In a previous paper two of the authors (G. R. and A. D. R.) showed that there exist global, classical solutions of the spherically symmetric Vlasov-Einstein system for small initial data. The present paper continues this investigation and…
We extend Dain's construction of a geometric invariant characterising static initial data sets for the vacuum Einstein field equations to situations with a non-vanishing extrinsic curvature. This invariant gives a measure of how much the…
It is well-known that considerations of symmetry lead to the definition of a host of conserved quantities (energy, linear momentum, center of mass, etc.) for an asymptotically flat initial data set, and a great deal of progress in…
