In the framework of Lorentzian multiply warped products we study the magnetically charged Gibbons-Maeda-Garfinkle-Horowitz-Strominger (GMGHS) interior spacetime in the string frame. We also investigate geodesic motion in various…
We give necessary and sufficient conditions for warped product manifolds with 1-dimensional base, and in particular, for generalized Robertson-Walker spacetimes, to satisfy some generalized Einstein metric condition. We also construct…
A natural one codimension isometric embedding of each $(n+1)$-dimensional spherical Robertson-Walker (RW) spacetime $I\times_f \mathbb{S}^n$ in $(n+2)$-dimensional Lorentz-Minkowski spacetime $\mathbb{L}^{n+2}$ permits to contemplate…
We develop area and volume comparison theorems for the evolution of spacelike, acausal, causally complete hypersurfaces in Lorentzian manifolds, where one has a lower bound on the Ricci tensor along timelike curves, and an upper bound on…
In this note, we prove the existence of one particular class of starshaped compact hypersurfaces, by deriving global curvature estimates for such hypersurfaces; this generalizes the main result in [Hypersurfaces of prescribed mixed…
A generalized Robertson-Walker spacetime is the warped product with base an open interval of the real line endowed with the opposite of its metric and base any Riemannian manifold. The family of generalized Robertson-Walker spacetimes…
In this paper, we investigate Einstein hypersurfaces of the warped product $I\times_{f}\mathbb{Q}^{n}(c)$, where $\mathbb{Q}^{n}(c)$ is a space form of curvature $c$. We prove that $M$ has at most three distinct principal curvatures and…
We derive electrically charged black hole solutions of the Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet equations with a nonlinear electrodynamics source in $n (\ge 5)$ dimensions. The spacetimes are given as a warped product $M^2 \times K^{n-2}$, where $K^{n-2}$…
This study aims mainly at investigating the effects of concircular flatness and concircular symmetry of a warped product manifold on its fibre and base manifolds. Concircularly flat and concircularly symmetric warped product manifolds are…
In general relativity, time functions are crucial objects whose existence and properties are intimately tied to the causal structure of a spacetime and also to the initial value formulation of the Einstein equations. In this work we…
We show that many Lorentzian manifolds of dimension >2 do not admit a spacelike codimension-one foliation, and that almost every manifold of dimension >2 which admits a Lorentzian metric at all admits one which satisfies the dominant energy…
In this paper, using the remarkable orthonormal wavelet basis constructed recently by Auscher and Hyt\"onen, we establish the theory of product Hardy spaces on spaces ${\widetilde X} = X_1\times X_2\times\cdot \cdot\cdot\times X_n$, where…
We study the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker cosmological model to investigate non-smooth curvatures associated with multiple discontinuities involved in the evolution of the universe, by exploiting Lorentzian warped product scheme. Introducing…
In the present work some generalizations of the Hawking singularity theorems in the context of $f(R)$ theories are presented. The assumptions are of these generalized theorems is that the matter fields satisfy the conditions…
In this conference published in 1997 some problems on the geodesics of a Lorentzian manifold concerning causality and infinite-dimensional variational methods, are pointed out. Even though a big progress on many of these questions have been…
A global existence theorem, with respect to a geometrically defined time, is shown for Gowdy symmetric globally hyperbolic solutions of the Einstein-Vlasov system for arbitrary (in size) initial data. The spacetimes being studied contain…
We study a class of higher dimensional warped Einstein spacetimes with one extra dimension. These were originally identified by Brinkmann as those Einstein spacetimes that can be mapped conformally on other Einstein spacetimes, and have…
We construct a canonical formulation of general relativity for the case of a timelike foliation of spacetime. The formulation possesses explicit covariance with respect to Lorentz transformations in the tangent space. Applying the loop…
We formulate and prove a synthetic Lorentzian Cartan-Hadamard theorem. This result both transfers the corresponding statement for locally convex metric spaces established by S. Alexander and R. Bishop to the Lorentzian setting, and…
For warped products with harmonic curvature, nonconstant warping functions $\phi$, and compact two-dimensional bases $(M,h)$, we establish a dichotomy: either the Gaussian curvature $K$ of the metric $g=\phi^{-2}h$ is constant and negative,…
