The Positive Mass Theorem for Creased Initial Data

Demetre Kazaras, Marcus Khuri, Michael Lin

We establish a spacetime positive mass theorem and rigidity statement for asymptotically flat spin initial data sets with a codimension one singularity controlled by a matching Bar…

Proof of the Spacetime Penrose Inequality With Suboptimal Constant in the Asymptotically Flat and Asymptotically Hyperboloidal Regimes

Brian Allen, Edward Bryden, Demetre Kazaras +1

We establish mass lower bounds of Penrose-type in the setting of -dimensional initial data sets for the Einstein equations satisfying the dominant energy condition, which are ei…

Codimension 2 drawstrings with scalar curvature lower bounds

Demetre Kazaras, Kai Xu

We produce new examples of Riemannian manifolds with scalar curvature lower bounds and collapsing behavior along codimension 2 submanifolds. Applications of this construction are g…

Scalar curvature and volume entropy of hyperbolic 3-manifolds

Demetre Kazaras, Antoine Song, Kai Xu

We show that any closed hyperbolic 3-manifold M admits a Riemannian metric with scalar curvature at least -6, but with volume entropy strictly larger than 2. In particular, this co…

Drawstrings and flexibility in the Geroch conjecture

Demetre Kazaras, Kai Xu

In this paper, we observe new phenomena related to the structure of 3-manifolds satisfying lower scalar curvature bounds. We construct warped-product manifolds of almost nonnegativ…

On the Stability of Llarull's Theorem in Dimension Three

Brian Allen, Edward Bryden, Demetre Kazaras

Llarull's Theorem states that any Riemannian metric on the -sphere which has scalar curv{\-}ature greater than or equal to , and whose distance function is bounded below…

Spectral Torical Band Inequalities and Generalizations of the Schoen-Yau Black Hole Existence Theorem

Sven Hirsch, Demetre Kazaras, Marcus Khuri +1

Generalized torical band inequalities give precise upper bounds for the width of compact manifolds with boundary in terms of positive pointwise lower bounds for scalar curvature, a…

Stability of the positive mass theorem and torus rigidity theorems under integral curvature bounds

Brian Allen, Edward Bryden, Demetre Kazaras

Work of D. Stern and Bray-Kazaras-Khuri-Stern provide differential-geometric identities which relate the scalar curvature of Riemannian 3-manifolds to global invariants in terms of…

Rigid comparison geometry for Riemannian bands and open incomplete manifolds

Sven Hirsch, Demetre Kazaras, Marcus Khuri +1

Comparison theorems are foundational to our understanding of the geometric features implied by various curvature constraints. This paper considers manifolds with a positive lower b…

Stability of the positive mass theorem under Ricci curvature lower bounds

Demetre Kazaras, Marcus Khuri, Dan Lee

We establish Gromov-Hausdorff stability of the Riemannian positive mass theorem under the assumption of a Ricci curvature lower bound. More precisely, consider a class of orientabl…

Spacetime Harmonic Functions and Applications to Mass

Hubert Bray, Sven Hirsch, Demetre Kazaras +2

In the pioneering work of Stern, level sets of harmonic functions have been shown to be an effective tool in the study of scalar curvature in dimension 3. Generalizations of this i…

Spacetime Harmonic Functions and the Mass of 3-Dimensional Asymptotically Flat Initial Data for the Einstein Equations

Sven Hirsch, Demetre Kazaras, Marcus Khuri

We give a lower bound for the Lorentz length of the ADM energy-momentum vector (ADM mass) of 3-dimensional asymptotically flat initial data sets for the Einstein equations. The bou…

Hubert L. Bray, Demetre P. Kazaras, Marcus A. Khuri +1

An explicit lower bound for the mass of an asymptotically flat Riemannian 3-manifold is given in terms of linear growth harmonic functions and scalar curvature. As a consequence, a…
