We discuss various properties of rotating Killing horizons in generic $F(R)$ theories of gravity in dimension four for spacetimes endowed with two commuting Killing vector fields. Assuming there is no curvature singularity anywhere on or…

We study the geometry induced on the local orbit spaces of Killing vector fields on (Riemannian) $G$-manifolds, with an emphasis on the cases $G={\rm Spin}(7)$ and $G=G_2$. Along the way, we classify the harmonic morphisms with…

We prove that the surface gravity of a compact non-degenerate Cauchy horizon in a smooth vacuum spacetime, can be normalized to a non-zero constant. This result, combined with a recent result by Oliver Petersen and Istv\'an R\'acz, end up…

We develop a geometric and explicit construction principle that generates classes of Poincare-Einstein manifolds, and more generally almost Einstein manifolds. Almost Einstein manifolds satisfy a generalisation of the Einstein condition;…

We apply the notion of parametrized vector field on a manifold M, where the parameters are also in M, to the study of the zero-curvature condition that arises in the context of integrable systems.

In the present paper, we define the concept of a \( q \)-cosymplectic manifold, on which we study the Hamiltonian, gradient, local gradient, and \( q \)-evolution vector fields. Several Liouville--Arnold-type theorems and a \( q…
