Polyhomogeneous expansions close to null and spatial infinity
A study of the linearised gravitational field (spin 2 zero-rest-mass field) on a Minkowski background close to spatial infinity is done. To this purpose, a certain representation of spatial infinity in which it is depicted as a cylinder is used. A first analysis shows that the solutions generically develop a particular type of logarithmic divergence at the sets where spatial infinity touches nu...
متن کاملConformal Infinity
The notion of conformal infinity has a long history within the research in Einstein's theory of gravity. Today, "conformal infinity" is related with almost all other branches of research in general relativity, from quantisation procedures to abstract mathematical issues to numerical applications. This review article attempts to show how this concept gradually and inevitably evolved out of physi...
متن کاملAnisotropic Conformal Infinity
We generalize Penrose’s notion of conformal infinity of spacetime, to situations with anisotropic scaling. This is relevant not only for Lifshitz-type anisotropic gravity models, but also in standard general relativity and string theory, for spacetimes exhibiting a natural asymptotic anisotropy. Examples include the Lifshitz and Schrödinger spaces (proposed as AdS/CFT duals of nonrelativistic f...
متن کاملConformal treatment of infinity
In the late 1950’s F. A. E. Pirani, A. Trautman, R. K. Sachs, H. Bondi, E. T. Newman, R. Penrose and others began exploring possibilities to establish in Einstein’s nonlinear theory a notion of gravitational radiation which is covariant and not based on approximations. The proposal they finally came up with relies, however, on an idealization. The solutions to Einstein’s field equations were as...
متن کاملRegularity at space-like and null infinity
We extend Penrose’s peeling model for the asymptotic behaviour of solutions to the scalar wave equation at null infinity on asymptotically flat backgrounds, which is well understood for flat space-time, to Schwarzschild and the asymptotically simple space-times of Corvino-Schoen/Chrusciel-Delay. We combine conformal techniques and vector field methods: a naive adaptation of the “Morawetz vector...
