Asymptotic behaviour of curvature and matter in the Penrose limit
نویسنده
چکیده
The asymptotic behaviour of the components of the Weyl tensor and of the energy-momentum tensor in the Penrose limit is determined. In both cases a peeling-off property is found. Examples of different types of matter are provided. The expansion and shear of the congruence of null geodesics along which the Penrose limit is taken are determined. Finally, the approach to the singularity in the Penrose limit of cosmological space-times is discussed.

Gravity, Stability and Energy Conservation on the Randall-Sundrum Brane-World
We carefully investigate the gravitational perturbation of the Randall-Sundrum (RS) single braneworld solution [hep-th/9906064], based on a covariant curvature tensor formalism recently developed by us. Using this curvature formalism, it is known that the ‘electric’ part of the 5-dimensional Weyl tensor, denoted by Eμν , gives the leading order correction to the conventional Einstein equations ...
متن کاملAsymptotic behaviour of associated primes of monomial ideals with combinatorial applications
Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring and $I$ be an ideal of $R$. We say that $I$ satisfies the persistence property if $mathrm{Ass}_R(R/I^k)subseteq mathrm{Ass}_R(R/I^{k+1})$ for all positive integers $kgeq 1$, which $mathrm{Ass}_R(R/I)$ denotes the set of associated prime ideals of $I$. In this paper, we introduce a class of square-free monomial ideals in the polynomial ring $R=K[x_1,ld...
متن کاملPenrose Limits and Spacetime Singularities
We give a covariant characterisation of the Penrose plane wave limit: the plane wave profile matrix A(u) is the restriction of the null geodesic deviation matrix (curvature tensor) of the original spacetime metric to the null geodesic, evaluated in a comoving frame. We also consider the Penrose limits of spacetime singularities and show that for a large class of black hole, cosmological and nul...

متن کاملAsymptotic Analysis of the Free In-plane Vibrations of Beams with Arbitrarily Varying Curvature and Cross-section
An asymptotic analysis is carried out for the equations of free vibrations of a beam having varying curvature and cross-section. The effect of splitting the asymptotic limit for eigenvalues into two families is revealed and its connection with boundary conditions is discussed. The analysis of the properties of the asymptotic solution explains the phenomenon of transformation of mode shape with ...
