We show that complete conformally flat manifolds of dimension n>2 with nonnegative Ricci curvature enjoy nice rigidity properties: they are either flat, or locally isometric to a product of a sphere and a line, or are globally conformally…

The symmetry dimension of a geometric structure is the dimension of its symmetry algebra. We investigate symmetries of almost quaternionic structures of quaternionic dimension $n$. The maximal possible symmetry is realized by the…

This paper establishes two things in an asymptotically (anti-)de Sitter spacetime, by direct computations in the physical spacetime (i.e. with no involvement of spacetime compactification): (1) The peeling property of the Weyl spinor is…

In this paper we derive a refined asymptotic expansion, near an isolated singularity, for conformally flat metrics with constant positive Q-curvature and positive scalar curvature. The condition that the metric has constant Q-curvature…

We establish several nonuniqueness results for the problem of finding complete conformal metrics with constant (fourth-order) $Q$-curvature on compact and noncompact manifolds of dimension $\geq5$. Infinitely many branches of metrics with…

In this paper, we establish some compactness results of conformally compact Einstein metrics on $4$-dimensional manifolds. Our results were proved under assumptions on the behavior of some local and non-local conformal invariants, on the…

Symmetries of spacetimes with null dust field as a source compatible with asymptotic flatness are studied by using the Bondi-Sachs-van der Burg formalism. It is shown that in an axially symmetric spacetime with null dust field in which at…

We review the role that infinite-dimensional symmetries arising at the boundary of asymptotically flat spacetimes play in the context of the celestial holography program. Once recast into the language of conformal field theory, asymptotic…

The purpose of this note is to characterize the asymptotic dimension $asdim(X)$ of metric spaces $X$ in terms similar to Property A of Yu: If $(X,d)$ is a metric space and $n\ge 0$, then the following conditions are equivalent: [a.]…

We prove the existence of a large class of asymptotically flat initial data with non-vanishing mass and angular momentum for which the metric and the extrinsic curvature have asymptotic expansions at space-like infinity in terms of powers…

Let $(M,g_0)$ be a closed Riemannian manifold of dimension $n \geq 25$ with positive Yamabe invariant $Y(M,g_0)>0$ and positive fourth-order invariant $Y_4(M,g_0)>0$. We show that, arbitrarily $C^1$-close to $g_0$, there exists a Riemannian…

Asymptotic symmetries in Carrollian gravitational theories in 3+1 space and time dimensions obtained from "magnetic" and "electric" ultrarelativistic contractions of General Relativity are analyzed. In both cases, parity conditions are…
