abstract
The main purpose of this article is to provide a guide to theorems on global properties of solutions to the Einstein--Vlasov system. This system couples Einstein's equations to a kinetic matter model. Kinetic theory has been an important field of research during several decades in which the main focus has been on non-relativistic and special relativistic physics, i.e., to model the dynamics of neutral gases, plasmas, and Newtonian self-gravitating systems. In 1990, Rendall and Rein initiated a mathematical study of the Einstein--Vlasov system. Since then many theorems on global properties of solutions to this system have been established.

Steering a warp drive without exotic matter
An accelerating positive-energy warp drive is constructed by matching a flat cavity to a Kinnersley photon rocket, obeying the derived control law −ṁ ≥ 3m|a| and needing no exotic matter.
