We continue the study of the Einstein constraint equations on compact manifolds with boundary initiated by Holst and Tsogtgerel. In particular, we consider the full system and prove existence of solutions in both the near-CMC and…

The goal of this paper is to study weakly Einstein critical metrics of the volume functional on a compact manifold $M$ with smooth boundary $\partial M$. Here, we will give the complete classification for an $n$-dimensional, $n=3$ or $4,$…

We consider abstract inverse problems between infinite-dimensional Banach spaces. These inverse problems are typically nonlinear and ill-posed, making the inversion with limited and noisy measurements a delicate process. In this work, we…

This paper presents solutions to Einstein's equation -- and the numerical methods used to construct them -- that describe simple cosmological models on manifolds with compact non-orientable spatial slices. These solutions have been…

We prove that the Riemannian metric on a compact manifold of dimension $n\geq 3$ with smooth boundary can be uniquely determined, up to an isometry fixing the boundary, by the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map associated to the Laplace-Beltrami…

We extend the method of layer potentials to manifolds with boundary and cylindrical ends. To obtain this extension along the classical lines, we have to deal with several technical difficulties due to the non-compactness of the boundary,…

Existing concentration bounds for bounded vector-valued random variables include extensions of the scalar Hoeffding and Bernstein inequalities. While the latter is typically tighter, it requires knowing a bound on the variance of the random…

Let $(X, \omega)$ be a compact symplectic manifold and $L$ be a Lagrangian submanifold. Suppose $(X, L)$ has a Hamiltonian $S^1$ action with moment map $\mu$. Take an invariant $\omega$-compatible almost complex structure, we consider…

We prove that various spaces of constrained positive scalar curvature metrics on compact 3-manifolds with boundary, when not empty, are contractible. The constraints we mostly focus on are given in terms of local conditions on the mean…

We derive new, sharp lower bounds for certain curvature functionals on the space of Riemannian metrics of a smooth compact 4-manifold with a non-trivial Seiberg-Witten invariant. These allow one, for example, to exactly compute the infimum…

We model pseudo-Finsler geometries, with pseudo-Euclidean signatures of metrics, for two classes of four dimensional nonholonomic manifolds: a) tangent bundles with two dimensional base manifolds and b) pseudo-Riemannian/ Einstein…

The classification of solutions of the static vacuum Einstein equations, on a given closed manifold or an asymptotically flat one, is a long-standing and much-studied problem. Solutions are characterized by a complete Riemannian…

In the first part of the paper boundary-value problems are considered under weak assumptions on the smoothness of the domains. We assume nothing about smoothness of the boundary $\partial D$ of a bounded domain $D$ when the homogeneous…

We study boundary value problems for bounded uniform domains in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\geq 2$, with non-Lipschitz (and possibly fractal) boundaries. We prove Poincar\'e inequalities with trace terms and uniform constants for uniform…

For a Riemannian manifold $M$, possibly with boundary, we consider the Riemannian product $M\times\mathbb{R}^k$ with a smooth positive function that weights the Riemannian measures. In this work we characterize parabolic hypersurfaces with…

We discuss smooth metric measure spaces admitting two weighted Einstein representatives of the same weighted conformal class. First, we describe the local geometries of such manifolds in terms of certain Einstein and quasi-Einstein warped…

In this paper we study warped product Einstein metrics over spaces with constant scalar curvature. We call such a manifold rigid if the universal cover of the base is Einstein or is isometric to a product of Einstein manifolds. When the…

The gravitational Dirichlet problem -- in which the induced metric is fixed on boundaries at finite distance from the bulk -- is related to simple notions of UV cutoffs in gauge/gravity duality and appears in discussions relating the…

For almost all Riemannian metrics (in the $C^\infty$ Baire sense) on a compact manifold with boundary $(M^{n+1},\partial M)$, $3\leq (n + 1)\leq 7$, we prove that, for any open subset $V$ of $\partial M$, there exists a compact, properly…

It is shown that there are infinitely many compact orientable smooth 4-manifolds which do not admit Einstein metrics, but nevertheless satisfy the strict Hitchin-Thorpe inequality 2 chi > 3 |tau|. The examples in question arise as…
