We give a sufficient condition, with no restrictions on the mean curvature, under which the conformal method can be used to generate solutions of the vacuum Einstein constraint equations on compact manifolds. The condition requires a…
In this short note, we give a construction of solutions to the Einstein constraint equations using the well known conformal method. Our method gives a result similar to the one in [15, 16, 24], namely existence when the so called TT-tensor…
In this paper, we demonstrate the existence of positive solutions for certain weakly coupled elliptic systems of sublinear growth under homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. Our findings generalize existing results related to sublinear…
We extend the study of the vacuum Einstein constraint equations on manifolds with ends of cylindrical type initiated by Chru\'sciel and Mazzeo by finding a class of solutions to the fully coupled system on such manifolds. We show that given…
Some systems of nonlinear wave equations admit global solutions for all sufficiently small initial data, while others do not. The (classical) null condition guarantees that such a result holds, but it is too strong to capture certain…
The conformal method has been effective for parametrizing solutions to the Einstein constraint equations on closed 3-manifolds. However, it is still not well-understood; for example, existence of solutions to the conformal equations for…
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…
We consider positive solutions to semilinear elliptic problems with singular nonlinearities, under zero Dirichlet boundary condition. We exploit a refined version of the moving plane method to prove symmetry and monotonicity properties of…

We study a semilinear elliptic equation with a pure power nonlinearity with exponent $p>1$, and provide sufficient conditions for the existence of positive solutions. These conditions involve expected exit times from the domain, $D$, where…
Existence and non-existence results are established for quasilinear elliptic problems with nonlinear boundary conditions and lack of compactness. The proofs combine variational methods with the geometrical feature, due to the competition…
We provide new results on the existence, non-existence and multiplicity of non-negative radial solutions for semilinear elliptic systems with Neumann boundary conditions on an annulus. Our approach is topological and relies on the classical…
In this article we continue our effort to do a systematic development of the solution theory for conformal formulations of the Einstein constraint equations on compact manifolds with boundary. By building in a natural way on our recent work…
Within a semiclassical framework, we investigate spherically symmetric solutions of the Einstein equations that (i) develop a trapped region within a finite time as measured by distant observers, and (ii) remain sufficiently regular at the…
We consider a semilinear elliptic equation in a bounded domain with zero boundary conditions. The nonlinearity is discontinuous and monotone, but it is not a Carath\'eodory's function. The existence theorem has been proved.
Approximate asymptotic conditions on the motion of compact, electrically charged particles are derived within the framework of general relativity using the Einstein- Infeld-Hoffmann (EIH) surface integral method. While superficially similar…
We consider in this paper the nonlinear elliptic equation with Neumann boundary condition \begin{align*} \begin{cases} \Delta u=a|u|^{m-1}u\,\,\mbox{ in }\,\,\rnp\\ \dfrac{\partial u}{\partial t}=b|u|^{\eta-1}u+f\,\,\mbox{ on…
Recent works by the second author and Maxwell et al. have shown that the Einstein-scalar field conformal constraint equations are highly complex and generally intractable, even in the vacuum case. In this article, to gain a clearer…
For each set of (freely chosen) seed data, the conformal method reduces the Einstein constraint equations to a system of elliptic equations, the conformal constraint equations. We prove an admissibility criterion, based on a (conformal)…
The aim of this article is to prove an "almost" global existence result for some semilinear wave equations in the plane outside a bounded convex obstacle with the Neumann boundary condition.
