A numerical study of the evolution of a massless scalar field in the background of rotating black holes is presented. First, solutions to the wave equation are obtained for slowly rotating black holes. In this approximation, the background…
We evolve the binary black hole initial data family proposed by Bishop {\em et al.} in the limit in which the black holes are close to each other. We present an exact solution of the linearized initial value problem based on their proposal…

Hyperboloidal slices are spacelike slices that reach future null infinity. Their asymptotic behaviour is different from Cauchy slices, which are traditionally used in numerical relativity simulations. This work uses free evolution of the…
Solving the 4-d Einstein equations as evolution in time requires solving equations of two types: the four elliptic initial data (constraint) equations, followed by the six second order evolution equations. Analytically the constraint…
In the Cauchy problem of general relativity one considers initial data that satisfies certain constraints. The evolution equations guarantee that the evolved variables will satisfy the constraints at later instants of time. This is only…
We investigate the evolution of geometric invariants, as defined by Michel \cite{Michel}, in the context of asymptotically hyperboloidal initial data sets. Our focus lies on the charges of energy and linear momentum, and we study their…

New equations are derived which describe the evolution in curved spacetime of null geodesics with non-zero (complex) shear $\sigma$ and twist $\omega$ rates resembling Grishchuk's squeezed states evolution equations from inflationary…
Andersson and Chru\'sciel showed that generic asymptotically hyperboloidal initial data sets admit polyhomogeneous expansions, and that only a non-generic subclass of solutions of the conformal constraint equations is free of logarithmic…
The discussion is limited to first-class parametrized systems, where the definition of time evolution and observables is not trivial, and to finite dimensional systems in order that technicalities do not obscure the conceptual framework.…
We introduce a model for the real-time evolution of a relativistic fluid of quarks coupled to non-equilibrium dynamics of the long wavelength (classical) modes of the chiral condensate. We solve the equations of motion numerically in 3+1…
Density perturbations and their dynamic evolution from early to late times can be used for an improved understanding of interesting physical phenomena both in cosmology and in the context of heavy-ion collisions. We discuss the spectrum and…

The two most common initial data for vacuum axisymmetric spacetimes are the Brill and Teukolsky gravitational waves. The subsequent numerical evolution of these data exhibits distinct properties mainly associated with the critical…
