A conformally invariant model of two interacting massless particles in Minkowski space was proposed by Casalbuoni and Gomis [1]. We generalize this model to the case of de Sitter space from the perspective of geodesic distance, in such a…
This article derives closed-form parametric formulas for the Minkowski sums of convex bodies in d-dimensional Euclidean space with boundaries that are smooth and have all positive sectional curvatures at every point. Under these conditions,…
We establish quantitative topological and singularity properties for (certain) prescribed mean curvature (PMC) hypersurfaces $V^n$ in Riemannian manifolds $(N^{n+1},h)$. Indeed, if $V$ has area at most $A>0$ with PMC given by a…
We give a new proof of the global stability of Minkowski space originally established in the vacuum case by Christodoulou and Klainerman. The new approach shows that the Einstein-vacuum and the Einstein-scalar field equations with general…
In this paper we study the singular set of Dirichlet-minimizing $Q$-valued maps from $\mathbb{R}^m$ into a smooth compact manifold $\mathcal{N}$ without boundary. Similarly to what happens in the case of single valued minimizing harmonic…
We prove an inequality of the form $\gamma_n\geq C_n(\gamma_{n-1})$ giving a lower bound for the Hermite constant $\gamma_n$ in dimension $n$ in terms of $\gamma_{n-1}$. Iterating this inequality yields a new proof of the Minkowski-Hlawka…
We compute the Hausdorff and Minkowski dimension of subsets of the symbolic space $\Sigma_m=\{0,...,m-1\}^\N$ that are invariant under multiplication by integers. The results apply to the sets $\{x\in \Sigma_m: \forall\, k, \ x_k x_{2k}...…
The classical Minkowski inequality implies that the volume of a bounded convex domain is controlled from above by the integral of the mean curvature of its boundary. In this note, we establish an analogous inequality without the convexity…
In this paper, given a finitely presented group $\Gamma$, we provide the explicit monodromy of a Lefschetz fibration with $(-1)$-sections whose total space has fundamental group $\Gamma$ by applying "twisted substitutions" to that of the…
Given a sequence $\{Z_d\}_{d\in \mathbb{N}}$ of smooth and compact hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^{n-1}$, we prove that (up to extracting subsequences) there exists a regular definable hypersurface $\Gamma\subset \mathbb{R}\mathrm{P}^n$ such…
In this paper, it is established, in the case of graphs, that time-like extremal surfaces of dimension $1+n$ in the Minkowski space of dimension $1+n+m$ can be described by a symmetric hyperbolic system of PDEs with the very simple…
We introduce the Lax-Kirchhoff moduli space associated with a finite quiver $\Gamma$ and a compact connected Lie group $G$. On each oriented edge we consider the Lax equation $\dot{A}_1 + [A_0, A_1] = 0$ and impose a Kirchhoff-type matching…
We investigate local minimizers of Ginzburg--Landau-type functionals in dimension $n\geq 3$ that satisfy logarithmic energy bounds, assuming the potential has a vacuum manifold with a finite fundamental group. We show that the normalized…
We prove global regularity, scattering and a priori bounds for the energy critical Maxwell-Klein-Gordon equation relative to the Coulomb gauge on (1+4)-dimensional Minkowski space. The proof is based upon a modified Bahouri-Gerard profile…
A suitable generalisation of the Lichnerowicz formula can relate the squares of supersymmetric operators to the effective action, the Bianchi identities for fluxes, and some equations of motion. Recently, such formulae have also been shown…
For a simply connected solvable Lie group G with a cocompact discrete subgroup {\Gamma}, we consider the space of differential forms on the solvmanifold G/{\Gamma} with values in certain flat bundle so that this space has a structure of a…
We prove that given a minimal hypersurface $\Gamma$ in a compact Riemannian manifold $M$ without boundary, if all the Jacobi fields of $\Gamma$ are generated by ambient isometries, then we can find solutions of the Allen-Cahn equation…
We discuss the four-dimensional massless spectrum of supersymmetric Minkowski compactifications of ten-dimensional heterotic supergravity, including the anomaly cancelation condition. This can be calculated from restrictions arising from…
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 lower bound on the total mass of the time slices of (n + 1)-dimensional asymptotically flat standard static spacetimes under the timelike convergence condition. The inequality can be viewed equivalently as a Minkowski-type…
