Evolution of a periodic eight-black-hole lattice in numerical relativity
The idea of black-hole lattices as models for the large-scale structure of
the universe has been under scrutiny for several decades, and some of the
properties of these systems have been elucidated recently in the context of the
problem of cosmological backreaction. The complete, three-dimensional and fully
relativistic evolution of these system has, however, never been tackled. We
explicitly construct the first of these solutions by numerically integrating
Einstein's equation in the case of an eight-black-hole lattice with the
topology of S3.Comment: 21 pages, 13 figures. Corrected and clarified discussio
