A classical problem in general relativity is the Cauchy problem for the linearised Einstein equation (the initial value problem for gravitational waves) on a globally hyperbolic vacuum spacetime. A well-known result is that it is uniquely…
This article, written to appear as a chapter in "The Springer Handbook of Spacetime", is a review of the initial value problem for Einstein's gravitational field theory in general relativity. Designed to be accessible to graduate students…
We give a new proof of the global stability of Minkowski space originally established in the vacuum case by Christodoulou and Klainerman. The new approach shows that the Einstein-vacuum and the Einstein-scalar field equations with general…
In this manuscript, we put forth a general scheme for defining initial value problems from Einstein's equations of General Relativity constrained by homogeneous and isotropic expansion. The cosmological models arising as solutions are…
This paper contributes to the study of large data problems for $C^1$ solutions of the relativistic Euler equations. In the $(1+1)$-dimensional spacetime setting, if the initial data are away from vacuum, a key difficulty in proving the…
In this paper, we consider the 1D compressible Euler equation with the damping coefficient $\lambda/(1+t)^{\mu}$. Under the assumption that $0\leq \mu <1$ and $\lambda >0$ or $\mu=1$ and $\lambda > 2$, we prove that solutions exist globally…
We study the global existence of solutions to the Cauchy problem for the two-dimensional fully parabolic Keller--Segel system at the critical mass. It is known that global-in-time existence holds for initial data with critical mass under…

We apply a new method with explicit solution operators to construct asymptotically flat initial data sets of the vacuum Einstein equation with new localization properties. Applications include an improvement of the decay rate in…
In this paper we study the Einstein-Boltzmann system with Bianchi I symmetry. Isotropization of Bianchi I spacetimes was proved in [13] in the Vlasov case, and asymptotic behaviour of the relativistic Boltzmann equation was studied in [9]…
As a continuation of our series works on the Boltzmann equation without angular cutoff assumption, in this part, the global existence of solution to the Cauchy problem in the whole space is proved in some suitable weighted Sobolev spaces…
The objective of this second part of the work is to present heuristic derivations of the three classical tests of general relativity. These derivations are based on the Einstein equivalence principle and use Newtonian physics as a…
A choice of first-order variables for the characteristic problem of the linearized Einstein equations is found which casts the system into manifestly well-posed form. The concept of well-posedness for characteristic problems invoked is that…
This paper is concerned with an initial-boundary value problem of the two-dimensional inhomogeneous primitive equations with density-dependent viscosity. The global well-posedness of strong solutions is established, provided the initial…
We prove global existence for solutions arising from small initial data for a large class of quasilinear wave equations satisfying the `weak null condition' of Lindblad and Rodnianski, significantly enlarging upon the class of equations for…

In this paper we develop a new approach to the gluing problem in General Relativity, that is, the problem of matching two solutions of the Einstein equations along a spacelike or characteristic (null) hypersurface. In contrast to the…
We obtain finite-time existence for the massless Boltzmann equation, with a range of soft cross-sections, in an FLRW background with data given at the initial singularity. In the case of positive cosmological constant we obtain long-time…
We address the global existence of solutions to the stochastic Navier-Stokes equations with multiplicative noise and with initial data in $H^{1/2}(\mathbb{T}^{3})$. We prove that the solution exists globally in time with probability…
In this paper, we prove the global nonlinear stability of Minkowski space in the context of the spacelike-characteristic Cauchy problem for Einstein vacuum equations. Spacelike-characteristic initial data are posed on a compact 3-disk and…
