We prove a sharp isoperimetric inequality for the class of metric measure spaces verifying the synthetic Ricci curvature lower bounds $MCP(0,N)$ and having Euclidean volume growth at infinity. We avoid the classical use of the…
It has been claimed in \cite{1}, that the idea proposed in \cite{2} has certain mistakes based on arguments of energy conditions and others. Additionally, some of the key arguments of the paper are criticized. Here we demonstrate that the…
We construct new examples of complete Einstein metrics on balls. At each point of the boundary at infinity, the metric is asymptotic to a homogeneous Einstein metric on a solvable group, which varies with the point at infinity.
In this paper, we study compact generalized $\tau$-quasi Ricci-harmonic metrics. In the first part, we explore conditions under which generalized $\tau$-quasi Ricci-harmonic metrics are harmonic-Einstein and give some characterization…
We analyse the issue of uniqueness of solutions of the static vacuum Einstein equations with prescribed geometric or Bartnik boundary data. Large classes of examples are constructed where uniqueness fails. We then discuss the implications…
The Ricci tensor (Ric) is fundamental to Einstein's geometric theory of gravitation. The 3-dimensional Ric of a spacelike surface vanishes at the moment of time symmetry for vacuum spacetimes. The 4-dimensional Ric is the Einstein tensor…

We localize the entropy functionals of G. Perelman and generalize his no-local-collapsing theorem and pseudo-locality theorem. Our generalization is technically inspired by further development of Li-Yau estimates along the Ricci flow. It…

Many of the technical complications associated with the general theory of relativity ultimately stem from the nonlinearity of Einstein's equation. It is shown here that an appropriate choice of dynamical variables may be used to eliminate…
