Left-invariant Lorentzian structures on the 2D solvable non-Abelian Lie group are studied. Sectional curvature, attainable sets, Lorentzian length maximizers, distance, spheres, and infinitesimal isometries are described.
In this paper we present a method of characteristic sets for inversive difference polynomials and apply it to the analysis of systems of quasi-linear algebraic difference equations. We describe characteristic sets and compute difference…
We define a physically reasonable mass for an asymptotically Robertson-Walker (ARW) manifold which is uniquely defined in the case of a normalized representation.
The purpose of the paper is to study the relationship between differential equations, Pfaffian systems and geometric structures, via the method of moving frames of E.Cartan. We show a local structure theorem. The Lie algebra aspects…
We consider an inverse problem for a non-linear hyperbolic equation. We show that conformal structure of a Lorentzian manifold can be determined by the source-to-solution map evaluated along a single timelike curve. We use the microlocal…
We express discrete Painlev\'e equations as discrete Hamiltonian systems. The discrete Hamiltonian systems here mean the canonical transformations defined by generating functions. Our construction relies on the classification of the…
In the harmonic description of general relativity, the principle part of Einstein equations reduces to a constrained system of 10 curved space wave equations for the components of the space-time metric. We use the pseudo-differential theory…
The question whether a Riemannian manifold is geodesically connected can be studied from geometrical as well as variational methods, and accurate results can be obtained by using the associated distance and related properties of the…
We obtain bounded for all $t$ solutions of ordinary differential equations as limits of the solutions of the corresponding Dirichlet problems on $(-L,L)$, with $L \rightarrow \infty$. We derive a priori estimates for the Dirichlet problems,…
In this work, based on the $3+1$ decomposition in [24, 33], we present a fully exterior calculus breakdown of spacetime and Einstein's equations. Links to the orthonormal frame approach [38] are drawn to help understand the variables in…
We study special linear systems of surfaces of $\mathbb{P}^3$ interpolating nine points in general position having a quadric as fixed component. By performing degenerations in the blown-up space, we interpret the quadric obstruction in…
The notion of multidimensional quadrilateral lattice is introduced. It is shown that such a lattice is characterized by a system of integrable discrete nonlinear equations. Different useful formulations of the system are given. The…
This is the fourth in a series of papers where we prove a conjecture of Deser and Schwimmer regarding the algebraic structure of ``global conformal invariants''; these are defined to be conformally invariant integrals of geometric scalars.…
We establish a new equivalent condition for the Grand Riemann Hypothesis for L-functions in a wide subclass of the Selberg class in terms of canonical systems of differential equations. A canonical system is determined by a real symmetric…
We investigate the structure of conformal $C$-spaces,a class of Riemmanian manifolds which naturally arises as aconformal generalisation of the Einstein condition. A basic question is when such a structure is closed, or equivalently locally…
We introduce the notion of a special monopole class on a four-manifold. This is used to prove restrictions on the smooth structures of Einstein manifolds. As an application we prove that there are Einstein four-manifolds which are simply…
In this short note we discuss ordinary differential equations which linearize upon one (or more) differentiations. Although the subject is fairly elementary, equations of this type arise naturally in the context of integrable systems.
We present a global conformal invariant on closed six-manifolds which obstructs the existence of a conformally Einstein metric. We show that this obstruction is nontrivial and, up to multiplication by a constant, is the unique such…
We present a linear system of difference equations whose entries are expressed in terms of theta functions. This linear system is singular at $4m+12$ points for $m \geq 1$, which appear in pairs due to a symmetry condition. We parameterize…
We define a system of ODE that gives Einstein 4-dimensional metrics. We found new Ricci-flat incomplete metric of cohomogeneity 1 in explicit formulas and study its characteristics.
