We consider the porous medium equation (PME) on complete noncompact manifolds $M$ of nonnegative Ricci curvature. We require nonparabolicity of the manifold and construct a natural space $X$ of functions, strictly larger than $L^1$, in…
In this paper we prove the basic facts for pluricomplex Green functions on manifolds. The main goal is to establish properties of complex manifolds that make them analogous to relatively compact or hyperconvex domains in Stein manifolds.…
A positive mass theorem for General Relativity Theory is proved. The proof is 4-dimensional in nature, and relies completely on arguments pertaining to causal structure, the basic idea being that positive energy-density focuses null…
We affirm the rigidity conjecture of the spacetime positive mass theorem in dimensions less than eight. Namely, if an asymptotically flat initial data set satisfies the dominant energy condition and has $E=|P|$, then $E=|P|=0$, where $(E,…
This article addresses the construction and analysis of the Green's function for the Neumann boundary value problem associated with the operator $-\Delta + a$ on a smooth bounded domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$ ($N \geq 3$) with $a\in…
The purpose of this paper is to find optimal estimates for the Green function of a half-space of {\it the relativistic $\alpha$-stable process} with parameter $m$ on $\Rd$ space. This process has an infinitesimal generator of the form…
We study the Neumann Green's function for second order parabolic systems in divergence form with time-dependent measurable coefficients in a cylindrical domain $\mathcal{Q}=\Omega\times (-\infty,\infty)$, where $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^n$…
We establish distortion estimates in completely solvable Lie groups, using a sublinear bilipschitz retraction constructed by Cornulier, and interpolating between two theorems of Osin. This provides new lower bounds on Dehn functions. Our…
We study the Green function for the stationary Stokes system with bounded measurable coefficients in a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^n$, $n\ge 3$. We construct the Green function in $\Omega$ under the condition…
In light of the Suita conjecture, we explore various rigidity phenomena concerning the Bergman kernel, logarithmic capacity, Green's function, and Euclidean distance and volume.
We prove a Riemannian positive mass theorem for asymptotically flat spin manifolds with hypersurface singularities. Unlike earlier results, some components of the singular set may be mean-concave, provided that other components of the…
There is a class of Laplacian like conformally invariant differential operators on differential forms $L^\ell_k$ which may be considered the generalisation to differential forms of the conformally invariant powers of the Laplacian known as…
We establish a fixed point theorem for mappings of square matrices of all sizes which respect the matrix sizes and direct sums of matrices. The conclusions are stronger if such a mapping also respects matrix similarities, i.e., is a…
Green's functions with continuum spectra are a way of avoiding the strong bounds on new physics from the absence of new narrow resonances in experimental data. We model such a situation with a five-dimensional model with two branes along…
We describe briefly a new approach to some problems related to Teichm\"uller spaces, invariant metrics, and extremal quasiconformal maps. This approach is based on the properties of plurisubharmonic functions, especially of the…
Using the off-shell formulation for ${\cal N}=2$ conformal supergravity in four dimensions, we describe superconformal higher-spin multiplets of conserved currents in a curved background and present their associated unconstrained gauge…
We study the equations of conformal gravity, as given by Mannheim, in the weak field limit, so that a linear approximation is adequate. Specializing to static fields with spherical symmetry, we obtain a second-order equation for one of the…
We define the "sum of squares of the wavelengths" of a Riemannian surface (M,g) to be the regularized trace of the inverse of the Laplacian. We normalize by scaling and adding a constant, to obtain a "mass", which is scale invariant and…
We discuss conformally covariant differential operators, which under local rescalings of the metric, \delta_\sigma g^{\mu\nu} = 2 \sigma g^{\mu\nu}, transform according to \delta_\sigma \Delta = r \Delta \sigma + (s-r) \sigma \Delta for…
