Strong Cosmic Censorship for Solutions of the Einstein-maxwell Equations with Polarized Gowdy Symmetry

نویسنده

  • Alan D. Rendall
چکیده

A proof of strong cosmic censorship is presented for a class of solutions of the Einstein-Maxwell equations, those with polarized Gowdy symmetry. A key element of the argument is the observation that by means of a suitable choice of variables the central equations in this problem can be written in a form where they are identical to the central equations for general (i.e. non-polarized) vacuum Gowdy spacetimes. Using this it is seen that the deep results of Ringström on strong cosmic censorship in the vacuum case have implications for the Einstein-Maxwell case. Working out the geometrical meaning of these analytical results leads to the main conclusion.

Cosmic Censorship for Gowdy Spacetimes

Due to the complexity of Einstein's equations, it is often natural to study a question of interest in the framework of a restricted class of solutions. One way to impose a restriction is to consider solutions satisfying a given symmetry condition. There are many possible choices, but the present article is concerned with one particular choice, which we shall refer to as Gowdy symmetry. We begin...

Curvature Blow up on a Dense Subset of the Singularity in T -gowdy

This paper is concerned with the Einstein vacuum equations under the additional assumption of T 3-Gowdy symmetry. We prove that there is a generic set of initial data such that the corresponding solutions exhibit curvature blow up on a dense subset of the singularity. By generic, we mean a countable intersection of open sets (i.e. a Gδ set) which is also dense. Furthermore, the set of initial d...

Black Hole Collisions , Analytic Continuation , and Cosmic Censorship

Exact solutions of the Einstein-Maxwell equations that describe moving black holes in a cosmological setting are discussed with the aim of discovering the global structure and testing cosmic censorship. Continuation beyond the horizons present in these solutions is necessary in order to identify the global structure. Therefore the possibilities and methods of analytic extension of geometries ar...

Strong Cosmic Censorship in T -gowdy Spacetimes

Einstein’s vacuum equations can be viewed as an initial value problem, and given initial data there is one part of spacetime, the so-called maximal globally hyperbolic development (MGHD), which is uniquely determined up to isometry. Unfortunately, it is sometimes possible to extend the spacetime beyond the MGHD in inequivalent ways. Consequently, the initial data do not uniquely determine the s...
