We extend the study of the vacuum Einstein constraint equations on manifolds with ends of cylindrical type initiated by Chru\'sciel and Mazzeo by finding a class of solutions to the fully coupled system on such manifolds. We show that given…
The tetrad-based equations for vacuum gravity published by Estabrook, Robinson, and Wahlquist are simplified and adapted for numerical relativity. We show that the evolution equations as partial differential equations for the Ricci rotation…

It was shown by Weyl that the general static axisymmetric solution of the vacuum Einstein equations in four dimensions is given in terms of a single axisymmetric solution of the Laplace equation in three-dimensional flat space. Weyl's…

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…
We formulate an initial boundary value problem (IBVP) for the vacuum Einstein equations by describing the boundary conditions of a spacetime metric in its associated gauge. This gauge is determined, equivariantly with respect to…

For compact hyperbolic 3-manifolds we lift the Bloch invariant defined by Neumann and Yang to an integral class in K_3(C) Applying the Borel and the Bloch regulators, one gets back the volume and the Chern-Simons invariant of the manifold.…

This letter describes a novel derivation of general relativity by considering the (non)self-consistency of theories whose Hamiltonians are constraints. The constraints, from Hamilton's equations, generate the evolution, while the evolution,…
