We show that conformal transformations on the generalized Minkowski space $\mathbb{R}^{p,q}$ map hyperboloids and affine hyperplanes into hyperboloids and affine hyperplanes. We also show that this action on hyperboloids and affine hyperplanes is transitive when $p$ or $q$ is $0$, and that this action has exactly three…

Study of curvature flow in Minkowski space converging to a hyperboloid.

In [7] Klainerman introduced the hyperboloidal method to prove the global existence results for nonlinear Klein-Gordon equations by using commuting vector fields. In this paper, we extend the hyperboloidal method from Minkowski space to Lorentzian spacetimes. This approach is developed in [14] for proving, under the ma…

We consider an application involving a financial quadratic portfolio of options, when the joint underlying log-returns changes with multivariate elliptic distribution. This motivates the needs for methods for the approximation of multiple integrals over hyperboloids. A transformation is used to reduce the hyperboloid i…

Compact spacelike hypersurface with constant curvature and boundary angles must be part of a hyperboloid.

We consider several geometric inequalities in general relativity involving mass, area, charge, and angular momentum for asymptotically hyperboloidal initial data. We show how to reduce each one to the known maximal (or time symmetric) case in the asymptotically flat setting, whenever a geometrically motivated system of…

We study convex polyhedra in three-space that are inscribed in a quadric surface. Up to projective transformations, there are three such surfaces: the sphere, the hyperboloid, and the cylinder. Our main result is that a planar graph $Γ$ is realized as the $1$-skeleton of a polyhedron inscribed in the hyperboloid or cyl…

In this paper, we obtain a sufficient and necessary condition for a simply connected Riemannian manifold $(M^n, g)$ to be isometrically immersed, as a submanifold with codimension $p\geq 1$, into the product $S^k\times H^{n+p-k}$ of sphere and hyperboloid.

The paper proves rigidity theorems for space-like hypersurfaces in Minkowski space.

Here are described the geometric structures of the lines of principal curvature and the partially umbilic singularities of the tridimensional non compact generic quadric hypersurfaces of ${\mathbb R}^4$. This includes the ellipsoidal hyperboloids of one and two sheets and the toroidal hyperboloids. The present study co…

We establish some characterizations of elliptic hyperboloids (resp., ellipsoids) in the $(n+1)$-dimensional Euclidean space ${\Bbb E}^{n+1}$, using the $n$-dimensional area of the sections cut off by hyperplanes and the $(n+1)$-dimensional volume of regions between parallel hyperplanes. We also give a few characterizat…

The paper proves energy theorems for specific initial data sets in 3D spacetime.

We present a procedure for asymptotic gluing of hyperboloidal initial data sets that preserves the shear-free condition. Our construction is modeled on a previous gluing construction by the last three named authors, but with significant modifications that incorporate the shear-free condition. We rely on the special Höl…

Researchers prove a Penrose inequality for spacetime with specific conditions.

Two-dimensional affine A-nets in 3-space are quadrilateral meshes that discretize surfaces parametrized along asymptotic lines. The characterizing property of A-nets is planarity of vertex stars, so for generic A-nets the elementary quadrilaterals are skew. We classify the simply connected affine A-nets that can be ext…

Study on stability of geodesic maps in non-isotropic manifolds.

Due to the isotropy $d$-dimensional hyperbolic space, there exist a spherically symmetric fundamental solution for its corresponding Laplace-Beltrami operator. On the $R$-radius hyperboloid model of $d$-dimensional hyperbolic geometry with $R>0$ and $d\ge 2$, we compute azimuthal Fourier expansions for a fundamental so…

In this paper we construct an example of a weakly complete maximal surface in the Lorentz-Minkowski space L^3, which is bounded by a hyperboloid. Moreover, all the singularities of our example are of lightlike type.

We show that any polyhomogeneous asymptotically hyperbolic constant-mean-curvature solution to the vacuum Einstein constraint equations can be approximated, arbitrarily closely in Hölder norms determined by the physical metric, by shear-free smoothly conformally compact vacuum initial data.

