Synthetic versus distributional lower Ricci curvature bounds

Michael Kunzinger, Michael Oberguggenberger, James A. Vickers

We compare two standard approaches to defining lower Ricci curvature bounds for Riemannian metrics of regularity below . These are, on the one hand, the synthetic definition v…

Nonlinear generalised functions on manifolds

Eduard A. Nigsch, James A. Vickers

This paper lays the foundations for a nonlinear theory of differential geometry that is developed in a subsequent paper which is based on Colombeau algebras of tensor distributions…

Green operators for low regularity spacetimes

Yafet Sanchez Sanchez, James Vickers

In this paper we define and construct advanced and retarded Green operators for the wave operator on spacetimes with low regularity. In order to do so we require that the spacetime…

Generalised hyperbolicity in spacetimes with string-like singularities

Yafet Sanchez Sanchez, James A. Vickers

In this paper we present well-posedness results of the wave equation in for spacetimes that contain string-like singularities. These results extend a framework able to char…

Generalised hyperbolicity in spacetimes with Lipschitz regularity

Yafet Sanchez Sanchez, James A. Vickers

In this paper, we obtain general conditions under which the wave equation is well-posed in spacetimes with metrics of Lipschitz regularity. In particular, the results can be applie…

The Penrose singularity theorem in regularity

Michael Kunzinger, Roland Steinbauer, James A. Vickers

We extend the validity of the Penrose singularity theorem to spacetime metrics of regularity . The proof is based on regularisation techniques, combined with recent result…
