Null infinity in asymptotically flat spacetimes posses a rich mathematical structure; including the BMS group and the Bondi news tensor that allow one to study gravitational radiation rigorously. However, FLRW spacetimes are not…
Given a pair of normally hyperbolic operators over (possibily different) globally hyperbolic spacetimes on a given smooth manifold, the existence of a geometric isomorphism, called {\em M{\o}ller operator}, between the space of solutions is…
We describe the geometry of the R x SO(3) x SO(6) x U(1) invariant half-BPS M-theory configurations considered in LLM in terms of their electrostatic variables. We discuss both regular configurations, such as AdS_4 x S^7 and AdS_7 x S^4…

We investigate the asymptotic symmetries of General Relativity at spatial infinity within the first-order formalism described by the Holst action. Employing the covariant phase space method, we propose a set of relaxed boundary conditions…
Let ${\bf H}_{\mathbb C}^n$ be the $n$-dimensional complex hyperbolic space and ${\rm SU}(n,1)$ be the (holomorphic) isometry group. An element $g$ in ${\rm SU}(n,1)$ is called loxodromic or hyperbolic if it has exactly two fixed points on…
We extend the work of Schwarz [1] to show that bound states of type IIB supersymmetric ($p, q$)-strings on a circle are associated with M2-branes irreducibly wrapped on $T^2$, or equivalently with nontrivial worldvolume fluxes. Beyond this…
In this work we show that, under certain conditions, parametric Backlund transformations (BTs) for a finite dimensional integrable system can be interpreted as solutions to the equations of motion defined by an associated non-autonomous…
The asymptotic symmetry of an isolated gravitating system, or the Bondi-Metzner-Sachs (BMS) group, contains an infinite-dimensional subgroup of supertranslations. Despite decades of study, the difficulties with the "supertranslation…
Many structural transformations involve a group-nonsubgroup relationship between the initial and transformed phases, and hence are beyond the purview of conventional Landau theory. We utilize a systematic and robust methodology to describe…
We consider the isomonodromy problems for flat $G$-bundles over punctured elliptic curves $\Sigma_\tau$ with regular singularities of connections at marked points. The bundles are classified by their characteristic classes. These classes…
The 3D Bondi-Metzner-Sachs (BMS$_3$) algebra that is the asymptotic symmetry algebra at null infinity of the $1+2$D asymptotically flat space-time is isomorphic to the $1+1$D Carrollian conformal algebra. Building on this connection,…
Generalized BMS (gBMS) is the Lie group of the asymptotic symmetries at null infinity, and is proposed to be a symmetry of the quantum S-matrix. Despite much progress in understanding the symplectic structure at null infinity consistent…
The ordering problem in quantum systems with position-dependent mass (PDM) is treated by inclusion of the classically fictitious similarity transformation into the kinetic term. This provides a generation of supersymmetry with the first…

In this paper we present a weighted $L_p$-theory of parabolic systems on a half space. The leading coefficients are assumed to be only measurable in $t$ and have small bounded mean oscillations (BMO) with respect to $x$, and the lower order…
We study the modular transformation properties of Euclidean solutions of 3D gravity whose asymptotic geometry has the topology of a torus. These solutions represent saddle points of the grand canonical partition function with an important…
Binary symmetry constraints are applied to constructing B\"acklund transformations of soliton systems, both continuous and discrete. Construction of solutions to soliton systems is split into finding solutions to lower-dimensional Liouville…
A Margulis spacetime is a complete affine 3-manifold M with nonsolvable fundamental group. Associated to every Margulis spacetime is a noncompact complete hyperbolic surface S. We show that every Margulis spacetime is orientable, even…
