On smoothness of timelike maximal cylinders in three dimensional vacuum spacetimes
Nguyen, Luc · Tian, Gang
Original · EN
We show that timelike maximal cylinders in ¹ ⁺ ² always develop singularities in finite time and that, infinitesimally at a generic singularity, their time slices are evolved by a rigid motion or a self-similar motion. We also prove a mild generalization in non-flat backgrounds.
