The BKL Conjectures for Spatially Homogeneous Spacetimes
arXiv:1005.4908
Abstract
We rigorously construct and control a generic class of spatially homogeneous (Bianchi VIII and Bianchi IX) vacuum spacetimes that exhibit the oscillatory BKL phenomenology. We investigate the causal structure of these spacetimes and show that there is a "particle horizon".
