In hyperbolic space, the angle of intersection and distance classify pairs of totally geodesic hyperplanes. A similar algebraic invariant classifies pairs of hyperplanes in the Einstein universe. In dimension 3, symplectic splittings of a…

Our conventional system of physical units is based on local or microscopic {\it dimensional} quantities which are {\it defined}, for convenience or otherwise aesthetic reasons, to be spacetime-independent. A more general choice of units may…

In this paper, we establish some compactness results of conformally compact Einstein metrics on $4$-dimensional manifolds. Our results were proved under assumptions on the behavior of some local and non-local conformal invariants, on the…

We construct new examples of complete Einstein metrics on balls. At each point of the boundary at infinity, the metric is asymptotic to a homogeneous Einstein metric on a solvable group, which varies with the point at infinity.

This article describes some geometric invariants and conformal anomalies for conformally compact Einstein manifolds and their minimal submanifolds which have recently been discovered via the Anti-de Sitter/Conformal Field Theory…

Let $M$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold and $N$ be a subvariety with codimension greater than or equal to 2. We show that there are no complete K\"ahler--Einstein metrics on $M-N$. As an application, let $E$ be an exceptional divisor of $M$.…

In this article, we give a survey of Geometric Invariant Theory for Toric Varieties, and present an application to the Einstein-Weyl Geometry. We compute the image of the Minitwistor space of the Honda metrics as a categorical quotient…

We obtain a compactness result for various classes of Riemannian metrics in dimension four; in particular our method applies to anti-self-dual metrics, Kahler metrics with constant scalar curvature, and metrics with harmonic curvature. With…

We present a local classification of conformally equivalent but oppositely oriented 4-dimensional Kaehler metrics which are toric with respect to a common 2-torus action. In the generic case, these "ambitoric" structures have an intriguing…

We present isocapacitary characterizations of Sobolev inequalities in very general metric measure spaces.

On $4$-symmetric symplectic spaces, invariant almost complex structures -- up to sign -- arise in pairs. We exhibit some $4$-symmetric symplectic spaces, with a pair of "natural" compatible (usually not positive) invariant almost complex…

We classify four-dimensional connected simply-connected indecomposable Lorentzian symmetric spaces $M$ with connected nontrivial isotropy group furnishing solutions of the Einstein-Yang-Mills equations. Those solutions with respect to some…

We calculate Chow quotients of some families of symmetric \(T\)-varieties. In complexity two we obtain new examples of K\"ahler-Einstein metrics by bounding the symmetric alpha invariant of their orbifold quotients. As an additional…

We generalise the notions of supersymmetry and superspace by allowing generators and coordinates transforming according to more general Lorentz representations than the spinorial and vectorial ones of standard lore. This yields novel…

We prove local polyhomogeneity of asymptotically real or complex hyperbolic Einstein metrics, with application to unique continuation problems.

We prove that $T^2$-invariant Einstein metrics with non-negative sectional curvature on a four-manifold are locally symmetric.

The classification of Riemannian manifolds by the holonomy group of their Levi-Civita connection picks out many interesting classes of structures, several of which are solutions to the Einstein equations. The classification has two parts.…

We give an alternative description of the physical content of general relativity that does not require a Lorentz invariant spacetime. Instead, we find that gravity admits a dual description in terms of a theory where local size is…

An indecomposable Lie group with Riemannian bi-invariant metric is always simple and hence Einstein. For indefinite metrics this is no longer true, not even for simple Lie groups. We study the question of whether a semi-Riemannian…

Einstein spacetimes in 5d that are of genuine type II in the null alignment classification are considered. It is shown that the unique geodesic multiple Weyl aligned null direction (mWAND) cannot have an optical matrix of rank 1 or 3. This…
