We report on the cited papers refs. 1 - 18 from the following points of view: What do we exactly know about solutions when no exact solution (in the sense of "solution in closed form") is available? In which sense do these solutions possess…
The configuration space of general relativity is superspace - the space of all Riemannian 3-metrics modulo diffeomorphisms. However, it has been argued that the configuration space for gravity should be conformal superspace - the space of…
We present a survey of the known cosmological and black hole solutions in ghost-free bigravity and massive gravity theories. These can be divided into three classes. First, there are solutions with proportional metrics, which are the same…
