In this paper, we prove a uniform approximation theorem with interpolation for complete conformal minimal surfaces with finite total curvature in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n$ $(n\ge 3)$. As application, we obtain a Mittag-Leffler type…
It is shown that the space of null geodesics of a star-shaped causally simple subset of Minkowski space is contactomorphic to the canonical contact structure in the spherical cotangent bundle of $\mathbb{R}^n$. In the $3$-dimensional case…
We show that the Teukolsky connection, which defines generalized wave operators governing the behavior of massless fields on Einstein spacetimes of Petrov type D, has its origin in a distinguished conformally and GHP covariant connection on…
We provide a geometric transformation on null curves in the anti-de Sitter 3-space (AdS) which induces the B\"acklund transformation for the KdV equation. In addition, we show that this geometric transformation satisfies a suitable…
The Kepler-Heisenberg problem is that of determining the motion of a planet around a sun in the Heisenberg group, thought of as a three-dimensional sub-Riemannian manifold. The sub-Riemannian Hamiltonian provides the kinetic energy, and the…
In [1], we gave a method for constructing Bertrand curves from the spherical curves in 3 dimensional Minkowski space. In this work, we construct the Bertrand curves corresponding to a spacelike geodesic and a null helix in Minkowski 4…
A nonstationary spherically symmetric problem for conformal geometrodynamics equations is considered and general exact solutions in quadratures are obtained. Involvement of Weyl degrees of freedom allows us to consider the problem with…
We find the minimal value of the length in de Sitter space of closed space-like curves with non-vanishing non-space-like geodesic curvature vector. These curves are in correspondence with closed almost-regular canal surfaces, and their…
We investigate the relationship between conformal and spin structure on lorentzian manifolds and see how their compatibility influences the formulation of rigid supersymmetric field theories. In dimensions three, four, six and ten, we show…
In the present paper, we consider several valid notions of orientability of Alexandov spaces and prove that all such conditions are equivalent. Further, we give topological and geometric applications of the orientability. In particular, a…
We study the simplest geometrical particle model associated with null paths in four-dimensional Minkowski space-time. The action is given by the pseudo-arclength of the particle worldline. We show that the reduced classical phase space of…
We argue that the presence of conformal anomalies in gravitational theories can lead to observable modifications to Einstein's equations via the induced anomalous effective actions, whose non-localities can overwhelm the smallness of the…
We discuss an exact time dependent O(3) symmetric solution with a horizon of the 5d AdS classical gravity equations searching for a 4d boundary theory which would correspond to expanding gauge theory matter. The boundary energy-momentum…
The noncommutative space of light-like worldlines that is covariant under the light-like (or null-plane) $\kappa$-deformation of the (3+1) Poincar\'e group is fully constructed as the quantization of the corresponding Poisson homogeneous…
The simplest (2+1)-dimensional mechanical systems associated with light-like curves, already studied by Nersessian and Ramos, are reconsidered. The action is linear in the curvature of the particle path and the moduli spaces of solutions…
This paper introduces a complex representation for spacelike surfaces in the Lorentz-Minkowski space $L^4$, based in two complex valued functions which can be assumed to be holomorphic or anti-holomorphic. When the immersion is contained in…
We use the Kontsevich--Miwa transform to relate the Virasoro constraints on integrable hierarchies with the David-Distler-Kawai formalism of gravity-coupled conformal theories. The derivation relies on evaluating the energy-momentum tensor…
In the present paper we construct all short representation of $so(3,2)$ with the $sl(2,\mathbb{C})$ symmetry made manifest due to the use of $sl(2,\mathbb{C})$ spinors. This construction has a natural connection to the spinor-helicity…
The main aim of this interdisciplinary paper is to characterize all maps on finite Minkowski space of arbitrary dimension $n$ that map pairs of distinct light-like events into pairs of distinct light-like events. Neither bijectivity of maps…
In a space-time, a conformal structure is defined by the distribution of light-cones. Geodesics are traced by freely falling particles, and the collection of all unparameterized geodesics determines the projective structure of the…
