Foliations by constant mean curvature tubes
Let Γ be a nondegenerate geodesic in a compact Riemannian manifold M . We prove the existence of a partial foliation of a neighbourhood of Γ by CMC surfaces which are small perturbations of the geodesic tubes about Γ. There are gaps in this foliation, which correspond to a bifurcation phenomenon. Conversely, we also prove, under certain restrictions, that the existence of a partial CMC foliatio...
متن کاملConstant mean curvature foliations in cosmological spacetimes
Foliations by constant mean curvature hypersurfaces provide a possibility of defining a preferred time coordinate in general relativity. In the following various conjectures are made about the existence of foliations of this kind in spacetimes satisfying the strong energy condition and possessing compact Cauchy hypersurfaces. Recent progress on proving these conjectures under supplementary assu...
متن کاملConstant curvature foliations in asymptotically hyperbolic spaces
Let (M, g) be an asymptotically hyperbolic manifold with a smooth conformal compactification. We establish a general correspondence between semilinear elliptic equations of scalar curvature type on ∂M and Weingarten foliations in some neighbourhood of infinity inM . We focus mostly on foliations where each leaf has constant mean curvature, though our results apply equally well to foliations whe...
متن کاملConstant Mean Curvature Foliations of Simplicial Flat Spacetimes
Benedetti and Guadagnini [5] have conjectured that the constant mean curvature foliation Mτ in a 2 + 1 dimensional flat spacetime V with compact hyperbolic Cauchy surfaces satisfies limτ→−∞ lMτ = sT , where lMτ and sT denote the marked length spectrum ofMτ and the marked measure spectrum of the R-tree T , dual to the measured foliation corresponding to the translational part of the holonomy of ...
متن کاملLocal canonical foliations of Lorentzian manifolds with bounded curvature
We consider pointed Lorentzian manifolds and construct “canonical” foliations by constant mean curvature (CMC) hypersurfaces. Our result assumes a uniform bound on the local sup-norm of the curvature of the manifold and on its local injectivity radius, only. The prescribed curvature problem under consideration is a nonlinear elliptic equation whose coefficients have limited regularity. The CMC ...
