself [1] gave an estimate of the heat kernel for the Laplacian. This was later improved by P. Li and myself in [2]. The key point of this later paper was a parabolic Harnack inequality that generalized an elliptic Harnack inequality that I developed more than twenty years ago.

Several identities similar to the Schlaefli formula are established for tetrahedra in a space of constant curvature.

In this paper, we will introduce a precise classification of characteristic functions in the Fourier space according to the moment constraint in the physical space of any order. Based on this, we construct measure-valued solutions to the homogeneous Boltzmann equation with the exact moment condition as the initial data.
