In this paper, we prove a rigidity theorem of asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds only under the assumptions on curvature. Its proof is based on analyzing asymptotic structures of such manifolds at infinity and a volume comparison theorem.
Piecewise Euclidean structures (identified solid Euclidean polyhedra) on topological 3-dimensional manifolds and pseudo-manifolds are constructed so that they admit pseudo-foliations, a generalized type of foliation. The construction of…
We describe explicitly the large volume isoperimetric regions of a natural class of asymptotically flat manifolds, in any dimension. These isoperimetric regions detect the mass and the center of mass of such manifolds when viewed as initial…
For any non-rotating effective quantum (uncharged) black hole model to be viable, its asymptotic structure of spacetime should reduce to that of a Schwarzschild black hole. After examining the asymptotic structure of quantum black holes…
We prove two rigidity theorems for open (complete and noncompact) $n$-manifolds $M$ with nonnegative Ricci curvature and the infimum of volume growth order $<2$. The first theorem asserts that the Riemannian universal cover of $M$ has…
In a recent research on degenerate points of steady axisymmetric gravity flows with general vorticity, it has been shown that the possible asymptotics near any stagnation point must be the "Stokes corner", the "horizontal cusp", or the…
We give some lower estimates of the ADM mass of an asymptotically flat (AF) Riemannian manifold without assuming that the scalar curvature of the manifold is nonnegative. Some sufficient conditions for an AF manifold to have nonnegative ADM…
We characterize the long time behaviour of a discrete-in-time approximation of the volume preserving fractional mean curvature flow. In particular, we prove that the discrete flow starting from any bounded set of finite fractional perimeter…
Quantum gravity is expected to impose constraints on the moduli spaces of massless fields that can arise in effective quantum field theories. A recent proposal asserts that the asymptotic volume growth of these spaces is severely…
We prove the existence of foliations by area-minimizing hypersurfaces in asymptotically flat (AF) manifolds with arbitrary dimension and arbitrary ends. Also we provide behaviors of those hypersurfaces near the infinity of AF ends and…
We prove that there are no restrictions on the spatial topology of asymptotically flat solutions of the vacuum Einstein equations in (n+1)-dimensions. We do this by gluing a solution of the vacuum constraint equations on an arbitrary…
We have previously proposed that asymptotically AdS 3D wormholes and black holes can be analytically continued to the Euclidean signature. The analytic continuation procedure was described for non-rotating spacetimes, for which a plane t=0…
We study the behavior of asymptotically free (AF) spin and gauge models when their continuous symmetry group is replaced by different discrete non-Abelian subgroups. Precise numerical results with relative errors down to O(0.1%) suggest…
We investigate the asymptotia of decelerating and spatially flat FLRW spacetimes at future null infinity. We find that the asymptotic algebra of diffeomorphisms can be enlarged to the recently discovered Weyl-BMS algebra for asymptotically…
We study noncompact, complete, finite volume, negatively curved manifolds $M$. We construct $M$ with infinitely generated fundamental groups in all dimensions $n \geq 2$. We construct $M$ whose cusp cross sections are compact hyperbolic…
A sequence of distinct closed surfaces in a hyperbolic 3-manifold M is asymptotically geodesic if their principal curvatures tend uniformly to zero. When M has finite volume, we show such sequences are always asymptotically dense in the…
We prove that any proper, geodesic metric space whose Dehn function grows asymptotically like the Euclidean one has asymptotic cones which are non-positively curved in the sense of Alexandrov, thus are ${\rm CAT}(0)$. This is new already in…
We show that asymptotically Schwarzschildean 3-manifolds cannot contain minimal surfaces obtained by perturbative deformations of a Euclidean catenoid, no matter how small the ADM mass of the ambient space and how large the neck of the…
Uniqueness results for asymptotically locally flat and asymptotically flat $S^1$-symmetric gravitational instantons are proved using a divergence identity of the type used in uniqueness proofs for static black holes, combined with results…
We consider an asymptotically flat Riemannian spin manifold of positive scalar curvature. An inequality is derived which bounds the Riemann tensor in terms of the total mass and quantifies in which sense curvature must become small when the…
