We prove that analytic initial data on a light cone arising from a metric satisfying a "near-roundness" condition near the vertex lead to a solution of the vacuum Einstein equations to the future of the light-cone.
We study the Lie point symmetries of Einstein's equations for the Friedmann-Roberstson-Walker Cosmology. They form either a two - dimensional or a three - dimensional solvable group depending on the form of the self interacting potential.…
In this paper we will extend the notion of tangent bundle to a $\z$ graded tangent bundle. This graded bundle has a Lie algebroid structure and we can develop notions semi-riemannian metrics, Levi-civita connection, and curvature, on it. In…
With the arrival of the era of gravitational wave astronomy, the strong gravitational field regime will be explored soon in various aspects. In this article, we provide a general review over cylindrical systems in Einstein's theory of…

We introduce a new symmetry, Light-Cone Reflection (LCR), which interchanges timelike and spacelike intervals. Our motivation is to provide a reason, based on symmetry, why tachyons might exist, with emphasis on application to neutrinos. We…

According to the theory of unimodular relativity developed by Anderson and Finkelstein, the equations of general relativity with a cosmological constant are composed of two independent equations, one which determines the null-cone structure…
The modelling of light-like signals in General Relativity taking the form of impulsive gravitational waves and light-like shells of matter is examined. Systematic deductions from the Bianchi identities are made. These are based upon…

In many cases a scalar field can lead to accelerated expansion in cosmological models. This paper contains mathematical results on this subject particularly on type I Bianchi space-time. In this paper, global existence to the coupled…
We present a theoretical formalism to predict the two-point clustering statistics (the power spectrum and the two-point correlation function), simultaneously taking account of the linear velocity distortion, the nonlinear velocity…
In this paper, starting from the common foundation of Connes' noncommutative geometry (NCG) [1,2,3,4], various possible alternatives in the formulation of a theory of gravity in noncommutative spacetime are discussed in detail. The…
