We prove positive mass theorem with angular momentum and charges for axially symmetric, simply connected, maximal, complete initial data sets with two ends, one designated asymptotically flat and the other either (Kaluza-Klein)…
We study Riemannian metrics on compact, torsionless, non-geometric $3$-manifolds, i.e. whose interior does not support any of the eight model geometries. We prove a lower bound "\`a la Margulis" for the systole and a volume estimate for…
In this paper, we study the limiting behavior of the Brown-York mass and Hawking mass along nearly round surfaces at infinity of an asymptotically flat manifold. Nearly round surfaces can be defined in an intrinsic way. Our results show…
We prove that the positive mass theorem applies to Lipschitz metrics as long as the singular set is low-dimensional, with no other conditions on the singular set. More precisely, let $g$ be an asymptotically flat Lipschitz metric on a…
We show that almost nonnegatively curved m-dimensional manifolds are, up to finite cover, nilpotent spaces in the sense of homotopy theory and have C(m)-nilpotent fundamental groups. We also show that up to a finite cover almost…
We prove that closed manifolds admitting a generic metric whose sectional curvature is locally quasi-constant are graphs of space forms. In the more general setting of QC spaces where sets of isotropic points are arbitrary, under suitable…
We prove a harmonic asymptotics density theorem for asymptotically flat initial data sets with compact boundary that satisfy the dominant energy condition. We use this to settle the spacetime positive mass theorem, with rigidity, for…
We prove in a simple and coordinate-free way the equivalence bteween the classical definitions of the mass or the center of mass of an asymptotically flat manifold and their alternative definitions depending on the Ricci tensor and…
We construct a cocycle that, for a given $n$-manifold, maps pairs of asymptotically locally hyperbolic (ALH) metrics to a tractor-valued $(n-1)$-form field on the conformal infinity. This requires the metrics to be asymptotically related to…
The following results are proved: Theorem 1. A totally real semiparallel submanifold of constant curvature with parallel f-structure in the normal bundle of a K\"ahler manifold N is flat or a totally geodesic submanifold of N. Theorem 2. A…
We prove a positive mass theorem for spaces which asymptotically approach a flat Euclidean space times a Calabi-Yau manifold (or any special honolomy manifold except the quaternionic K\"ahler). This is motivated by the very recent work of…
We show that the bordism group of closed 3-manifolds with positive scalar curvature (psc) metrics is trivial by explicit methods. Our constructions are derived from scalar-flat K{\"a}hler ALE surfaces discovered by Lock-Viaclovsky. Next, we…
We prove that every locally conformally flat metric on a closed, oriented hyperbolic 4-manifold with scalar curvature bounded below by -12 satisfies Schoen's conjecture. We also classify all closed Riemannian 4-manifolds of positive scalar…
Built on a recent work of Almaraz, Barbosa, de Lima on positive mass theorems on asymptotically flat manifods with a noncompact boundary, we apply free boundary minimal surface techniques to prove their positive mass theorem and study the…
We study Hawking mass and the Huisken's isoperimetric mass evaluated on surfaces with boundary. The convergence to an ADM mass defined on asymptotically flat manifold with a non-compact boundary are proved.
We consider the moduli space $\mathcal{M}_{\nu}$ of torsion-free, asymptotically conical (AC) Spin(7)-structures which are defined on the same manifold and asymptotic to the same Spin(7)-cone with decay rate $\nu<0$. We show that…
Motivated by the quasi-local mass problem in general relativity, we apply the asymptotically flat extensions, constructed by Shi and Tam in the proof of the positivity of the Brown--York mass, to study a fill-in problem of realizing…
We show that the mass of an asymptotically hyperbolic manifold with a noncompact boundary can be evaluated via the Ricci tensor and the second fundamental form by using purely coordinates. The method is analog to Miao-Tam's approach to the…
Let $X$ be a closed $3$-manifold, $\mathcal{M}_{R>0}$ the space of metrics on $X$ with positive scalar curvature, and $\text{Diff}(X)$ the group of diffeomorphisms of $X$. Marques proves the fundamental result that $\mathcal{M}_{R>0}/…
A sequence of distinct closed surfaces in a hyperbolic 3-manifold M is asymptotically geodesic if their principal curvatures tend uniformly to zero. When M has finite volume, we show such sequences are always asymptotically dense in the…
