In this paper, we study complete hypersurfaces with constant mean curvature in anti-de Sitter space $H^{n+1}_1(-1)$. we prove that if a complete space-like hypersurface with constant mean curvature $x:\mathbf M\rightarrow H^{n+1}_1(-1) $ has two distinct principal curvatures $λ,μ$, and inf$|λ-μ|>0$, then $x$ is the standard embedding $ H^{m} (-\frac{1}{r^2})\times H^{n-m} (-\frac{1}{1 - r^2})$in anti-de Sitter space $ H^{n+1}_1 (-1)$.
Anti-de Sitter space is the Lorentzian space form with negative curvature. In this paper we consider lightlike hypersurfaces along spacelike submanifolds in anti-de Sitter space with general codimension. In particular, we investigate the singularities of lightlike hypersurfaces as an application of the theory of Legendrian singularities.
We prove existence of compact spacelike hypersurfaces with prescribed k - curvature in de Sitter space, where the prescription function depends on both space and the tilt function.
In this paper we present a rigidity theorem for locally isometric hypersurfaces with a curvature restriction in de Sitter space. This is an analogue to the case for Riemannian space forms given by Guan and Shen in [5].
We study the isometric spacelike embedding problem in scaled de Sitter space, and obtain Weyl-type estimates and the corresponding closedness in the space of embeddings.
In this paper, we use two conformal non-homogeneous coordinate systems, modeled on the de Sitter space ${\mathbb S}^{m+1}_1$, to cover the conformal space ${\mathbb Q}^{m+1}_1$, so that the conformal geometry of regular space-like hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{Q}^{m+1}_1$ is treated as that of hypersurfaces in ${\mathbb S}^{m+1}_1$. As a result, we give a complete classification of the regular space-like hypersurfaces (represented in the de Sitter space ${\mathbb S}^{m+1}_1$) with parallel Blaschke tensors.
We consider contracting flows in $(n+1)$-dimensional hyperbolic space and expanding flows in $(n+1)$-dimensional de Sitter space. When the flow hypersurfaces are strictly convex we relate the contracting hypersurfaces and the expanding hypersurfaces by the Gauss map. The contracting hypersurfaces shrink to a point $x_0$ in finite time while the expanding hypersurfaces converge to the maximal slice $\{ τ=0\}$. After rescaling, by the same scale factor, the resclaed contracting hypersurfaces converge to a unit geodesic sphere, while the rescaled expanding hypersufaces converge to slice $\{ τ= -1…
We prove uniqueness, existence, and regularity results for maximal hypersurfaces in spacetimes with a conformal completion at timelike infinity and asymptotically constant scalar curvature, as relevant for asymptotically AdS spacetimes. This work is dedicated to Yvonne Choquet-Bruhat on the occasion of her upcoming 99th birthday.
A world sheet in anti-de Sitter space is a timelike submanifold consisting of a one-parameter family of spacelike submanifolds. We consider the family of lightlike hypersurfaces along spacelike submanifolds in the world sheet. The locus of the singularities of lightlike hypersurfaces along spacelike submanifolds forms the caustic of the world sheet. This notion is originally introduced by Bousso and Randall in theoretical physics. In this paper we give a mathematical framework for the caustics of world sheets as an application of the theory of graph-like Legendrian unfoldings.
Local estimates of the maximal curvatures of admissible spacelike hypersurfaces in de Sitter space for k-symmetric curvature functions are obtained. They depend on interior and boundary data.
Submanifolds in Lorentz-Minkowski space are investigated from various mathematical viewpoints and are of interest also in relativity theory. We define the hyperbolic surface and the de Sitter surface of a curve in the spacelike hypersurface M in the Minkowski 4-space. These surfaces are respectively located in the hyperbolic 3-space and in the de Sitter 3-space. We use techniques of the theory of singularities in order to describe the generic shape of these surfaces and of their singular value sets. We also investigate geometric meanings of those singularities. The results in this paper contri…
In this paper, we give a complete conformal classification of the regular space-like hypersurfaces in the de Sitter Space $\mathbb{S}^{m+1}_{1}$ with parallel para-Blaschke tensors.
