Conical Spacetimes and Global Hyperbolicity
نویسنده
چکیده
Vickers and Wilson ([26]) have shown global hyperbolicity of the conical spacetime in the sense of well-posedness of the initial value problem for the wave equation in generalized functions. We add the aspect of metric splitting and preliminary thoughts on Cauchy hypersurfaces and causal curves. AMS Mathematics Subject Classi cation (2010): 46F30, 83C75

Global Hyperbolicity of Sliced Spaces
We show that for generic sliced spacetimes global hyperbolicity is equivalent to space completeness under the assumption that the lapse, shift and spatial metric are uniformly bounded. This leads us to the conclusion that simple sliced spaces are timelike and null geodesically complete if and only if space is a complete Riemannian manifold.
متن کاملQuantum Fields in Curved Spacetime: Non Global Hyperbolicity and Locality
We briefly review the current status of the algebraic approach to quantum field theory on globally hyperbolic spacetimes, both axiomatic – for general field theories, and constructive – for a linear Klein-Gordon model. We recall the concept of F-locality, introduced in the latter context in BS Kay: Rev. Math. Phys., Special Issue, 167-195 (1992) and explain how it can be formulated at an axioma...

Solutions of the wave equation in a space-time containing a thin cosmic string are examined in the context of non-linear generalised functions. Existence and uniqueness of solutions to the wave equation in the Colombeau algebra G is established for a conical space-time and this solution is shown to be associated to a distributional solution. A concept of generalised hyperbolicity, based on test...
متن کاملA note on causally simple and globally hyperbolic spacetimes
Given an arbitrary spacetime (M, g), we prove a simple criterion to check when many of the good properties of the time-separation (Lorentzian distance) d valid in globally hyperbolic spacetimes hold for M . Concretely, when the product P = M × R, g̃ = g + dy is causally simple, then not only M is causally simple, but also d is continuous and AvezSeifert connectedness (each two causally related e...
متن کاملSupersymmetric Spacetimes in (2+1) Ads-supergravity Models
We find a class of (2+1)-dimensional spacetimes admitting Killing spinors appropriate to (2,0) adS-supergravity. The vacuum spacetimes include anti-de Sitter (adS) space and charged extreme black holes, but there are many others, including spacetimes of arbitrarily large negative energy that have only conical singulari-ties, and the spacetimes of fractionally charged point particles. The non-va...
