We show that different topologies of a space-time manifold and different signatures of its metric can be encompassed into a single Lagrangian formalism, provided one adopts the first-order (Palatini) formulation and relies on nonlinear Lagrangians, that were earlier shown to produce, in the generic case, universality of Einstein field equations and of Komar's energy-momentum complex as well. An example in Relativistic Cosmology is provided.

AbstractHeart valve fluid–structure interaction (FSI) analysis is one of the computationally challenging cases in cardiovascular fluid mechanics. The challenges include unsteady flow through a complex geometry, solid surfaces with large motion, and contact between the valve leaflets. We introduce here an isogeometric sequentially-coupled FSI (SCFSI) method that can address the challenges with an outcome of high-fidelity flow solutions. The SCFSI analysis enables dealing with the fluid and structure parts individually at different steps of the solutions sequence, and also enables using different methods or different mesh resolution levels at different steps. In the isogeometric SCFSI analysis here, the first step is a previously computed (fully) coupled Immersogeometric Analysis FSI of the heart valve with a reasonable flow solution. With the valve leaflet and arterial surface motion coming from that, we perform a new, higher-fidelity fluid mechanics computation with the space–time topology change method and isogeometric discretization. Both the immersogeometric and space–time methods are variational multiscale methods. The computation presented for a bioprosthetic heart valve demonstrates the power of the method introduced.


Two theorems are given, which show that in a geodesically complete space-time a closed and bounded part of an edgeless acausal spacelike hypersurface cannot change its topology as it evoles with time.
