Poincare, Relativity, Billiards and Symmetry
Thibault Damour
This review is made of two parts which are related to Poincaré in different ways. The first part reviews the work of Poincaré on the Theory of (Special) Relativity. One emphasizes…
Cosmological Singularities, Billiards and Lorentzian Kac-Moody Algebras
Thibault Damour
The structure of the general, inhomogeneous solution of (bosonic) Einstein-matter systems in the vicinity of a cosmological singularity is considered. We review the proof (based on…
Eleven dimensional supergravity and the E10/KE10 sigma-model at low A9 levels
T. Damour, H. Nicolai
Recently, the concept of a nonlinear sigma-model over a coset space G/H was generalized to the case where the group G is an infinite-dimensional Kac-Moody group, and H its (formal)…
Varying Constants
Thibault Damour
We review some string-inspired theoretical models which incorporate a correlated spacetime variation of coupling constants while remaining naturally compatible both with phenomenol…
Kasner-like behaviour for subcritical Einstein-matter systems
Thibault Damour, Marc Henneaux, Alan D. Rendall +1
Confirming previous heuristic analyses à la Belinskii-Khalatnikov-Lifshitz, it is rigorously proven that certain ``subcritical'' Einstein-matter systems exhibit a monotone, general…
Detecting Binary Black Holes With Efficient and Reliable Templates
T. Damour, B. R. Iyer, B. S. Sathyaprakash
Detecting binary black holes in interferometer data requires an accurate knowledge of the orbital phase evolution of the system. From the point of view of data analysis one also ne…
