Event Information:

In this thesis we present a series of studies in numerical relativity investigating stability, hyperbolicity and critical phenomena. The first part of our work is dedicated to the study of d-stars, hypothetical objects consisting of a boson star and global monopole minimally or nonminimally coupled to the general relativistic gravitational field. The space of solutions for these systems is large and, for a wide range of coupling parameters, exhibits ground state solutions with asymptotic shells of bosonic matter.
