Abstract/Media

To find solutions for the Cauchy problem in general relativity, one must understand the set of solutions to the Einstein constraint equations. The conformal method has proved to be a very useful tool for parametrizing this set, and it has only recently found application on initial data sets with arbitrary mean curvature. In this talk, I will outline the conformal method and describe my recent work in extending this technique to manifolds with asymptotically conformally cylindrical ends.
