Corvino's construction using Brill waves
Domenico Giulini, Gustav Holzegel
For two-black-hole time-symmetric initial data we consider the Corvino construction of gluing an exact Schwarzschild end. We propose to do this by using Brill waves. We address the…
Close encounters of black holes
Domenico Giulini
This is an introduction into the problem of how to set up black hole initial-data for the matter-free field equations of General Relativity. The approach is semi-pedagogical and ad…
Classical Analysis of the van Dam - Veltman Discontinuity
Matteo Carrera, Domenico Giulini
We consider the classical theory of a gravitational field with spin 2 and non-vanishing (Pauli-Fierz) mass in flat spacetime, coupled to electromagnetism and point particles. We es…
The Group of Large Diffeomorphisms in General Relativity
Domenico Giulini
We investigate the group of large diffeomorphisms fixing a frame at a point for general closed 3-manifolds. We derive some general structural properties of these groups which relat…
On the configuration space topology in general relativity
Domenico Giulini
The configuration-space topology in canonical General Relativity depends on the choice of the initial data 3-manifold. If the latter is represented as a connected sum of prime 3-ma…
