We introduce novel Einstein spaces which are the {\it stationary analogs of de Sitter and ani-de Sitter} spacetimes. Having $\Lambda$ as their only parameter, the inherent anisotropy in these solutions appears as a dilemma if we treat the…

We obtain D=6, N=(1,1) de Sitter supergravity from a hyperbolic reduction of the massive type IIA* theory. We construct a smooth cosmological solution in which the co-moving time runs from an infinite past, which is dS_4\times S^2, to an…
Recent data on supernovae favor high values of the cosmological constant. Spacetimes with a cosmological constant have non-relativistic kinematics quite different from Galilean kinematics. De Sitter spacetimes, vacuum solutions of…
