The Global Nonlinear Stability of Minkowski Space for Self-Gravitating Massive Fields

by Philippe G Lefloch and Yue Ma

This book is devoted to the Einstein's field equations of general relativity for self-gravitating massive scalar fields. We formulate the initial value problem when the initial data set is a perturbation of an asymptotically flat, spacelike hypersurface in Minkowski spacetime. We then establish the existence of an Einstein development associated with this initial data set, which is proven to be an asymptotically flat and future geodesically...
