  • Black Hole Formation and Stability: a Mathematical Investigation
    BULLETIN (New Series) OF THE AMERICAN MATHEMATICAL SOCIETY Volume 55, Number 1, January 2018, Pages 1–30 http://dx.doi.org/10.1090/bull/1592 Article electronically published on September 25, 2017 BLACK HOLE FORMATION AND STABILITY: A MATHEMATICAL INVESTIGATION LYDIA BIERI Abstract. The dynamics of the Einstein equations feature the formation of black holes. These are related to the presence of trapped surfaces in the spacetime manifold. The mathematical study of these phenomena has gained momentum since D. Christodoulou’s breakthrough result proving that, in the regime of pure general relativity, trapped surfaces form through the focusing of gravitational waves. (The latter were observed for the first time in 2015 by Advanced LIGO.) The proof combines new ideas from geometric analysis and nonlinear partial differential equations, and it introduces new methods to solve large data problems. These methods have many applications beyond general relativity. D. Christodoulou’s result was generalized by S. Klainerman and I. Rodnianski, and more recently by these authors and J. Luk. Here, we investigate the dynamics of the Einstein equations, focusing on these works. Finally, we address the question of stability of black holes and what has been known so far, involving recent works of many contributors. Contents 1. Introduction 1 2.

  • THE GLOBAL EXISTENCE PROBLEM in GENERAL RELATIVITY 3 Played a Vital Role As Motivation and Guide in the Development of the Results Discussed Here
    THE GLOBAL EXISTENCE PROBLEM IN GENERAL RELATIVITY LARS ANDERSSON1 Abstract. We survey some known facts and open questions concerning the global properties of 3+1 dimensional spacetimes containing a com- pact Cauchy surface. We consider spacetimes with an ℓ–dimensional Lie algebra of space–like Killing fields. For each ℓ ≤ 3, we give some basic results and conjectures on global existence and cosmic censorship. Contents 1. Introduction 1 2. The Einstein equations 3 3. Bianchi 15 4. G2 23 5. U(1) 30 6. 3+1 34 7. Concluding remarks 39 Appendix A. Basic Causality concepts 40 References 41 1. Introduction arXiv:gr-qc/9911032v4 28 Apr 2006 In this review, we will describe some results and conjectures about the global structure of solutions to the Einstein equations in 3+1 dimensions. We consider spacetimes (M,¯ g¯) with an ℓ–dimensional Lie algebra of space– like Killing fields. We may say that such spacetimes have a (local) isometry group G of dimension ℓ with the action of G generated by space–like Killing fields. For each value ℓ 3 of the dimension of the isometry group, we state the reduced field equations≤ as well as attempt to give an overview of the most important results and conjectures. We will concentrate on the vacuum case. In section 2, we present the Einstein equations and give the 3+1 decom- position into constraint and evolution equations, cf. subsection 2.2.

  • Demetrios Christodoulou Autobiography I Was Born in Athens in October 1951
    Demetrios Christodoulou Autobiography I was born in Athens in October 1951. My father Lambros was born in Alexandria to Greek parents from Cyprus who had immigrated to Egypt. My paternal grandfather, Miltiades was from Agios Theodoros and my paternal grandmother Eleni was from Choirokoitia. My mother Maria was born in Athens to a family of Greek refugees from Asia Minor. When I was a child, I used to take long walks with my father in the environs of the ancient monuments and he used to inspire me with stories from the distant past when ancient Greece had made outstanding contributions to human civilization. My paternal grandparents left Egypt and settled in Greece in the 1950's, so I also had the opportunity to listen to many wonderful stories from my grandfather about his adventures as a youth in Cyprus during the last part of the 19th century. My father used to take me to a movie theater for children which showed documentaries. I still remember how impressed I was on seeing a documentary about Einstein. A problem in Euclidean geometry was the spark which initiated in me, at the age of 14, a burning interest in mathematics and theoretical physics. Within a couple of years I became fascinated with the concepts of space and time, with Riemann's geometry and Einstein's relativity. My case was brought to the attention of Achiles Papapetrou, a Greek physicist at the Institute Henri Poincare, who in turn contacted Princeton physics professor John Wheeler, on leave in Paris at that time. So in the beginning of 1968 I came to Paris and was examined by them.

  • Lutions to Einstein's Equations with Accel
    On the future stability of cosmological so- lutions to Einstein's equations with accel- erated expansion Hans Ringstr¨om∗ Abstract. The solutions of Einstein's equations used by physicists to model the universe have a high degree of symmetry. In order to verify that they are reasonable models, it is therefore necessary to demonstrate that they are future stable under small perturba- tions of the corresponding initial data. The purpose of this contribution is to describe mathematical results that have been obtained on this topic. A question which turns out to be related concerns the topology of the universe: what limitations do the observations impose? Using methods similar to ones arising in the proof of future stability, it is possi- ble to construct solutions with arbitrary closed spatial topology. The existence of these solutions indicate that the observations might not impose any limitations at all. Mathematics Subject Classification (2010). Primary 83C05; Secondary 35Q76. Keywords. General relativity, stability of solutions, Einstein-Vlasov system. 1. Introduction In 1915, the interpretation of gravitational forces was fundamentally altered by the introduction of Einstein's general theory of relativity. The underlying math- ematical structures were not well understood at the time, and as a consequence, some of the fundamental questions have only recently been phrased in the form of mathematical problems. Since Einstein's equations are not as commonly studied in mathematics as many other equations that appear in physics, we here wish to give a brief description of their origin and of how different perspectives on them have developed since the inception of general relativity.
