We single out a notion of staticity which applies to any domain in hyperbolic space whose boundary is a non-compact totally umbilical hypersurface. For (time-symmetric) initial data sets modeled at infinity on any of these latter examples,…
A non-linear gravitational model with a multidimensional geometry and quadratic scalar curvature is considered. For certain parameter ranges, the extra dimensions are stabilized if the internal spaces have negative curvature. As a…
In this appendix to our paper with the same title posted on arxiv we give a quick proof of an inequality that can be substituted to Hastings's result, quoted as Lemma 1.9 in our previous paper. Our inequality is less sharp but also appears…
We investigate the set a) of positive, trace preserving maps acting on density matrices of size N, and a sequence of its nested subsets: the sets of maps which are b) decomposable, c) completely positive, d) extended by identity impose…
Spherically symmetric spacetimes admit the so-called Kodama vector, which provides a locally conserved current and a preferred time even for dynamical spacetime without any time translation symmetry. A charge associated with this conserved…
We use the inverse mean curvature flow to establish Penrose-type inequalities for time-symmetric Einstein-Maxwell initial data sets which can be suitably embedded as a hypersurface in Euclidean space $\mathbb R^{n+1}$, $n\geq 3$. In…
We prove that positive solutions of the superlinear Lane-Emden system in a two-dimensional smooth bounded domain are bounded independently of the exponents in the system, provided the exponents are comparable. As a consequence, the energy…
Lower-dimensionality at higher energies has manifold theoretical advantages as recently pointed out. Moreover, it appears that experimental evidence may already exists for it - a statistically significant planar alignment of events with…
A time dependent geometry outside a spherically symmetric mass is proposed. The source has zero energy density but nonzero radial and tangential pressures. The time variable is interpreted as the duration of measurement performed upon the…
We establish a Penrose-Like Inequality for general (not necessarily time symmetric) initial data sets of the Einstein equations which satisfy the dominant energy condition. More precisely, it is shown that the ADM energy is bounded below by…
We derive new positivity bounds at finite momentum transfer, assuming a large separation between the mass $m$ of the lightest particle in the effective theory and the mass gap $M$ to new heavy states. Massive gravity parametrically violates…
{\sl A Hamiltonian framework for 2+1 dimensional gravity coupled with matter (satisfying positive energy conditions) is considered in the asymptotically flat context. It is shown that the total energy of the system is non-negative,…
We show that the borderline cases in the proof of the positive energy theorem for initial data sets, on spin manifolds, in dimensions $n\ge 3$, are only possible for initial data arising from embeddings in Minkowski space-time.
An asymmetry exists between time and space in the sense that physical systems inevitably evolve over time whereas there is no corresponding ubiquitous translation over space. The asymmetry, which is presumed to be elemental, is represented…
Snyder's quantum space-time which is Lorentz invariant is investigated. It is found that the quanta of space-time have a positive mass that is interpreted as a positive real mass gap of space-time. This mass gap is related to the minimal…
We show how to reduce the general formulation of the mass-angular momentum inequality, for axisymmetric initial data of the Einstein equations, to the known maximal case whenever a geometrically motivated system of equations admits a…
The paper considers the problem of finding the metric of space time around a rotating, weakly gravitating body. Both external and internal metric tensors are consistently found, together with an appropriate source tensor. All tensors are…
We establish a Positive Mass Theorem for initial data sets of the Einstein equations having generalized trapped surface boundary. In particular we answer a question posed by R. Wald concerning the existence of generalized apparent horizons…
We consider soft nonlocal deformations of massless theories that introduce a mass gap. By use of a renormalization scheme that preserves the ultraviolet softness of the deformation, renormalized quantities of low mass dimension, such as…
We extend Witten's spinor proof of the positive mass theorem to large classes of complete asymptotically flat non-spin manifolds, including all manifolds of dimension less than or equal to 11 and all manifolds of dimension less than 26…
