We show by explicit construction that for every solution of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equation in $p+1$ dimensions, there is a uniquely associated "dual" solution of the vacuum Einstein equations in $p+2$ dimensions. The dual…
A covariant causal set (c-causet) is a causal set that is invariant under labeling. Such causets are well-behaved and have a rigid geometry that is determined by a sequence of positive integers called the shell sequence. We first consider…
We consider dynamics of massless particle in 2d spacetimes with constant curvature. We analyze different examples of spacetime. Dynamical integrals are constructed from spacetime symmetry related to $sl(2.{\bf R})$ algebra. Mass-shell…

We give a model of the higher-dimensional spherically symmetric gravitational collapse of a dust cloud in Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity. A simple formulation of the basic equations is given for the spacetime $M \approx M^2 \times K^{n-2}$…
We consider the spherically symmetric, asymptotically flat, non-vacuum Einstein equations, using as matter model a collisionless gas as described by the Vlasov equation. We find explicit conditions on the initial data which guarantee the…

We prove that, for a given spherically symmetric fluid distribution with tangential pressure on an initial spacelike hypersurface with a timelike boundary, there exists a unique, local in time solution to the Einstein equations in a…
This article is a guide to theorems on existence and global dynamics of solutions of the Einstein equations. It draws attention to open questions in the field. The local-in-time Cauchy problem, which is relatively well understood, is…

In the spacetime of horizonless compact objects described by Einsteinian cubic gravity (ECG), we demonstrate the existence of static stable timelike circular orbits on which massive particles remain at rest relative to distant observers.…
Estimating collision rates is of immense importance in particle-laden flows. An economical way of doing this is to directly identify incidences of caustics, or extreme clustering, by tracking particle velocity gradients in the neighborhoods…
We prove a continuation condition in the context of 3+1 dimensional vacuum Einstein gravity in Constant Mean extrinsic Curvature (CMC) gauge. More precisely, we obtain quantitative criteria under which the physical spacetime can be extended…
The main result of this paper is a proof that there are examples of spatially compact solutions of the Einstein-dust equations which only exist for an arbitrarily small amount of CMC time. While this fact is plausible, it is not trivial to…
We present a mathematical framework for generating thick domain wall solutions to the coupled Einstein-scalar field equations which are (locally) plane symmetric. This approach leads naturally to two broad classes of wall-like solutions.…
