In this paper, we prove that there is no branch point in the Lorentz space (M, d) which is the limit space of a sequence {($M_{\alpha},d_{\alpha}$)} of compact globally hyperbolic interpolating spacetimes with $C^{\pm}_{\alpha}$-properties and curvature bounded below. Using this, we also obtain that every maximal timelike geodesic in the limit space (M, d) can be expressed as the limit curve of a sequence of maximal timelike geodesics in {($M_{\alpha},d_{\alpha}$)}. Finally, we show that the limit space (M, d) satisfies a timelike triangle comparison property which is analogous to the case of Alexandrov curvature bounds in length spaces.

In the present work, we prove the validity of two theorems on null-paths in a version of absolute parallelismgeometry. A version of these theorems has been originally established and proved by Kermak, McCrea and Whittaker (KMW) in the context of Riemannian geometry. The importance of such theorems lies in their applications to derive a general formula for the redshift of spectral lines coming from distant objects. The formula derived in the present work can be applied to both cosmological and astrophysical redshifts. It takes into account the shifts resulting from gravitation, different motions of the source of photons, spin of the moving particle (photons) and the direction of the line of sight. It is shown that this formula cannot be derived in the context of Riemannian geometry, but it can be reduced to a formula given by KMW under certain conditions.

This paper considers foundational issues related to connections in the tangent bundle of a manifold. The approach makes use of second order tangent vectors, i.e., vectors tangent to the tangent bundle. The resulting second order tangent bundle has certain properties, above and beyond those of a typical tangent bundle. In particular, it has a natural secondary vector bundle structure and a canonical involution that interchanges the two structures. The involution provides a nice way to understand the torsion of a connection. The latter parts of the paper deal with the Levi-Civita connection of a Riemannian manifold. The idea is to get at the connection by first finding its.spary. This is a second order vector field that encodes the second order differential equation for geodesics. The paper also develops some machinery involving lifts of vector fields form a manifold to its tangent bundle and uses a variational approach to produce the Riemannian spray.

In this article, we study the relations of horizontally homothetic harmonic morphisms with the stability of totally geodesic submanifolds. Let $\varphi:(M^n,g)\rightarrow(N^m,h)$ be a horizontally homothetic harmonic morphism from a Riemannian manifold into a Riemannian manifold of non-positive sectional curvature and let T be the tensor measuring minimality or totally geodesics of fibers of $\varphi$. We prove that if T is parallel and the horizontal distribution is integrable, then for any totally geodesic submanifold P in N, the inverse set, $\varphi^{-1}$(P), is volume-stable in M. In case that P is a totally geodesic hypersurface the condition on the curvature can be weakened to Ricci curvature.

In this paper we provide characterizations for the Gromov hyperbolicity of some particular Denjoy domains and besides some sufficient conditions to guarantee or discard the hyperbolicity of some others. The conditions obtained involve just the lengths of some special simple closed geodesics in the domain. These results, on the one hand, show the extraordinary complexity of determining the hyperbolicity of a domain and, on the other hand, allow us to construct easily a large variety of both hyperbolic and non-hyperbolic domains.

In this paper, we introduce a new method to construct a parametric surface in terms of curves and points lying on Euclidean 3-space, called a C⁰-Hermite surface interpolation. We also prove the existence of a C⁰-Hermite interpolation of isoparametric surfaces with the so-called marching scale functions, and give some examples. Finally, we construct ruled surfaces and surfaces foliated by a circle as an isoparametric surface.

We classify minimal surfaces in ${\mathbb{S}}^3$ which are foliated by circles and ruled constant mean curvature (cmc) surfaces in ${\mathbb{S}}^3$. First we show that minimal surfaces in ${\mathbb{S}}^3$ which are foliated by circles are either ruled (that is, foliated by geodesics) or rotationally symmetric (that is, invariant under an isometric ${\mathbb{S}}^1$-action which fixes a geodesic). Secondly, we show that, locally, there is only one ruled cmc surface in ${\mathbb{S}}^3$ up to isometry for each nonnegative mean curvature. We give a parametrization of the ruled cmc surface in ${\mathbb{S}}^3$(cf. Theorem 3).

An ideal right-angled pentagon in hyperbolic 4-space ${\mathbb{H}}^4$ is a sequence of oriented geodesics ($L_1,{\ldots},L_5$) such that $L_i$ intersects $L_{i+1},i=1,{\ldots},4$, perpendicularly in ${\mathbb{H}}^4$ and the initial point of $L_1$ coincides with the endpoint of $L_5$ in the boundary at infinity ${\partial}{\mathbb{H}}^4$. We study the geometry of such pentagons and the various possible augmentations and prove identities for the associated quaternion half side lengths as well as other geometrically defined invariants of the configurations. As applications we look at two-generator groups ${\langle}A,B{\rangle}$ of isometries acting on hyperbolic 4-space such that A is parabolic, while B and AB are loxodromic.
