Abstract

The asymptotic characteristic initial value problem for Einstein's vacuum field equations is treated. It is shown that C$^{\infty}$ solutions exist and are unique for C$^{\infty}$ initial values. The proof is based on Friedrich's regular conformal vacuum field equations and Rendall's method of reducing the characteristic to an ordinary initial value problem.
