Abstract:
In this paper, we classify the vacuum constraint equations of General Relativity
using the representation theory of classical groups. We also provide general
solutions for the differential equations of each class and prove vanishing
(nonexistence) theorems for these solutions using the Bochner technique,
which is an important tool in Geometric Analysis.
Keywords:
Riemannian manifold, pointwise orthogonal decomposition, general relativistic constraint equations.
