This is a chapter of the planned monograph "Out of Nowhere: The Emergence of Spacetime in Quantum Theories of Gravity", co-authored by Nick Huggett and Christian W\"uthrich and under contract with Oxford University Press. (More information…
This paper begins with a short presentation of the Bianchi IX or ``Mixmaster'' cosmological model, and some ways of writing the Einstein equations for it. There is then an interlude describing how I came to a study of this model, and then a…
The physical origin of spacetime discreteness remains a central open problem in quantum gravity, with most existing approaches relying on specific microscopic structures or model-dependent assumptions. In this letter, spacetime discreteness…
This is an updated version of the lectures notes for a course on condensed mathematics taught in the summer term 2019 at the University of Bonn. The material presented is joint work with Dustin Clausen. This is intended as a stable citable…
In this paper, we give an interesting extension of the partial S-metric space which was introduced [4] to the M_s-metric space. Also, we prove the existence and uniqueness of a fixed point for a self mapping on an Ms-metric space under…

The interaction of matter with gravity in two dimensional spacetimes can be supplemented with a geometrical force analogous to a Lorentz force produced on a surface by a constant perpendicular magnetic field. In the special case of constant…
We provide a unified description of Heinz-type mean curvature estimates under an assumption on the gradient bound for space-like graphs and time-like graphs in the Lorentz-Minkowski space. As a corollary, we give a unified vanishing theorem…

In this brief reply we respond to the note of Bertolami and Gomes (arXiv:2005.03968) on our recent paper (arXiv:2003.10154).
We present a list of open questions on various aspects of AdS geometry, that is, the geometry of Lorentz spaces of constant curvature -1. When possible we point out relations with homogeneous spaces and discrete subgroups of Lie groups, to…
I reply to a Comment by Q. Wang and W.G. Unruh regarding my paper "Hiding the Cosmological Constant" [Phys. Rev. Lett. 123, 131302].
This article is a survey of recent results about scalar curvature and contractible open $3$-manifolds. It is dedicated to the memory of Professor S. S. Chern.
Let f:\Sigma_1 --> \Sigma_2 be a map between compact Riemannian manifolds of constant curvature. This article considers the evolution of the graph of f in the product of \Sigma_1 and \Sigma_2 by the mean curvature flow. Under suitable…
This is an English translation of Moufang's notes "Grundlagen der Geometrie" at the University of Frankfurt in 1948, with added notes by the translator.
These are expanded notes of a seminar held in Columbia university during the Spring and Fall of 2024 about the theory of analytic stacks of Clausen and Scholze, with a focus in the theory of solid mathematics. The seminar is inspired from…
In this paper we define Fermi-type coordinates in a 2-dimensional Lorentz manifold, and use this coordinate system to provide a local characterization of constant Gaussian curvature metrics for such manifolds, following a classical result…
In this paper we investigate the flow of surfaces by a class of symmetric functions of the principal curvatures with a mixed volume constraint. We consider compact surfaces without boundary that can be written as a graph over a sphere. The…
This is a supplement to the paper arXiv:q-bio/0701050, containing the text of correspondence sent to Nature in 1990.
We give a brief survey of some of the geometry of mirror symmetry, written in 2004 for the "Encyclopaedia of Mathematical Physics". Probably a little bit out of date now in a few places, but hey.
