Conformal Killing fields satisfy a third order PDE

Let $(M,g)$ be a $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold with smooth metric $g$. Proposition 3.2 in the paper "The Boost Problem in General Relativity" by O'Murchadha and Chistodoulou claims that any conf …

Given the Ricci decays rapidly to 0 at infinity, is the metric asymptotically flat?

Consider the manifold $M=\mathbb{R}^3 \setminus B$ where B is the ball with radius 1. Let $f \in C^{ \infty}(M) $ satisfying: $$f = \frac{C(\theta, \phi)}{r} + O( r^{-2}) $$ Where $(r,\theta,\phi)$ …

$C^0$ estimate for solutions of elliptic PDE with Neumann BC

Suppose for simplicity that $M$ is a compact n-dimensional submanifold of $\mathbb{R}^n$ with boundary. Extend $f$ to all $\mathbb{R}^n$ so that it's $0$ outside $M$ and define the function $u_1(x) := …

For a 1-parameter family of metrics, how do we compute the derivative of the intrinsic geome...

Consider a family of metrics and functions $(g(t), u(t))$ on $M:= \mathbb{R}^3 \setminus B_1$ satisfying $$ g(0) = g_0, \quad g'(0) = \tilde g, \quad u(0) = u_0, \quad u'(0) = \tilde u$$ where $g_0$, …

Solvability of a PDE involving the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator

Let $M = \mathbb{R}^3 \setminus B_1$ where $B_1$ is the unit ball (equip $M$ with the euclidean metric for simplicity, but it will be replaced by an arbitrary asymptotically flat metric). Let $N: L^2( …

Are metrics of the form $dr^2+ \Omega^2 r^2 g_\text{round}$ asymptotically flat?

Let $M = [1,\infty)\times S^2$. Let $\Omega$ be any smooth positive function on $S^2$. Is the metric $dr^2+ \Omega^2 r^2 g_\text{round}$ asymptotically flat (where $g_\text{round}$ is the round metric …

The differentiability of the distance function on asymptotically flat manifolds

Let $M = \mathbb{R}^3 \setminus \overline{B_1}$ where $\overline{B_1}$ is the closed unit ball. Let $g$ be an asymptotically flat metric of the form $g_{ij} = \delta_{ij}+h_{ij}$ in standard coordinat …

Is $L^2([a,b]; L^2(S^2))$ the same as $L^2([a,b] \times S^2)$?

The space $L^2([a,b];L^2(S^2))$ is a Banach space with respect to the norm $$\left\Vert f \right\Vert_1^2 = \int_{a}^b \left\Vert f(r) \right\Vert_{L^2(S^2)}^2 dr$$ The space $L^2([a,b]\times S^2)$ i …

Let $M := \mathbb{R}^3 \setminus B_1$ where $B_1$ is the unit ball. It is known that for every $g \in H^{\frac{1}{2}} (\partial M)$, and for an appropriate $\delta$, there exists a unique solution $u$ …

Trace theorem for $L^2([0,1]; H^k(S^2))$

Consider a function $u$ in $L^2([0,1]; H^k(S^2))$ where $k$ is a positive integer. Where would $u(0)$ live (or $u(r)$ for some fixed $r \in [0,1]$)? Is there a version of the trace theorem saying that …
