We propose further conformal parametrizations for initial data in some modified Einstein gravity theories. Some of them give rise to conformally covariant systems.

This lecture is devoted to the problem of computing initial data for the Cauchy problem of 3+1 general relativity. The main task is to solve the constraint equations. The conformal technique, introduced by Lichnerowicz and enhanced by York,…

We apply the conformal method to solve the initial value formulation of general relativity to the $\lambda$-R model, a minimal, anisotropic modification of general relativity with a preferred foliation and two local degrees of freedom. We…

The only efficient and robust method of generating consistent initial data in general relativity is the conformal technique initiated by Lichnerowicz and perfected by York. In the spatially compact case, the complete scheme consists of the…

This work investigates a dynamical system functioning as a nonsmooth adaptation of the continuous Newton method, aimed at minimizing the sum of a primal lower-regular and a locally Lipschitz function, both potentially nonsmooth. The…

We suppose that a L\'evy process is observed at discrete time points. Starting from an asymptotically minimax family of estimators for the continuous part of the L\'evy Khinchine characteristics, i.e., the covariance, we derive a…

The conformal method is a technique for finding Cauchy data in general relativity solving the Einstein constraint equations, and its parameters include a conformal class, a conformal momentum (as measured by a densitized lapse), and a mean…

We derive, in 3+1 spacetime dimensions, two alternative systems of quasi-linear wave equations, based on Friedrich's conformal field equations. We analyse their equivalence to Einstein's vacuum field equations when appropriate constraint…

A generalization of the Bowen-York initial data to the case with a positive cosmological constant is investigated. We follow the construction presented recently by Bizo\'n, Pletka and Simon, and solve numerically the Lichnerowicz equation…

We solve the Einstein constraint equations for a first-order causal viscous relativistic hydrodynamic theory in the case of a conformal fluid. For such a theory, a direct application of the conformal method does not lead to a decoupling of…

This paper revisits the classical construction of initial data using the conformal method, as originally proposed by Holst, Nagy, and Tsogtgerel and later refined by Maxwell. We demonstrate that the existence of the solution can be proven…

We study the peculiar motion of non-relativistic matter in a fully covariant way. The exact nonlinear equations are derived and then applied to the case of pressure-free matter, moving relatively to a quasi-Newtonian Eulerian frame. Our…

A class of vacuum initial-data sets is described which are based on certain expressions for the extrinsic curvature first studied and employed by Bowen and York. These expressions play a role for the momentum constraint of general…

In system identification, estimating parameters of a model using limited observations results in poor identifiability. To cope with this issue, we propose a new method to simultaneously select and estimate sensitive parameters as key model…

We develop a method that relates the truncated cumulant-function of the fourth order with the L\'evian cumulant-function. This gives us explicit formulas for the L\'evy-parameters, which allow a real-time analysis of the state of a…
