We give the necessary and sufficient conditions for a 3-metric to be the adapted spatial metric of a static vacuum solution. This work accomplishes for the degenerate cases the already known study for the regular ones (Bartnik and Tod 2006…
What restrictions are there on a spacetime for which the Ricci curvature is such as to produce convergence of geodesics (such as the preconditions for the Singularity Theorems) but for which there are no singularities? We answer this…
In this paper we give sufficient conditions on a sequence of multipole moments for a static spacetime to exist with precisely these moments. The proof is constructive in the sense that a metric having prescribed multipole moments up to a…
Measure contraction property is one of the possible generalizations of Ricci curvature bound to more general metric measure spaces. In this paper, we discover sufficient conditions for a three dimensional contact subriemannian manifold to…
The necessary and sufficient conditions for a three-dimensional Riemannian metric to admit a transitive group of isometries are obtained. These conditions are Intrinsic, Deductive, Explicit and ALgorithmic, and they offer an IDEAL labeling…
A necessary and sufficient condition for the existence and uniqueness of a conformal metric on 2-sphere of constant curvature 1 and with three conical singularities of prescribed order is given.
Any three-dimensional Riemannian metric can be locally obtained by deforming a constant curvature metric along one direction. The general interest of this result, both in geometry and physics, and related open problems are stressed.
A viable spacetime is one that admits a complete timelike geodesic. It is shown that a causal diffeomorphism preserving the Ricci tensor between two spacetimes is necessarily a homothety, if one of them is viable.
Metric variation of higher order theory of gravity requires to fix the Ricci scalar in addition to the metric tensor at the boundary. Fixing Ricci scalar at the boundary implies that the classical solutions are fixed once and forever to the…
This paper is the third and final component of a three-part effort on observers contracting a Riemannian distance between the state of the system and its estimate. In Part I, we showed that such a contraction property holds if the system…
The aim of this paper is to classify three dimensional compact Riemannian manifolds $(M^{3},g)$ that admits a non-constant solution to the equation $$-\Delta f g+Hess f-fRic=\mu Ric+\lambda g,$$ for some special constants $(\mu, \lambda)$,…
We obtain an improved Bochner inequality based on the curvature-dimension condition ${\rm RCD}^*(K,N)$ and propose a definition of $N$-dimensional Ricci tensor on metric measure spaces.
We consider covariant metric theories of coupled gravity-matter systems satisfying the following two conditions: First, it is assumed that, by a hyperbolic reduction process, a system of first order symmetric hyperbolic partial differential…
An examples of the Ricci-flat metric associated with the equations of Navier-Stokes are constructed. Their properties are investigated.
We prove that the "generic condition" used in singularity theorems of general relativity is generic in the space of Lorentzian metrics on a given manifold, in the sense that it is satisfied for all metrics in a residual set in the Whitney…
A critical point metric is a critical point of the total scalar curvature functional restricted to the space of constant scalar curvature metrics on a closed manifold with unit volume. It was conjectured in 1980's that every critical point…
We compare three notions of genericity of separable metric structures. Our analysis provides a general model theoretic technique of showing that structures are generic in descriptive set theoretic (topological) sense and in measure…
Universal spacetimes are spacetimes for which all conserved symmetric rank-2 tensors, constructed as contractions of polynomials from the metric, the Riemann tensor and its covariant derivatives of arbitrary order, are multiples of the…
We prove that a globally hyperbolic smooth spacetime endowed with a $\smash{\mathrm{C}^1}$-Lorentzian metric whose Ricci tensor is bounded from below in all timelike directions, in a distributional sense, obeys the timelike…
