A Conformal Hyperbolic Formulation of the Einstein Equations
We propose a re-formulation of the Einstein evolution equations that cleanly separates the conformal degrees of freedom and the non-conformal degrees of freedom with the latter satisfying a first order strongly hyperbolic system. The conformal degrees of freedom are taken to be determined by the choice of slicing and the initial data, and are regarded as given functions (along with the lapse an...
متن کاملHyperbolic tetrad formulation of the Einstein equations for numerical relativity
The tetrad-based equations for vacuum gravity published by Estabrook, Robinson, and Wahlquist are simplified and adapted for numerical relativity. We show that the evolution equations as partial differential equations for the Ricci rotation coefficients constitute a rather simple first-order symmetrizable hyperbolic system, not only for the Nester gauge condition on the acceleration and angular...
متن کاملConformal mappings preserving the Einstein tensor of Weyl manifolds
In this paper, we obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for a conformal mapping between two Weyl manifolds to preserve Einstein tensor. Then we prove that some basic curvature tensors of $W_n$ are preserved by such a conformal mapping if and only if the covector field of the mapping is locally a gradient. Also, we obtained the relation between the scalar curvatures of the Weyl manifolds r...

متن کاملOn the Einstein-Weyl and conformal self-duality equations
The equations governing anti-self-dual and Einstein-Weyl conformal geometries can be regarded as ‘master dispersionless systems’ in four and three dimensions respectively. Their integrability by twistor methods has been established by Penrose and Hitchin. In this note we present, in specially adapted coordinate systems, explicit forms of the corresponding equations and their Lax pairs. In parti...
