We use expansion-normalised variables to investigate the Bianchi type VII$_0$ model with a tilted $\gamma$-law perfect fluid. We emphasize the late-time asymptotic dynamical behaviour of the models and determine their asymptotic states.…
We classify Riemannian surfaces admitting associated families in three dimensional homogeneous spaces with four-dimensional isometry groups and in a wide family of (semi-Riemannian) warped products, with an extra natural condition (namely,…
A class of exact spherically symmetric perturbations of retarding automodel solutions linearized around Friedman background of Einstein equations for an ideal fluid with an arbitrary barotrope value is obtained and investigated.
We study the possibility that the universe is subjected to a deformation, besides its expansion described by Friedmann's equations. The concept of smooth deformation of a riemannian manifolds associated with the extrinsic curvature is…
Space-times which allow a slicing into homogeneous spatial hypersurfaces generalize the usual Bianchi models. One knows already that in these models the Bianchi type may change with time. Here we show which of the changes really appear. To…

In this paper, solutions to the Ernst equation are investigated that depend on two real analytic functions defined on the interval [0,1]. These solutions are introduced by a suitable limiting process of Backlund transformations applied to…
We investigate the behaviour of bouncing Bianchi type IX `Mixmaster' universes in general relativity. This generalises all previous studies of the cyclic behaviour of closed spatially homogeneous universes with and without entropy increase.…
We present a spectroscopic study of the shape of the dust-extinction law between 1.0 and 2.2um towards a set of nine ultracompact HII regions with Av > 15 mag. We find some evidence that the reddening curve may tend to flatten at higher…
We analyze the dynamics of a class of $\mathbb{Z}_{2n}$-equivariant differential equations on the plane, depending on 4 real parameters. This study is the generalisation to $\mathbb{Z}_{2n}$ of previous works with $\mathbb{Z}_4$ and…
Photometric I band light curves of 21 ultra cool M and L dwarfs are presented. Variability with amplitudes of 0.01 to 0.055 magnitudes (RMS) with typical timescales of an hour to several hours are discovered in half of these objects.…
We consider the dynamics towards the initial singularity of Bianchi type IX vacuum and orthogonal perfect fluid models with a linear equation of state. The `Bianchi type IX attractor theorem' states that the past asymptotic behavior of…
Bianchi cosmologies are ``natural'' anisotropic extensions of the Friedmann universes and they have long been used to investigate the cosmological implications of anisotropy. The latter introduces new ingredients to the standard scenarios,…
We consider spatially homogeneous and isotropic cosmologies with non-zero torsion. Given the high symmetry of these universes, we adopt a specific form for the torsion tensor that preserves the homogeneity and isotropy of the spatial…

An LRS Bianchi I model is considered with constant deceleration parameter, $q=\alpha-1$, where $\alpha\geq0$ is a constant. The physical and kinematical behaviour of the models for $\alpha=0$ and $\alpha\neq0$ is studied in detail. The…
