Rough solutions of the Einstein constraints on closed manifolds without near-CMC conditions

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered the conformal decomposition of Einstein's constraint equations on a closed manifold and established existence of non-CMC weak solutions using a combination of priori estimates for the individual Hamiltonian and momentum constraints, barrier constructions and fixed point techniques for the Hamiltonian constraint, together with a topological fixed-point argument for the coupled system.

String--Kaluza--Klein Cosmology

TL;DR: In this article, the authors generalize a five dimensional black hole solution of low energy effective string theory to arbitrary constant spatial curvature and obtain that way a four dimensional isotropic cosmological space time.

Manifestly gauge-invariant general relativistic perturbation theory: I. Foundations

TL;DR: In this paper, a general framework for linear cosmological perturbation is proposed for the equations of motion for the gauge-invariant observables to all orders in the late universe.

On entanglement entropy functionals in higher-derivative gravity theories

TL;DR: In this paper, the surface equation of motion for general four-derivative gravity theory is derived by minimizing the holographic entanglement entropy functional resulting from this proposed formula. But the two results do not match in their entirety.

Where Is the PdV in the First Law of Black Hole Thermodynamics

TL;DR: In this article, the first law of black hole thermodynamic properties is extended to include a discussion of pressure and volume, and a definition of volume can be used to define the critical point and the associated second order phase transition for a rotating black hole in four-dimensional space-time.
