The open Milne cosmological spacetime has a 3-dimensional Cauchy surface isometric to the (non-compact) hyperbolic space. We prove the globally nonlinear stability of the open Milne spacetime for both massive and massless Einstein-scalar…

This is the last article in a series of three initiated by the second author. We elaborate on the concepts and theorems constructed in the previous articles. In particular, we prove that the GH and the GGH uniformities previously introduced…

In this work we study the structure of the future causal completion $\hat{M}$ of a globally hyperbolic GRW spacetime $\mathbb{R}\times_\alpha M$ using the novel notion of Lorentzian pre-length spaces. As our main result, we prove that the…

We study time-dependent compactification of extra dimensions. We assume that the spacetime is spatially homogeneous, and solve the vacuum Einstein equations without cosmological constant in more than three dimensions. We consider globally…

Several calculations in conformally static spacetimes rely on the introduction of an ultrastatic background. I describe the general properties of ultrastatic spacetimes, and then focus on the problem of whether a given spacetime can be…

We show a general theorem of existence of temporal foliations in a general causal set, under mild constraints. Then we study automorphisms of infinite causal sets (which satisfy further requirements) and show that they fall under one of two…

Recently, folk questions on the smoothability of Cauchy hypersurfaces and time functions of a globally hyperbolic spacetime M, have been solved. Here we give further results, applicable to several problems: (1) Any compact spacelike acausal…

We discuss a conjectural duality between hyperbolic spaces on one hand and spacetimes on the other hand, living on the opposite sides of the common absolute. This duality goes via M\"obius structures on the absolute, and it is easily…

Spacetimes with collisionless matter evolving from data on a compact Cauchy surface with hyperbolic symmetry are shown to be timelike and null geodesically complete in the expanding direction, provided the data satisfy a certain size…

We prove that every 2-local automorphism of the unitary group or the general linear group on a complex infinite-dimensional separable Hilbert space is an automorphism. Thus these types of transformations are completely determined by their…

We study the geometry of a weak Riemannian metric on the infinite dimensional manifold of compact spacelike Cauchy hypersurfaces in a globally hyperbolic spacetime. We show that the geodesic distance (i.e. the infimum of lengths of paths…

We equip the space of Cauchy hypersurfaces in a globally hyperbolic spacetime with a natural Hausdorff-type metric and study its properties, in particular completeness and local compactness, for Lorentzian manifolds and in more general…

In this work we revisit the notion of the (future) causal completion of a globally hyperbolic spacetime and endow it with the structure of a Lorentzian pre-length space. We further carry out this construction for a certain class of…

The hyperbolic space $ \H^d$ can be defined as a pseudo-sphere in the $(d+1)$ Minkowski space-time. In this paper, a Fuchsian group $\Gamma$ is a group of linear isometries of the Minkowski space such that $\H^d/\Gamma$ is a compact…

We prove that spacetimes satisfying the vacuum Einstein equations on a manifold of the form $\Sigma \times U(1)\times R$ where $\Sigma $ is a compact surface of genus $G>1$ and where the Cauchy data is invariant with respect to U(1) and…

In order to apply variational methods to the action functional for geodesics of a stationary spacetime, some hypotheses, useful to obtain classical Palais-Smale condition, are commonly used: pseudo-coercivity, bounds on certain coefficients…

Let $S$ be a compact, orientable surface of hyperbolic type. Let $(k_+,k_-)$ be a pair of negative numbers and let $(g_+, g_-)$ be a pair of marked metrics over $S$ of constant curvature equal to $k_+$ and $k_-$ respectively. Using a…

A thorough classification of the topologies of compact homogeneous universes is given except for the hyperbolic spaces, and their global degrees of freedom are completely worked out. To obtain compact universes, spatial points are…

We recast the tools of ``global causal analysis'' in accord with an approach to the subject animated by two distinctive features: a thoroughgoing reliance on order-theoretic concepts, and a utilization of the Vietoris topology for the space…

The automorphism group of a one dimensional shift space over a finite alphabet exhibits different types of behavior: for a large class with positive entropy, it contains a rich collection of subgroups, while for many shifts of zero entropy,…
