We prove that any compact Cauchy horizon with constant non-zero surface gravity in a smooth vacuum spacetime is a smooth Killing horizon. The novelty here is that the Killing vector field is shown to exist on both sides of the horizon. This…

A Killing submersion is a Riemannian submersion from an orientable 3-manifold to an orientable surface whose fibers are the integral curves of a unit Killing vector field in the 3-manifold. We classify all Killing submersions over…

We propose a general Noetherian approach to Rellich integral identities. Using this method we obtain a higher order Rellich type identity involving the polyharmonic operator on Riemannian manifolds admitting homothetic transformations. Then…

We study 4-dimensional second-Chern-Einstein almost-Hermitian manifolds. In the compact case, we observe that under a certain hypothesis the Riemannian dual of the Lee form is a Killing vector field. We use that observation to describe…

We consider almost Riemann solitons $(V,\lambda)$ in a Riemannian manifold and underline their relation to almost Ricci solitons. When $V$ is of gradient type, using Bochner formula, we explicitly express the function $\lambda$ by means of…

Given a K\"ahler manifold $M$ endowed with a Hamiltonian Killing vector field $Z$, we construct a conical K\"ahler manifold $\hat{M}$ such that $M$ is recovered as a K\"ahler quotient of $\hat{M}$. Similarly, given a hyper-K\"ahler manifold…

We study complete scalar-flat Kahler manifolds with a Killing field and a mild asymptotic condition. We show that topological and geometric rigidities exist that powerfully restrict the manifold's behavior at infinity. We create a rough…

This paper investigates timelike conformal vector fields on closed Lorentzian $3$-manifolds and shows that, although these fields form a broader class than Killing fields, their behavior in dimension three is nonetheless remarkably rigid.…

We prove that the intrinsic geometry of compact cross-sections of any vacuum extremal horizon must admit a Killing vector field. If the cross-sections are two-dimensional spheres, this implies that the most general solution is the extremal…
