In this paper, we construct a family of asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds with horizons and with scalar curvature equal to -6. The manifolds we constructed can be arbitrary close to anti-de Sitter-Schwarzschild manifolds at infinity.…

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 show that it is possible to perturb arbitrary vacuum asymptotically flat spacetimes to new ones having exactly the same energy and linear momentum, but with center of mass and angular momentum equal to any preassigned values measured…

There exists in General Relativity an unambiguous notion of Mass associated to asymptotically flat spacetimes known as the ADM mass. The standard expression for the same is a surface integral over spatial infinity of a linear combination of…

We consider 1 spacelike Killing vector field reductions of 4-d vacuum general relativity. We restrict attention to cases in which the manifold of orbits of the Killing field is $R^{3}$. The reduced Einstein equations are equivalent to those…

We complete the proof of the Generalized Smale Conjecture, apart from the case of $RP^3$, and give a new proof of Gabai's theorem for hyperbolic 3-manifolds. We use an approach based on Ricci flow through singularities, which applies…

Hamilton's pinching conjecture, that three-dimensional complete non-compact manifolds with pinched Ricci curvature are flat, has recently been resolved using Ricci flow. In this paper we prove a direct analogue of that result in all…

In this paper we give an asymptotic formula for a matrix integral which plays a crucial role in the approach of Diaconis et al. to random matrix eigenvalues. The choice of parameter for the asymptotic analysis is motivated by an invariant…

The Eisenhart problem of finding parallel tensors is solved for the symmetric case in the regular $f$-Kenmotsu framework. On this way, the Olszack-Rosca example of Einstein manifolds provided by $f$-Kenmotsu manifolds via locally symmetric…

We prove that the Bondi mass of an asymptotically flat, vacuum, spacetime cannot become negative in any even dimension $d \ge 4$. The notion of Bondi mass is more subtle in $d > 4$ dimensions because radiating metrics have a slower decay…
