The doubling conjecture predicts that a manifold admits positive scalar curvature with mean convex boundary if and only if its double admits positive scalar curvature. We show that it holds true for manifolds where the inclusion of the…

A metric space $X$ is called uniformly acyclic if there there exists an {\it acyclicty control function} $R=R(r)=R_X(r)\geq r $, $0\leq r <\infty$, such that the homology inclusion homomorphisms between the balls around all points $x\in X$,…

In this short paper, we review recent progress on the positive mass theorem for spacelike hypersurfaces which approach to null infinity in asymptotically flat spacetimes. We use it to prove, if the functions $c(u, \theta, \psi)$, $d(u,…

In this paper we study M-theory compactifications on seven-dimensional manifolds with SU(3) structure. As such manifolds naturally pick out a specific direction, the resulting effective theory can be cast into a form which is similar to…

We prove the existence of compact surfaces with prescribed constant mean curvature in asymptotically flat and asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds. More precisely, let $(M^3,g)$ be an asymptotically flat manifold with scalar curvature $R\ge…

In this paper, we study the Minkowski-type inequality for asymptotically flat static manifolds $(M^{n}, g)$ with boundary and with dimension $ n < 8$ that was establishedby McCormick. First, we show that any asymptotically flat static…
