We make use of the metric version of the conformal Einstein field equations to construct anti-de Sitter-like spacetimes by means of a suitably posed initial-boundary value problem. The evolution system associated to this initial-boundary…

In the mathematical physics literature, there are heuristic arguments, going back three decades, suggesting that for an open set of initially smooth solutions to the Einstein-vacuum equations in high dimensions, stable, approximately…

In this paper, we give a new proof to a past stability result established in Fournodavlos-Rodnianski-Speck (arXiv:2012.05888), for Kasner solutions of the $(3+1)$-dimensional Einstein vacuum equations under polarized $U(1)$-symmetry. Our…

Given asymptotically flat initial data on M^3 for the vacuum Einstein field equation, and given a bounded domain in M, we construct solutions of the vacuum constraint equations which agree with the original data inside the given domain, and…

The Strong Cosmic Censorship conjecture states that for generic initial data to Einstein's field equations, the maximal globally hyperbolic development is inextendible. We prove this conjecture in the class of orthogonal Bianchi class B…

In spacetime dimensions $n+1\geq 4$, we show the existence of solutions of the Einstein vacuum equations which describe asymptotically de Sitter spacetimes with prescribed smooth data at the conformal boundary. This provides a short…

This is the second part of our result on a class of global characteristic problems for the Einstein vacuum equations with small initial data. In the previous work denoted by (I), our attention was focused on prescribing the initial data…

This is the second paper of a two part work that establishes a definitive quantitative nonlinear scattering theory for asymptotically de Sitter vacuum solutions $(M,g)$ in $(n+1)$ dimensions with $n\geq4$ even, which are determined by small…

We present a characterization of the asymptotics of all asymptotically flat stationary vacuum solutions of Einstein's field equations. This characterization is given in terms of two sequences of symmetric trace free tensors (we call them…
