We construct asymptotically Euclidean solutions of the vacuum Einstein constraint equations with an apparent horizon boundary condition. Specifically, we give sufficient conditions for the constant mean curvature conformal method to…

We construct solutions of the constraint equation with non constant mean curvature on an asymptotically hyperbolic manifold by the conformal method. Our approach consists in decreasing a certain exponent appearing in the equations,…

This article is dedicated to solving the Einstein constraint equations with apparent horizon boundaries and freely specified mean curvature. The main novelty is that we study the conformal constraint equations assuming only low regularity.

We construct low regularity solutions of the vacuum Einstein constraint equations on compact manifolds. On 3-manifolds we obtain solutions with metrics in $H^s$ where $s>3/2$. The constant mean curvature (CMC) conformal method leads to a…

In this dissertation, we prove a number of results regarding the conformal method of finding solutions to the Einstein constraint equations. These results include necessary and sufficient conditions for the Lichnerowicz equation to have…

In this article we continue our effort to do a systematic development of the solution theory for conformal formulations of the Einstein constraint equations on compact manifolds with boundary. By building in a natural way on our recent work…

In this short note, we give a construction of solutions to the Einstein constraint equations using the well known conformal method. Our method gives a result similar to the one in [15, 16, 24], namely existence when the so called TT-tensor…

We find new classes of exact solutions of the initial momentum constraint for vacuum Einstein's equations. Considered data are either invariant under a continuous symmetry or they are assumed to have the exterior curvature tensor of a…

We establish a general gluing theorem for constant mean curvature solutions of the vacuum Einstein constraint equations. This allows one to take connected sums of solutions or to glue a handle (wormhole) onto any given solution. Away from…

It is well-known that solutions to the conformal formulation of the Einstein constraint equations are unique in the cases of constant mean curvature (CMC) and near constant mean curvature (near-CMC). However, the new far-from-constant mean…

Let $(M,g)$ be a compact Riemannian manifold on which a trace-free and divergence-free $\sigma \in W^{1,p}$ and a positive function $\tau \in W^{1,p}$, $p > n$, are fixed. In this paper, we study the vacuum Einstein constraint equations…

We study the constraint equations for the Einstein-scalar field system on compact manifolds. Using the conformal method we reformulate these equations as a determined system of nonlinear partial differential equations. By introducing a new…

In this article we develop some new existence results for the Einstein constraint equations using the Lichnerowicz-York conformal rescaling method. The mean extrinsic curvature is taken to be an arbitrary smooth function without…

Numerical solutions to the Einstein constraint equations are constructed on a selection of compact orientable three-dimensional manifolds with non-trivial topologies. A simple constant mean curvature solution and a somewhat more complicated…

We prove the existence of a large class of initial data for the vacuum Einstein equations which possess a finite number of asymptotically Euclidean and asymptotically conformally cylindrical or periodic ends. Aside from being asymptotically…

In this note we prove two existence theorems for the Einstein constraint equations on asymptotically Euclidean manifolds. The first is for arbitrary mean curvature functions with restrictions on the size of the transverse-traceless data and…

We consider the conformal decomposition of Einstein's constraint equations introduced by Lichnerowicz and York, on a compact manifold with boundary. We use order relations on appropriate Banach spaces to derive weak solution generalizations…

We prove that there are no restrictions on the spatial topology of asymptotically flat solutions of the vacuum Einstein equations in (n+1)-dimensions. We do this by gluing a solution of the vacuum constraint equations on an arbitrary…

We consider the conformal decomposition of Einstein's constraint equations introduced by Lichnerowicz and York, on a closed manifold. We establish existence of non-CMC weak solutions using a combination of a priori estimates for the…

We construct low regularity solutions of the vacuum Einstein constraint equations. In particular, on 3-manifolds we obtain solutions with metrics in $H^s\loc$ with $s>{3\over 2}$. The theory of maximal asymptotically Euclidean solutions of…
