Lorentzian causality theory

E Minguzzi - Living reviews in relativity, 2019 - Springer
I review Lorentzian causality theory paying particular attention to the optimality and
generality of the presented results. I include complete proofs of some foundational results …

Causality theory for closed cone structures with applications

E Minguzzi - Reviews in Mathematical Physics, 2019 - World Scientific
We develop causality theory for upper semi-continuous distributions of cones over manifolds
generalizing results from mathematical relativity in two directions: non-round cones and non …

Lorentzian length spaces

M Kunzinger, C Sämann - Annals of global analysis and geometry, 2018 - Springer
We introduce an analogue of the theory of length spaces into the setting of Lorentzian
geometry and causality theory. The rôle of the metric is taken over by the time separation …

Optimal transport in Lorentzian synthetic spaces, synthetic timelike Ricci curvature lower bounds and applications

F Cavalletti, A Mondino - arxiv preprint arxiv:2004.08934, 2020 - arxiv.org
The goal of the present work is three-fold. The first goal is to set foundational results on
optimal transport in Lorentzian (pre-) length spaces, including cyclical monotonicity, stability …

On the initial singularity and extendibility of flat quasi-de Sitter spacetimes

G Geshnizjani, E Ling, J Quintin - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 - Springer
A bstract Inflationary spacetimes have been argued to be past geodesically incomplete in
many situations. However, whether the geodesic incompleteness implies the existence of an …

Rényi's entropy on Lorentzian spaces. Timelike curvature-dimension conditions

M Braun - Journal de Mathématiques Pures et Appliquées, 2023 - Elsevier
For a Lorentzian space measured by m in the sense of Kunzinger, Sämann, Cavalletti, and
Mondino, we introduce and study synthetic notions of timelike lower Ricci curvature bounds …

A review of Lorentzian synthetic theory of timelike Ricci curvature bounds

F Cavalletti, A Mondino - General Relativity and Gravitation, 2022 - Springer
The goal of this survey is to give a self-contained introduction to synthetic timelike Ricci
curvature bounds for (possibly non-smooth) Lorentzian spaces via optimal transport and …

The singularity theorems of general relativity and their low regularity extensions

R Steinbauer - Jahresbericht der Deutschen Mathematiker …, 2023 - Springer
On the occasion of Sir Roger Penrose's 2020 Nobel Prize in Physics, we review the
singularity theorems of General Relativity, as well as their recent extension to Lorentzian …

A Lorentzian analog for Hausdorff dimension and measure

RJ McCann, C Sämann - Pure and Applied Analysis, 2022 - msp.org
We define a one-parameter family of canonical volume measures on Lorentzian (pre-)
length spaces. In the Lorentzian setting, this allows us to define a geometric dimension …

Singularity Theorems for -Lorentzian Metrics

M Graf - Communications in Mathematical Physics, 2020 - Springer
Continuing recent efforts in extending the classical singularity theorems of General Relativity
to low regularity metrics, we give a complete proof of both the Hawking and the Penrose …
