A numerical method that excises the outer computational boundary along the ingoing light cone makes boundary conditions unnecessary, at the cost of limiting evolution to about one light-crossing time of the initial grid.

abstract
This talk reports on the status of an approach to the numerical study of isolated systems with the conformal field equations. We first describe the algorithms used in a code which has been developed at AEI in the last years, and discuss a milestone result obtained by Huebner. Then we present more recent results as examples to sketch the problems we face in the conformal approach to numerical relativity and outline a possible roadmap toward making this approach a practical tool.

Excision and avoiding the use of boundary conditions in numerical relativity
A numerical method that excises the outer computational boundary along the ingoing light cone makes boundary conditions unnecessary, at the cost of limiting evolution to about one light-crossing time of the initial grid.
