Silent universes are studied using a ``3+1'' decomposition of the field equations in order to make progress in proving a recent conjecture that the only silent universes of Petrov type I are spatially homogeneous Bianchi I models. The…
We study non-degenerate (Petrov type I) silent universes in the presence of a non-vanishing cosmological constant L. In contrast to the L=0 case, for which the orthogonally spatially homogeneous Bianchi type I metrics most likely are the…
The consistency of the constraint with the evolution equations for spatially inhomogeneous and irrotational silent (SIIS) models of Petrov type I, demands that the former are preserved along the timelike congruence represented by the…
We discuss the problem of the stability of the isotropy of the universe in the space of ever-expanding spatially homogeneous universes with a compact spatial topology. The anisotropic modes which prevent isotropy being asymptotically stable…
After a brief overview of the so-called silent models and their present status, we consider the subclass of Bianchi Type--I models with a magnetic field source. Due to the presence of the magnetic field, the initial singularity shows…
Cosmologies of the lower Bianchi types, i.e. except those of type VIII or IX, admit a two-dimensional Abelian subgroup of the isometry group, the $G_2$. In orthogonal perfect fluid cosmologies of all lower Bianchi types except for type…
In one-loop string effective action, we study a generality of non-singular cosmological solutions found in the isotropic and homogeneous case. We discuss Bianchi I and IX type spacetimes. We find that nonsingular solutions still exist in…
A thorough classification of the topologies of compact homogeneous universes is given except for the hyperbolic spaces, and their global degrees of freedom are completely worked out. To obtain compact universes, spatial points are…
The dynamics and evolution of Bianchi type I space-times is considered in the framework of the four-dimensional truncation of a reduced theory obtained from the N=2,D=5 supergravity. The general solution of the gravitational field equations…
We consider the 4+1 Einstein's field equations (EFE's) in vacuum, simplified by the assumption that there is a four-dimensional sub-manifold on which an isometry group of dimension four acts simply transitive. In particular we consider the…
The global properties of spatially homogeneous cosmological models with collisionless matter are studied. It is shown that as long as the mean curvature of the hypersurfaces of homogeneity remains finite no singularity can occur in finite…
This paper is devoted to the study of the global existence of smooth solutions for the 3+1 dimensional Einstein-Klein-Gordon systems with a $U(1) \times \mathbb{R}$ isometry group for a class of regular Cauchy data. In our first paper…
There are investigated such cosmological models which instead of the usual spatial homogeneity property only fulfil the condition that in a certain synchronized system of reference all spacelike sections t = const. are homogeneous…
We show that small homogeneous solutions to the Einstein-Boltzmann-scalar field system exist globally towards the future and tend to the de Sitter solution in a suitable sense. More specifically, we assume that the spacetime is of Bianchi…
In this paper we present an analysis to determine the existence of singularities in spatially homogeneous anisotropic universes filled with nonlinear electromagnetic radiation. These spaces are conformal to Bianchi spaces admitting a three…
In this paper, we consider spatially homogenous and anisotropic Bianchi type I universe in the context of F(T) gravity. We construct some corresponding models using conservation equation and equation of state parameter representing…
We provide an exhaustive classification of self-dual four-dimensional gravitational instantons foliated with three-dimensional homogeneous spaces, i.e. homogeneous self-dual metrics on four-dimensional Euclidean spaces admitting a Bianchi…
We show that, in quadratic lagrangian theories of gravity, isotropic cosmological singularities are stable to the presence of small scalar, vector and tensor inhomogeneities. Unlike in general relativity, a particular exact isotropic…
We show that four-dimensional Lorentzian metrics admitting a global spacelike Lie group of isometries, $G_{1}={\mathbb R}$, which obey the Einstein equations for vacuum and certain types of matter, cannot contain apparent horizons. The…
Stability analysis of the Bianchi type I universe in pure gravity theory is studied in details. We first derive the non-redundant field equation of the system by introducing the generalized Bianchi type I metric. This non-redundant equation…
