类Bondi规范中广义相对论的双曲性

Hyperbolicity of General Relativity in Bondi-like gauges

Thanasis Giannakopoulos, David Hilditch, Miguel Zilhao

摘要:

广义相对论的类邦迪(单零)特征公式被用于渐近平坦时空和反德西特时空的数值计算。然而,由此产生的偏微分方程系统的适定性仍然是一个悬而未决的问题。这个问题的答案会影响准确性,并可能影响基于这些公式的数值研究得出的结论的可靠性。数值逼近可以收敛到连续极限,只有适定的系统,为初值问题的$L^2$规范,这是其特征在于强双曲性。我们发现,由于一个共同的病理结构,从上述配方所产生的系统,但只有弱双曲。我们提出的玩具模型的数值试验,证明了这种缺点在实践中的特点的初始边界值问题的后果。与替代规范,我们的模型问题可能是适定性的,我们表明,收敛可能会恢复。最后,我们研究了一个模型的柯西特征匹配模型的适定性,其中模型对称和弱双曲系统通过接口进行通信,后者在特征切片上扮演GR在Bondi规范中的角色。我们发现,由于与这两个系统相关的规范的不兼容性,复合问题并不自然承认能量估计。

英文摘要:

Bondi-like (single-null) characteristic formulations of general relativity are used for numerical work in both asymptotically flat and anti-de Sitter spacetimes. Well-posedness of the resulting systems of partial differential equations, however, remains an open question. The answer to this question affects accuracy, and potentially the reliability of conclusions drawn from numerical studies based on such formulations. A numerical approximation can converge to the continuum limit only for well-posed systems; for the initial value problem in the $L^2$ norm this is characterized by strong hyperbolicity. We find that, due to a shared pathological structure, the systems arising from the aforementioned formulations are however only weakly hyperbolic. We present numerical tests for toy models that demonstrate the consequence of this shortcoming in practice for the characteristic initial boundary value problem. Working with alternative norms in which our model problems may be well-posed we show that convergence may be recovered. Finally we examine well-posedness of a model for Cauchy-Characteristic-Matching in which model symmetric and weakly hyperbolic systems communicate through an interface, with the latter playing the role of GR in Bondi gauge on characteristic slices. We find that, due to the incompatibility of the norms associated with the two systems, the composite problem does not naturally admit energy estimates.
