LOCAL EXISTENCE AND CONTINUATION CRITERIA FOR SOLUTIONS OF THE EINSTEIN–VLASOV-SCALAR FIELD SYSTEM WITH SURFACE SYMMETRY

LOCAL EXISTENCE AND CONTINUATION CRITERIA FOR SOLUTIONS OF THE EINSTEIN–VLASOV-SCALAR FIELD SYSTEM WITH SURFACE SYMMETRY

We prove in the cases of spherical, plane and hyperbolic symmetry a local in time existence theorem and continuation criteria for cosmological solutions of the Einstein–Vlasov-scalar field system, with the sources generated by a distribution function and a scalar field, subject to the Vlasov and wave equations respectively. This system …
