BSSN-type evolution equations are discussed. The name refers to the Baumgarte, Shapiro, Shibata, and Nakamura version of the Einstein evolution equations, without introducing the conformal-traceless decomposition but keeping the three…

Einstein's equations for general relativity, when viewed as a dynamical system for evolving initial data, have a serious flaw: they cannot be proven to be well-posed (except in special coordinates). That is, they do not produce unique…

It was shown recently that the constraints on the initial data for Einstein's equations may be posed as an evolutionary problem [9]. In one of the proposed two methods the constraints can be replaced by a first order symmetrizable…

Motivated by the initial-boundary value problem for the Einstein equations, we propose a definition of symmetric hyperbolicity for systems of evolution equations that are first order in time but second order in space. This can be used to…

In this paper we focus on the Cahn-Hilliard equation with dynamic boundary conditions, by adding two hyperbolic relaxation terms to the system. We verify that the energy of the total system is decreasing with time. By adding two…
