In this paper, we give a rigorous derivation of Einstein's geodesic hypothesis in general relativity. We use scaling stable solitons for nonlinear wave equations to approximate the test particle. Given a vacuum spacetime $([0,…
This paper is concerned with a structural analysis of euclidean field theories on the euclidean sphere. In the first section we give proposal for axioms for a euclidean field theory on a sphere in terms of C*-algebras. Then, in the second…
We first introduce a class of divergence measures between power spectral density matrices. These are derived by comparing the suitability of different models in the context of optimal prediction. Distances between "infinitesimally close"…
For a positively charged insulated d-dimensional sphere we investigate how the distribution of this charge is affected by proximity to a nearby positive or negative point charge when the system is governed by a Riesz s-potential 1/r^s, s>0,…
We provide a set of general tools to study the problem of stellar equilibrium in any gravitational theory in which spherically symmetric spacetimes satisfy master field equations taking the form of an equality between an identically…
We propose a notion of distance between two parametrized planar curves, called their discrepancy, and defined intuitively as the minimal amount of deformation needed to deform the source curve into the target curve. A precise definition of…
In this paper, we first prove a folklore conjecture on a greatest lower bound of the Calabi energy in all K\"ahler manifold. Similar result in algebriac setting was obtained by S. K. Donaldson. Secondly, we give an upper/lower bound…
We consider the minimal energy problem on the unit sphere $\mathbb S^2$ in the Euclidean space $\mathbb R^3$ immersed in an external field $Q$, where the charges are assumed to interact via Newtonian potential $1/r$, $r$ being the Euclidean…
We study the general properties of fluid spheres satisfying the heuristic assumption that their areas and proper radius are equal (the Euclidean condition). Dissipative and non-dissipative models are considered. In the latter case, all…
Geodesics escape is widely used to study the scattering of hyperbolic equations. However, there are few progresses except in a simply connected complete Riemannian manifold with nonpositive curvature. We propose a kind of complete…
Given a Riemannian manifold $M$ and an $L^2$-normalized Laplacian eigenfunction $\psi$ on $M$ with eigenvalue $\lambda^2$, a general problem in analysis is to understand how the mass of $\psi$ distributes around $M$. There are different…
It is shown that unlike the perfect fluid case, anisotropic fluids (principal stresses unequal) may be geodesic, without this implying the vanishing of (spatial) pressure gradients. Then the condition of vanishing four acceleration is…
The density profiles and other quantities of physical interest for spherically symmetric systems are computed by assuming that a collisionless stellar gas may relax to the non-Gaussian power law distribution suggested by the nonextensive…
A simple observation about the action for geodesics in a stationary spacetime with separable geodesic equations leads to a natural class of slicings of that spacetime whose orthogonal geodesic trajectories represent freely falling…
In this paper we develop a Morse theory for the uniform energy. We use the one-sided directional derivative of the distance function to study the minimizing properties of variations through closed geodesics. This derivative is then used to…
We compare the Brown-York (BY) and the standard Misner-Sharp (MS) quasilocal energies for round spheres in spherically symmetric space-times from the point of view of radial geodesics. In particular, we show that the relation between the BY…
We study configurations of points on the unit sphere that minimize potential energy for a broad class of potential functions (viewed as functions of the squared Euclidean distance between points). Call a configuration sharp if there are m…
Consider the defocusing quintic nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger equation on $\mathbf{R}^3$ with initial data in the energy space. This problem is "energy-critical" in view of a certain scale-invariance, which is a main source of difficulty in the…
The method of geodesic deviations provides analytic approximations to geodesics in arbitrary background space-times. As such the method is a useful tool in many practical situations. In this note we point out some subtleties in the…
It was proved in the first part of this work \cite{0} that Stolarsky's invariance principle, known previously for point distributions on the Euclidean spheres \cite{33}, can be extended to the real, complex, and quaternionic projective…
