Special relativity corresponds to hyperbolic geometry at constant velocity while the so-called general relativity corresponds to hyperbolic geometry of uniformly accelerated systems. Generalized expressions for angular momentum, centrifugal…
First, we extend the special relativity into the superluminal case and put forward a superluminal theory of kinematics, in which we show that the temporal coordinate need exchanging with one of the spatial coordinates in a superluminal…
We compute Teitelboim's causal propagator in the context of canonical loop quantum gravity. For the Lorentzian signature, we find that the resultant power series can be expressed as a sum over branched, colored two-surfaces with an…
We review recent progress on two closely related sets of questions concerning convex co-compact hyperbolic manifolds, or convex domains in those manifolds, such as their convex core. The first set of questions is to what extent the…
We study the uniform boundedness of solutions to reaction-diffusion systems possessing a Lyapunov-like function and satisfying an {\it intermediate sum condition}. This significantly generalizes the mass dissipation condition in the…
We define a new type of transformation for Lorentzian manifolds characterized by mapping every causal future-directed vector onto a causal future-directed vector. The set of all such transformations, which we call causal symmetries, has the…
In this paper, we study a mean curvature type flow with capillary boundary in a horoball in hyperbolic space. Our flow preserves the volume of the bounded domain enclosed by the hypersurface and monotonically decreases the energy…
We show that for any uniformly bounded in time $H^1\cap L^1$ solution of the dispersive generalized Benjamin-Ono equation, the limit infimum, as time $t$ goes to infinity, converges to zero locally in an increasing-in-time region of space…
It has been observed earlier that, in principle, it is possible to obtain a quantum mechanical interpretation of higher order quantum cosmological models in the spatially homogeneous and isotropic background, if auxiliary variable required…
In this paper we provide a geometric condition satisfied by certain closed subsets of the Riemann sphere which implies that their hyperbolic convex hulls in $\mathbb{H}^3$ have infinite volume. As a corollary, we characterize continua in…
A universal inequality that bounds the angular momentum of a body by the square of its size is presented and heuristic physical arguments are given to support it. We prove a version of this inequality, as consequence of Einstein equations,…
Consider the motion of a charged, point particle moving in the complement of a Poisson distribution of hard sphere scatterers in two dimensions under the effect of a fixed magnetic field. Building on, and extending a coupling method…
We consider the field theory of $N$ massless bosons which are free except for an interaction localized on the boundary of their 1+1 dimensional world. The boundary action is the sum of two pieces: a periodic potential and a coupling to a…
The Teichm\"uller space $\mathcal{T}_S(\mathbf{b})$ of hyperbolic metrics on a surface $S$ with fixed lengths at the boundary components is symplectic. We prove that any sum of infinitesimal earthquakes on $S$ that is tangent to…
We obtain bounds on hyperbolic volume for periodic links and Conway sums of alternating tangles. For links that are Conway sums we also bound the hyperbolic volume in terms of the coefficients of the Jones polynomial.
We present a Hilbert space perspective to homogenization of standard linear evolutionary boundary value problems in mathematical physics and provide a unified treatment for (non-)periodic homogenization problems in thermodynamics,…
We use symplectic techniques to obtain partial results on Mahler's conjecture about the product of the volume of a convex body and the volume of its polar. We confirm the conjecture for hyperplane sections or projections of $\ell_p$-balls…
We consider reaction-diffusion equations driven by the $p$-Laplacian on noncompact, infinite volume manifolds assumed to support the Sobolev inequality and, in some cases, to have $L^2$ spectrum bounded away from zero, the main example we…
It is shown that every algebraic quantum field theory has an underlying functorial field theory which is defined on a suitable globally hyperbolic Lorentzian bordism pseudo-category. This means that globally hyperbolic Lorentzian bordisms…
Let $S$ be a connected surface possibly with boundary, $\mu$ a finite Borel measure which is positive on open sets and $f:S\to S$ a homeomorphism preserving $\mu$. We prove that if $K$ is a compact connected subset of $S$ and $L$ is a…
