The integration of the Einstein equations split into the solution of constraints on an initial space like 3 - manifold, an essentially elliptic system, and a system which will describe the dynamical evolution, modulo a choice of gauge. We…

We propose a new alternative gauge for the Einstein equations instead of the de Donder gauge, which allows in the limit of weak fields a straightforward integration of these equations. The Newtonian potential plays a new interesting role in…

We show that the 3+1 vacuum Einstein field equations in Ashtekar's variables constitutes a first order symmetric hyperbolic system for arbitrary but fixed lapse and shift fields, by suitable adding to the system terms proportional to the…

We introduce a proposal to modify Einstein's equations by embedding them in a larger symmetric hyperbolic system. The additional dynamical variables of the modified system are essentially first integrals of the original constraints. The…
