Dirac fields in LRS III spacetimes: a dynamical systems analysis

Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Abstract: Within the $1+1+2$ covariant formalism, we investigate Locally Rotationally Symmetric (LRS) class III spacetimes sourced by a self-gravitating Dirac field expressed in polar form. By recasting the covariant field equations into an autonomous dynamical system, we perform a phase-space analysis of their solutions. We show that the cosmological evolution asymptotically converges to a contracting Bianchi I spacetime, a result also supported by numerical integrations of the system.