We study the asymptotic behavior of convex Cauchy hypersurfaces on maximal globally hyperbolic spatially compact space-times of constant curvature. We generalise the result of [11] to the (2+1) de Sitter and anti de Sitter cases. We prove that in these cases the level sets of quasi-concave times converge in the Gromov equivariant topology, when time goes to 0, to a real tree. Moreover, this limit does not depend on the choice of the time function. We also consider the problem of asymptotic behavior in the flat (n+1) dimensional case. We prove that the level sets of quasi-concave times converge…
We consider the complex hyperbolic quadric ${Q^*}^n$ as a complex hypersurface of complex anti-de Sitter space. Shape operators of this submanifold give rise to a family of local almost product structures on ${Q^*}^n$, which are then used to define local angle functions on any Lagrangian submanifold of ${Q^*}^n$. We prove that a Lagrangian immersion into ${Q^*}^n$ can be seen as the Gauss map of a spacelike hypersurface of (real) anti-de Sitter space and relate the angle functions to the principal curvatures of this hypersurface. We also give a formula relating the mean curvature of the Lagran…
In this paper we provide under certain geometric and physical assumptions new uniqueness and non-existence results for complete spacelike hypersurfaces of constant mean curvature in spatially open Generalized Robertson-Walker spacetimes. Some of our results are then applied to relevant spacetimes as the steady state spacetime, Einstein-de Sitter spacetime and certain radiation models.
In this paper, we determine the type numbers of the pseudo-hyperbolic Gauss maps of all oriented Lorentzian surfaces of constant mean and Gaussian curvatures and non-diagonalizable shape operator in the $3$-dimensional anti-de Sitter space. Also, we investigate the behavior of type numbers of the pseudo-hyperbolic Gauss map along the parallel family of such oriented Lorentzian surfaces in the $3$-dimensional anti-de Sitter space. Furthermore, we investigate the type number of the pseudo-hyperbolic Gauss map of one of Lorentzian hypersurfaces of B-scroll type in a general dimensional anti-de Si…
In this paper we prove the Penrose inequality for metrics that are small perturbations of the Schwarzschild anti-de Sitter metrics of positive mass. We use the existence of a global foliation by weakly stable constant mean curvature spheres and the monotonicity of the Hawking mass.
In this paper, we consider the inverse hessian quotient curvature flow with star-shaped initial hypersurface in anti-de Sitter-Schwarzschild manifold. We prove that the solution exists for all time, and the second fundamental form converges to identity exponentially fast.
Let $S$ be a closed oriented surface of genus at least $2$. Using the parameterisation of the deformation space of globally hyperbolic maximal anti-de Sitter structures on $S \times \mathbb{R}$ by the cotangent bundle over the Teichmüller space of $S$, we study the behaviour of these geometric structures along pinching sequences. We show, in particular, that the regular globally hyperbolic anti-de Sitter structures introduced in arXiv:1806.08176 naturally appear as limiting points.
The classical Minkowski inequality in the Euclidean space provides a lower bound on the total mean curvature of a hypersurface in terms of the surface area, which is optimal on round spheres. In this paper we employ a locally constrained inverse mean curvature flow to prove a properly defined analogue in the Lorentzian de Sitter space.
We establish mean curvature estimate for immersed hypersurface with nonnegative extrinsic scalar curvature in Riemannian manifold $(N^{n+1}, \bar g)$ through regularity study of a degenerate fully nonlinear curvature equation in general Riemannian manifold. The estimate has a direct consequence for the Weyl isometric embedding problem of $(\mathbb S^2, g)$ in $3$-dimensional warped product space $(N^3, \bar g)$. We also discuss isometric embedding problem in spaces with horizon in general relativity, like the Anti-de Sitter-Schwarzschild manifolds and the Reissner-Nordström manifolds.
We establish the positive energy theorem for weak asymptotically anti-de Sitter initial data sets with distributional curvature under the weak dominant energy condition.
We establish the inequality for Henneaux-Teitelboim's total energy-momentum for asymptotically anti-de Sitter initial data sets which are asymptotic to arbitrary $t$-slice in anti-de Sitter spacetime. In particular, when $t=0$, it generalizes Chruściel-Maerten-Tod's inequality in the center of AdS mass coordinates. We also show that the determinant of energy-momentum endomorphism ${\bf Q}$ is the geometric invariant of asymptotically anti-de Sitter spacetimes.
In this paper, under natural geometric and physical assumptions we provide new uniqueness and non-existence results for complete maximal hypersurfaces in spatially open Robertson-Walker spacetimes whose fiber is flat. Moreover, our results are applied to relevant spacetimes as the steady state spacetime, Einstein-de Sitter spacetime and radiation models.
We study geodesics along a noncompact Kerr-Newman instanton, where the asymptotic geometry is either de Sitter or anti-de Sitter. We use first integrals for the Hamilton-Jacobi equation to characterize trajectories both near and away from horizons. We study the interaction of geodesics with special features of the metric, particularly regions of angular degeneracy or "theta horizons" in the de Sitter case. Finally, we characterize a number of stable equilibrium orbits.
