We give a full classification of complete rotationally invariant surfaces with constant Gauss curvature in Berger spheres: they are either Clifford tori, which are flat, or spheres of Gauss curvature $K \geq K_0$ for a positive constant…

In this work we consider the evolution of a massive scalar field in cylindrically symmetric space-times. Quasinormal modes have been calculated for static and rotating cosmic cylinders. We found unstable modes in some cases. Rotating as…

A special case of the main result states that a complete $1$-connected Riemannian manifold $(M^n,g)$ is isometric to one of the models $\mathbb R^n$, $S^n(c)$, $\mathbb H^n(-c)$ of constant curvature if and only if every $p\in M^n$ is a…

We prove that, in Minkowski space, if a spacelike, $(n-1)$-convex hypersurface $M$ with constant $\sigma_{n-1}$ curvature has bounded principal curvatures, then $M$ is convex. Moreover, if $M$ is not strictly convex, after an…

A stratified bundle is a vector bundle which is a D-module. We show that regular singularity of stratified bundles on smooth varieties in positive characteristic is preserved by pullback and that regular singularity can be checked on…

In this paper we study the existence of periodic orbits in the flow of non-singular steady Euler fields $X$ on closed 3-manifolds, that is $X$ is a solution of time independent Euler equations. We show, that when $X$ is $C^2$ the flow…

Euler's rotation theorem states that any reconfiguration of a rigid body with one of its points fixed is equivalent to a single rotation about an axis passing through the fixed point. The theorem forms the basis for Chasles' theorem which…
