We consider the Cauchy problem for the equations of pressureless gases in two space dimensions. For a generic set of smooth initial data (density and velocity), it is known that the solution loses regularity at a finite time $t_0$, where…

We study curved isotropic cosmologies filled with two interacting fluids near their time singularities. We find that a number of these universes asymptote to flat limits in the sense that their asymptotic properties become indistinguishable…

We show that the asymptotic charges associated with Lorentz symmetries on past and future null infinity match in the limit to spatial infinity in a class of asymptotically-flat spacetimes. These are spacetimes that obey the Ashtekar-Hansen…
