We prove that any metric of non-positive curvature in the sense of Alexandrov on a compact surface can be isometrically embedded as a convex spacelike Cauchy surface in a flat spacetime of dimension (2+1). The proof follows from polyhedral…

We study first-order symmetrizable hyperbolic $N\times N$ systems in a spacetime cylinder whose lateral boundary is totally characteristic. In local coordinates near the boundary at $x=0$, these systems take the form \[ \partial_t u +…

The asymptotic behavior of geometry near the boundary of maximal Cauchy development is studied using a perturbative method, which at the zeroth order reduces Einstein's equations to an exactly solvable set of equations---Einstein's…

All three-manifolds are known to occur as Cauchy surfaces of asymptotically flat vacuum spacetimes and of spacetimes with positive-energy sources. We prove here the conjecture that general relativity does not allow an observer to probe the…

In this paper, we investigate the asymptotic behavior of regular ends of flat surfaces in the hyperbolic 3-space H^3. Galvez, Martinez and Milan showed that when the singular set does not accumulate at an end, the end is asymptotic to a…
