We provide a new proof of the Riemannian Penrose inequality for time-symmetric asymptotically flat initial data with a single black-hole horizon. The proof proceeds through a newly established monotonicity formula holding along the level…

The Minkowski inequality is a classical inequality in differential geometry, giving a bound from below, on the total mean curvature of a convex surface in Euclidean space, in terms of its area. Recently there has been interest in proving…

Penrose's original heuristic for his eponymous spacetime inequality -- a conjectured lower bound on the ADM mass in terms of the area of a horizon cross-section -- relies on the black hole final state conjecture. In this paper we isolate a…

Building on previous works of H. L. Bray, of P. Miao, and of S. Almaraz, E. Barbosa, and L. L. de Lima, we develop a doubling procedure for asymptotically flat half-spaces $(M,g)$ with horizon boundary $\Sigma\subset M$ and mass…

Substatic Riemannian manifolds with minimal boundary arise naturally in General Relativity as spatial slices of static spacetimes satisfying the Null Energy Condition. Moreover, they constitute a vast generalization of nonnegative Ricci…

We prove the Riemannian Penrose conjecture, an important case of a conjecture made by Roger Penrose in 1973, by defining a new flow of metrics. This flow of metrics stays inside the class of asymptotically flat Riemannian 3-manifolds with…

In this paper we give a new general method to describe all Kaehler scalar flat metrics on $U(n)$-invariant domains of C^n in a way to be able to detect easily whether it can be completed to larger domains and which kind of ends they can…

We prove a new general Poincar\'e-type inequality for differential forms on compact Riemannian manifolds with nonempty boundary. When the boundary is isometrically immersed in Euclidean space, we derive a new inequality involving mean and…

Consider an asymptotically Euclidean initial data set with a smooth marginally trapped surface (possibly a union of future and past multi-connected components) as inner boundary. By a further development of the spinorial framework…

We show that the Penrose inequality is satisfied for a class of conformally flat axially symmetric nonmaximal perturbations of the Schwarzschild data. A role of horizon is played by a marginally outer trapped surface which does not have to…

Motivated by Perelman's Pseudo Locality Theorem for the Ricci flow, we prove that if a Riemannian manifold has Ricci curvature bounded below in a metric ball which moreover has almost maximal volume, then in a smaller ball (in a quantified…