The paper introduces exponential-wrapped distributions on symmetric spaces for better data modeling.

We consider the Einstein-Maxwell-fluid constraint equations, and make use of the conformal method to construct and parametrize constant-mean-curvature hyperboloidal initial data sets that satisfy the shear-free condition. This condition is known to be necessary in order that a spacetime development admit a regular conf…

This paper connects billiards in ellipses to focal billiards in ellipsoids.

We show that a set of conformally invariant equations derived from the Fefferman-Graham tensor can be used to construct global solutions of the vacuum Einstein equations, in all even dimensions. This gives, in particular, a new, simple proof of Friedrich's result on the future hyperboloidal stability of Minkowski space…

We discuss Darboux-Staude type of thread configurations for the ellipsoid similar to Chasles-Graves type of thread configurations for the ellipse. These threads are formed by rectilinear segments, geodesic and line of curvature segments on the considered ellipsoid and with tangents tangent to the given ellipsoid and a …

We investigate, in some details, symplectic equivalence between several conformal classes of Lorentz metrics on the hyperboloid of one sheet $H^{1,1} \cong T \times T - Δ$ and affine coadjoint orbits of the group $Diff_+(Δ)$ of orientation preserving diffeomorphisms of $Δ\cong T$ with its natural projective structure. …

We investigate the relation between quadrics and their Christoffel duals on the one hand, and certain zero mean curvature surfaces and their Gauss maps on the other hand. To study the relation between timelike minimal surfaces and the Christoffel duals of 1-sheeted hyperboloids we introduce para-holomorphic elliptic fu…

A large class of vacuum space-times is constructed in dimension 4+1 from hyperboloidal initial data sets which are not small perturbations of empty space data. These space-times are future geodesically complete, smooth up to their future null infinity, and extend as vacuum space-times through their Cauchy horizon. Dime…

We use the quaternion Kahler reduction technique to study old and new self-dual Einstein metrics of negative scalar curvature with at least a two-dimensional isometry group, and relate the quotient construction to the hyperbolic eigenfunction Ansatz. We focus in particular on the (semi-)quaternion Kahler quotients of (…

It is shown that existence of a global solution to a particular nonlinear system of second order partial differential equations on a complete connected Riemannian manifold has topological and geometric implications and that in the domain of positivity of such solution its reciprocal is the radial function of only one o…

We perform global and local analysis of oscillatory and damped spherically symmetric fundamental solutions for Helmholtz operators $\big({-}Δ\pmβ^2\big)$ in $d$-dimensional, $R$-radius hyperbolic ${\mathbf H}_R^d$ and hyperspherical ${\mathbf S}_R^d$ geometry, which represent Riemannian manifolds with positive constant…

We consider the horospherical transform and its inversion in 3 examples of hyperboloids. We want to illustrate via these examples the fact that the horospherical inversion formulas can be directly extracted from the classical Radon inversion formula. In a more broad context, this possibility reflects the fact that the …

This paper establishes an interesting connection between the family of CMC surfaces of revolution in $\mathbb E_1^3$ and some specific families of elliptic curves. As a consequence of this connection, we show in the class of spacelike CMC surfaces of revolution in the $\mathbb E_1^3$, only spacelike cylinders and stand…

Existence and uniqueness in ${\Bbb R}^{n,1}$ of entire spacelike hypersurfaces contained in the future of the origin $O$ and asymptotic to the light-cone, with scalar curvature prescribed at their generic point $M$ as a negative function of the unit vector $\overrightarrow{Om}$ pointing in the direction of $\overrighta…

In \cite{ly, ly2}, Liu and the second author propose a definition of the quasi-local mass and prove its positivity. This is demonstrated through an inequality which in turn can be interpreted as a total mean curvature comparison theorem for isometric embeddings of a surface of positive Gaussian curvature. The Riemannia…
