On the differentiability of Cauchy horizons
Chrusciel and Galloway constructed a Cauchy horizon that is nondifferentiable
on a dense set. We prove that in a certain class of Cauchy horizons densely
nondifferentiable Cauchy horizons are generic. We show that our class of
densely nondifferentiable Cauchy horizons implies the existence of densely
nondifferentiable Cauchy horizons arising from partial Cauchy surfaces and also
the existence of densely nondifferentiable black hole event horizons.Comment: 9 pages, LaTe
Generalized Strong Curvature Singularities and Cosmic Censorship
A new definition of a strong curvature singularity is proposed. This
definition is motivated by the definitions given by Tipler and Krolak, but is
significantly different and more general. All causal geodesics terminating at
these new singularities, which we call generalized strong curvature
singularities, are classified into three possible types; the classification is
based on certain relations between the curvature strength of the singularities
and the causal structure in their neighborhood. A cosmic censorship theorem is
formulated and proved which shows that only one class of generalized strong
curvature singularities, corresponding to a single type of geodesics according
to our classification, can be naked. Implications of this result for the cosmic
censorship hypothesis are indicated.Comment: LaTeX, 11 pages, no figures, to appear in Mod. Phys. Lett.
Applications of distance between probability distributions to gravitational wave data analysis
We present a definition of the distance between probability distributions.
Our definition is based on the norm on space of probability measures. We
compare our distance with the well-known Kullback-Leibler divergence and with
the proper distance defined using the Fisher matrix as a metric on the
parameter space. We consider using our notion of distance in several problems
in gravitational wave data analysis: to place templates in the parameter space
in searches for gravitational-wave signals, to assess quality of search
templates, and to study the signal resolution.Comment: 18 pages, 5 figure
On the dynamics for a mechanics with noncontinuous hamiltonians
.Mechanical systems with noncontinuous or numerical [11] hamiltonian are considered. The method of defining a dynamics for such mechanical systems is given
The density theorem for the actions of I.L.H.-Lie groups
.The density theorem for the action of I.L.H.-Lie group G on the I.L.H.-manifold M is proved i.e. it was shown that the stratum with trivial isotropy group is open and dense subset of M
