Regge calculus models of closed lattice universes
This paper examines the behavior of closed ``lattice universes'' wherein masses are distributed in a regular lattice on the Cauchy surfaces of closed vacuum universes. Such universes are approximated using a form of Regge calculus originally developed by Collins and Williams to model closed Friedmann-Lema\^{\i}tre-Robertson-Walker universes. We consider two types …
