In this paper we study the stability of a Killing cylinder in hyperbolic 3-space when regarded as a capillary surface for the partitioning problem. In contrast with the Euclidean case, we consider a variety of totally umbilical support…
Horndeski models with a de Sitter critical point for any kind of material content may provide a mechanism to alleviate the cosmological constant problem. Moreover, they could allow us to understand the current accelerated expansion of the…
We develop a new concept of non-positive curvature for metric spaces, based on intersection patterns of closed balls. In contrast to the synthetic approaches of Alexandrov and Buesemann, our concept also applies to metric spaces that might…
In this paper, we construct compact embedded $\lambda$-hypersurfaces with the topology of torus which are called $\lambda$-torus in Euclidean spaces $\mathbb {R}^{n+1}$.
We discuss the consequences of unique symmetry of de Sitter spacetime, which is invariant under the modified translations, ${\bf r}\rightarrow {\bf r} -e^{Ht}{\bf a}$, where $H$ is the Hubble parameter. Due to this symmetry, all the…
This is a status report on a research program aimed at obtaining quantum-gravitational physics inside a cosmological horizon through dS/CFT, i.e. through a holographic description at past/future infinity of de Sitter space. The program aims…
Recently, investigations have begun into a holographic duality for two-dimensional de Sitter space. In this paper, we evaluate the associated central charge, using a modified version of the canonical Hamiltonian method that was first…
The superposition of the Kepler-Coulomb potential on the 3D Euclidean space with three centrifugal terms has recently been shown to be maximally superintegrable [Verrier P E and Evans N W 2008 J. Math. Phys. 49 022902] by finding an…
The topologies of event horizons are investigated. Considering the existence of the endpoint of the event horizon, it cannot be differentiable. Then there are the new possibilities of the topology of the event horizon though they are…
Studying the critical scalar theory in four dimensional Euclidean space with the potential term $-g\phi^4$ we show that the theory can not be analytically continued through g=0 from g<0 region to g>0 region. For g>0 although energy is not…
We construct wormholes supported by axion flux in the presence of a positive cosmological constant. The solutions describe compact, one-handle bodies colloquially known as kettlebell geometries. The wormholes are perturbatively stable, but…
This article is concerned with the stability of triharmonic maps and in particular triharmonic hypersurfaces. After deriving a number of general statements on the stability of triharmonic maps we focus on the stability of triharmonic…
We study the holographic representation of the entanglement entropy, recently proposed by Ryu and Takayanagi, in a braneworld context. The holographic entanglement entropy of a de Sitter brane embedded in an anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetime…
The Einstein's equations with a negative cosmological constant admit solutions which are asymptotically anti-de Sitter space. Matter fields in anti-de Sitter space can be in stable equilibrium even if the potential energy is unbounded from…
This is an unrefereed lecture note based on lectures in 'Introductory Workshop on Discrete Differential Geometry' at Korea University on January 21--24, 2019. In this note, we discuss topological crystallography, which is a mathematical…
In this paper we consider $C^{1+\epsilon}$ area-preserving diffeomorphisms of the torus $f,$ either homotopic to the identity or to Dehn twists. We suppose that $f$ has a lift $\widetilde{f}$ to the plane such that its rotation set has…
We derive the formula of the entanglement entropy between the left and right oscillating modes of the $\sigma$-model with the de Sitter target space. To this end, we study the theory in the \emph{cosmological gauge} in which the…
Motivated by recent work suggesting observably large spacetime fluctuations in the causal development of an empty region of flat space, we conjecture that these metric fluctuations can be quantitatively described in terms of a conformal…
Based on Morse theory for the energy functional on path spaces we develop a deformation theory for mapping spaces of spheres into orthogonal groups. This is used to show that these mapping spaces are weakly homotopy equivalent, in a stable…
We propose a real-space formalism of the topological Euler class, which characterizes the fragile topology of two-dimensional systems with real wave functions. This real-space description is characterized by local Euler markers whose…
