Hunting local Mixmaster dynamics in spatially inhomogeneous cosmologies
Beverly K Berger
Show affiliationsHeuristic arguments and numerical simulations support the Belinskii, Khalatnikov and Lifshitz (BKL) claim that the approach to the singularity in generic gravitational collapse is characterized by local Mixmaster dynamics (LMD). Here, one way to identify LMD in collapsing spatially inhomogeneous cosmologies is explored. By writing the metric of one spacetime in the standard variables of another, signatures for LMD may be found. Such signatures for the dynamics of spatially homogeneous Mixmaster models in the variables of U(1)-symmetric cosmologies are reviewed. Similar constructions for U(1)-symmetric spacetimes in terms of the dynamics of generic T2-symmetric spacetime are presented.
