Solving the 4-d Einstein equations as evolution in time requires solving equations of two types: the four elliptic initial data (constraint) equations, followed by the six second order evolution equations. Analytically the constraint…

A method is introduced for solving Einstein's equations using two distinct coordinate systems. The coordinate basis vectors associated with one system are used to project out components of the metric and other fields, in analogy with the…

Assuming conformally flat metric we obtain inhomogeneous solutions of Einstein equations with the energy-momentum of a viscous fluid. We suggest that the viscous solution can be applied as a model of an expanding inhomogeneous dark energy.

We present a new formulation of the Einstein equations that casts them in an explicitly first order, flux-conservative, hyperbolic form. We show that this now can be done for a wide class of time slicing conditions, including maximal…
