Spherically symmetric Anti-de Sitter-like Einstein-Yang-Mills spacetimes

The conformal field equations are used to discuss the local existence of spherically symmetric solutions to the Einstein-Yang-Mills system which behave asymptotically like the anti-de Sitter spacetime. By using a gauge based on conformally privileged curves we obtain a formulation of the problem in terms of an initial boundary value problem on which a general class of maximally dissipative boundary conditions can be discussed. The relation between these boundary conditions and the notion of mass on asymptotically anti-de Sitter spacetimes is analysed.

A conformal approach for the analysis of the non-linear stability of pure radiation cosmologies

The conformal Einstein equations for a tracefree (radiation) perfect fluid are derived in terms of the Levi-Civita connection of a conformally rescaled metric. These equations are used to provide a non-linear stability result for de Sitter-like tracefree (radiation) perfect fluid Friedman-Lema\^ıtre-Robertson-Walker cosmological models. The solutions thus obtained exist globally towards the future and are future geodesically complete.

A stability result for purely radiative spacetimes

An existence and stability result for a class of purely radiative vacuum spacetimes arising from hyperboloidal data is given. This result generalises semiglobal existence results for Minkowski-like spacetimes to the case where the reference solution contains gravitational radiation. The analysis makes use of the extended conformal field equations and a gauge based on conformal geodesics so that the location and structure of the conformal boundary of the perturbed solutions is known a priori.

On de Sitter-like and Minkowski-like space-times

Friedrich's proofs for the global existence results of de Sitter-like space-times and of semi-global existence of Minkowski-like space-times [Comm. Math. Phys. \textbf{107}, 587 (1986)] are re-examined and discussed, making use of the extended conformal field equations and a gauge based on conformal geodesics. In this gauge the location of the conformal boundary of the space-times is known \emph{a priori} once the initial data has been prescribed. Thus it provides an analysis which is conceptually and calculationally simpler.
