Journal ArticleDOI
Spacetime perspective of Schwarzschild lensing
TL;DR: In this article, an exact lens equation without reference to a background spacetime is given for the case of Schwarzschild spacetime, where the light rays are geodesics of the background with sharp bending in the lens plane.
Journal ArticleDOI
The complete spectrum of the area from recoupling theory in loop quantum gravity
TL;DR: In this article, the complete spectrum of the area operator in the loop representation of quantum gravity was derived using recoupling theory, which does not include the degenerate sector.
Journal ArticleDOI
First-order symmetric hyperbolic Einstein equations with arbitrary fixed gauge.
Simonetta Frittelli,Oscar Reula +1 more
TL;DR: A one-parameter family of variables is found which recast the 3+1 Einstein equations into first-order symmetric-hyperbolic form for any fixed choice of gauge.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the Newtonian limit of general relativity
Simonetta Frittelli,Oscar Reula +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that given a Newtonian solution, there exist continuous one-parameter families of solutions to the full Einstein's equations, where the parameter being the inverse of the speed of light.
Journal ArticleDOI
GR via characteristic surfaces
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reformulate the Einstein equations as equations for families of surfaces on a four-manifold, which eventually become characteristic surfaces for an Einstein metric (with or without sources).
