It is proved that a convex hypersurface in a Riemannian manifold of sectional curvature at least k is an Alexandrov's space of curvature at least k. This theorem provides an optimal lower curvature bound for an older theorem of Buyalo.

We investigate anisotropic capillary hypersurfaces within a wedge in Euclidean space. In this study, we generalize the Minkowski norm \(F\), traditionally employed to define the anisotropic surface energy, to a gauge on the unit sphere…

It is our purpose to study complete space-like self-expanders in the Minkovski space. By use of maximum principle of Omori-Yau type, we can obtain the rigidity theorems on $n$-dimensional complete space-like self-expanders in the Minkovski…

The four dimensional spacetime continuum, as first conceived by Minkowski, has become the dominant framework within which to describe physical laws. In this paper, we show how this four-dimensional structure is a natural property of…

A characterization of causal automorphism on Minkowski spacetime is given by use of wave equation. The result shows that causal analysis of spacetime may be replaced by studies of wave equation on manifolds.

We prove an existence theorem for positive solutions to Lichnerowicz-type equations on complete manifolds with boundary and nonlinear Neumann conditions. This kind of nonlinear problems arise quite naturally in the study of solutions for…

Motivated by recent accelerating cosmological model, we derive the solutions to vacuum Einstein equation in $(d+1)$-dimensional Minkowski space with $n$-dimensional hyperbolic manifold. The conditions of accelerating expansion are given in…

The Cayley transform compactifies Minkowski space $\M$, realized as self-adjoint $2\times2$ complex matrices following Penrose, as the unitary group $\U(2)$. Its complement is a compactification of a copy of a light-cone as it is usually…

Using general but simple covariance arguments, we classify the `quantum' Minkowski spaces for dimensionless deformation parameters. This requires a previous analysis of the associated Lorentz groups, which reproduces a previous…

We prove that Alexandrov's conjecture relating the area and diameter of a convex surface holds for the surface of a general ellipsoid. This is a direct consequence of a more general result which estimates the deviation from the optimal…

We perform the Kaluza-Klein reduction of M-theory on warped Calabi-Yau fourfolds with non-trivial four-form flux turned on. The resulting scalar- and superpotential is computed and compared with the superpotential obtained by Gukov, Vafa…

The $\rho$-Minkowski space-time, a Lie-algebraic deformation of the usual Minkowski space-time is considered. A star-product realization of this quantum space-time together with the characterization of the deformed Poincar\'e symmetry…

We present several key results for Lorentzian pre-length spaces with global timelike curvature bounds. Most significantly, we construct a Lorentzian analogue to Alexandrov's Patchwork, thus proving that suitably nice Lorentzian pre-length…

Earlier we have proposed new $q$ - Maxwell equations which are the first members of an infinite new hierarchy of $q$ - difference equations. We have used an indexless formulation in which all indices are traded for two conjugate variables,…

We study codimension two spacelike submanifolds contained into a general class of null hypersurfaces in generalized Robertson-Walker spacetimes, refer to as nullcones. In particular we analyze light cones and lightlike cylinders in…

In this paper, we prove a classification theorem of 4-manifolds according to some conformal invariants, which generalizes the conformally invariant sphere theorem of Chang-Gursky-Yang \cite{CGY}. Moreover, it provides a four-dimensional…

The Cauchy problem for the Chern-Simons-Higgs system in the (2+1)-dimensional Minkowski space in temporal gauge is globally well-posed in energy space improving a result of Huh. The proof uses the bilinear space-time estimates in…

In this paper, we prove an equivariant Kastler-Kalau-Walze type theorem for spin manifolds without boundary. For $6$ dimensional spin manifolds with boundary, we also give an equivariant Kastler-Kalau-Walze type theorem. Then we generalize…

In the Euclidean setting, the well-known Alexandrov theorem states that convex functions are twice differentiable almost everywhere. In this note, we extend this theorem to rank-one convex functions. Our approach is novel in that it draws…

In this paper we apply known techniques from semigroup theory to the Schr\"odinger problem with initial conditions. To this end, we define the regularized Schr\"odinger semigroup acting on a space-time domain and show that it is strongly…
