For the general class of pseudo-Finsler spaces with $(\alpha,\beta)$-metrics, we establish necessary and sufficient conditions such that these admit a Finsler spacetime structure. This means that the fundamental tensor has Lorentzian…

We discuss static spherically symmetric metrics which represent non-singular black holes in four- and higher-dimensional spacetime. We impose a set of restrictions, such as a regularity of the metric at the center $r=0$ and Schwarzschild…

We develop the basics of a theory of almost isometries for spaces endowed with a quasi-metric. The case of non-reversible Finsler (more specifically, Randers) metrics is of particular interest, and it is studied in more detail. The main…

For a weighted tree, the Lin--Lu--Yau Ricci curvature admits an explicit formula in terms of the edge weights. Consequently, the constant-curvature equation is equivalent to an eigenvalue problem for an edge-indexed Ricci matrix $R_T$.…

Let $X$ be a Fano manifold of dimension at least $2$ and $D$ be a smooth divisor in a multiple of the anticanonical class, $\frac1\alpha(-K_X)$ with $\alpha>1$. It is well-known that K\"ahler-Einstein metrics on $X$ with conic singularities…

In this paper, the geometric meaning of (alpha,beta)-norms is made clear. On this basis, we introduce a new class of Finsler metrics called general (alpha,beta)-metrics, which are defined by a Riemannian metric and an 1-form. These metrics…

In this work we consider periodic spherically symmetric metrics of constant positive scalar curvature on the n-dimensional cylinder called pseudo-cylindric metrics. These metrics belong to the conformal class $[g_0]$ of the Riemannian…

Any oriented $4$-dimensional Einstein metric with semi-definite sectional curvature satisfies the pointwise inequality \[ \frac{|s|}{\sqrt{6}}\geq|W^+|+|W^-|, \] where $s$, $W^+$ and $W^-$ are respectively the scalar curvature, the…

By using Stationary-to-Randers correspondence (SRC), a characterization of light and time-convexity of the boundary of a region of a standard stationary (n+1)-spacetime is obtained, in terms of the convexity of the boundary of a domain in a…

In this paper, we study constant scalar curvature K\"ahler (cscK) metrics on complete non-compact K\"ahler--Einstein manifolds. We give sufficient conditions under which a cscK perturbation of a K\"ahler--Einstein metric must remain…

Unique continuation results are proved for metrics with prescribed Ricci curvature in the setting of bounded metrics on compact manifolds with boundary, and in the setting of complete, conformally compact metrics. Related to this issue, an…

In this paper, the Douglas curvature of (\alpha,\beta)-metrics, a special class of Finsler metrics defined by a Riemannian metric \alpha and a 1-form \beta, is studied. These metrics with vanishing Douglas curvature in dimension n\geq3 are…

There are two definitions of Einstein-Finsler spaces introduced by Akbar-Zadeh, which we will show is equal along the integral curves of $I$-invariant projective vector fields. The sub-algebra of the $C$-projective vector fields, leaving…

Consider an essentially nonbranching metric measure space with the measure contraction property of Ohta and Sturm, or with a Ricci curvature lower bound in the sense of Lott, Sturm and Villani. We prove a sharp upper bound on the inscribed…

This essay is about how to construct a new Einstein metric by an old one. Given an Einstein metric $\alpha$ and its Killing $1$-form $\beta$, donote $b:=\|\beta\|_{\alpha}$, we aim to determined the deformation factors $e^{\rho(b^2)}$ and…

General $(\alpha, \beta)$ norms are an important class of Minkowski norms which contains the original $(\alpha, \beta)$ norms. In this note, by studying the behavior of the Darboux curves of the indicatrix, we give a characterization of…

Recently, wind Riemannian structures (WRS) have been introduced as a generalization of Randers and Kropina metrics. They are constructed from the natural data for Zermelo navigation problem, namely, a Riemannian metric $g_R$ and a vector…

A Finsler metric is geodesically reversible if geodesics remain geodesics after a change of orientation. Asymmetric norms on vector spaces and Funk metrics in the interior of convex bodies are examples of geodesically reversible metrics…

In this article we develop some new existence results for the Einstein constraint equations using the Lichnerowicz-York conformal rescaling method. The mean extrinsic curvature is taken to be an arbitrary smooth function without…
