We propose a re-formulation of the Einstein evolution equations that cleanly separates the conformal degrees of freedom and the non-conformal degrees of freedom with the latter satisfying a first order strongly hyperbolic system. The…

We consider eigenvalue problems for elliptic operators of arbitrary order $2m$ subject to Neumann boundary conditions on bounded domains of the Euclidean $N$-dimensional space. We study the dependence of the eigenvalues upon variations of…

We cast the non--isentropic relativistic Euler system into a symmetric hyperbolic form. Such systems are very suited to treat initial value problems of hyperbolic type. We obtain this form by using the pressure $p$ and not the density…

We study a Neumann type initial-boundary value problem for strongly degenerate parabolic-hyperbolic equations under the nonlinearity-diffusivity condition. We suggest a notion of entropy solution for this problem and prove its uniqueness.…

We obtain a new exact equilibrium solution to the N-body problem in a one-dimensional relativistic self-gravitating system. It corresponds to an expanding/contracting spacetime of a circle with N bodies at equal proper separations from one…
