We investigate the evolution of geometric invariants, as defined by Michel \cite{Michel}, in the context of asymptotically hyperboloidal initial data sets. Our focus lies on the charges of energy and linear momentum, and we study their…

This paper is the continuation of a study into the information paradox problem started by the author in his earlier works. As previously, the key instrument is a deformed density matrix in quantum mechanics of the early universe. It is…
We show how to reduce the general formulation of the mass-angular momentum inequality, for axisymmetric initial data of the Einstein equations, to the known maximal case whenever a geometrically motivated system of equations admits a…
We prove Hawking's singularity theorem for spacetime metrics of local Lipschitz regularity. The proof rests on (1) new estimates for the Ricci curvature of regularising smooth metrics that are based upon a quite general Friedrichs-type…
It is possible to find initial states for gravitational collapse whose entropy approximately saturates the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of the final black hole. The prototypical example of such a state is that envisaged by Zurek and Thorne,…
Motivated by the conjectured Penrose inequality and by the work of Hawking, Geroch, Huisken and Ilmanen in the null and the Riemannian case, we examine necessary conditions on flows of two-surfaces in spacetime under which the Hawking…
We generalize Bowen-York black hole initial data to hyperboloidal constant mean curvature slices which extend to future null infinity. We solve this initial value problem numerically for several cases, including unequal mass binary black…
We study the Cauchy problem for the Whitham modulation equations for monotone increasing smooth initial data. The Whitham equations are a collection of one-dimensional quasi-linear hyperbolic systems. This collection of systems is…

In this paper, we study diagonal hyperbolic systems in one space dimension. Based on a new gradient entropy estimate, we prove the global existence of a continuous solution, for large and non-decreasing initial data. We remark that these…
We numerically construct an one-parameter family of initial data of an expanding inhomogeneous universe model which is composed of regularly aligned black holes with an identical mass. They are initial data for vacuum solutions of the…
Hawking evaporation of primordial black holes (PBH) with masses ranging from $\sim 10^{-1}$ to $\sim 10^9$ g can generate the whole observed dark matter (DM) relic density. However, a second DM production mechanism, like freeze-out or…
We consider the initial data problem for several black holes in vacuum with arbitrary momenta and spins on a three space with punctures. We compactify the internal asymptotically flat regions to obtain a computational domain without inner…
In this paper we prove the Penrose inequality for metrics that are small perturbations of the Schwarzschild anti-de Sitter metrics of positive mass. We use the existence of a global foliation by weakly stable constant mean curvature spheres…
We consider the Einstein-Maxwell system as a Cauchy initial value problem taking the electric and magnetic fields as independent variables. Maxwell's equations in curved spacetimes are derived in detail using a 3+1 formalism and their…
In this paper, we consider the Cauchy problem for pressureless gases in two space dimensions with generic smooth initial data (density and velocity). These equations give rise to singular curves, where the mass has positive density…
By employing the Bianchi identities for the Riemann tensor in conjunction with the Einstein equations, we construct a first order symmetric hyperbolic system for the evolution part of the Cauchy problem of general relativity. In this…

This brief note presents standard computations of primordial black hole mass $M$ given perturbations of scale $k$, and their late-time abundance $\Omega_\text{PBH}$ given their initial density fraction $\beta$. I recap the assumptions made…
