We characterize the class of Gromov hyperbolic spaces, whose boundary at infinity allow canonical M\"obius structures.
We prove that a globally hyperbolic spacetime with its causality relation is a bicontinuous poset whose interval topology is the manifold topology. This provides an abstract mathematical setting in which one can study causality independent…
We present a basic introduction to the theories of M\"obius structures and hyperbolic ends and we study their applications to the theory of $k$-surfaces in $3$-dimensional hyperbolic space.
The paper initiates a systematic study of Moebius structures and Ptolemy spaces. We conjecture that every compact Ptolemy space with circles and many space inversions is Moebius equivalent to the boundary at infinity of a rank one symmetric…
A non-elementary M\"obius group generated by two-parabolics is determined up to conjugation by one complex parameter and the parameter space has been extensively studied. In this paper, we use the results of \cite{GW} to obtain an…
A list of all possible causal relations in the $2$-dimensional Minkowski space $M$ is exhausted, based on the duality between timelike and spacelike in this particular case, and thirty topologies are introduced, all of them encapsulating…
The group of conformal diffeomorphisms and the group of causal automorphisms on two-dimensional globally hyperbolic spacetimes are clarified. It is shown that if spacetimes have non-compact Cauchy surfaces, then the groups are subgroups of…
Let $\Sigma$ be a connected, oriented surface with punctures and negative Euler characteristic. We introduce wild globally hyperbolic anti-de Sitter structures on $\Sigma \times \mathbb{R}$ and provide two parameterisations of their…
De Sitter spacetime can be separated into two parts along two kinds of hypersurfaces and the half-de Sitter spacetimes are covered by the planar and hyperbolic coordinates respectively. Two positive energy theorems were proved previously…
We study geometry of two-dimensional models of conformal space-time based on the group of Moebius transformation. The natural geometric invariants, called cycles, are used to linearise Moebius action. Conformal completion of the space-time…
The Vahlen group gives a way for presenting the hyperbolic space of every dimension of a group acting via M\"{o}bius transformations. As Vahlen groups and paravector Vahlen groups are now defined over any field of characteristic different…
We give an exact mathematical construction of a spacelike order $<$, which is dual to the standard chronological order $\ll$ in the $n$-dimensional Minkowski space $M^n$, and we discuss its order-theoretic, geometrical as well as its…
We give a solution to the inverse problem of Moebius geometry on the circle. Namely, we describe a class of Moebius structures on the circle for each of which there is a hyperbolic space such that its boundary at infinity is the circle, and…
The boundary of a M\"obius manifold carries a canonical M\"obius structure. This enables one to define the cobordism group of $n$-dimensional (closed) M\"obius manifolds. The purpose of this note is to show that the cobordism group of…
The Groups of causal and conformal automorphisms of globally hyperbolic spacetimes were studied. In two dimensions, we prove that all globally hyperbolic spacetimes that are directed and connected are causally isomorphic. We work out the…
Globally hyperbolic spacetimes admitting infinitely many causal (and timelike) homotopy classes of curves joining two prescribed points, are exhibited and discussed.
Let $\Sigma$ be a connected, oriented surface with punctures and negative Euler characteristic. We introduce regular globally hyperbolic anti-de Sitter structures on $\Sigma \times \mathbb{R}$ and provide two parameterisations of their…
Given a (d+1)-dimensional spacetime (M,g), one can consider the set N of all its null geodesics. If (M,g) is globally hyperbolic then this set is naturally a smooth (2d-1)-manifold. The sky of an event x in M is the set X of all null…
Timelike geodesics on a hyperplane orthogonal to the symmetry axis of the G\"odel spacetime appear to be elliptic-like if standard coordinates naturally adapted to the cylindrical symmetry are used. The orbit can then be suitably described…
This thesis consists of two parts. The first part deals with gauge/gravity duality in the context of anti de Sitter (AdS) spacetimes with de Sitter (dS) boundary, which can be used to study issues concerning strongly coupled field theory on…
