We discuss how to define a kinematical horizon entropy on a causal set. We extend a recent definition of horizon molecules to a setting with a null hypersurface crossing the horizon. We argue that, as opposed to the spacelike case, this…
The global extendibility of smooth causal geodesically incomplete spacetimes is investigated. Denote by $\gamma$ one of the incomplete non-extendible causal geodesics of a causal geodesically incomplete spacetime $(M,g_{ab})$. First, it is…
In this article spacelike hypersurfaces immersed in twisted product spacetimes $I\times_f F$ with complete fiber are studied. Several conditions ensuring global hyperbolicity are presented, as well as a relation that needs to hold on each…
We use two ingredients to prove the hyperbolicity of generic hypersurfaces of sufficiently high degree and of their complements in the complex projective space. One is the pullbacks of appropriate low pole order meromorphic jet…
We prove that every solution of the focusing energy-critical wave equation with the compactness property is global. We also give similar results for supercritical wave and Schr\"odinger equations.
Solutions of the wave equation in a space-time containing a thin cosmic string are examined in the context of non-linear generalised functions. Existence and uniqueness of solutions to the wave equation in the Colombeau algebra G is…
This article suggests the definition of "Lorentzian space" weakening the notion of Lorentzian length spaces just as much that it allows for a functor from the category of strongly causal Lorentzian manifolds to the corresponding category of…
We study a class of time functions called uniform temporal functions in the general context of globally hyperbolic closed cone fields. We prove some existence results for uniform temporal functions, and prove the density of uniform temporal…
We obtain some results in both Lorentz and Finsler geometries, by using a correspondence between the conformal structure (Causality) of standard stationary spacetimes on $M=\R\times S$ and Randers metrics on $S$. In particular, for…
We consider (flat) Cauchy-complete GH spacetimes, i.e., globally hyperbolic flat lorentzian manifolds admitting some Cauchy hypersurface on which the ambient lorentzian metric restricts as a complete riemannian metric. We define a family of…
Consider a closed manifold $M$ with two Riemannian metrics: one hyperbolic metric, and one other metric $g$. What hypotheses on $g$ guarantee that for a given radius $r$, there are balls of radius $r$ in the universal cover of $(M, g)$ with…
In this paper, we use our results concerning temporal foliations of causal sets in order to provide a new proof of Geroch's Theorem on temporal foliations in a globally hyperbolic spacetime.
Diversities have recently been developed as multiway metrics admitting clear and useful notions of hyperconvexity and tight span. In this note we consider the analytic properties of diversities, in particular the generalizations of uniform…
It is shown that the redshift between two Cauchy surfaces in a globally hyperbolic spacetime equals the ratio of the associated contact forms on the space of light rays of that spacetime.
We prove that any simply-connected globally hyperbolic conformally flat spacetime V can be conformally embedded in a bigger conformally flat spacetime, called enveloping space of V , containing all the conformally flat Cauchy-extensions of…
We consider a Lorentzian analogue of the Ptolemy inequality and we prove that in the setting of globally hyperbolic spacetimes it is equivalent to a global timelike sectional curvature bound from above by zero. We investigate the link…
We show that a globally hyperbolic spacetime containing a trapped surface and satisfying the strong energy condition and a condition on certain radial tidal forces must be timelike geodesically incomplete. This constitutes a "timelike"…
One of the major tasks in discrete theories of gravity, including causal set theory, is to discover how the combinatorics of the underlying discrete structure recovers various geometric aspects of the emergent spacetime manifold. In this…
We introduce two notions of hyperbolicity for not necessarily K\"ahler even balanced $n$-dimensional compact complex manifolds $X$. The first, called {\it SKT hyperbolicity}, generalises Gromov's K\"ahler hyperbolicity by means of SKT…
We introduce a class of causal manifolds which contains the globally hyperbolic spacetimes and we prove global propagation theorems for sheaves on such manifolds. As an application, we solve globally the Cauchy problem for hyperfunction…
