We prove an existence theorem for the sliding boundary variant of the Plateau problem for $2$-dimensional sets in $\mathbb{R}^n$. The simplest case of sufficient condition is when $n=3$ and the boundary $\Gamma$ is a finite disjoint union…

We show the existence of solution for some classes of nonlocal problems. Our proof combines the presence of sub and supersolution with the pseudomonotone operators theory.

We consider a left-invariant (sub-)Lorentzian structure on a Lie group. We assume that this structure is defined by a closed convex salient cone in the corresponding Lie algebra and a continuous antinorm associated with this cone. We derive…

We investigate a parabolic-elliptic system for maps $(u,v)$ from a compact Riemann surface $M$ into a Lorentzian manifold $N\times{\mathbb{R}}$ with a warped product metric. That system turns the harmonic map type equations into a parabolic…

The subject of limit curve theorems in Lorentzian geometry is reviewed. A general limit curve theorem is formulated which includes the case of converging curves with endpoints and the case in which the limit points assigned since the…

Carnot groups are distinguished spaces that are rich of structure: they are those Lie groups equipped with a path distance that is invariant by left-translations of the group and admit automorphisms that are dilations with respect to the…

Menger's theorem says that, for $k\ge0$, if $S, T$ are sets of vertices in a graph $G$, then either there are $k + 1$ vertex-disjoint paths between $S$ and $T$, or there is a set X of at most $k$ vertices such that every $S$-$T$ path passes…

Supersymmetric solutions of supergravity theories, and consequently metrics with special holonomy, have played an important role in the development of string theory. We describe how a Lorentzian manifold is either completely reducible, and…

We prove, for the relativistic Boltzmann equation in the homogeneous case, on the Minkowski space-time, a global in time existence and uniqueness theorem. The method we develop extends to the cases of some curved space-times such as the…

On compact manifolds which are not simply connected, we prove the existence of "fake" solutions to the optimal transportion problem. These maps preserve volume and arise as the exponential of a closed 1 form, hence appear geometrically like…

An important, if relatively less well known aspect of the singularity theorems in Lorentzian Geometry is to understand how their conclusions fare upon weakening or suppression of one or more of their hypotheses. Then, theorems with modified…
