We investigate the local non--linear dynamics of irrotational dust with vanishing magnetic part of the Weyl tensor, $H_{ab}$. Once coded in the initial conditions, this dynamical restriction is respected by the relativistic evolution…

In an irrotational dust universe, the locally free gravitational field is covariantly described by the gravito-electric and gravito-magnetic tensors $E_{ab}$ and $H_{ab}$. In Newtonian theory, $H_{ab}=0$ and $E_{ab}$ is the tidal tensor.…

We present results on the non-linear dynamics of inhomogeneous cosmological models with irrotational dust and a positive cosmological constant, considering, in particular, a wide class with vanishing magnetic Weyl tensor. For those patches…

One of the necessary covariant conditions for gravitational radiation is the vanishing of the divergence of the magnetic Weyl tensor H_{ab}, while H_{ab} itself is nonzero. We complete a recent analysis by showing that in irrotational dust…

Gravity waves in irrotational dust spacetimes are characterised by nonzero magnetic Weyl tensor $H_{ab}$. In the linearised theory, the divergence of $H_{ab}$ is set to zero. Recently Lesame et al. [Phys. Rev. D {\bf 53}, 738 (1996)]…

All spacetimes for an irrotational collisionless fluid with a purely electric Weyl tensor, with spacetime curvature determined by the exact Einstein field equations, are shown to be integrable. These solutions include the relativistic…

We investigate the stability of a spatially homogeneous and isotropic non-singular cosmological model. We show that the complete set of independent perturbations (the electric part of the perturbed Weyl tensor and the perturbed shear) are…

In a paper by Maartens, Lesame and Ellis (Class. Quant. Grav. 15, 1005) it was shown that irrotational dust solutions with vanishing electric part of the Weyl tensor are subject to severe integrability conditions and it was conjectured that…

For irrotational dust the shear tensor is consistently diagonalizable with its covariant time derivative: $\sigma_{ab}=0=\dot{\sigma}_{ab},\; a\neq b$, if and only if the divergence of the magnetic part of the Weyl tensor vanishes: $div~H =…

The non--linear dynamics of cosmological perturbations of an irrotational collisionless fluid is analyzed within General Relativity. Relativistic and Newtonian solutions are compared, stressing the different role of boundary conditions in…

We investigate a class of horizonless solutions in Einstein-Weyl gravity, corresponding to the so-called attractive naked singularities of the (-2,2) type. In contrast to General Relativity, where naked singularities are generically…

We study non-perturbative instabilities of AdS spacetime in General Relativity with a cosmological constant in arbitrary dimensions. In this simple setup we explicitly construct a class of gravitational instantons generalizing Witten's…

In this article, we present a gravitational collapse null dust solution of the Einstein field equations. The spacetime is regular everywhere except on the symmetry axis where it possesses a naked curvature singularity, and admits one…

We investigate the gravitational collapse of a homogeneous dust cloud in the Shtanov Sahni braneworld model, which incorporates an extra timelike dimension. The interior of the collapsing configuration is modeled by a Friedmann Lemaitre…

We study the asymptotic stability of de Sitter spacetime with respect to non-linear perturbations, by considering second order perturbations of a flat Robertson-Walker universe with dust and a positive cosmological constant. Using the…

Stability of the Einstein static universe versus the linear scalar, vector and tensor perturbations is investigated in the context of deformed Ho\v{r}ava-Lifshitz cosmology inspired by entropic force scenario. A general stability condition…

The loop quantum gravitational collapse of the dust ball in presence of positive cosmological constant is investigated within the Oppenheimer-Snyder collapse scenario. The dust ball interior is described within the framework of loop quantum…

We numerically study the dynamics of an imploding hollow cylinder composed of dust. Since there is no cylindrical black hole in 4-dimensional spacetime with physically reasonable energy conditions, a collapsed dust cylinder involves a naked…

Observational evidence suggests that the large scale dynamics of the universe is presently dominated by dark energy, meaning a non-luminous cosmological constituent with a negative value of the pressure to density ratio $w=P/\rho$, which…

We investigate the existence of inhomogeneous exact solutions in Weyl Integrable theory with a matter source. In particular, we consider the existence of a dust fluid source while for the underlying geometry we assume a line element which…
