Abstract

I will introduce the stability problem for spacetimes from the initial value formulation perspective in general relativity. After introducing some notions on how to quantitatively characterize (in)stability, I will present a result for a class of spacetimes called gravitational solitons which exhibit slower decay compared to black holes. This is joint work with Hari Kunduri (McMaster University).
