We prove rigidity results involving the Hawking mass for surfaces immersed in a $3$-dimensional, complete Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ with non-negative scalar curvature (resp. with scalar curvature bounded below by $-6$). Roughly, the main…
We study Riemannian manifolds $(M^n,g)$ with mean-convex boundary whose Ricci curvature is nonnegative in a spectral sense. Our first main result is a sharp spectral extension of a rigidity theorem by Kasue: we prove that under the…
The configuration manifold $M$ of a mechanical system consisting of two unconstrained rigid bodies in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\geq 1$, is a manifold with boundary (typically with singularities.) A complete description of the system requires…
We consider a parabolic problem with Robin boundary condition which arises when the edge of a micro-electro-mechanical-system (MEMS) device is connected with a flexible nonideal support. Then via a rigorous analysis we investigate the…
We consider a non-autonomous Cauchy problem involving linear operators associated with time-dependent forms $a(t;.,.):V\times V\to {\mathbb{C}}$ where $V$ and $H$ are Hilbert spaces such that $V$ is continuously embedded in $H$. We prove…
We prove two rigidity results for a variational infinity ground state $u$ of an open bounded convex domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$. They state that $u$ coincides with a multiple of the distance from the boundary of $\Omega$ if either…
In this paper, we study a partially overdetermined mixed boundary value problem in a half ball. We prove that a domain in which this partially overdetermined problem admits a solution if and only if the domain is a spherical cap…
This work deals with the system $(-\Delta)^m u= a(x) v^p$, $(-\Delta)^m v=b(x) u^q$ with Dirichlet boundary condition in a domain $\Omega\subset\RR^n$, where $\Omega$ is a ball if $n\ge 3$ or a smooth perturbation of a ball when $n=2$. We…
We consider the question whether a static potential on an asymptotically flat 3-manifold can have nonempty zero set which extends to the infinity. We prove that this does not occur if the metric is asymptotically Schwarzschild with nonzero…
Our work proves rigidity theorems for initial data sets associated with compact smooth spin manifolds with boundary and with compact convex polytopes, subject to the dominant energy condition. For manifolds with smooth boundary, this is…
Inspired by the study of $V$-static manifold about classification, in this article, we apply the recent results obtained by Freitas and Gomes (Compact gradient Einstein-type manifolds with boundary, 2022) to prove the rigidity results for…
Developing A.D. Aleksandrov's ideas, the first-named author of this article proposed the following approach to study of rigidity problems for the boundary of a $C^0$-submanifold in a smooth Riemannian manifold: Let $Y_1$ be a 2-dimensional…
We provide a general B\"ochner type formula which enables us to prove some rigidity results for $V$-static spaces. In particular, we show that an $n$-dimensional positive static triple with connected boundary and positive scalar curvature…
In this paper we generalize the main result of [4] for manifolds that are not necessarily Einstein. In fact, we obtain an upper bound for the volume of a locally volume-minimizing closed hypersurface $\Sigma$ of a Riemannian 5-manifold $M$…
We establish a rigidity theorem for annular sector-like domains in the setting of overdetermined elliptic problems on model Riemannian manifolds. Specifically, if such a domain admits a solution to the inhomogeneous Helmholtz equation…
We study Riemannian manifolds with boundary under a lower Ricci curvature bound, and a lower mean curvature bound for the boundary. We prove a volume comparison theorem of Bishop-Gromov type concerning the volumes of the metric…
We investigate static metrics on simple manifolds with compact boundary and establish an Obata-type rigidity theorem. We identify new sufficient geometric conditions under which the combined curvature map $g\mapsto (R_g, H_g)$ is a local…
This paper studies a new set of mixed boundary conditions in Euclidean quantum gravity. These involve, in particular, Robin boundary conditions on the perturbed 3-metric and hence lead, by gauge invariance, to Robin conditions on the whole…
We show that the Euclidean 3-space $\mathbb{R}^3$ is stable for the Positive Mass Theorem in the following sense. Let $(M_i,g_i)$ be a sequence of complete asymptotically flat $3$-manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature and suppose that…
We consider asymptotically flat Riemannian manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature that are conformal to $\R^{n}\setminus \Omega, n\ge 3$, and so that their boundary is a minimal hypersurface. (Here, $\Omega\subset \R^{n}$ is open…
