Consider a compact Lie group $G$ and a closed subgroup $H<G$. Suppose $\mathcal M$ is the set of $G$-invariant Riemannian metrics on the homogeneous space $M=G/H$. We obtain a sufficient condition for the existence of $g\in\mathcal M$ and…

We consider generic, or "dirty" (surrounded by matter), stationary rotating black holes with axial symmetry. The restrictions are found on the asymptotic form of metric in the vicinity of non-extremal, extremal and ultra-extremal horizons,…

As a rule in General Relativity the spacetime metric fixes the Einstein tensor and through the Field Equations (FE) the energy-momentum tensor. However one cannot write the FE explicitly until a class of observers has been considered. Every…

We prove that a compact stratied space satises the Riemannian curvature-dimension condition RCD(K, N) if and only if its Ricci tensor is bounded below by K $\in$ R on the regular set, the cone angle along the stratum of codimension two is…

Suppose $M$ is a manifold with boundary. Choose a point $o\in\partial M$. We investigate the prescribed Ricci curvature equation $\Ric(G)=T$ in a neighborhood of $o$ under natural boundary conditions. The unknown $G$ here is a Riemannian…

As is known from studies of gravity models in the Palatini formalism, there exist two inequivalent definitions of the generalized Ricci tensor in terms of the generalized curvature namely, $\widetilde{R}_{\mu\nu}=R^\rho_{\mu\rho\nu}$ and…

We study how convergence of an observer whose state lives in a copy of the given system's space can be established using a Riemannian metric. We show that the existence of an observer guaranteeing the property that a Riemannian distance…

The necessary and sufficient conditions for a three-dimensional Riemannian metric to admit a group of isometries of dimension $r$ acting on s-dimensional orbits are obtained. These conditions are Intrinsic, Deductive, Explicit and…

Recently, a new cosmological framework, dubbed Ricci Cosmology, has been proposed. Such a framework has emerged from the study of relativistic dynamics of fluids out of equilibrium in a curved background and is characterised by the presence…

Let C be a cone in the space of algebraic curvature tensors. Moreover, let (M,g) be a compact Einstein manifold with the property that the curvature tensor of (M,g) lies in the cone C at each point on M. We show that (M,g) has constant…

A static Einstein metric that generalizes the Schwarzschild metric is considered. The event horizon is not necessarily a sphere and the term $dt\sp2$ is a function on such horizon. That the metric is Einstein establishes a relation between…

We prove the existence of a smooth complete conformal metric with prescribed kth elementary symmetric function of negative Ricci curvature under certain condition on general domain in Euclidean space. We then formulate this problem for more…

This paper explores and ties together three themes. The first is to establish regularity of a metric tensor, on a manifold with boundary, on which there are given Ricci curvature bounds, on the manifold and its boundary, and a Lipschitz…

In models of emergent gravity the metric arises as the expectation value of some collective field. Usually, many different collective fields with appropriate tensor properties are candidates for a metric. Which collective field describes…

Since the early days of the theory of electromagnetism and of gravity the idea of space, then space-time, as a sort of physical continuum hovered the scientific community. Actually general relativity shows the strong similarity that exists…

It is shown in this article that if the Einstein Equivalence Principle is valid on a particular metric theory of gravitation in a spherically symmetric space-time, then the time metric component is not equal to the negative of the inverse…

The Ricci flow on the 2-sphere with marked points is shown to converge in all three stable, semi-stable, and unstable cases. In the stable case, the flow was known to converge without any reparametrization, and a new proof of this fact is…

We can talk about two kinds of stability of the Ricci flow at Ricci flat metrics. One of them is a linear stability, defined with respect to Perelman's functional $\mathcal{F}$. The other one is a dynamical stability and it refers to a…

In this paper we show that, via an extension of time, some metric structures naturally appear in both classical and quantum mechanics when both are formulated via path integrals. We calculate the various Ricci scalar and curvatures…

We complete the proof of the Generalized Smale Conjecture, apart from the case of $RP^3$, and give a new proof of Gabai's theorem for hyperbolic 3-manifolds. We use an approach based on Ricci flow through singularities, which applies…
