Time-Periodic Solutions of the Einstein's Field Equations

In this paper, we develop a new method to find the exact solutions of the Einstein's field equations by using which we construct time-periodic solutions. The singularities of the time-periodic solutions are investigated and some new physical phenomena, such as the time-periodic event horizon, are found. The applications of these solutions in modern cosmology and general relativity are expected.

Hyperbolic mean curvature flow: Evolution of plane curves

In this paper we investigate the one-dimensional hyperbolic mean curvature flow for closed plane curves. We show that there exists a class of initial velocities such that the solution of the corresponding initial value problem exists only at a finite time interval $[0,T_{\max})$ and when $t$ goes to $T_{\max}$, the solution converges to a point. We also discuss the close relationship between the hyperbolic mean curvature flow and the equations for the evolving relativistic string in the Minkowski space-time $\mathbb{R}^{1,1}$.

The hyperbolic geometric flow on Riemann surfaces

In this paper the authors study the hyperbolic geometric flow on Riemann surfaces. This new nonlinear geometric evolution equation was recently introduced by the first two authors motivated by Einstein equation and Hamilton's Ricci flow. We prove that, for any given initial metric on ${\mathbb{R}}^{2}$ in certain class of metrics, one can always choose suitable initial velocity symmetric tensor such that the solution exists for all time, and the scalar curvature corresponding to the solution metric $g_{ij}$ keeps uniformly bounded for all time. If the initial velocity tensor does not satisfy the condition, then the solution blows up at a finite time, and the scalar curvature $R(t,x)$ goes to positive infinity as $(t,x)$ tends to the blowup points, and a flow with surgery has to be considered. The authors attempt to show that, comparing to Ricci flow, the hyperbolic geometric flow has the following advantage: the surgery technique may be replaced by choosing suitable initial velocity tensor. Some geometric properties of hyperbolic geometric flow on general open and closed Riemann surfaces are also discussed.

Dissipative Hyperbolic Geometric Flow

In this paper we introduce and study a new kind of hyperbolic geometric flows --dissipative hyperbolic geometric flow. This kind of flow is defined by a system of quasilinear wave equations with dissipative terms. Some interesting exact solutions are given, in particular, a new concept-- hyperbolic Ricci soliton is introduced and some of its geometric properties are described. We also establish the short-time existence and uniqueness theorem for the dissipative hyperbolic geometric flow, and prove the nonlinear stability of the flow defined on the Euclidean space of dimension larger than 2. Wave character of the evolving metrics and curvatures is illustrated and the nonlinear wave equations satisfied by the curvatures are derived.

Hyperbolic geometric flow (I): short-time existence and nonlinear stability

In this paper we establish the short-time existence and uniqueness theorem for hyperbolic geometric flow, and prove the nonlinear stability of hyperbolic geometric flow defined on the Euclidean space with dimension larger than 4. Wave equations satisfied by the curvatures are derived. The relation of hypergeometric flow to the Einstein equation and the Ricci flow is discussed.
