We review recent mathematical results concerning the high-frequency solutions to the Einstein vacuum equations and the limits of these solutions. In particular, we focus on two conjectures of Burnett, which attempt to give an exact…
In this paper we study the global existence and completeness of classical solutions of gravity coupled a scalar field system called Einstein-Klein-Gordon system in higher dimensions. We introduce a new ansatz function to reduce the problem…
We show that stationary, asymptotically flat solutions of the electro-vacuum Einstein equations are analytic at $i^0$, for a large family of gauges, in odd space-time dimensions higher than seven. The same is true in space-time dimension…
The main result of this paper is that the space of conformally compact Einstein metrics on a given manifold is a smooth, infinite dimensional Banach manifold, provided it is non-empty, generalizing earlier work of Graham-Lee and Biquard. We…
It seems to be not well known that the metrics of general relativity (GR) can be obtained without integrating Einstein equations. To that, we need only define a unit for GR-interval $\Delta s$, and observe 10 geodesics (out of which at…
The problem of deforming geometries is particularly important in the context of constructing new exact solutions of Einstein's equation. This issue often appears when extensions of the general relativity are treated, for instance in brane…
In this article, we give nonexistence and nonuniqueness results for the vacuum Einstein conformal constraint equations in the far-from-CMC case and also show that in some cases the equations of the conformal method for positive Yamabe…
All non-twisting Petrov-type N solutions of vacuum Einstein field equations with cosmological constant Lambda are summarized. They are shown to belong either to the non-expanding Kundt class or to the expanding Robinson-Trautman class.…
In the standard Einstein's theory the exterior gravitational field of any static and axially symmetric stellar object can be described by means of a single function from which we obtain a metric into a four-dimensional space-time. In this…
We give a formulation of the vacuum Einstein equations in terms of a set of volume-preserving vector fields on a four-manifold ${\cal M}$. These vectors satisfy a set of equations which are a generalisation of the Yang-Mills equations for a…
It is well-known that static vacuum solutions of Einstein equations are analytic in suitable coordinates. We ask here for an extension of this result in the context of Finsler gravity. We consider Finsler spacetimes that retain several…
We study the exact solution of Einstein's field equations consisting of a ($n+2$)-dimensional static and hyperplane symmetric thick slice of matter, with constant and positive energy density $\rho$ and thickness $d$, surrounded by two…
A new solution of Einstein's vacuum field equations is discovered which appears as a generalization of the well-known Ozsvath-Schucking solution and explains its source of curvature which has otherwise remained hidden. Curiously, the new…
In this thesis we consider several aspects of general relativity relating to exact solutions of the Einstein equations. In the first part gravitational plane waves in the Rosen form are investigated, and we develop a formalism for writing…
In this paper, the metric approach of $f(R)$ theory of gravity is used to investigate the exact vacuum solutions of spatially homogeneous rotating spacetimes. For this purpose, R is replaced by f(R) in the standard Einstein-Hilbert action…
We obtain an approximate global stationary and axisymmetric solution of Einstein's equations which can be considered as a simple star model: a self-gravitating perfect fluid ball with constant mass density rotating in rigid motion. Using…
We prove existence of vacuum space-times with freely prescribable cone-smooth initial data on past null infinity.
We consider $d$-dimensional static spacetimes in Einstein gravity with a cosmological constant in the presence of a minimally coupled massless scalar field. The spacetimes have a $(d-2)$-dimensional base manifold given by an Einstein space…
We show that the recent work of Lee [23] implies existence of a large class of new singularity-free strictly static Lorentzian vacuum solutions of the Einstein equations with a negative cosmological constant. This holds in all space-time…
