We study the initial value problem for the Einstein-Klein-Gordon system and establish the global nonlinear stability of massive matter in the near-Minkowski regime when the initial geometry is a perturbation of an asymptotically flat, spacelike hypersurface in Minkowski spacetime and the metric enjoys the harmonic decay 1/r (in term of a suitable distance function r at spatial infinity). Our analysis encompasses matter fields that have small energy norm and solely enjoys a slow decay at spacelike infinity. Our proof is based on the Euclidean-hyperboloidal foliation method recently introduced by the authors, and distinguishes between the decay along asymptotically hyperbolic slices and the decay along asymptotically Euclidean slices. We carefully analyze the decay of metric component at the harmonic level 1/r, especially the metric component in the direction of the light cone. In presence of such a slow-decaying matter field, we establish a global existence theory for the Einstein equations expressed as a coupled system of nonlinear wave and Klein-Gordon equations.

Let $X$ be a finitistic space with the mod 2 cohomology of the product space of a projective space and a 4-sphere. Assume that $X$ admits a free involution. In this paper we study the mod 2 cohomology algebra of the quotient of $X$ by the action of the free involution and derive some consequences regarding the existence of $mathbb{Z}_2$-equivariant maps between such $X$ and an $n$-sphere.

We prove that the local version of the chain rule cannot hold for the fractional variation defined in arXiv:1809.08575. In the case $n = 1$, we prove a stronger result, exhibiting a function $f in BV^{alpha}(mathbb{R})$ such that $|f| notin BV^{alpha}(mathbb{R})$. The failure of the local chain rule is a consequence of some surprising rigidity properties for non-negative functions with bounded fractional variation which, in turn, are derived from a fractional Hardy inequality localized to half-spaces. Our approach exploits the results of arXiv:2111.13942 and the distributional approach of the previous papers arXiv:1809.08575, arXiv:1910.13419, arXiv:2011.03928, arXiv:2109.15263. As a byproduct, we refine the fractional Hardy inequality obtained in arXiv:1611.07204, arXiv:1806.07588 and we prove a fractional version of the closely related Meyers-Ziemer trace inequality.

We show that prime Fano threefolds $Y$ of genus 8 have a multiplicative Chow–Künneth decomposition, in the sense of Shen–Vial. As a consequence, a certain tautological subring of the Chow ring of powers of $Y$ injects into cohomology.
