We present a systematic study of causality theory on Lorentzian manifolds with continuous metrics. Examples are given which show that some standard facts in smooth Lorentzian geometry, such as light-cones being hypersurfaces, are wrong when metrics which are merely continuous are considered. We show that existence of t…

This is a continuation of paper \cite{Li}. On any toric Fano manifold, we discuss the behavior of limit metric of a sequence of metrics, which are solutions to a continuity family of complex Monge-Ampere equations in Kahler-Einstein problem. We show that the limit metric satisfies a singular complex Monge-Ampere equati…

Unique continuation results are proved for metrics with prescribed Ricci curvature in the setting of bounded metrics on compact manifolds with boundary, and in the setting of complete, conformally compact metrics. Related to this issue, an isometry extension property is proved: continuous groups of isometries at confor…

Study on heat equation and eigenfunctions on RCD spaces, proving unique continuation.

It is well-known that the class of piecewise smooth curves together with a smooth Riemannian metric induces a metric space structure on a manifold. However, little is known about the minimal regularity needed to analyze curves and particularly to study length-minimizing curves where neither classical techniques such as…

We construct continuous families of scattering manifolds with the same scattering phase. The manifolds are compactly supported metric perturbations of Euclidean $\mathbf{R}^{n}$ for $n\geq8$. The metric perturbation may have arbitrarily small support.

We consider pointwise linear elliptic equations of the form $\mathrm{L}_x u_x = η_x$ on a smooth compact manifold where the operators $\mathrm{L}_x$ are in divergence form with real, bounded, measurable coefficients that vary in the space variable $x$. We establish $\mathrm{L}^{2}$-continuity of the solutions at $x$ wh…

The maximal analytic Schwarzschild spacetime is manifestly inextendible as a Lorentzian manifold with a twice continuously differentiable metric. In this paper, we prove the stronger statement that it is even inextendible as a Lorentzian manifold with a continuous metric. To capture the obstruction to continuous extens…

Study on continuity of solutions for complex Monge-Ampère equations with movable singularities.

We prove that the partial $C^0$-estimate holds for metrics along Aubin's continuity method for finding Kähler-Einstein metrics, confirming a special case of a conjecture due to Tian. We use the method developed in recent work of Chen-Donaldson-Sun on the analogous problem for conical Kähler-Einstein metrics.

We consider rough metrics on smooth manifolds and corresponding Laplacians induced by such metrics. We demonstrate that globally continuous heat kernels exist and are Hölder continuous locally in space and time. This is done via local parabolic Harnack estimates for weak solutions of operators in divergence form with b…

We prove that, on a minimal elliptic Kähler surface of Kodaira dimension one, the continuity method introduced by La Nave and Tian in \cite{LT} starting from any initial Kähler metric converges in Gromov-Hausdorff topology to the metric completion of the generalized Kähler-Einstein metric on its canonical model constru…

It is a well-known fact that on a bounded spectral interval the Dirac spectrum can be described locally by a non-decreasing sequence of continuous functions of the Riemannian metric. In the present article we extend this result to a global version. We think of the spectrum of a Dirac operator as a function from the int…

We study finite-time collapsing limits of the continuity method. When the continuity method starting from a rational initial Kähler metric on a projective manifold encounters a finite-time volume collapsing, this projective manifold admits a Fano fibration over a lower dimensional base. In this case, we prove the conti…

We construct continuous families of Riemannian metrics on certain simply connected manifolds with the property that the resulting Riemannian manifolds are pairwise isospectral for the Laplace operator acting on functions. These are the first examples of simply connected Riemannian manifolds without boundary which are i…

We present a construction of complete self-dual Einstein metrics of negative scalar curvature on an uncountable family of manifolds of infinite topological type, which are enumerated by continued fraction expansions of irrational numbers. These manifolds may be regarded as limits of the resolutions of cyclic quotient s…

We extend the Weil-Petersson metric to a projective variety with continuous local potentials.

In this paper we prove the existence of coupled Kähler-Einstein metrics on complex manifolds whose canonical bundle is ample. These metrics were introduced and their existence in the said case was proven by Hultgren and Nyström using calculus of variations. We prove the result using the method of continuity. In the pro…

We extend the continuity equation of La Nave-Tian to Hermitian metrics and establish its interval of maximal existence. The equation is closely related to the Chern-Ricci flow, and we illustrate this in the case of elliptic bundles over a curve of genus at least two.

We prove that the upper metric mean dimension of $C^0$-generic homeomorphisms, acting on a compact smooth boundaryless manifold with dimension greater than one, coincides with the dimension of the manifold. In the case of continuous interval maps we also show that each level set for the metric mean dimension is $C^0$-d…

The strong unique continuation property for Einstein metrics can be concluded from the well-known fact that Einstein metrics are analytic in geodesic normal coordinates. Here we give a proof of the same result that given two Einstein metrics with the same Ricci curvature on a fixed manifold, if they agree to infinite o…

We discuss existence of extremal curves for continuous metrics and present several old and new examples that highlight their subtle interrelation with solutions of the geodesic equations. Then we turn to the initial value …
