The strong interplay between Bianchi--Kantowski--Sachs (BKS) spacetimes and Thurston geometries motivates the exploration of the role of topology in our understanding of gravity. As such, we study non-tilted BKS solutions of a theory of…
To assess the validity of the Belinskii, Khalatnikov, and Lifshitz (BKL) approximation to Mixmaster dynamics, it would be useful to evaluate the BKL discrete parameters as a byproduct of the numerical solution of Einstein's equations. An…
By employing the Bianchi identities for the Riemann tensor in conjunction with the Einstein equations, we construct a first order symmetric hyperbolic system for the evolution part of the Cauchy problem of general relativity. In this…
Bianchi VIII vacuum solutions to Einstein's equations are causally geodesically complete to the future, given an appropriate time orientation, and the objective of this article is to analyze the asymptotic behaviour of solutions in this…
According to standard cosmology, the universe is homogeneous and isotropic at large scales. However, some anisotropies can be observed at the local scale in the universe through various ways. Here we have studied the Bianchi type I model…
Pocket guide to Terra Incognita of the ``Planisphaerium Neutrinorum'' (http://www.ba.infn.it/~now2004/) by Eligio Lisi. Includes a survival kit for the Ue3 territory and a first-aid package for the case of maximal atmospheric mixing angle.
In this work we investigate the asymptotic behaviour of solutions to the Einstein equations with a minimally coupled scalar field. The primary focus of the present paper here establishing under what conditions a solution becomes…
We extend the induced matter model, previously applied to a variety of isotropic cases, to a generalization of Bianchi type-I anisotropic cosmologies. The induced matter model is a 5D Kaluza-Klein approach in which assumptions of…
