The hyperbolic Ernst--Maxwell equations in a triangular domain

arXiv:1811.10473 · doi:10.1088/1361-6544/ab4e47

Abstract

In a recent paper, we applied Riemann--Hilbert techniques to analyze the Goursat problem for the hyperbolic Ernst equation, which describes the interaction of two colliding gravitational plane waves. Here we generalize this approach to colliding electromagnetic plane waves in Einstein--Maxwell theory.
