Abstract In this paper, we introduce the weighted projective Ricci curvature as an extension of projective Ricci curvature introduced by Z. Shen. We characterize the class of Randers metrics of weighted projective Ricci flat curvature. We find the necessary and sufficient condition under which a Kropina metric has weighted projective Ricci flat curvature. Finally, we show that every projectively flat metric with isotropic weighted projective Ricci and isotropic S-curvature is a Kropina metric or Randers metric.

Here, using the projectively invariant pseudo-distance and Schwarzian derivative, it is shown that every connected complete Finsler space of the constant negative Ricci scalar is reversible. In particular, every complete Randers metric of constant negative Ricci (or flag) curvature is Riemannian.

We derive Harnack-type inequalities for non-negative solutions of the porous medium equation on a complete Riemannian manifold with non-negative Ricci curvature. Along with gradient estimates, reparametrization of a geodesic and time rescaling of a solution are key tools to get the results.

As is well-known, the Weil–Petersson metric ωWP on the moduli space ℳg has negative Ricci curvature. Hence, its negative first Chern form defines the so-called Ricci metric ωτ. Their combination [Formula: see text], C > 0, introduced by Liu–Sun–Yau, is called the perturbed Ricci metric. It is a complete Kähler metric with finite volume. Furthermore, it has bounded geometry. In this paper, we investigate the finiteness of this new metric from another point of view. More precisely, we will prove in the thick part of ℳg, the holomorphic bisectional curvature of [Formula: see text] is bounded by a constant depending only on the thick constant and C0 when C ≥ (3g - 3)C0, but not on the genus g.
