We prove the spacetime positive mass theorem in dimensions less than eight. This theorem asserts that for any asymptotically flat initial data set that satisfies the dominant energy condition, the inequality E>=|P| holds, where (E, P) is the ADM energy-momentum vector. Previously, this theorem was only known for spin manifolds [38]. Our approach is a modification of the minimal hypersurface technique that was used by the last named author and S.-T. Yau to establish the time-symmetric case of this theorem [30, 27]. Instead of minimal hypersurfaces, we use marginally outer trapped hypersurfaces (MOTS) whose existence is guaranteed by earlier work of the first named author [14]. An important part of our proof is to introduce an appropriate substitute for the area functional that is used in the time-symmetric case to single out certain minimal hypersurfaces. We also establish a density theorem of independent interest and use it to reduce the general case of the spacetime positive mass theorem to the special case of initial data that has harmonic asymptotics and satisfies the strict dominant energy condition.

We study the algebraic dimension a(X) of a compact hyperk ¨ahler manifold of dimension 2n. We show that a(X) is at most n unless X is projective. If a compact K¨ahler manifold with algebraic dimension 0 and Kodaira dimension 0 has a minimal model, then only the values 0, n and 2n are possible. In case of middle dimension, the algebraic reduction is holomorphic Lagrangian. If n = 2, then - without any assumptions - the algebraic dimension only takes the values 0, 2 and 4. The paper also gives structure results for ”generalised hyperk¨ahler” manifolds and studies nef lines bundles.

We develop a Floer theoretical gluing technique and apply it to deal with the most generic singular ber in the SYZ program, namely the product of a torus with the immersed two-sphere with a single nodal self-intersection. As an application, we construct immersed Lagrangians in Gr(2;Cn) and OG(1;C5) and derive their SYZ mirrors. It recovers the Lie theoretical mirrors constructed by Rietsch. It also gives an eective way to compute stable disks (with non-trivial obstructions) bounded by immersed Lagrangians.

We prove pinching estimates for dual flows provided the curvature function used in the inverse flow in de Sitter space is convex.

Existence and uniqueness of the solution to the Lp Minkowski problem for the electrostatic p-capacity are proved when p > 1 and 1 < p < n. These results are nonlinear extensions of the very recent solution to the Lp Minkowski problem for p-capacity when p = 1 and 1 < p < n by Colesanti et al. and Akman et al., and the classical solution to the Minkowski problem for electrostatic capacity when p = 1 and p = 2 by Jerison.
