Time: 2016-11-8& 2016-11-10, 9:30-11:30

Place:Room 1518, School of Mathematical Sciences 

Detail: A variety of mathematical issues associated with solving Einstein's equation numerically will be discussed including, symmetric hyperbolic formulations of the equation, appropriate gauge (i.e. coordinate) conditions, constraint damping mechanisms, boundary conditions, etc.  Special problems that arise in finding numerical solutions for binary black hole space-times will also be discussed.
