Numerical Calculation of Conformally Smooth Hyperboloidal Data

چکیده
This is the third paper in a series describing a numerical implementation of the conformal Einstein equation. This paper describes a scheme to calculate (three) dimensional data for the conformal field equations from a set of free functions. The actual implementation depends on the topology of the spacetime. We discuss the implementation and exemplary calculations for data leading to spacetimes with one spherical null infinity (asymptotically Minkowski) and for data leading to spacetimes with two toroidal null infinities (asymptotically A3). We also outline the (technical) modifications of the implementation needed to calculate data for spacetimes with two and more spherical null infinities (asymptotically Schwarzschild and asymptotically multiple black holes).

متن کاملConstruction of Hyperboloidal Initial Data
Let (M,g,Ω) be the conformal rescaling of a 3+1 dimensional vacuum spacetime (M̃, g̃), with g = Ωg̃, where Ω is a smooth function on M vanishing on the boundary ∂M. If M has smooth null boundary I , with connected components of topology S2×R, it follows that the Weyl tensor of (M,g) vanishes on I . From this follows peeling properties for (M̃, g̃). This picture of isolated systems in general relativ...
متن کاملAn axisymmetric evolution code for the Einstein equations on hyperboloidal slices
We present the first stable dynamical numerical evolutions of the Einstein equations in terms of a conformally rescaled metric on hyperboloidal hypersurfaces extending to future null infinity. Axisymmetry is imposed in order to reduce the computational cost. The formulation is based on an earlier axisymmetric evolution scheme, adapted to time slices of constant mean curvature. Ideas from a prev...
متن کاملCalculating initial data for the conformal Einstein equations by pseudo-spectral methods
We present a numerical scheme for determining hyperboloidal initial data sets for the conformal field equations by using pseudo-spectral methods. This problem is split into two parts. The first step is the determination of a suitable conformal factor which transforms from an initial data set in physical space-time to a hyperboloidal hypersurface in the ambient conformal manifold. This is achiev...
متن کاملAsymptotically Simple Solutions of the Vacuum Einstein Equations in Even Dimensions
We show that a set of conformally invariant equations derived from the Fefferman-Graham tensor can be used to construct global solutions of vacuum Einstein equations, in all even dimensions. This gives, in particular, a new, simple proof of Friedrich’s result on the future hyperboloidal stability of Minkowski spacetime, and extends its validity to even dimensions.
