We study the generation of singularities from the initial datum for a solution of the Cauchy problem for a class of Hamilton-Jacobi equations of evolution. For such equations, we give conditions for the existence of singular generalized…
We revisit the construction of maximal initial data on compact manifolds in vacuum with positive cosmological constant via the conformal method. We discuss, extend and apply recent results of Hebey et al. [19] and Premoselli [31] which…
We consider the Cauchy problem for the Korteweg--de Vries equation with real initial data $q$ that is both $L^1$ and $L^2$ summable and supported on (0,\infty). Using the left reflection coefficient and Hankel operators on the Hardy space…
In this contribution, we study spacetimes of cosmological interest, without making any symmetry assumptions. We prove a rigid Hawking singularity theorem for positive cosmological constant, which sharpens known results. In particular, it…
Main purpose of this paper is to study the local propagation of singularities of viscosity solution to contact type evolutionary Hamilton-Jacobi equation $$ D_tu(t,x)+H(t,x,D_xu(t,x),u(t,x))=0. $$ An important issue of this topic is the…
Time-symmetric initial data for two-body solutions in three dimensional anti-deSitter gravity are found. The spatial geometry has constant negative curvature and is constructed as a quotient of two-dimensional hyperbolic space. Apparent…
We solve the Killing spinor equations of 6-dimensional (1,0)-supergravity coupled to any number of tensor, vector and scalar multiplets in all cases. The isotropy groups of Killing spinors are $Sp(1)\cdot Sp(1)\ltimes \bH (1)$, $U(1)\cdot…
Inspired by the results in a recent paper by G. Galloway and C. Vega (see arXiv:1712.00785), we investigate a number of geometric consequences of the existence of a timelike conformal Killing vector field on a globally hyperbolic spacetime…
We first prove that given a hyperbolic metric $h$ on a closed surface $S$, any flat metric on $S$ with negative singular curvatures isometrically embeds as a convex polyhedral Cauchy surface in a unique future-complete flat globally…
We consider surfaces immersed in three-dimensional pseudohermitian manifolds. We define the notion of (p-)mean curvature and of the associated (p-)minimal surfaces, extending some concepts previously given for the (flat) Heisenberg group.…
In quantum theory on curved backgrounds, Heisenberg's uncertainty principle is usually discussed in terms of ensemble variances and flat-space commutators. Here we take a different, preparation-based viewpoint tailored to sharp position…
In this paper we show the existence of a large class of spherically symmetric data $d$ (on a spacelike hypersurface $S$), from which a perfect fluid spacetime (surrounded by vacuum) develops. This spacetime contains an event horizon (with…
We establish the global-in-time existence of solutions of the Cauchy problem for the full Navier-Stokes equations for compressible heat-conducting flow in multidimensions with initial data that are large, discontinuous, spherically…
We give a complete local classification of all Riemannian 3-manifolds $(M,g)$ admitting a nonvanishing Killing vector field $T$. We then extend this classification to timelike Killing vector fields on Lorentzian 3-manifolds, which are…
For any initial datum $\theta_0\in L^{\frac{4}{3}}_x$ it is proved the existence of a global-in-time weak solution $\theta \in L^\infty_t L^{\frac43}_x$ to the surface quasi-geostrophic equation whose Hamiltonian, i.e. the…
Non-degenerate real hypersurfaces of almost Hermite-like manifolds are examined. Tangential real hypersurfaces are introduced and the main identities of such hypersurfaces are obtained. With the help of these identities, contact metric…
In this paper, we study a class of strongly degenerate ultraparabolic equations with analytic coefficients. We demonstrate that the Cauchy problem exhibits an analytic smoothing effect. This means that, with an initial datum belonging to…
We extend the results of a work by L. H\"ormander in 1990 concerning the resolution of the characteristic Cauchy problem for second order wave equations with regular first order potentials. The geometrical background of this work was a…
The Cauchy problem for the two dimensional compressible Euler equations with data in the Sobolev space $H^s(\mathbb R^2)$ is known to have a unique solution of the same Sobolev class for a short time, and the data-to-solution map is…
We prove that the surface gravity of a compact non-degenerate Cauchy horizon in a smooth vacuum spacetime, can be normalized to a non-zero constant. This result, combined with a recent result by Oliver Petersen and Istv\'an R\'acz, end up…
