Abstract
We generalize the spacetime positive mass theorem to include multiple time dimensions. Equality in this energy inequality implies a foliation by flat submanifolds of a generalized initial data set. Moreover, under an additional umbilicity assumption, we find that the initial data set isometrically embeds into a generalized pp-wave.
Speaker Intro
I am interested in geometric analysis and general relativity. More specifically, I am working on problems related to scalar curvature and geometric problems from physics. I enjoy applying the tools from PDEs, especially elliptic PDEs, to study geometry.
