We consider maps on a surface of genus $g$ with all vertices of degree at least three and positive real lengths assigned to the edges. In particular, we study the family of such metric maps with fixed genus $g$ and fixed number $n$ of faces…

We consider a convex Euclidean hypersurface that evolves by a volume or area preserving flow with speed given by a general nonhomogeneous function of the mean curvature. For a broad class of possible speed functions, we show that any closed…

We consider an inverse variational problem for the lines of constant curvature in (pseudo-)Euclidean two-, three-, and four-dimensional spaces. The accumulated results are physically meaningful in the case of relativistic mechanics of…

Complete sequences of new analytic solutions of Einstein's equations which describe thin super massive disks are constructed. These solutions are derived geometrically. The identification of points across two symmetrical cuts through a…

In this paper we introduce a family of examples that can be regarded as spaces of nonpositive curvature, but with the distinct quality that they are not complete as metric spaces. This amounts to the fact that they are modelled on a finite…

Volume comparison theorem is a type of fundamental results in Riemannian geometry. In this article, we extend the volume comparison result in \cite{Besse2008} to the comparison of total $\sigma_l$-curvature with respect to…

A recently introduced concept of complexity for relativistic fluids is extended to the vacuum solutions represented by the Bondi metric. A complexity hierarchy is established, ranging from the Minkowski spacetime (the simplest one) to…

In this study, we investigate the intrinsic properties of compact biconservative hypersurfaces in space forms. In this framework, we establish rigidity results without imposing the assumption of constant scalar curvature. Furthermore, we…

We introduce the notion of relative volume entropy for two spacetimes with preferred compact spacelike foliations. This is accomplished by applying the notion of Kullback-Leibler divergence to the volume elements induced on spacelike…

This paper extends some geometric properties of a one-parameter family of relative entropies. These arise as redundancies when cumulants of compressed lengths are considered instead of expected compressed lengths. These parametric relative…

We review some recent results about the relations among isoperimetric sets, Penrose inequalities and related concepts in the analysis of $3$-manifolds of nonnegative scalar curvature. We also show that if the isoperimetric sets of big…

We give a covariant definition of closeness between (time oriented) Lorentzian metrics on a manifold M, using a family of functions which measure the difference in volume form on one hand and the difference in causal structure relative to a…

We show the flexibility of the metric entropy and obtain additional restrictions on the topological entropy of geodesic flow on closed surfaces of negative Euler characteristic with smooth non-positively curved Riemannian metrics with fixed…

This work develops a curvature-based geometric formulation of the Euler-Poisson equations by lifting the dynamics to the 3-sphere S^3 equipped with the left-invariant metric induced by the inertia tensor. For the inertia ratio I = (2,2,1)…

We prove metric rigidity for complete manifolds supporting solutions of certain second order differential systems, thus extending classical works on a characterization of space-forms. In the route, we also discover new characterizations of…

In the conformal class of Euclidean space, we give some volume comparison theorems with help of Q-curvature. Meanwhile, for compact four dimensional manifolds with non-negative scalar curvature, we give a volume rigidity theorem with…
