摘要
In the previous paper(see Li and Zhu(2014)), for a characteristic problem with not necessarily small initial data given on a complete null cone decaying like that in the work of the stability of Minkowski spacetime by Christodoulou and Klainerman(1993), we proved the local existence in retarded time, which means the solution to the vacuum Einstein equations exists in a uniform future neighborhood, while the global existence in retarded time is the weak cosmic censorship conjecture. In this paper, we prove that the local existence in retarded time still holds when the data is assumed to decay slower, like that in Bieri's work(2007)on the extension to the stability of Minkowski spacetime. Such decay guarantees the existence of the limit of the Hawking mass on the initial null cone, when approaching to infinity, in an optimal way.
