Oscillatory singularities in Bianchi models with magnetic fields

Stefan Liebscher, Alan D. Rendall, Sophonie Blaise Tchapnda

An idea which has been around in general relativity for more than forty years is that in the approach to a big bang singularity solutions of the Einstein equations can be approxima…

On the spherically symmetric Einstein-Yang-Mills-Higgs equations in Bondi coordinates

Calvin Tadmon, Sophonie Blaise Tchapnda

We revisit and generalize, to the Einstein-Yang-Mills-Higgs system, previous results of D. Christodoulou and D. Chae concerning global solutions for the Einstein-scalar field and t…

Plane-symmetric spacetimes with positive cosmological constant. The case of stiff fluids

Philippe G. LeFloch, Sophonie B. Tchapnda

We consider plane-symmetric spacetimes satisfying Einstein's field equations with positive cosmological constant, when the matter is a fluid whose pressure is equal to its mass-ene…

The plane symmetric Einstein-dust system with positive cosmological constant

S. B. Tchapnda

The Einstein equations with a positive cosmological constant are coupled to the pressureless perfect fluid matter in plane symmetry. Under suitable restrictions on the initial data…

On surface-symmetric spacetimes with collisionless and charged matter

Sophonie Blaise Tchapnda

Some future global properties of cosmological solutions for the Einstein-Vlasov-Maxwell system with surface symmetry are presented. Global existence is proved, the homogeneous spac…

Structure of solutions near the initial singularity for the surface-symmetric Einstein-Vlasov system

Sophonie Blaise Tchapnda

Results on the behaviour in the past time direction of cosmological models with collisionless matter and a cosmological constant are presented. It is shown that under the assum…
