We study conformally flat surfaces with prescribed Gaussian curvature, described by solutions $u$ of the PDE: $\Delta u(x)+K(x)\exp(2u(x))=0$, with $K(x)$ the Gauss curvature function at $x\in\RR^2$. We assume that the integral curvature is…
In this paper, we study the deformation of the 2 dimensional convex surfaces in $\R^{3}$ whose speed at a point on the surface is proportional to $\alpha$-power of positive part of Gauss Curvature. First, for 1/2<\alpha\leq 1$, we show that…
We generalize the local surface counterterm prescription suggested in Einstein gravity for higher derivative (HD) and Weyl gravities. Explicitly, the surface counterterm is found for three- and five-dimensional HD gravities. As a result,…
We consider general relativity with cosmological constant minimally coupled to electromagnetic field and assume that four-dimensional space-time manifold is the warped product of two surfaces with Lorentzian and Euclidean signature metrics.…
For a spherically symmetric self-gravitating scalar field we study self similar and quasi-self similar solutions in asymptotically flat and AdS spacetimes in various dimensions. Our main approach relies on reducing the Einstein-Klein-Gordon…
We prove the equality case of the Penrose inequality in all dimensions for asymptotically flat hypersurfaces. It was recently proven by G. Lam that the Penrose inequality holds for asymptotically flat graphical hypersurfaces in Euclidean…
Consider a random smooth Gaussian field $G(x):F\to\mathbb{R}$, where $F$ is a compact in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We derive a formula for average area of a surface generated by the equation $G(x)=0$ and give some applications. As an auxiliary result…
The aim of this paper is to verify that the study of generic conformally flat hypersurfaces in 4-dimensional space forms is reduced to a surface theory in the standard 3-sphere. The conformal structure of generic conformally flat…
In this paper, we consider the contracting curvature flow of smooth closed surfaces in $3$-dimensional hyperbolic space and in $3$-dimensional sphere. In the hyperbolic case, we show that if the initial surface $M_0$ has positive scalar…
The classical result of Cauchy's surface area formula states that the surface area of the boundary $\partial K=\Sigma$ of any $n$-dimensional convex body in the $n$-dimensional Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n$ can be obtained by the average…
We prove that if an asymptotically Schwarzschildean 3-manifold (M,g) contains a properly embedded stable minimal surface, then it is isometric to the Euclidean space. This implies, for instance, that in presence of a positive ADM mass any…
In this note, we prove mass-capacity inequalities for asymptotically flat manifolds whose boundary capacity potential satisfies an overdetermined problem, referred to as critical area-normalized capacitors. As a consequence, we obtain…
In this article we extend several foundational results of the theory of complete minimal surfaces of finite index in the Euclidean space to minimal surfaces in asymptotically flat manifolds and, more generally, to marginally outer-trapped…
In this review, we summarize recent findings that show how standard 4-d Einstein gravity coupled to a conformal field theory can become massive in Anti de Sitter Space. Key ingredients in this phenomenon are non-standard ``transparent''…
