My Work
I work in the field of numerical general relativity. More precisely, I investigate the global properties of cosmological solutions of Einstein's field equations by means of numerical methods. Before, I have also contributed to the so called binary black hole problem in numerical relativity. More details can be found in my publications and in my Diploma and PhD thesis (see below).

Keywords: General Relativity, Cosmology, Cauchy Problem, Strong Cosmic Censorship, BKL-Conjecture, Cosmic No-Hair, Conformal Field Equations, Differential Geometry and Topology, Partial Differential Equations, Numerical Methods.
