We discuss the properties of a large number N of one-dimensional (bounded) locally periodic potential barriers in a finite interval. We show that the transmission coefficient, the scattering cross section $\sigma$, and the resonances of…
Spacetime, understood as a globally hyperbolic manifold, may be characterized by spectral data using a 3+1 splitting into space and time, a description of space by spectral triples and by employing causal relationships, as proposed earlier.…
We prove that the maximal development of any spherically symmetric spacetime with collisionless matter (obeying the Vlasov equation) or a massless scalar field (obeying the massless wave equation) and possessing a constant mean curvature…
We establish a dispersive estimate (with a decay of 1/t), valid for all times, for the Schroedinger evolution on a non-compact 2-dimensional manifold with a trapped geodesic.
In this paper we consider a layer of incompressible viscous fluid lying above a flat periodic surface in a uniform gravitational field. The upper boundary of the fluid is free and evolves in time. We assume that a mass of surfactants…
The effective theory of the Anton-Schmidt cosmic fluid within the Debye approximation is investigated. In this picture, the universe is modeled out by means of a medium without cosmological constant. In particular, the Anton-Schmidt…
The Witten spinorial argument has been adapted in several works over the years to prove positivity of mass in the asymptotically AdS and asymptotically hyperbolic settings in arbitrary dimensions. In this paper we prove a scalar curvature…
We expand on the idea that spacetime signature should be treated as a dynamical degree of freedom in quantum field theory. It has been argued that the probability distribution for signature, induced by massless free fields, is peaked at the…
We consider the consistent deformation of the relativistic quantum mechanics introducing the noncommutativity of the space-time and preserving the Lorentz symmetry. The relativistic wave equation describing the spinning particle on…
New boundary conditions for asymptotically flat spacetimes are given at spatial infinity. These boundary conditions are invariant under the BMS group, which acts non trivially. The boundary conditions fulfill all standard consistency…
The evolution of open systems, subject to both Hamiltonian and dissipative forces, is studied by writing the $nm$ element of the time ($t$) dependent density matrix in the form \ber \rho_{nm}(t)&=& \frac {1}{A} \sum_{\alpha=1}^A \gamma…
Inspired by asymptotically flat manifolds, we introduce the concept of asymptotically flat graphs and define the discrete ADM mass on them. We formulate the discrete positive mass conjecture based on the scalar curvature in the sense of…
We applied the theory of regularly varying functions to the analysis of the cosmological parameters for the $\Lambda$CDM model with the matter dominated evolution. Carroll et al. proved in 1992 that for this type of universe with the…
For axisymmetric evolution of isolated systems, we prove that there exists a gauge such that the total mass can be written as a positive definite integral on the spacelike hypersurfaces of the foliation and the integral is constant along…
Using an approximate solution to the $N$-body problem in general relativity, and the \emph{principle of local isotropy at any point}, we construct a cosmological model, with zero curvature, for a universe composed uniquely by collision-less…
We develop a probabilistic framework for large-scale dimension bounds in metric geometry, based on padded decompositions, randomized ball carving on net graphs, and the Lov\'asz Local Lemma. For metric measure spaces with volume doubling…
In this article, we study complete surfaces $\Sigma$, isometrically immersed in the product space $\mathbb{H}^2\times\mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{S}^2\times\mathbb{R}$ having positive extrinsic curvature $K_e$. Let $K_i$ denote the intrinsic…
Due to the absence of symmetries under time and spatial translations in a general curved spacetime, the energy and momentum of matter is not conserved as it is in flat space. This means, for example, that the flux of matter energy through a…
The properties of a stationary massless string endowed with intrinsic spin are discussed. The spacetime is Minkowskian geometrically but the topology is nontrivial due to the horizon located on the surface $r=0$, similar with Rindler's…
The large time $t$ asymptotics for scalar, constant coefficient,linear, third order, dispersive equations are obtained for asymptotically time-periodic Dirichlet boundary data and zero initial data on the half-line modeling a wavemaker…
