The stationary points of the total scalar curvature functional on the space of unit volume metrics on a given closed manifold are known to be precisely the Einstein metrics. One may consider the modified problem of finding stationary points…
The Minkowski product of unit quaternion sets is introduced and analyzed, motivated by the desire to characterize the overall variation of compounded spatial rotations that result from individual rotations subject to known uncertainties in…
In an earlier paper, we studied solutions g to convolution equations of the form a_d*g^{*d}+a_{d-1}*g^{*(d-1)}+...+a_1*g+a_0=0, where a_0, ..., a_d are given arithmetic functions associated with Dirichlet series which converge on some right…
We study Yang-Baxter deformations of 4D Minkowski spacetime. The Yang-Baxter sigma model description was originally developed for principal chiral models based on a modified classical Yang-Baxter equation. It has been extended to coset…
We present Lie-algebraic deformations of Minkowski space with undeformed Poincar\'{e} algebra. These deformations interpolate between Snyder and $\kappa$-Minkowski space. We find realizations of noncommutative coordinates in terms of…
For every Finsler metric $F$ we associate a Riemannian metric $g_F$ (called the Binet-Legendre metric). The transformation $F \mapsto g_F$ is $C^0$-stable and has good smoothness properties, in contrast to previous constructions. The…
We prove that an isometric immersion of a simply connected Riemannian surface M in four-dimensional Minkowski space, with given normal bundle E and given mean curvature vector H \in \Gamma(E), is equivalent to a normalized spinor field…
The Orlicz-Brunn-Minkowski theory receives considerable attention recently, and many results in the $L_p$-Brunn-Minkowski theory have been extended to their Orlicz counterparts. The aim of this paper is to develop Orlicz $L_{\phi}$ affine…
The horospherical $p$-Christoffel-Minkowski problem was posed by Li and Xu (2022) as a problem prescribing the $k$-th horospherical $p$-surface area measure of $h$-convex domains in hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^{n+1}$. It is a natural…
In this paper, we prove a generalized Minkowski inequality holds for any smooth, $(k-1)$-convex, starshaped domain $\Omega.$ Our proof relies on the solvability of the degenerate $k$-Hessian equation on the exterior domain $\mathbb…
In the following paper, one studies, given a bounded, connected open set $\Omega$ $\subseteq$ R n , $\kappa$ > 0, a positive Radon measure $\mu$ 0 in $\Omega$ and a (signed) Radon measure $\mu$ on $\Omega$ satisfying $\mu$($\Omega$) = 0 and…
We show that given a real number $p<1$, a positive integer $n$ and a proper subspace $H$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$, the measure on the Euclidean sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}$, which is concentrated in $H$ and whose restriction to the class of Borel…
We study the existence of surfaces with constant or prescribed Gauss curvature in certain Lorentzian spacetimes. We prove in particular that every (non-elementary) 3-dimensional maximal globally hyperbolic spatially compact spacetime with…
Minkowski spacetime exhibits infrared instability in projectable Ho\v rava gravity in (3+1) dimensions. To be phenomenologically viable, the instability should be either hidden by other time-dependent processes such as the Hubble expansion…
In this article, we study the coupling of the Einstein field equations of general relativity to a family of models of nonlinear electromagnetic fields. The family comprises all covariant electromagnetic models that satisfy the following…
We introduce and study deformation $T_{{\bf b},\phi}$ of Minkowski norms in $\mathbb{R}^n$, determined by a set ${\bf b}=(\beta_1,\ldots,\beta_p)$ of linearly independent 1-forms and a smooth positive function $\phi$ of $p$ variables. In…
Conformally invariant wave equations in de Sitter space, for scalar and vector fields, are introduced in the present paper. Solutions of their wave equations and the related two-point functions, in the ambient space notation, have been…
One hundred years ago, in 1908, Hermann Minkowski completed his proof that Maxwell's equations are covariant under Lorentz transformations. During this process, he introduced a four-dimensional space called the Minkowskian space. In 1949,…
We prove three results in this paper. First, we prove for a wide class of functions $\varphi\in C^2(\mathbb{S}^{n-1})$ and $\psi(X, \nu)\in C^2(\mathbb{R}^{n+1}\times\mathbb{H}^n),$ there exists a unique, entire, strictly convex, spacelike…
Minkowski space is a physically important space-time for which the finding an adequate holographic description is an urgent problem. In this paper we develop further the proposal made in hep-th/0303006 for the description as a duality…
