We investigate the geometric properties of lightlike surfaces in the Minkowski space $\R^{2,1}$, using Cartan's method of moving frames to compute a complete set of local invariants for such surfaces. Using these invariants, we give a…

We combine functional analytic and geometric viewpoints on approximate Birkhoff and isosceles orthogonality in generalized Minkowski spaces which are finite-dimensional vector spaces equipped with a gauge. This is the first approach to…

In this paper we parallelly build up the theories of normed linear spaces and of linear spaces with indefinite metric, called also Minkowski spaces for finite dimensions in the literature. In the first part of this paper we collect the…

Let $C$ be a pointed closed convex cone in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with vertex at the origin $o$ and having nonempty interior. The set $A\subset C$ is $C$-coconvex if the volume of $A$ is finite and $A^{\bullet}=C\setminus A$ is a closed convex set.…

We study the constraint equations for the Einstein-scalar field system on compact manifolds. Using the conformal method we reformulate these equations as a determined system of nonlinear partial differential equations. By introducing a new…

A minimal space-like surface in Minkowski space-time is said to be of general type if it is free of degenerate points. The fact that minimal space-like surfaces of general type in Minkowski space-time admit canonical parameters of the first…

The classical Minkowski formula is extended to spacelike codimension-two submanifolds in spacetimes which admit "hidden symmetry" from conformal Killing-Yano two-forms. As an application, we obtain an Alexandrov type theorem for spacelike…

We consider a functional $\mathcal F$ on the space of convex bodies in $\R^n$ defined as follows: ${\mathcal F}(K)$ is the integral over the unit sphere of a fixed continuous functions $f$ with respect to the area measure of the convex body…

We consider a different $L^p$-Minkowski combination of compact sets in $\mathbb{R}^n$ than the one introduced by Firey and we prove an $L^p$-Brunn-Minkowski inequality, $p \in [0,1]$, for a general class of measures called convex measures…

We relate a free scalar field in the Minkowski spacetime with a scalar field with a certain scaling dimension on a sphere of codimension two. This is realised by first performing a Radon transform of the ``bulk" field on the Minkowski space…
