In this paper a generalisation of the notion of polarity is exhibited which allows to completely describe, in an incidence-geometric way, the linear complexes of $h$-subspaces. A generalised polarity is defined to be a partial map which…
In this paper, we study self-expanding solutions for mean curvature flows and their relationship to minimal cones in Euclidean space. In [18], Ilmanen proved the existence of self-expanding hypersurfaces with prescribed tangent cones at…
In this paper, we show the existence and non-existence of minimizers of the following minimization problems which include an open problem mentioned by Horiuchi and Kumlin in 2012: \begin{align*} G_a := \inf_{u \in W_0^{1,N}(\Omega )…
In 2006 P. Coulton and Y. Movshovich established an unfamilar but note-worthy general property of simple, polygonal, open arcs in the plane. We give a new and quite different proof of this property, and we consider a few generalizations.
A marginally outer trapped hypersurface is a generalization of minimal hypersurfaces originated from general relativity. We show a curvature estimate for stable marginally outer trapped hypersurfaces up to the free boundary satisfying a…
In a series of papers (Lombardi & Schneider 2001, 2002) we studied in detail the statistical properties of an interpolation technique widely used in astronomy. In particular, we considered the average interpolated map and its covariance…
This study examines the compatibility of the generalized holographic equipartition proposed in ref \cite{sheykhi2013friedmann} with the maximization of horizon entropy in an (n + 1)-dimensional non-flat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW)…
We present an alternative scheme of finding apparent horizons based on spectral methods applied to Robinson-Trautman spacetimes. We have considered distinct initial data such as representing the spheroids of matter and the head-on collision…
A framework is developed in which one can write down the constraint equations on a three--dimensional hypersurface of arbitrary signature. It is then applied to isolated and dynamical horizons. The derived equations can be used to extract…
Gradients of the perimeter and area of a polygon have straightforward geometric interpretations. The use of optimality conditions for constrained problems and basic ideas in triangle geometry show that polygons with prescribed area…
If $X \subset \mathbb P^n$ is a reduced subscheme, we say that $X$ admits an unexpected hypersurface of degree $t$ for multiplicity $m$ if the imposition of having multiplicity $m$ at a general point $P$ fails to impose the expected number…
In this note, we prove that every even regular multigraph on $n$ vertices with multiplicity at most $r$ and minimum degree at least $rn/2 + o(n)$ has a Hamilton decomposition. This generalises a result of Vaughan who proved an asymptotic…
The Shapley-Folkman theorem shows that Minkowski averages of uniformly bounded sets tend to be convex when the number of terms in the sum becomes much larger than the ambient dimension. In optimization, Aubin and Ekeland [1976] show that…
We prove the two theorems of the title, settling two long standing questions in the local theory of singular minimal hypersurfaces. The sharpness of either result is with respect to its hypothesis on the size of the allowable singular sets.…
Vacuum asymptotically flat Robinson-Trautman spacetimes are a well known class of spacetimes exhibiting outgoing gravitational radiation. In this paper we describe a method of locating the past apparent horizon in these spacetimes, and…
In this paper we establish effective lower bounds on the degrees of the Debarre and Kobayashi conjectures. Then we study a more general conjecture proposed by Diverio-Trapani on the ampleness of jet bundles of general complete intersections…
In this note we study the topology of 3-dimensional initial data sets with horizons of a sort associated with asymptotically locally anti-de Sitter spacetimes. We show that, within this class, those initial data sets which contain no…
We first show that the intrinsic, geometrical structure of a dynamical horizon is unique. A number of physically interesting constraints are then established on the location of trapped and marginally trapped surfaces in the vicinity of any…
Weak isolated horizon boundary conditions have been relaxed supposedly to their weakest form such that both zeroth and the first law of black hole mechanics still emerge, thus making the formulation more amenable for applications in both…
We established a hyperplane restriction theorem for the local holomorphic mappings between projective spaces, which is inspired by the corresponding theorem of Green for homogeneous ideals in polynomial rings. Our theorem allows us to give…
