We consider a small, metastable maximum vacuum expectation value $b_0$ of order of a few eV, for a pseudoscalar Goldstone-like field, which is related to the scalar inflaton field $\phi$ in an idealized model of a cosmological,…

We prove that, starting at an initial metric $g(0)=e^{2u_0}(dx^2+dy^2)$ on $\mathbb{R}^2$ with bounded scalar curvature and bounded $u_0$, the Ricci flow $\partial_t g(t)=-R_{g(t)}g(t)$ converges to a flat metric on $\mathbb{R}^2$.

In this paper the application of the $M$-projective curvature tensor in the general theory of relativity has been studied. Firstly, we have proved that an $M$-projectively flat quasi-Einstein spacetime is of a special class with respect to…

We study blow-up sequences of Ricci shrinkers without global curvature assumptions based at points $q$ at which the scalar curvature satisfies a Type I bound, proving that their $\mathbb{F}$-limits split a line. In the four-dimensional case…

We consider solutions (M,g(t)), 0 <= t <T, to Ricci flow on compact, four dimensional manifolds without boundary. We prove integral curvature estimates which are valid for any such solution. In the case that the scalar curvature is bounded…

We consider complete (possibly non-compact) three dimensional Riemannian manifolds (M,g) such that: a) (M,g) is non-collapsed, b) the Ricci curvature of (M,g) is bounded from below, c) the geometry of (M,g) at infinity is not too extreme.…

We present a construction of a (d+2)-dimensional Ricci-flat metric corresponding to a (d+1)-dimensional relativistic fluid, representing holographically the hydrodynamic regime of a (putative) dual theory. We show how to obtain the metric…

The main objective of this paper is to control the geometry of null cones with time foliation in Einstein vacuum spacetime under the assumptions of small curvature flux and a weaker condition on the deformation tensor for $\bT$. We…

The geodesic motion in a Lorentzian spacetime can be described by trajectories in a $3-$dimensional Riemannian metric. In this article we present a generalized Jacobi metric obtained from projecting a Lorentzian metric over the directions…

This article is devoted to the study of new exact analytical solutions in the background of Reissner-Nordstr\"{o}m space-time by using gravitational decoupling via minimal geometric deformation approach. To do so, we impose the most general…

How should one define metric space notions of convergence for sequences of spacetimes? Since a Lorentzian manifold does not define a metric space directly, the uniform convergence, Gromov-Hausdorff (GH) convergence, and Sormani-Wenger…

We consider a Lorentzian metric in $\mathbb{R}\times\mathbb{R}^n$. We show that if we know the lengths of the space-time geodesics starting at $(0,y,\eta)$ when $t=0$, then we can recover the metric at $y$. We prove the rigidity of…
