It is demonstrated how a convenient choice of the mathematical structure of the quantum cosmology superspace, precisely the definition of a convenient regular state superspace and the restriction of the dynamics to this space, yields…

This is an intuitive survey of extrinsic and intrinsic notions of convergence of manifolds complete with pictures of key examples and a discussion of the properties associated with each notion. We begin with a description of three extrinsic…

The definition of quantum singularity is extended from static space-times to conformally static space-times. After the usual definitions of classical and quantum singularities are reviewed, examples of quantum singularities in static…

We discuss two different in general natural approaches to the ideal closure and ideal boundary of Busemann nonpositively curved metric space. It is shown that the identity map of the space admits surjective continuation from its coarse…

This paper investigates the failure of certain metric measure spaces to be infinitesimally Hilbertian or quasi-Riemannian manifolds, by constructing examples arising from a manifold $M$ endowed with a Riemannian metric $g$ that is possibly…

The completeness properties of spaces of immersed curves equipped with reparametrization-invariant Riemannian metrics have recently been the subject of active research. This thesis studies the metric completion of spaces of immersed open…

The spaces of Riemannian metrics on a closed manifold $M$ are studied. On the space ${\mathcal M}$ of all Riemannian metrics on $M$ the various weak Riemannian structures are defined and the corresponding connections are studied. The space…

We introduce boundary special generic maps, a class of submersions from manifolds with boundary to Euclidean spaces whose restriction to the boundary has only boundary definite fold points as its singular points. We derive the…

This paper is an attempt to classify finite-time singularities of PDEs. Most of the problems considered describe free-surface flows, which are easily observed experimentally. We consider problems where the singularity occurs at a point, and…

We study the boundary rigidity problem with partial data consisting of determining locally the Riemannian metric of a Riemannian manifold with boundary from the distance function measured at pairs of points near a fixed point on the…

We list up to M\"obius equivalence all possible degrees and embedding dimensions of real surfaces that are covered by at least two pencils of circles, together with the number of such pencils. In addition, we classify incidences between the…

We consider spacetime metrics with a given (but quite generic) dependence on a dimensionful parameter such that in the 0 and infinity limits of that parameter the metric becomes singular. We study the isometry groups of the original…

Several years ago, two of the present authors proposed the concept of the border of spacetime as a generalization of spacetime singularities. Visible borders of spacetime, which replace naked singularities of classical theory, are not only…

We present a criterion for the stochastic completeness of a submanifold in terms of its distance to a hypersurface in the ambient space. This relies in a suitable version of the Hessian comparison theorem. In the sequel we apply a…

A particular Riemannian metric which originally has been obtained for a well-known coordinate system in the Euclidean 3-space, is shown to specify, in fact, a manifold with boundary. There are two ways to make the manifold complete. One is…

We show that a wide range of overdetermined boundary problems for semilinear equations with position-dependent nonlinearities admits nontrivial solutions. The result holds true both on the Euclidean space and on compact Riemannian…

The Martin boundary of a Cartan-Hadamard manifold describes a fine geometric structure at infinity, which is a sub-space of positive harmonic functions. We describe conditions which ensure that some points of the sphere at infinity belong…

The concept of time-space defined in an earlier paper of the author is a certain generalization of the so-called space-time. In this paper we introduce the concept of time-space manifolds. In the homogeneous case, a time-space manifold is a…

In this paper we extend our 2007 paper, Comparative Quantum Cosmology: Causality, Singularity, and Boundary Conditions, arXiv:0710.5046 to include consideration of universal expansion, various implications of extendibility and…

We investigate existence and uniqueness of bounded solutions of parabolic equations with unbounded coefficients in $M\times \mathbb R_+$, where $M$ is a complete noncompact Riemannian manifold. Under specific assumptions, we establish…
