A Perturbation-inspired Method of Generating Exact Solutions in General Relativity

General relativity has a small number of known, exact solutions which model astronomically relevant systems. These models are highly idealized situations. Either perturbation theory or numerical simulations are typically needed to produce more realistic models. Numerical simulations are time-consumi...
