Inspired by the entropy-area relation of black hole thermodynamics, we study the thermodynamics of cosmological apparent horizon in a spatially flat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) universe in the framework of an Extended Uncertainty…
The role of the Taub time gauge in cosmology is linked to the use of the densitized lapse function instead of the lapse function in the variational principle approach to the Einstein equations. The spatial metric variational equations then…
We establish a uniform estimate for the injectivity radius of the past null cone of a point in a general Lorentzian manifold foliated by spacelike hypersurfaces and satisfying an upper curvature bound. Precisely, our main assumptions are,…
We introduce a new kind of super warped product spaces $\bar{M}_{_{(I)}}=\textbf{I}^{1|0}\times_f M^{m|n}$, $\bar{M}_{_{(II)}}=\textbf{I}^{0|1}\times_{f} M^{m|n}$, and $\bar{M}_{_{(III)}}=\textbf{I}^{1|1}\times_{f} M^{m|n}$, where $M^{m|n}$…
We consider the Hamiltonian system with Neumann boundary conditions: \[ -\Delta u + \mu u=v^{q }, \quad -\Delta v+ \mu v=u^{p} \quad \text{ in $\Omega$}, \qquad u, v >0 \quad \text{ in $\Omega$,} \qquad \partial_\nu u= \partial_\nu v=0…
We give an alternative description of the physical content of general relativity that does not require a Lorentz invariant spacetime. Instead, we find that gravity admits a dual description in terms of a theory where local size is…
Given a constant C and a smooth closed $(n-1)$-dimensional Riemannian manifold $(\Sigma, g)$ equipped with a positive function $H$, a natural question to ask is whether this manifold can be realised as the boundary of a smooth…
The 3+1 Hamiltonian formulation in the gauge $D_tN=-K$ on the lapse function fixes the direction of time associated with the trace $K$ of the extrinsic curvature tensor. The Hamiltonian equations hereby become hyperbolic. We study this new…
We show that under certain technical assumptions, including the existence of a constant mean curvature (CMC) slice and strict positivity of the scalar field, general relativity conformally coupled to a scalar field can be quantised on a…
In the present manuscript the basic Einstein--Hilbert cosmological model is extended, by adding a new functional $F(G, T_{\mu\nu}T^{\mu\nu})$ in the fundamental action, encoding specific geometrical effects due to a nontrivial coupling with…
We give a lower bound for the Lorentz length of the ADM energy-momentum vector (ADM mass) of 3-dimensional asymptotically flat initial data sets for the Einstein equations. The bound is given in terms of linear growth `spacetime harmonic…
Motivated by the conjectured Penrose inequality and by the work of Hawking, Geroch, Huisken and Ilmanen in the null and the Riemannian case, we examine necessary conditions on flows of two-surfaces in spacetime under which the Hawking…
We exploit an arbitrary extrinsic time foliation of spacetime to solve the constraints in spherically symmetric general relativity. Among such foliations there is a one parameter family, linear and homogeneous in the extrinsic curvature,…
Consider the heat equation $u_t-\Delta u=0$ on a bounded $C^2$ domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n}(n\geq 2)$ with any positive initial data. If a superlinear radiation law $\frac{\partial u}{\partial n}=u^{q}$ with $q>1$ is imposed on a…
We consider diagonal cylindrically symmetric metrics, with an interior representing a general non-rotating fluid with anisotropic pressures. An exterior vacuum Einstein-Rosen spacetime is matched to this using Darmois matching conditions.…
Let $(M^n,g_0)$ and $(\bar{M}^{n+1},\bar{g})$ be complete Riemannian manifolds with $|\bar{\nabla}^k\bar{Rm}|\le \bar{C}$ for $k \le 2$, and suppose there is an isometric immersion $F_0: M^n \rightarrow \bar{M}^{n+1}$ with bounded second…
By using the standard perturbation theory we study the mass as well as $\theta$ parameter dependence of the Seiberg-Witten theory with $SU(2)$ gauge group, supplemented with a $N=1$ supersymmetric as well as a smaller nonsupersymmetric…
In this article, it is shown how the extended conformal Einstein field equations and a gauge based on the properties of conformal geodesics can be used to analyse the non-linear stability of de Sitter-like spacetimes with spatial sections…
It is shown that Einstein's field equations for \emph{all} perfect-fluid $k=0$ FLRW cosmologies have the same form as the topological normal form of a fold bifurcation. In particular, we assume that the cosmological constant is a…
We develop a new approach to building cosmological models, in which small pieces of perturbed Minkowski space are joined together at reflection-symmetric boundaries in order to form a global, dynamical space-time. Each piece of this…
