We review recent progress in understanding the notion of locality in integrable quantum lattice systems. The central concept are the so-called quasilocal conserved quantities, which go beyond the standard perception of locality. Two…
For a flat universe presently dominated by static or dynamic vacuum energy, cosmological constant (LCDM) or quintessence (QCDM), we calculate the asymptotic collapsed mass fraction as function of the present ratio of smooth energy to matter…
We propose a new definition of the ADM mass for asymptotically Euclidean manifolds inspired by the definition of mass for weakly regular asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds by Gicquaud and Sakovich. This version of the mass allows one to…
In this paper, we investigate the relationship between semisolidity and locally weak quasisymmetry of homeomorphisms in quasiconvex and complete metric spaces. Our main objectives are to (1) generalize the main result in [X. Huang and J.…
Equilibrium thermodynamic laws are typically applied to horizons in general relativity without stating the conditions that bring them into equilibrium. We fill this gap by applying a new thermodynamic interpretation to a generalized…
In several areas of theoretical physics it is useful to know how a quasilocal energy transforms under conformal rescalings or generalized Kerr-Schild mappings. We derive the transformation properties of the Brown-York quasilocal energy in…
These notions in the title are of fundamental importance in any branch of physics. However, there have been great difficulties in finding physically acceptable definitions of them in general relativity since Einstein's time. I shall explain…
The masses of the elementary particles as well as their charges and spins belong to the fundamental physical constants. Presently, no fundamental theory describing them is available, so their values remain mysterious. In this work we offer…
We explore the notion of spatial extent and structure, already alluded to in earlier literature, within the formulation of quantum mechanics on the noncommutative plane. Introducing the notion of average position and its measurement, we…
We construct a general relativistic conservation law for linear and angular momentum for matter and gravitational fields in a finite volume of space that does not rely on any spacetime symmetries. This work builds on our previous…
I consider in this book a formulation of Quantum Mechanics. Usually QM is formulated based on the notion of time and space, both of which are thought a priori given quantities or notions. However, when we try to define the notion of…
In this paper we prove that over an asymptotically locally flat (ALF) Riemannian four-manifold the energy of an "admissible" SU(2) Yang--Mills is always integer. This result sharpens the previously known energy identity for such Yang--Mills…
The precise connection between the ADM and BMS formalisms is still far from being fully understood. It leads superficially to some puzzles whose resolution can provide new interesting physical insights. One example concerns the claimed…
For a universe presently dominated by static or dynamic vacuum energy, cosmological constant (LCDM) or quintessence (QCDM), we calculate the asymptotic collapsed mass fraction as function of the present ratio of vacuum energy to clustered…
Entropy and energy are found to be closely tied on our quest for quantum gravity. We point out an interesting connection between the recently proposed outer entropy, a coarse-grained entropy defined for a compact spacetime domain motivated…
Energy has an ambiguous status in general relativity. For systems embedded in asymptotically flat space-times it is possible to construct an integral invariant that corresponds to total energy, however there is no local differential…
For manifolds with a distinguished asymptotically flat end, we prove a density theorem which produces harmonic asymptotics on the distinguished end, while allowing for points of incompleteness (or negative scalar curvature) away from this…
We apply the Hawking-Hayward quasi-local energy construct to obtain in a rigorous way the turnaround radius of cosmic structures in General Relativity. A splitting of this quasi-local mass into local and cosmological parts describes the…
We generalize the notion of quasi-local charges, introduced by P. Tod for Yang--Mills fields with unitary groups, to non-Abelian gauge theories with arbitrary gauge group, and calculate its small sphere and large sphere limits both at…
We define quasi-local conserved quantities in general relativity by using the optimal isometric embedding in [26] to transplant Killing fields in the Minkowski spacetime back to the 2-surface of interest in a physical spacetime. To each…
