A Peek Outside Our Universe [PDF]
Symmetry, 2022 According to general relativity (GR), a universe with a cosmological constant Λ, like ours, is trapped inside an event horizon, r<3/Λ. What is outside? We show, using Israel (1967) junction conditions, that there could be a different universe outside. Our universe looks like a black hole for an outside observer. Outgoing radial null geodesics cannot

Theoretical Computer Science, 2010 This paper studies peek arc consistency, a reasoning technique that extends the well-known arc consistency technique for constraint satisfaction. In contrast to other more costly extensions of arc consistency that have been studied in the literature, peek arc consistency requires only linear space and quadratic time and can be parallelized in a ...
