Fuchsian analysis of S2 $times$ S1 and S3 Gowdy spacetimes
The Gowdy spacetimes are vacuum solutions of Einstein's equations with two commuting Killing vectors having compact spacelike orbits with T^3, S^2xS^1 or S^3 topology. In the case of T^3 topology, Kichenassamy and Rendall have found a family of singular solutions which are asymptotically velocity dominated by construction. In the case …
