We initiate a series of works where we study the interior of dynamical rotating vacuum black holes without symmetry. In the present paper, we take up the problem starting from appropriate Cauchy data for the Einstein vacuum equations defined on a hypersurface already within the black hole interior, representing the exp…

In this letter a generic counterexample to the strong cosmic censor conjecture is exhibited. More precisely---taking into account that the conjecture lacks any precise formulation yet---first we make sense of what one would mean by a "generic counterexample" by introducing the mathematically unambigous and logically st…

The Strong Cosmic Censorship conjecture states that for generic initial data to Einstein's field equations, the maximal globally hyperbolic development is inextendible. We prove this conjecture in the class of orthogonal Bianchi class B perfect fluids and vacuum spacetimes, by showing that unboundedness of certain curv…

Study cosmic structures using Topological Data Analysis and Persistence Energy.

In recent years, a rapidly growing literature has focussed on the construction of wavelet systems to analyze functions defined on the sphere. Our purpose in this paper is to generalize these constructions to situations where sections of line bundles, rather than ordinary scalar-valued functions, are considered. In part…

Penrose's conjecture links black holes and gravitational singularities.

Fixed points of mean section operators found in convex bodies.

Analogues of the classical inequalities from the Brunn-Minkowski theory for rotation intertwining additive maps of convex bodies are developed. Analogues are also proved of inequalities from the dual Brunn-Minkowski theory for intertwining additive maps of star bodies. These inequalities provide generalizations of resu…

Proves weak cosmic censorship for a specific Einstein-scalar field system in 2+1 dimensions.

We prove that a large class of smooth solutions $ψ$ to the linear wave equation $\Box_gψ=0$ on subextremal rotating Kerr spacetimes which are regular and decaying along the event horizon become singular at the Cauchy horizon. More precisely, we show that assuming appropriate upper and lower bounds on the energy along t…

Proposes a weaker version of Strong Cosmic Censorship with curvature bounds.

New model reduces bias in cosmic shear measurements.

This paper addresses strong cosmic censorship for spacetimes with self-gravitating collisionless matter, evolving from surface-symmetric compact initial data. The global dynamics exhibit qualitatively different features according to the sign of the curvature $k$ of the symmetric surfaces and the cosmological constant $…

The paper defines a category of Lagrangian correspondences in super Hilbert spaces and constructs a functorial field theory.

We consider how microlocal methods developed for tomographic problems can be used to detect singularities of the Lorentzian metric of the Universe using measurements of the Cosmic Microwave Background radiation. The physical model we study is mathematically rigorous but highly idealized.

We explore the use of random forest and gradient boosting, two powerful tree-based machine learning algorithms, for the detection of cosmic strings in maps of the cosmic microwave background (CMB), through their unique Gott-Kaiser-Stebbins effect on the temperature anisotropies.The information in the maps is compressed…

Dark matter in the universe evolves through gravity to form a complex network of halos, filaments, sheets and voids, that is known as the cosmic web. Computational models of the underlying physical processes, such as classical N-body simulations, are extremely resource intensive, as they track the action of gravity in …

The large-scale structure of the universe is comprised of virialized blob-like clusters, linear filaments, sheet-like walls and huge near empty three-dimensional voids. Characterizing the large scale universe is essential to our understanding of the formation and evolution of galaxies. The density range of clusters, wa…

Study geometric properties of generalized vacuum static spaces.

We study stationary configurations mimicking nonholonomic locally anisotropic black rings (for instance, with ellipsoidal polarizations and/or imbedded into solitonic backgrounds) in three/six dimensional pseudo-Finsler/ Riemannian spacetimes. In the asymptotically flat limit, for holonomic configurations, a subclass o…

We address the issue of strong cosmic censorship for T^2-symmetric spacetimes with positive cosmological constant. In the case of collisionless matter, we complete the proof of the C^2 formulation of the conjecture for this class of spacetimes. In the vacuum case, we prove that the conjecture holds for the special case…

Given an isometric immersion $f\colon M^n\to \R^{n+1}$ of a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension $n\geq 3$ into Euclidean space of dimension $n+1$, we prove that the identity component $Iso^0(M^n)$ of the isometry group $Iso(M^n)$ of $M^n$ admits an orthogonal representation $Φ\colon Iso^0(M^n)\to SO(n+1)$ such tha…

In this paper we construct new solutions of the Kahler-Yang-Mills equations, by applying dimensional reduction methods to the product of the complex projective line with a compact Riemann surface. The resulting equations, that we call gravitating vortex equations, describe Abelian vortices on the Riemann surface with b…

We classify the polar actions on the complex hyperbolic plane up to orbit equivalence. Apart from the trivial and transitive polar actions, there are five polar actions of cohomogeneity one and four polar actions of cohomogeneity two.

Polarized and $G$-polarized CR manifolds are smooth manifolds endowed with a double structure: a real foliation $\Cal F$ (given by the action of a Lie group $G$ in the $G$-polarized case) and a transverse CR distribution $(E,J)$. Polarized means that $(E,J)$ is roughly speaking invariant by $\Cal F$. Both structures ar…

We carry out the harmonic analysis on four Platonic spherical three-manifolds with different topologies. Starting out from the homotopies (Everitt 2004), we convert them into deck operations, acting on the simply connected three-sphere as the cover, and obtain the corresponding variety of deck groups. For each topology…

A polarity of a projective plane is a map, often assumed to be involutive, mapping a generic point to a generic line and reciprocally. The most classical polarity is the polarity with respect to a conic, but other exist: the harmonic polarity with respect to a triangle, the polarities with respect to high-degree algebr…

The generic fiber of a Lagrangian fibration on an irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifold is an abelian variety. Associate a polarization type to such Lagrangian fibrations coming from polarizations on a generic fiber. We prove that this polarization type is constant in families of Lagrangian fibrations. Further, w…
