چکیده
The dynamics of a class of cosmological models with collisionless matter and four Killing vectors is studied in detail and compared with that of corresponding perfect fluid models. In many cases it is possible to identify asymptotic states of the spacetimes near the singularity or in a phase of unlimited expansion. Bianchi type II models show oscillatory behaviour near the initial singularity which is, however, simpler than that of the

Dynamics of spatially homogeneous locally rotationally symmetric solutions of the Einstein-Vlasov equations
The dynamics of the Einstein-Vlasov equations for a class of cosmological models with four Killing vectors is discussed in the case of massive particles. It is shown that in all models analysed the solutions with massive particles are asymptotic to solutions with massless particles at early times. It is also shown that in Bianchi types I and II the solutions with massive particles are asymptoti...
متن کاملDynamics of the spatially homogeneous Bianchi type I Einstein-Vlasov equations
We investigate the dynamics of spatially homogeneous solutions of the EinsteinVlasov equations with Bianchi type I symmetry by using dynamical systems methods. All models are forever expanding and isotropize toward the future; toward the past there exists a singularity. We identify and describe all possible past asymptotic states; in particular, on the past attractor set we establish the existe...
متن کاملThe Einstein-Vlasov system
Rigorous results on solutions of the Einstein-Vlasov system are surveyed. After an introduction to this system of equations and the reasons for studying it, a general discussion of various classes of solutions is given. The emphasis is on presenting important conceptual ideas, while avoiding entering into technical details. Topics covered include spatially homogenous models, static solutions, s...
متن کاملThe Einstein-vlasov System with a Scalar Field
We study the Einstein-Vlasov system coupled to a nonlinear scalar field with a nonnegative potential in locally spatially homogeneous spacetime, as an expanding cosmological model. It is shown that solutions of this system exist globally in time. When the potential of the scalar field is of an exponential form, the cosmological model corresponds to accelerated expansion. The Einstein-Vlasov sys...
متن کاملAsymptotic Behaviour of the Einstein-vlasov System with a Positive Cosmological Constant
We study locally spatially homogeneous solutions of the EinsteinVlasov system with a positive cosmological constant. First the global existence of solutions of this system and the casual geodesic completeness are shown. Then the asymptotic behaviour of solutions in the future time is investigated in various aspects.
