In the present work, we will develop a conformal inequality in the hyperbolic foliation context which is analogous to the conformal inequality in the classical time-constant foliation context. Then as an application, we will apply this a…

We present a new general method for proving global decay of energy through a suitable spacetime foliation, as well as pointwise decay, starting from an integrated local energy decay estimate. The method is quite robust, requiring only…

Using the hyperboloidal foliation method, we establish stability results for a coupled wave-Klein-Gordon system with quadratic nonlinearities. In particular, we investigate quadratic wave-Klein-Gordon interactions in which there are no…

Let $M$ be a globally hyperbolic maximal compact $3$-dimensional spacetime locally modelled on Minkowski, anti-de Sitter or de Sitter space. It is well known that $M$ admits a unique foliation by constant mean curvature surfaces. In this…

We discuss a gauge choice which allows us to avoid the introduction of artificial timelike outer boundaries in numerical studies of test fields based on a 3+1 decomposition of asymptotically flat background spacetimes. The main idea is to…

Building on the hyperboloidal foliation approach of Lefloch and Ma, we extend Klainerman's physical-space approach to dispersive estimates to recover the frequency-restricted $L^1$--$L^\infty$ dispersive estimates for Klein-Gordon…

We study the existence of surfaces with constant or prescribed Gauss curvature in certain Lorentzian spacetimes. We prove in particular that every (non-elementary) 3-dimensional maximal globally hyperbolic spatially compact spacetime with…

We present the numerical implementation of a clean solution to the outer boundary and radiation extraction problems within the 3+1 formalism for hyperbolic partial differential equations on a given background. Our approach is based on…

We study in $\mathbb{R}^{3+1}$ a system of nonlinearly coupled Klein-Gordon equations under null condition, with (possibly vanishing) mass varying in the interval $[0, 1]$. Our goal is three folds: 1) we want to establish the global…

We consider the Einstein-Dirac system for a massive field, which describes the evolution of self-gravitating massive spinor fields, and we investigate the global evolution problem, when the initial data set is sufficiently close to data…

Four-dimensional spacetimes foliated by a two-parameter family of homologous two-surfaces are considered in Einstein's theory of gravity. By combining a 1+(1+2) decomposition, the canonical form of the spacetime metric and a suitable…

In this paper we prove the nonlinear stability of Minkowski space-time with a translation Killing field. In the presence of such a symmetry, the 3 + 1 vacuum Einstein equations reduce to the 2 + 1 Einstein equations with a scalar field. We…

In this paper, we establish the global existence of a semi-linear class of hyperbolic equations in 3+1 dimensions, that satisfy the bounded weak null condition. We propose a conformal compactification of the future directed null-cone in…

The nonlinear stability of Minkowski spacetime has been one of the central achievements in the mathematical theory of general relativity and, more broadly, in the analysis of nonlinear geometric wave equations. Since the seminal work of…
