For each parameter $a>1$, the critical hyperbolic catenoid $\Sigma_a$ is a rotationally symmetric, free boundary minimal annulus in a geodesic ball $B^3(r(a))\subset\mathbb{H}^3$. The Morse index of $\Sigma_a$ is at least $4$ by Medvedev…
The STAR collaboration at the RHIC facility has recently announced the exciting discovery of direct evidence for extremely large vorticity in the Quark-Gluon Plasma generated in peripheral collisions, seen in the form of global polarization…
Assuming that the universe is homogenous and isotropic and applying Gauss' flux theorem for gravity, it follows that the gravitational field of the visible universe can be calculated as if the entire mass of the visible universe is located…
Every closed hyperbolic geodesic $\gamma$ on the triply--punctured sphere $M =\widehat{{\mathbb C}} - \{0,1,\infty\}$ has a self--intersection number $I(\gamma) \ge 1$ and a combinatorial length $L(\gamma) \ge 2$, the latter defined by the…
We give an explicit estimate of the distance of a closed, connected, oriented and immersed hypersurface of a space form to a geodesic sphere and show that the spherical closeness can be controlled by a power of an integral norm of the…
A metric space $(X,d)$ is said to be $\delta$-hyperbolic if $d(x,y)+d(z,w)$ is at most $\max(d(x,z)+d(y,w), d(x,w)+d(y,z))$ by $2 \delta$. A geodesic space is $\delta$-slim if every geodesic triangle $\Delta(x,y,z)$ is $\delta$-slim. It is…
Consider balls $\Lambda_n$ of growing volumes in the $d$-dimensional hierarchical lattice, and place edges independently between each pair of vertices $x\neq y\in\Lambda_n$ with probability $1-\exp(-\beta J(x, y) )$ where $J(x, y) \asymp \|…
The geodesic length spectrum of a complete, finite volume, hyperbolic 3-orbifold M is a fundamental invariant of the topology of M via Mostow-Prasad Rigidity. Motivated by this, the second author and Reid defined a two-dimensional analogue…
We investigate the geodesic motions of a massive particle and light ray in the hyperplane orthogonal to the symmetry axis in the 5-dimensional hypercylindrical spacetime. The class of the solutions depends on one constant a which is the…
The geodesic distance between points in real hyperbolic space is a hypermetric, and hence is a kernel negative type. The proof given here uses an integral formula for geodesic distance, in terms of a measure on the space of hyperplanes. An…
We examine isothermal dark matter halos in hydrostatic equilibrium with a cosmological constant Lambda =Omega_\Lambda rho_{crit}c^2, where Omega_\Lambda=0.7, and rho_{crit} is the present value of the critical density with h=0.65. The…
We show the equivalence of several characterizations of relative hyperbolicity for metric spaces, and obtain extra information about geodesics in a relatively hyperbolic space. We apply this to characterize hyperbolically embedded subgroups…
The Horndeski gauge-gravity coupling is the leading non-minimal interaction between gravity and gauge bosons, and it preserves all the symmetries and the number of physical degrees of freedom of the standard model of particle physics and…
This paper deals with the intersection point process of a stationary and isotropic Poisson hyperplane process in $\mathbb{R}^d$ of intensity $t>0$, where only hyperplanes that intersect a centred ball of radius $R>0$ are considered. Taking…
In this paper we show that totally geodesic subspaces determine the commensurability class of a standard arithmetic hyperbolic $n$-orbifold, $n\ge 4$. Many of the results are more general and apply to locally symmetric spaces associated to…
Consider the geodesic flow on a real-analytic closed hypersurface $M$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$, equipped with the standard Euclidean metric. The flow is entirely determined by the manifold and the Riemannian metric. Typically, geodesic flows are…
We study Voronoi percolation on a large class of $d$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds, which includes the hyperbolic spaces $\mathbb{H}^d$, $d\geq 2$. We prove that as the intensity $\lambda$ of the underlying Poisson point process tends to…
We present a quantitative version of Guessing Geodesics, which is a well-known theorem that provides a set of conditions to prove hyperbolicity of a given metric space. This version adds to the existing result by determining an explicit…
The acceleration parameter defined through the local volume expansion is negative for a pressureless, irrotational fluid with positive energy density. In the presence of inhomogeneities or anisotropies the volume expansion rate results from…
The main goal of this work is to prove that a very generic surface of degree at least 21 in complex projective 3-dimensional space is hyperbolic in the sense of Kobayashi. This means that every entire holomorphic map $f:{\Bbb C} \to X$ to…
