In this article, we estimate the quasi-local energy with reference to the Minkowski spacetime [16,17], the anti-de Sitter spacetime [4], or the Schwarzschild spacetime [3]. In each case, the reference spacetime admits a conformal…

In this paper we give a new general method to describe all Kaehler scalar flat metrics on $U(n)$-invariant domains of C^n in a way to be able to detect easily whether it can be completed to larger domains and which kind of ends they can…
