Abstract
We compute the waves propagating on a compact 3-manifold of constant positive curvature with a non-trivial topology: the Poincaré dodecahedral space that is a plausible model of multi-connected universe. We transform the Cauchy problem to a mixed problem posed on a fundamental domain determined by the quaternionic calculus. We adopt a variational approach using a space of finite elements that is invariant under the action of the binary icosahedral group. The computation of the transient waves is validated with their spectral analysis by computing a lot of eigenvalues of the Laplace–Beltrami operator.
