Project PTDC/MAT-ANA/1275/2014
Recent paper, published in Physical Review Letters as an Editors' Suggestion and seleted for a Physics Viewpoint. See also the article in physicsworld.com and this press release.
Call for undergraduate grant applications was open until January 5, 2016. Check the details.
The main goal of the project is the study of global properties of solutions of the Einstein equations, especially in what concerns cosmic censorship and the formation of singularities in general relativity. This requires the use of techniques of geometry and analysis, particularly hyperbolic partial differential equations.
