This article is a guide to theorems on existence and global dynamics of solutions of the Einstein equations. It draws attention to open questions in the field. The local-in-time Cauchy problem, which is relatively well understood, is…
We present an explicit exact solution of Einstein's equations for an inhomogeneous dust universe with cylindrical symmetry. The spacetime is extremely simple but nonetheless it has new surprising features. The universe is ``closed'' in the…
The four-dimensional Friedman flat universe, filled with an ideal fluid with a linear (oscillating) inhomogeneous equation of state (EoS) depending on time, is studied. The equations of motion are solved. It is shown that in some cases…
We point out that, due to the nonlinearity of the Einstein equations, a homogeneous approximation in cosmology leads to the appearance of an additional term in the Friedmann equation. This new term is associated with the spatial…
A nonstatic and circularly symmetric exact solution of the Einstein equations (with a cosmological constant $\Lambda$ and null fluid) in $2+1$ dimensions is given. This is a nonstatic generalization of the uncharged spinless BTZ metric. For…
We construct a large class of new singularity-free static Lorentzian four-dimensional solutions of the vacuum Einstein equations with a negative cosmological constant. The new families of metrics contain space-times with, or without, black…
We study the quantization of geometry in the presence of a cosmological constant, using a discretiza- tion with constant-curvature simplices. Phase space turns out to be compact and the Hilbert space finite dimensional for each link. Not…

The dynamics of a class of cosmological models with collisionless matter and four Killing vectors is studied in detail and compared with that of corresponding perfect fluid models. In many cases it is possible to identify asymptotic states…

We discuss the stability of the higher-dimensional de Sitter (dS) brane solutions with two-dimensional internal space in the Einstein-Maxwel theory. We show that an instability appears in the scalar-type perturbations with respect to the dS…
A mathematically interesting hyperbolic solution to the Einstein field equations is studied on an eight-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian manifold $\mathbb{X}_{4,4}$ that is a spacetime of four space dimensions and four time dimensions. [The…
We prove a theorem that characterizes a large family of non-static solutions to Einstein equations in $N$-dimensional space-time, representing, in general, spherically symmetric Type II fluid. It is shown that the best known Vaidya-based…
In this paper we study cosmological solutions to the Einstein--Euler equations. We first establish the future stability of nonlinear perturbations of a class of homogeneous solutions to the relativistic Euler equations on fixed linearly…
We find the general behaviour of homogeneous and isotropic cosmological models in some fourth-order theories of gravity. Explicit, exact, general solutions are given for both empty universes and those filled with a perfect fluid. For the…
This paper presents finite-time and fixed-time stabilization results for inhomogeneous abstract evolution problems, extending existing theories. We prove well-posedness for strong and weak solutions, and estimate upper bounds for settling…
Astronomical observations reveal hierarchical structures in the Universe, from galaxies, groups of galaxies, clusters and superclusters, to filaments and voids. On the largest scales it seems that some kind of statistical homogeneity can be…
In order to investigate the effect of inhomogeneities on the volume expansion of the universe, we study modified Swiss-Cheese universe model. Since this model is an exact solution of Einstein equations, we can get an insight into non-linear…
