摘要
Complete maximal surfaces in Generalized Robertson-Walker spacetimes obeying either the Null Convergence Condition or the Timelike Convergence Condition are studied. Uniqueness theorems that widely extend the classical Calabi-Bernstein theorem, as well as previous results On complete maximal surfaces in Robertson-Walker spacetimes, i.e. the case in which the Gauss curvature of the fiber is a constant. are given. All the entire solutions to the maximal surface differential equation in certain Generalized Robertson-Walker spacetimes are found. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
