We study the interaction between toric Ricci-flat metrics in dimension 4 and axisymmetric harmonic maps from the 3-dimensional Euclidean space into the hyperbolic plane. Applications include (1). The construction of complete Ricci-flat…

The time dependent conformally-flat spherical Rindler spacetime is investigated. The geometry has an apparent horizon that coincides with the causal horizon. The scalar acceleration of a static observer is constant and equals to the…

We study an even dimensional manifold with a pseudo-Riemannian metric with arbitrary signature and arbitrary dimensions. We consider the Ricci flat equations and present a procedure to construct solutions to some higher (even) dimensional…

We present a comprehensive analysis of the AdS/Ricci-flat correspondence, a map between a class of asymptotically locally AdS spacetimes and a class of Ricci-flat spacetimes. We provide a detailed derivation of the map, discuss a number of…

We define a class of two dimensional surfaces conformally related to minimal surfaces in flat three dimensional geometries. By the utility of the metrics of such surfaces we give a construction of the metrics of $2 N$ dimensional Ricci flat…

We obtain Ricci flat K\"ahler metrics on complex symmetric spaces of rank two by using an explicit asymptotic model whose geometry at infinity is interpreted in the wonderful compactification of the symmetric space. We recover the metrics…

We summarize the fall-off of electromagnetic and gravitational fields in n>5 dimensional Ricci-flat spacetimes along an asympotically expanding non-singular geodesic null congruence.

We study the Ricci flow of initial metrics which are C^0-perturbations of the hyperbolic metric on H^n. If the perturbation is bounded in the L^2-sense, and small enough in the C^0-sense, then we show the following: In dimensions four and…

Ricci-flat spacetimes of signature (2,q) with q=2,3,4 are constructed which admit irreducible Killing tensors of rank-3 or rank-4. The construction relies upon the Eisenhart lift applied to Drach's two-dimensional integrable systems which…

We construct the classical mechanics associated with a conformally flat Riemannian metric on a compact, n-dimensional manifold without boundary. The corresponding gradient Ricci flow equation turns out to equal the time-dependent…

In general relativity, there have been a number of successful constructions for asymptotically flat metrics with a certain background foliation. In particular, C. -Y. Lin used a foliation by the Ricci flow on 2-spheres to establish an…

We give a new construction of Ricci-flat self-dual metrics which is a natural extension of the Gibbons--Hawking ansatz. We also give characterisations of both these constructions, and explain how they come from harmonic morphisms.

The group theoretic construction is applied to construct a novel dynamical realization of the $l$--conformal Galilei group in terms of geodesic equations on the coset space. A peculiar feature of the geodesics is that all their integrals of…

Using techniques of supersymmetric gauge theories, we present the Ricci-flat metrics on non-compact Kahler manifolds whose conical singularity is repaired by the Hermitian symmetric space. These manifolds can be identified as the complex…

What restrictions are there on a spacetime for which the Ricci curvature is such as to produce convergence of geodesics (such as the preconditions for the Singularity Theorems) but for which there are no singularities? We answer this…

We classify Einstein metrics on $\mathbb{R}^4$ invariant under a four-dimensional group of isometries including a principal action of the Heisenberg group. The metrics are either Ricci-flat or of negative Ricci curvature. We show that all…

We classify solutions to Einstein's equations in AdS with Ricci-flat boundary metric and with covariantly constant boundary stress tensor, which in general is not diagonalizable, i.e. it does not admit a reference frame. New solutions are…

Given a smooth globally hyperbolic $(3+1)$-dimensional spacetime satisfying the Einstein vacuum equations (possibly with cosmological constant) and an inextendible timelike geodesic, we construct a family of metrics depending on a small…

Any homogeneous expanding Ricci soliton is known to be isometric to a Lie subgroup of the solvable part of the Iwasawa decomposition associated with a symmetric space of non-compact type, with the metric induced as a submanifold. In this…

The Ricci flow is a heat equation for metrics, which has recently been used to study the topology of closed three manifolds. In this paper we apply Ricci flow techniques to general relativity. We view a three dimensional asymptotically flat…
