[1] investigates advanced connotations of Hardy and Rellich-type inequalities on complete noncompact Riemannian manifolds, delving on deriving inequalities that incorporate poignant weight functions. These inequalities prolongate classical…
In a Riemannian manifold, it is well known that the scalar curvature at a point can be recovered from the volumes (areas) of small geodesic balls (spheres). We show the scalar curvature is likewise determined by the relative capacities of…
We develop the General Theory of Relativity in a formalism with extended causality that describes physical interaction through discrete, transversal and localized pointlike fields. The homogeneous field equations are then solved for a…
A compactness theorem is proved for a family of K\"{a}hler surfaces with constant scalar curvature and volume bounded from below, diameter bounded from above, Ricci curvature bounded and the signature bounded from below. Furthermore, a…
The author has elsewhere given a complete classification of those compact oriented Einstein 4-manifolds on which the self-dual Weyl curvature is everywhere positive in the direction of some self-dual harmonic 2-form. In this article,…
The barotropic ideal fluid with step and delta-function discontinuities coupled to Einstein's gravity is studied. The discontinuities represent star surfaces and thin shells; only non-intersecting discontinuity hypersurfaces are considered.…
In this paper we generalize the main result of [4] for manifolds that are not necessarily Einstein. In fact, we obtain an upper bound for the volume of a locally volume-minimizing closed hypersurface $\Sigma$ of a Riemannian 5-manifold $M$…
Let $(M^n,g)$, $n \ge 4$, be a compact simply-connected Riemannian manifold with nonnegative isotropic curvature. Given $0<l\le L$, we prove that there exists $\eps = \eps (l,L,n)$ satisfying the following: If the scalar curvature $s$ of…
We establish a sharp Fenchel-Willmore inequality for closed submanifolds of arbitrary dimension and codimension immersed in a complete Riemannian manifold with non-negative intermediate Ricci curvature and Euclidean volume growth. In the…
A well-known result asserts that any isometric immersion with flat normal bundle of a Riemannian manifold with constant sectional curvature into a space form is (at least locally) holonomic. In this note, we show that this conclusion…
In this paper, we introduce a class of spacetimes $\left(\mathcal{M},g\right)$ which satisfy the vacuum Einstein equations and dynamically approach a Schwarzschild solution of mass $M$, a class we shall call \emph{ultimately…
We derive spherically symmetric solutions of the classical \lambda-R model, a minimal, anisotropic modification of general relativity with a preferred foliation and two local degrees of freedom. Starting from a 3 + 1 decomposition of the…
We give a characterization of critical points that allows us to define a metric invariant on all Riemannian manifolds $M$ with a lower sectional curvature bound and an upper radius bound. We show there is a uniform upper volume bound for…
In this paper, we prove a rigidity theorem for Poincar\'e-Einstein manifolds whose conformal infinity is a flat Euclidean space. The proof relies on analyzing the propagation of curvature tensors over the level sets of an adapted boundary…
We prove two-sided inequalities for the $L^p$-norm of a pushforward or pullback (with respect to an orientation-preserving diffeomorphism) on oriented volume and Riemannian manifolds. For a function or density on a volume manifold, these…
A classical theorem in conformal geometry states that on a manifold with non-positive Yamabe invariant, a smooth metric achieving the invariant must be Einstein. In this work, we extend it to the singular case and show that in all…
The purpose of this note is to provide some volume estimates for Einstein warped products similar to a classical result due to Calabi and Yau for complete Riemannian manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature. To do so, we make use of the…
We prove an extension of Eells and Sampson's rigidity theorem for harmonic maps from a closed manifold of non-negative Ricci curvature to a manifold of non-positive sectional curvature. We give an application of our result in the setting of…
Given a strongly local Dirichlet space and $\lambda\geq 0$, we introduce a new notion of $\lambda$--subharmonicity for $L^1_\loc$--functions, which we call \emph{local $\lambda$--shift defectivity}, and which turns out to be equivalent to…
The unique Nature of the Lorentz group in four dimensions is the root cause of the many remarkable properties of the Einstein spacetimes, in particular their operational structure on the 2-forms. We show how this operational structure can…
