Project description
The main objective of this research proposal is to reformulate the Einstein field equations as a first order system in the Ricco rotation coeffients and to apply the Karlhede algorithm, in combination with related invariant approaches, to obtain a complete integration for specific families of perfect fluid models, wich are possibly relevant for atrofysics and cosmology.
