Discontinuities In The Riemann Curvature

Scientific paper

This paper reports on and summarizes some recent progress on gravitational shocks, i.e., discontinuities in the Riemann curvature tensor. It is shown how the constraint equations play a crucial rôle in determining the nature and propagation of the shocks. Existence results are stated and are illustrated by some examples from numerical relativity.
