Isotropic Cosmological Singularities Ii. the Einstein-vlasov System
نویسنده
چکیده
We consider the conformal Einstein equations for massless colli-sionless gas cosmologies which admit an isotropic singularity. After developing the general theory, we restrict to spatially-homogeneous cosmologies. We show that the Cauchy problem for these equations is well-posed with data consisting of the limiting particle distribution function at the singularity.

Cosmological Solution to Einstein-Vlasov System
In this paper the Einstein-Vlasov system of self-consistent field equations is used to construct a cosmological model. A solution is found for a homogeneous isotropic space-time with positive curvature (R × S 3 topology). For the Universe consisting of massless particles the equation for R(t) is solved analytically.
متن کاملIsotropization of solutions of the Einstein-Vlasov system with Bianchi V symmetry
Using the methods developed for different Bianchi class A cosmological models we treat the simplest Bianchi class B model, namely Bianchi type V. The future non-linear stability for solutions of the Einstein-Vlasov system is demonstrated and it is shown that these solutions are asymptotically stable to the Milne solution. Within the isotropic solutions of the Einstein-Vlasov system the spatiall...
متن کاملIsotropic Cosmological Singularities : Other matter models
Isotropic cosmological singularities are singularities which can be removed by rescaling the metric. In some cases already studied ([2], [1]) existence and uniqueness of cosmological models with data at the sin-gularity has been established. These were cosmologies with, as source, either perfect fluids with linear equations of state or massless, collision-less particles. In this article we cons...
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 کاملKinetic theory and the Einstein-Vlasov system
The Vlasov-Einstein equations are a closed self-consistent collision-less system of kinetic equations. They were introduced to model the dynamics of self gravitating multi-particles system. The particles could be a neutral gas, plasma, interstellar dust, stars, galaxies or even clusters of galaxies. In 1990 Rendall and Rein initiated the mathematical study of the Einstein-Vlasov system. Since t...
