Black-hole lattices as cosmological models

E Bentivegna, T Clifton, J Durk… - … and Quantum Gravity, 2018 - iopscience.iop.org
The search for solutions of Einstein's equations representing relativistic cosmological
models with a discrete matter content has been remarkably fruitful in the last decade. In this …

Emerging spatial curvature can resolve the tension between high-redshift CMB and low-redshift distance ladder measurements of the Hubble constant

K Bolejko - Physical Review D, 2018 - APS
The measurements of the Hubble constant reveal a tension between high-redshift (CMB)
and low-redshift (distance ladder) constraints. So far neither observational systematics nor …

Luminosity distance and anisotropic sky-sampling at low redshifts: A numerical relativity study

HJ Macpherson, A Heinesen - Physical Review D, 2021 - APS
Most cosmological data analysis today relies on the Friedmann-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker
(FLRW) metric, providing the basis of the current standard cosmological model. Within this …

Einstein's Universe: Cosmological structure formation in numerical relativity

HJ Macpherson, DJ Price, PD Lasky - Physical Review D, 2019 - APS
We perform large-scale cosmological simulations that solve Einstein's equations directly via
numerical relativity. Starting with initial conditions sampled from the cosmic microwave …

A prediction for anisotropies in the nearby Hubble flow

A Heinesen, HJ Macpherson - Journal of Cosmology and …, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
We assess the dominant low-redshift anisotropic signatures in the distance-redshift relation
and redshift drift signals. We adopt general-relativistic irrotational dust models allowing for …

The averaging problem on the past null cone in inhomogeneous dust cosmologies

T Buchert, H van Elst, A Heinesen - General Relativity and Gravitation, 2023 - Springer
Cosmological models typically neglect the complicated nature of the spacetime mani-fold at
small scales in order to hypothesize idealized general relativistic solutions for describing the …

GRAMSES: a new route to general relativistic N-body simulations in cosmology. Part I. Methodology and code description

C Barrera-Hinojosa, B Li - Journal of Cosmology and …, 2020 - iopscience.iop.org
We present GRAMSES, a new pipeline for nonlinear cosmological N-body simulations in
General Relativity (GR). This code adopts the Arnowitt-Deser-Misner (ADM) formalism of …

Preheating in full general relativity

JT Giblin Jr, AJ Tishue - Physical Review D, 2019 - APS
We investigate the importance of local gravity during preheating, the nonlinear dynamics
that may be responsible for starting the process of reheating the Universe after inflation. We …

[HTML][HTML] The halo bias for number counts on the light cone from relativistic N-body simulations

F Lepori, S Schulz, J Adamek… - Journal of Cosmology and …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
We present the halo number counts and its two-point statistics, the observable angular
power spectrum, extracted for the first time from relativistic N-body simulations. The halo …

Safely smoothing spacetime: backreaction in relativistic cosmological simulations

J Adamek, C Clarkson, D Daverio… - … and Quantum Gravity, 2018 - iopscience.iop.org
A persistent theme in the study of dark energy is the question of whether it really exists or
not. It is often claimed that we are mis-calculating the cosmological model by neglecting the …
