Hyperbolicity of the 3 + 1 system of einstein equations

TLDR
In this paper, a hyperbolic system from the 3+1 system of Einstein equations with zero shift was obtained by combining the evolution equations with the constraints, and the lapse was chosen by a suitable choice of the lapse, which in a natural way is connected to the space metric.
Abstract
By a suitable choice of the lapse, which in a natural way is connected to the space metric, we obtain a hyperbolic system from the 3+1 system of Einstein equations with zero shift; this is accomplished by combining the evolution equations with the constraints.

Numerical relativity and compact binaries

TL;DR: Numerical relativity is the most promising tool for theoretically modeling the inspiral and coalescence of neutron star and black hole binaries, which, in turn, are among the promising sources of gravitational radiation for future detection by gravitational wave observatories as mentioned in this paper.

Well-posed quasi-linear second-order hyperbolic systems with applications to nonlinear elastodynamics and general relativity

TL;DR: In this paper, the existence, uniqueness and well-posedness for a general class of quasi-linear hyperbolic evolution equations on a short time interval are established, which are applied to second-order systems on IR, whose solutions lie in the Sobolev space.
