The integration of the Einstein equations split into the solution of constraints on an initial space like 3 - manifold, an essentially elliptic system, and a system which will describe the dynamical evolution, modulo a choice of gauge. We…
We show that, given an arbitrary shift, the lapse $N$ can be chosen so that the extrinsic curvature $K$ of the space slices with metric $\overline g$ in arbitrary coordinates of a solution of Einstein's equations satisfies a quasi-linear…
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…
The Einstein evolution equations are studied in a gauge given by a combination of the constant mean curvature and spatial harmonic coordinate conditions. This leads to a coupled quasilinear elliptic--hyperbolic system of evolution…
We review curvature-based hyperbolic forms of the evolution part of the Cauchy problem of General Relativity that we have obtained recently. We emphasize first order symmetrizable hyperbolic systems possessing only physical characteristics.
The 3+1 Hamiltonian formulation in the gauge $D_tN=-K$ on the lapse function fixes the direction of time associated with the trace $K$ of the extrinsic curvature tensor. The Hamiltonian equations hereby become hyperbolic. We study this new…
We study inhomogeneous non-strictly hyperbolic systems of two equations, which are a formal generalization of the transformed one-dimensional Euler-Poisson equations. For such systems, a complete classification of the behavior of the…
We find a one-parameter family of variables which recast the 3+1 Einstein equations into first-order symmetric-hyperbolic form for any fixed choice of gauge. Hyperbolicity considerations lead us to a redefinition of the lapse in terms of an…
We establish a variant, which has the advantage of introducing only physical characteristics, of the symmetric quasi linear first order system given by H.\ Friedrich for the evolution equations of gravitating fluid bodies in General…
We discuss several explicitly causal hyperbolic formulations of Einstein's dynamical 3+1 equations in a coherent way, emphasizing throughout the fundamental role of the ``slicing function,'' $\alpha$---the quantity that relates the lapse…
A class of non-strictly hyperbolic systems of quasilinear equations with oscillatory solutions of the Cauchy problem, globally smooth in time in some open neighborhood of the zero stationary state, is found. For such systems, the period of…
It is shown that a spacetime with collisionless matter evolving from data on a compact Cauchy surface with hyperbolic symmetry can be globally covered by compact hypersurfaces on which the mean curvature is constant and by compact…
The paper introduces a method to solve inverse problems for hyperbolic systems where the leading order terms are non-linear. We apply the method to the coupled Einstein-scalar field equations and study the question whether the structure of…
First-order hyperbolic systems are promising as a basis for numerical integration of Einstein's equations. In previous work, the lapse and shift have typically not been considered part of the hyperbolic system and have been prescribed…
We analyse an algorithm of transition between Cauchy problems for second-order wave equations and first-order symmetric hyperbolic systems in case the coefficients as well as the data are non-smooth, even allowing for regularity below the…
This paper studies the Cauchy problem for variable coefficient weakly hyperbolic first order systems of partial differential operators. The hyperbolicity assumption is that for each $t, x$ the principal symbol is hyperbolic. No hypothesis…
In this article, it is shown how the extended conformal Einstein field equations and a gauge based on the properties of conformal geodesics can be used to analyse the non-linear stability of de Sitter-like spacetimes with spatial sections…
We construct globally hyperbolic spacetimes such that each slice $\{t=t_0\}$ of the universal time $t$ is a model space of constant curvature $k(t_0)$ which may not only vary with $t_0\in\mathbb{R}$ but also change its sign. The metric is…
We study the hyperbolic version of the Prandtl system derived from the hyperbolic Navier-Stokes system with no-slip boundary condition. Compared to the classical Prandtl system, the quasi-linear terms in the hyperbolic Prandtl equation…
The Cauchy problem for a quasilinear system of hyperbolic-parabolic equations is addressed with the method of linearization and fixed point. Coupling between the hyperbolic and parabolic variables is allowed in the linearization and we do…
