We construct self-similar, axisymmetric, time-independent solutions to Einstein's field equations for an isothermal gas with a flat rotation curve in the equatorial plane. The metric scales as $ds^2 \to a^2 ds^2$ under the transformation…

This paper concerns the inverse spectral problem for analytic simple surfaces of revolution. By `simple' is meant that there is precisely one critical distance from the axis of revolution. Such surfaces have completely integrable geodesic…

Geodesics escape is widely used to study the scattering of hyperbolic equations. However, there are few progresses except in a simply connected complete Riemannian manifold with nonpositive curvature. We propose a kind of complete…
