We present the general regular warped solution with 4D Minkowski spacetime in six-dimensional gauged supergravity. In this framework, we can easily embed multiple conical branes into the warped geometry by choosing an undetermined…

A signature changing spacetime is one where an initially Riemannian manifold with Euclidean signature evolves into the Lorentzian universe we see today. This concept is motivated by problems in causality implied by the isotropy and…

In this paper, we show that any globally hyperbolic space-time admits at least one globally defined distance-like function, which is a viscosity solution to the Lorentzian eikonal equation. According to whether the time orientation is…

We consider the problem of realizing hyperbolicity cones as spectrahedra, i.e. as linear slices of cones of positive semidefinite matrices. The generalized Lax conjecture states that this is always possible. We use generalized Clifford…

We analyse an algorithm of transition between Cauchy problems for second-order wave equations and first-order symmetric hyperbolic systems in case the coefficients as well as the data are non-smooth, even allowing for regularity below the…

We present the complete family of space-times with a non-expanding, shear-free, twist-free, geodesic principal null congruence (Kundt waves) that are of algebraic type III and for which the cosmological constant ($\Lambda_c$) is non-zero.…

We consider the helical reduction of the wave equation with an arbitrary source on $(n+1)$-dimensional Minkowski space, $n\geq2$. The reduced equation is of mixed elliptic-hyperbolic type on ${\bf R}^n$. We obtain a uniqueness theorem for…
