Given a closed Riemannian manifold $(N^{n+1},g)$, $n+1 \geq 3$ we prove the compactness of the space of singular, minimal hypersurfaces in $N$ whose volumes are uniformly bounded from above and the $p$-th Jacobi eigenvalue $\lambda_p$'s are…
Extremal black branes are of interest because they correspond to the ground states of field theories at finite charge density in gauge/gravity duality. The geometry of such a brane need not be translationally invariant in the spatial…

Einstein's field equations with variable gravitational and cosmological ``constant'' are considered in presence of perfect fluid for Bianchi type-I spacetime. Consequences of the four cases of the phenomenological decay of $\Lambda$ have…
