Abstract

We study the asymptotic behaviour of the Bianchi type VI0_0 universes with a tilted γ\gamma-law perfect fluid. The late-time attractors are found for the full 7-dimensional state space and for several interesting invariant subspaces. In particular, it is found that for the particular value of the equation of state parameter, γ=6/5\gamma=6/5, there exists a bifurcation line which signals a transition of stability between a non-tilted equilibrium point to an extremely tilted equilibrium point. The initial singular regime is also discussed and we argue that the initial behaviour is chaotic for γ<2\gamma<2.
