Degenerate Metric Phase Boundaries
The structure of boundaries between degenerate and nondegenerate solutions of Ashtekar’s canonical reformulation of Einstein’s equations is studied. Several examples are given of such “phase boundaries” in which the metric is degenerate on one side of a null hypersurface and non-degenerate on the other side. These include portions of flat space, Schwarzschild, and plane wave solutions joined to...

Several examples are given of such \phase boundaries" in which the metric is degenerate on one side of a null hypersurface and non-degenerate on the other side.

متن کاملCausal structures and causal boundaries
We give an up-to-date perspective with a general overview of the theory of causal properties, the derived causal structures, their classification and applications, and the definition and construction of causal boundaries and of causal symmetries, mostly for Lorentzian manifolds but also in more abstract settings. PACS numbers: 04.20.Gz, 04.20.Cv, 02.40.Ky
متن کاملStructure and evolution of martensitic phase boundaries
This work examines two major aspects of martensitic phase boundaries. The first part studies numerically the deformation of thin films of shape memory alloys by using subdivision surfaces for discretization. These films have gained interest for their possible use as actuators in microscale electro-mechanical systems, specifically in a pyramid-shaped configuration. The study of such configuratio...
متن کاملStructure and phase boundaries of compressed liquid hydrogen.
We have mapped the molecular-atomic transition in liquid hydrogen using first principles molecular dynamics. We predict that a molecular phase with short-range orientational order exists at pressures above 100 GPa. The presence of this ordering and the structure emerging near the dissociation transition provide an explanation for the sharpness of the molecular-atomic crossover and the concurren...
